Breaking Bad

Are you tempting me with spoilers? I'm not reading anything until I'm caught up. Don't worry...The way we are going it's not going to take long.

Not exactly spoilers, just cast interviews, although some don't show up until later seasons or even not until S5 so I guess you should stay away.....

I'm up to the part where Walt arranges for the Meth Lab/Recreational vehicle to be destroyed.

Ha! I just found out that I took Ben to a Breaking Bad site that you left off the list, Bman. In season 3, Jesse and his girlfriend went to the Georgia O'Keefe museum in Santa Fe and stood looking at just the pictures I saw. Jesse and I agreed that the ones with the animal skulls and flowers are cool...and some of hers, not so much. But I was glad I had gotten a chance to see it.

I am now on Season 4, ep. 2

Cool ! I remember that scene now. Of course one of Jessie's favorite TV shows is Ice Road Truckers, so he and I are on the same page there....

Wish I had gone to the museum but I'll do it on the next trip.

Bad Bath Salts... Yeah, I'm gonna order some of that and put it under the Xmas Tree. :P

Zooming right along, I am into the 4th season now. Left without a cook, Gus lets Jesse and Walter live...but for how long?
Well, up to S.4 episode 5. Everyone still alive.


I'm not too worried. If there is one founding principle of this show it is "Walter survives. "

No spoilers...

Fascinating stuff. I just saw the episode where the brother in law is begrudgingly giving props to the dead lad assistant he thinks is Heisenberg. Calls him a genius. Walter can't let that go unremarked upon. And so he plants that seed of doubt and the investigation continues. The wife's expression is priceless.

I'm up to Season 4-ep 10. They just took Jesse south to teach the Cartel how to "cook" Walter's recipe.

Spoiler !

That doesn't turn out so well for the cartel.

I just finished season 4. The very last thing we see makes me wonder about Walter.

Cranston To Judge Walter White Look-A-Like Contest Here
By Adrian Gomez / Asst. Arts Editor, Reel NM on Fri, Nov 30, 2012


Now’s your chance to look like Walter White.

White, played by actor Bryan Cranston, has captivated imaginations as the teacher-turned-mastermind meth dealer on AMC’s “Breaking Bad” for the past five seasons.

Cranston will be the guest on the 100th episode of “The After After Party with Steven Michael Quezada” on Tuesday at the YDI Wool Warehouse. The actor will also judge a Walter White look-a-like contest on the show.


If you go
WHAT: “The After After Party with Steven Michael Quezada”
WHEN: 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4; contest begins at 5:30 p.m.
WHERE: YDI Wool Warehouse, 518 First NW
HOW MUCH: Free


“All of this was Bryan’s idea,” said Quezada, the show’s host. “He came over on Sunday, and while we were eating enchiladas and posole, we got to talking about making the 100th episode special. Bryan said ‘Why not have a contest?’ And we went from there.”

Quezada, who plays DEA agent Steve Gomez on “Breaking Bad,” says Cranston’s appearance on the late-night variety show will be his second time on the show. The first time Cranston appeared was in 2011, and Quezada and crew shaved the actor’s head – giving him White’s signature look.

“On the show, he tried stand-up comedy for the first time and was a real sport,” he explained. “Bryan has always supported the show, and we’re grateful that he’s giving his time to be a guest and judge the contest.”

The TV show has been taping for two years.

“I can’t believe that we’ve done that many shows,” Quezada said. “On those shows, we’ve featured about 90 percent of local musicians and tons of New Mexican talent.”

The weekly episodes air at midnight Saturdays on NBC, 2 a.m. Saturdays on CW and on AskMilton.tv, Tuff TV and My Family TV.

The show’s ratings have grown to 2.2 million viewers per week, and Quezada says he’s looking to its being syndicated.

“It’s been amazing to see the show grow and all of our workers get experience,” Quezada said. “This show started off as a way to showcase the talent in New Mexico, and we’ve gotten so much support from the entire community. We see people in our audience who have been there for the majority of the 100 shows.”

The 99th and 100th episodes will begin taping at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Wool Warehouse. Quezada said contestants for the White look-a-like contest should show up at 5:30 p.m. before the show, and staff will choose 10 contestants to appear on the show.

He said contestants will get “Breaking Bad” memorabilia, and the winner will have lunch on the set of “Breaking Bad.”

“Bryan has given back to the community while he’s been in Albuquerque,” he said. “We’re very fortunate that the entire ‘Breaking Bad’ cast has supported the show. This contest is sure to draw some die-hard fans out to see Bryan.”

I would consider him a minor character......don't think there's any spoilers here....:

I bombed horribly at this game. For some reason I know very little about the actors involved in this show. I am crazy for the show but I'm thinking it adds a bit of authenticity to just know the characters and not the actors.

I bombed horribly too. The only other show I remember seeing Paul in was Big Love.

I don't quite understand this statement; adds a bit of authenticity to just know the characters and not the actors.
I feel the opposite......but meanwhile...

Ah, good to see an actor taking on some civic responsibility. It's a good thing as long as he's not just trying to get by on a "pretty face" .

I mean, like after I knew every little thing about the actors on Roswell...and then on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it was harder for me to just sink into the story. I always knew things that interferred just a little bit. I can go either way but I kind of like how real all of Breaking Bad seems to me because I don't know any of the actors other work or personal details.

On Saturday Aaron Paul tweeted that the season would premier in July, but then he came back shortly and apologized saying only that it would be "later in the summer".

Did I say that Ben and I are all caught up. We're ready for the new season as fast as they can get it to us.
