I thought the twins were "ok", not awesome.

They had their highs and lows. They just came off as pretty cheesy a lot of times. I think they could have went another direction and the show wouldn't have been effected at all.

I'm willing to buy 8 episodes and that's not even an option?

Haha, thanks. I don't actually use iTunes, I just figured the official site would have mentioned that it was available there.

At least now I can recommend a legal option for the numerous people I have recommended the show to in the last year.

Behind the Lens: Michael Slovis, ASC & Breaking Bad

http://magazine.creativecow.net/arti...c-breaking-bad

"I became the cinematographer for Breaking Bad when Adam Bernstein, who directed two episodes, threw my name in the hat and Christina Wayne from AMC called me to offer me the job. She said, "You've come highly recommended, we think you're the guy for the job, come to New Mexico." I'd been travelling a lot and I was looking not to travel anymore, so I said, "I'm not interested" and hung up the phone. My wife was walking by and I told her it was Breaking Bad and she said immediately, "Call them back and tell them to hold off on calling anyone else." I asked them to send me the first season, sat down with my wife and from the first shot of the pilot -- a pair of pants falling through the air and landing on the road -- my jaw dropped. I said, "Oh my god, this is filmmaking." I also told my wife, who was trying to get me to stay in New York, that she'd done a bad thing, because I was going to do the show and go to New Mexico. She told me she knew what she was doing."

Like many others I just finally caught up to real time with Breaking Bad. My wife and I watched from season 1 to half way through season 5 in about 2 months and it's quickly become our favorite show.

Not only is the acting and writing top notch but the directing, editing and cinematography is fantastic. You just don't get television shows of good movie quality very often. Character arcs like these (for basically every character) are something you just don't see on TV very often. Aaron Paul is awesome. The only thing I don't really like is Walter White Jr. He seems to overact on a fairly regular basis.

Spoiler!

I thought at first he was terrible until I found out he actually does have cerebral palsy in real life.

Now I'm not sure if I'm just more sympathetic or if it's because he's actually getting better.

I didn't see this mentioned, but there is talk of a Saul spin off... that could be interesting.

Hah, that would be great! I think he's my favorite character.

Course that would mean that they can't kill him off. Course I expected that anyway. The greasy lawyer standing alone at the end, makes sense.

AMC has set a premiere date for the final eight episodes of "Breaking Bad," and it's also greenlit a companion show a la "Talking Dead."
Neat

Pretty sure it was originally intended to start back up in mid June, and last I heard it was supposed to be July 14 or 21.
