Breaking Bad on Five USA

Rejoice! The truly wonderful Breaking Bad (tucked away, unwatched and unloved, on FX in the UK) has been bought by Five. They will show season 2 on Five USA later this year. I'm assuming a repeat of season 1 will be in order, too. So, highly recommended viewing if you've yet to sample this show, about a mild-mannered chemistry teacher with terminal lung cancer who decides to become a crystal meth dealer to provide for his family after he dies. In the US, season 2 reaches its finale a week on Sunday on AMC.

Update: Annoyingly, Five's deal doesn't include season 1, but they're in negotiations with Sony Pictures Television about screening a half hour catch-up show to bring new viewers up to date with the story. I therefore recommend you try and get hold of the seven-episode first season yourself very soon!
