Breaking Bad? Better Call Saul!

Thursday, 11 March 2010

Breaking Bad returns to AMC on Sunday 21 March @10/9c, and to celebrate they've created the www.bettercallsaul.com website, which includes some videos starring Bob Odenkirk as Walter's crooked lawyer Saul Goodman (one of which I've embedded above.) Just to confirm what should be obvious, I'll be covering Breaking Bad's third season every week once it comes back on-air. There's a handy recap of the previous two seasons at AMC's official site, too, but it's only accessible if you're in the US. Finally, here's a press release to wet your appetite for season 3:

The stakes get even higher in the third season of AMC's Breaking Bad, which the Los Angeles Times calls "the best show on television." Bryan Cranston -- winner of back-to-back Emmys® for Outstanding Lead Actor -- shatters suburban stereotypes in his "brilliant" (The Hollywood Reporter) performance as chemistry teacher turned drug kingpin Walt White. As danger and suspicion around him escalate, Walt continues to straddle two conflicting worlds: a ruthless swirl of drugs, murder and mayhem on one hand, and a complex and emotionally fraught domestic life on the other. Unstable, volatile and dangerous, Breaking Bad shows just "how thrilling TV can be when it lives on the edge" (TV Guide). From the network that brought you the critically-acclaimed pop culture phenomenon Mad Men, the new season of Breaking Bad ignites this March on AMC.
