Breaking Bad News – Wednesday 07/27/11 Edition

Sorry I’m late today, I had this thing all wrapped up and then JUST as I was about to hit “publish” I got kidnapped by some ex-cop and held in an underground meth superlab until my boss came by and slit a co-workers throat.  Wait, no, that’s what I WISHED happened.  In reality, I got…

Breaking Bad News – Tuesday 07/26/11 Edition

If you’re looking for it, we posted our cast fairly early yesterday evening.  Otherwise, it’s going to be a  busy day for me and an apparently light day of Breaking Bad news, so let’s get right to it. John Crook from Zap2It talks with Aaron Paul about an indy film he just finished up.  “Just…

402 – Thirty Eight Snub

First up, I challenge some of Jim’s takes from last week, we touch on a cranky dude from Seattle’s complete failure to get the point of Breaking Bad. We recap the show, and considering the relative health of Jesse’s lifestyle, how Walt’s gangster side is being figuratively and literally knocked down a peg, Hank’s mancrush on his PT, Skyler’s new career in hostile takeovers, Victor’s replacement, and Mike’s apparent lack of attention to detail.

A.Ron’s Instant Take – “Thirty Eight Snub” – 402

Spoilers ahoy.  Do not read this unless you’ve seen the episode or don’t mind it being blown wide open. I knew half way through this episode that this one was going to be tough to write about.  Vince Gilligan seems to be intent on moving around his pieces on the board and slowing things down…

Jim’s Instant Take – “Thirty Eight Snub” – 402

“Thirty-Eight Snub” definitely felt like a bridge episode. All of the storylines are sitting on super-volcanoes, just waiting to erupt, with devastating side-effects for everyone. Walt has to be ultra-paranoid right now. Gus obviously has his house on LOCK DOWN. Jesse and Walt aren’t getting near him at this point. I don’t believe for a…

Breaking Bad News – Friday 07/22/11 Edition

Dammit, I posted yesterday’s news under the Blue Yonder section by mistake.  I’ll try not to make the same mistake going forward.  They’re just awfully close together in the “Categories” box in wordpress.  Moving on… I really identified with a few points in this article in the Sioux City Journal by the AP.  Ever since…

Breaking Bad News – Thursday 07/21/11

This one is going to be short, because I’ve got a ton of work to do, then my company is hosting a golf outing in the mouth of hell.  Someone pray for me as I try to chip around the pits of bubbling pitch and everlasting flame. The aptly named Dick Falkenbury at the Seattle…

Breaking Bad News — Tuesday 07/19/11 Edition

Kind of a light news day, which I expect going forward.  I mean, there is no shortage of one-note reviews that don’t break any new ground, rehashed quotes from Gilligan and the cast, etc, but I’m trying to only post new and noteworthy stuff.  But if you can’t get enough and you want to just drink…
