"All BAD Things Must Come to an End" - Breaking Bad Season 5: Part 2 Official Thread (SPOILERS)

[hex]

Here's 3 Live Blogs of the "Breaking Bad" panel at the Television Critic's Association that happened today. No new info really but there is a minor spoiler about the first scene from "Blood Money" in Tim Goodman's blog, so watch out for that. This is basically the creator/actors talking about the show in general. Always interesting:

I hope they include that whole thing in an episode and not just a commercial. That was great.

Charlie rose finished an interview just earlier. On one of his final questions about casting for the show. SPOILER

He asked "what was the thought process of casting me, in the second to final episode?" The audience as well as squirmed a little. And Vince replied "Spoiler Alert Charlie! Spoiler alert" So could that mean the news of Walts endeavors break worldwide?" Walt making national news?

First reviews are out for the season premiere, "Blood Money". And of course they're all

Hitting the ground running is precisely what Gilligan had to do in this last eight-episode stretch of Breaking Bad episodes. He’s told the press that he believes viewers will be satisfied with what transpires ultimately, and he’s never given us any reason to doubt him.

Nothing more really needs to be said. The entire run of Breaking Bad has been remarkable and, as I’ve stated in the past, I don’t think any TV series got out of the blocks and reached greatness faster than Breaking Bad.

Creative confidence has long been a hallmark of “Breaking Bad” but the program has rarely seemed more sure of where it’s going than it does right now. We drift from great programs when it feels like the writers know about as much about where their characters are going as we do (see frustration about the recent seasons of “Mad Men” and “Dexter,” although the latter has renewed confidence now that it’s in a final season). I don’t think there’s ever been a moment of doubt in the entire arc of “Breaking Bad” but it’s more notable than ever. In Vince Gilligan we trust.

The return of "Breaking Bad" is something to be celebrated by all those who crave crafty, intelligent and beautifully shot television.

I'm not going to spoil anything about the return of "Breaking Bad," except this: It's as good as it's ever been. As good as any TV show has ever been.

My revealing anything about the plot would be a missed opportunity for you and an act of foolish egotism by me. Because nothing I could put into sentences would deliver the crackling euphoria the show creates with each jittery montage, wincing fight, scream-at-the-screen flashforward. "Breaking Bad" tells its story better than anyone else could.

So just watch the show yourself, Aug. 11, two Sundays from now. I don't envy your wait, but I envy you getting to see the return episode for the first time. "Breaking Bad" is still giddily addictive, a joy to watch, a marvel.

I'll post more as they come in.

Fred.

The IMDB listing from a few pages ago that showed every dead character returning is apparently fake:



Rian Johnson directed the ep.
