## Description

Emmy® Award winner Bryan Cranston stars as Walter White, a down-on-his-luck chemistry teacher struggling to make ends meet for his wife (Anna Gunn) and physically challenged son (RJ Mitte). Everything changes when Walter receives a startling diagnosis: terminal lung cancer. With only a few years to live and nothing to lose, Walter uses his training as a chemist to cook and sell crystal meth with one of his former students (Aaron Paul). As his status grows, so do his lies, but Walt will stop at nothing to make sure his family is taken care of after he’s gone, even if it means putting all their lives on the line. Executive produced by Vince Gilligan and Mark Johnson.

Review: Heisenberg ? Uncertainty ? Yo ! - This has bleak, black humour and represents the depth to which our post-modern world has descended. But why do i love it ? How ordinary ? Mr White ? We all had teachers called Mr White and even Jesse continues to call him that throughout their fraught and lethal relationship. Well its either that or 'bitch'. Characterisation is everything and this series really does develop each of the main contenders. But Walter is the star. We admire his intellect and sympathise with his plight as an underachieving chemistry teacher at odds with his financial failure, while his contempories make it rich. The effort to make extra income from the car wash and the humiliating embarrassment that this brings serves to remind us of our own failures and shortcomings. But we don't turn to crime and attempt to lessen the impact on our consciences by lieing to all our loved ones as well as ourselves. This is what Walter does and it gets deeper and deeper, darker and darker until you begin to realise that his position at any given time in the series is unpredictable as well as the velocity or pace at which he moves. Heisenberg is a brilliant alias for Walter. Part of you wants Walter to succeed, because of his at first, apparent motives for doing so. He is dieing of cancer and wants (not needs) to leave his family with financial security, given that his son has cerebral palsy and his wife Skyler is expecting a child and him just turned fifty. His disarming, calm and slightly diffident manner along with his well known illness make him perfect for getting under the radar of DEA and police. The spiral of decline into drug crime, drags everyone he loves along with him until all are tainted directly or indirectly with the sad immorality of human weakness - desire, greed, hate, envy, lust and total lack of any consideration for others. Being responsible for the consequences of your actions is a huge part of the philosophy of utilitarianism that underlies much of American values and in this series the writers have provided us with a brilliant ambivilance to this as represented in the hero/villain Walter. The knock on effect of his actions are interwoven so well - the flight control officer, whose daughter Walter watches choke to death on her own vomit, is so affected by this trajedy that he ends up being responsible for a mid air collision, killing hundreds. Then we see Walter reluctantly addressing the whole school about the issue as part of a group therapy where everyone in Albuquerque has been seen in need of counselling. Walter tells everyone that there is still a positive side to this trajedy - 'it is only the 53rd worse air crash in history' ! It is really bleak at times - but it is also very funny. The hitman for the drug boss is seen returning his lovely grandchildren back to their mummy in their beautiful middle class home where they are encouraged to say bye bye to 'pop pop' - not grandpa or grandpappy. The very next scene we see him shooting three Mexican drug adversaries - 'pop' 'pop' 'pop' ! Just like that. It is excellent acting by the cast, the New Mexico desert and townscapes provide room for escape, the study in evil, the tragi-comic script, tension and audience participation where you feel you can make the decisions, good or bad, on behalf of Walter. I read somewhere where it was called a 'dramedy', a new genre of Tv movie. It is great entertainment - and you will not regret entering the quantum world of Walter White.
Review: The best series I have watched in a long time - There are only seven episodes in this first series of Breaking Bad but I was so hooked I watched them back to back - it has been a very long time since I have felt that enthralled by any series. The synopsis below does not give anything away beyond the first episode. The first episode opens with Walt (played by Bryan Cranston) walking away from a burning RV, gun in hand minus his trousers and with police sirens blaring in the distance. The scene looks bizarre and surreal as Walt couldn't look anything less like a criminal if he tried. The story then switches back to the present day and begins to fill in the gaps as to how he came to be in that position. This is a technique used frequently in both series one and two. Walt, a middle class, law abiding chemistry teacher discovers that at the age of 50 he has terminal lung cancer. He is working two jobs to keep the family finances afloat. His oldest son, Walt Junior has cerebral palsy and his wife, Skylar finds herself unexpectedly pregnant at the age of 40. Walt is at a loss as to how he is going to provide financial security for his family after his demise and in the short term how he is going to fund his medical care. He needs to get his hands on a vast sum of money - and he needs it quickly. Walt seeks out one of his former students, Jesse (Dean Norris) - a time wasting, good-for-nothing layabout and small time drug dealer. Much as it pains Walt to have anything to do with Jesse, he needs him for the one skill set he does have - cooking and selling methamphetamine. Together, the pair come up with a scheme to make the best meth on the market and to get rich very quickly. Suffice to say, things don't always go smoothly for them in their new business venture. The series is full of black humour - some of the things that happen are so awful that they are absolutely hilarious. The subject matter won't suit everyone's taste, some might even find it offensive, but I have to admit that I laughed until I cried on many occasions. Bryan Cranston plays Walt perfectly. He is completely believable in his role and it is impossible not to side with him and want him to be successful even though at the back of your mind you have that nagging reminder that he is now producing Class A drugs. The series doesn't make use of cliff-hangers or other tension inducing stunts commonly used in series such as 24, Prison Break, Oz etc - it simply doesn't need to bother with that type of ploy. Instead it relies on an imaginative plot, well written script and well rounded characters. When one episode ends all you will want to do is watch the next one; I would be surprised if anyone could stretch this series out over a long time period. The only negative is that there were just seven episodes - I wanted more as will anyone else who watches this series. Suffice to say I immediately bought series two and am currently watching those pretty much back-to-back. Overall, a brilliant drama series. If you missed it first time around on TV then grab a copy now, you won't regret it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Addictive!!!
*by M***S on 4 August 2011*

I happened to come across this whilst randomly browsing on Amazon one evening. All I can say is, it's one of the best things I've seen for a long time. The writing is sharp, witty and clever and the acting is superb, as is the storyline. The main character, Walter White, is played by Bryan Cranston (who plays Hal in Malcolm in the Middle). White is a high school chemistry teacher who is told he has terminal cancer. In response, he decides to do what he can to secure his family's financial future, and this is where the rulebook he seems to have adhered to his whole life, is thrown out with the trash. White uses what he knows best: his chemistry knowledge to make crystal meth and thus follows a chaotic, comedic and, at times, painful and tragic chain of events. White also seems to embark on a voyage of self-discovery; plus we discover things about his past, the decisions he made previously and how they impacted on his life, and the decisions he is making now, which are impacting on many others. The supporting characters also add great humour and depth to the story lines. White is supported by his pregnant wife, Skylar, who has no idea about what is going on; his dopey DEA agent brother-in-law regales White with stories of crime crackdowns with no idea he is cohorting with a minor druglord and his hyper sister-in-law, Marie, has her own secrets. White's partner-in-crime, Jesse, is superbly played by Aaron Paul and the partnership is almost Laurel and Hardy at times. Beneath the surface though, there is the reminder of what the drug scene is really about - the ruined lives, the violence, deaths, fear. We see two parallel and vastly different worlds existing side by side with White keeping a foot in each, trying desperately not to bring the two together. 'Breaking Bad' is black comedy at its best but beware it is quite gory in parts!
