Breaking Bad Alt. Curb Your Entusiasm Cuts for Season 5

Posted in Television, tagged , , , , , , , on September 10, 2012| Leave a Comment »

MASSIVE SEASON 5 Breaking Bad spoilers in these videos so, otherwise stay away!  These two clips I have are cuts from major scenes of Breaking Bad season 5.  These cuts include trademark Curb Your Enthusiasm humor and soundtrack.  I don’t watch too much Curb Your Enthusiasm, but I’ve seen enough to understand its dark humor, which is relayed and augmented in these clips.  My head is still reeling from the Breaking Bad season 5 midseason finale.  So these little pop culture quips will have to keep me going until the next 10 months….

Morning Link: How Apple’s Story is like “Breaking Bad”

Posted in Character Profiles, Television, tagged , , , , , , on September 10, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Omar Gallaga at CNN has stumbled upon an fascinating parallel. The rise and fall and rise again of tech giant Apple is stunningly similar to the adventures of Walter White in Breaking Bad. The similarities between Steve Jobs and Walter White are especially spine tingling.

Here are two excerpts from Mr. Gallaga’s article:

“What makes Apple so successful? Like Walter White, it has mixed the proper elements at just the right amounts to create highly pure, addictive products. The products have been made within secretive working conditions. The skill employed to design and manufacture them tends to make what competitors put out seem like cheaper, cloudier, less effective imitations.”

Say My Name: Breaking Bad Summary and Review

Posted in Reviews, Television, tagged , , , , , , , on August 27, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Breaking Bad aired last night and I’m reeling.  I admit I expected a lot of the events to happen, but the execution was exciting as always.  The soundtrack this year is absolutely astounding and fitting for so many occasions.  I even thought of Drive at a certain point.  Anywho, this episode, Say My Name, is the episode before the season finale.  As a whole after seeing this episode, I’m curious how it will all wrap up, considering that this episode didn’t really set up anything major to happen.  There was a lot of resolution in many places, and could honestly have been the season finale itself.  That means huge things will happen next episode and they’ll happen quickly.  Anywho, let’s summarize what happened last night below.  As always, major spoilers below!

Buyout: Breaking Bad Review

Posted in Reviews, Television, tagged , , , , , , , , , on August 20, 2012| Leave a Comment »

Two more episodes until the ‘season’ finale of Breaking Bad.  I’m assuming this most recent episode is the final set up before the explosive finale.  There are a lot of loose ends to knot up before we get there, and hopefully most of them are finished up before we have to wait an entire year before we see the resolution.  This episode is primarily a quick wrap up of what happened last as what most episodes are, but this we learn a couple of interesting new things that make us guess twice about end game each character is aiming at.  Enough vagueness, read below for the spoiler filled summary and review of the episode.

Madrigal: Breaking Bad Review

Posted in Reviews, Television, tagged , , , , , , , , , on July 24, 2012| 1 Comment »

Things are moving quite along for Breaking Bad.  Last season, we were given a look at who Gustavo Fring was and his motivations for things.  This background look at a supporting character was spine tingling, haunting, and delicious.  It appears that torch has passed onto Mike Ehrmantraut.  I’d say about 75% [if not more] belonged to him and I have to admit I loved every minute.  In this episode, we get a glimpse at a little bit of Walt and Jessie as well as a very key scene with Hank realizing something important.  Discussion and spoilers below!
