In later episodes, only the “C” (carbon) is highlighted
A chemistry professor diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer starts making and selling meth with a former student to secure his family’s future. Celebrate the fan-favorite series “Breaking Bad” by reminiscing about some of its most memorable moments. Jesse Pinkman was originally scheduled to be fired by episode 9. During a hiatus caused by the writers’ strike, creator Vince Gilligan, impressed by Aaron Paul’s portrayal of Jesse and the fact that Paul was simply loved by everyone, decided to bring the character back and give Jesse’s fate to another character in the first season finale. In the opening credits, the letters in the cast and crew’s names are highlighted in green as symbols for chemical elements. However, the “Ch” in Michael Slovis’ name is highlighted in several early episodes, even though Ch is not the symbol for a chemical element.
Who do you think you’re seeing?
Walter White: Who are you talking to now? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe it. Do you know what will happen if I suddenly decide to stop going to work? A firm big enough to be listed on NASDAQ went bankrupt. Disappear.
I’m in danger
He ceases to exist without me. No, you obviously don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me tell you. I’m not in danger, Skyler. A guy opens the door and gets shot, and that’s what you think of me? Not! I’m the one knocking!
The show ties everything together neatly
The opening credits use chemical symbols from the periodic table of elements as part of the name: bromine (Br) and barium (Ba) for the title, none for creator Vince Gilligan (except when he gets a V for vanadium), one for the cast and crew groups. All episodes are rerun on cable on demand in some areas, commercial-free, but with additional credits not included on AMC. Edited by CollegeHumor Originals: Breaking Bad/Walking Dead Mash-Up (2013). Dead fingers talk working in a nuclear-free city. One of the best shows ever, the pace is great. The characters are well developed and interesting.
Very good storytelling, well done Vince Gilligan
It’s a sincere show that gets better with each viewing. It’s cathartic to see Walter get into trouble, and the way the story unfolds is the best way it could have been.
