Great news and so very well deserved!

Seeing how the community has been sitting rather idle waiting for Breaking Bad to return I thought it might be good to add a Friending Meme so we can get to know each other better before season two rolls around.

All you do to play along is copy, paste and answer (skip any you'd rather not answer) the below items in a comment on this thread.

A big collector of TV memorabilia I toyed with being greedy ...

In the end the need to share took over and I decided to let you know there are a fair share of Breaking Bad "For Your Consideration" DVD available on EBay right now.

Some are duel sets that have both Breaking Bad and Mad Men.

Most prices are reasonable so snatch one up if you like collecting stuff like that.

On a similair note if anyone out there is in a position to get their hands on any "For Your Consideration" trade paper or magazine ads snag me one if you can.

From ...
Ausiello Report - TV Guide
Dream Emmy Ballot


Lead Drama Actor
Kyle Chandler (Eric, Friday Night Lights)
Bryan Cranston (Walter, Breaking Bad)
Matthew Fox (Jack, Lost)
Michael C. Hall (Dexter, Dexter)
Jon Hamm (Don, Mad Men)

No matter how demanding his FNL storyline, Chandler continued to make it look easy; eschewing the "middle" ground, Cranston got us high on his drug-dealing suburbanite; Fox quietly solidified his status as one of the tube's most reliable and unshowy stalwarts; Hall slayed us by adding a touch of crazy to his sexy, cool serial killer; and Hamm proved anything but in a performance that was as subtle as it was memorable.

While I rarely agree with Ausiello .... he seems to know what's what this time around!

PLUS Someone has a BIRTHDAY TODAY!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
PS: I can only see your B day's when you're on my flist so drop over and flist me :o)

Disclaimer: I know they're not mine. I'm old and tired so, PTB, please don't slap me around for playing with your toys.
Summary: While Jessie always knew falling down the rabbit hole was a possibility he never imagine it would happen quite this way.
Authors notes: FIRST Breaking Bad fic! Of course, after writing 100's for a handful of shows over the years, this surely will not be my last. Because anyone who reads this will not likely know me let me explain for good or bad, more bad than the good, this whole first person POV thingie I got going here is just how I do things. My style, if you will. Some like it, some hate it and some folks simply grow accustomed to it over time. Its me and I take no offense if its not to your liking.

While I have no clue how to share I did manage to make and install a Breaking Bad moodtheme on my personal LJ today.

You can see it here:
http://pamalax.livejournal.com/416122.html

And I'll work on installing it here tomorrow so you can use the Breaking Bad moods you want when you post here from now on.

I'm working on creating a mood theme.

I SUCK AT IT!

Any idea WHY these all look different when it said it reduced them all to 100 x 75?

Anybody want to help... anyone with TALENT!

With only 7 eps to deal with I'm okay with using the same pic for many different moods. I also hope to find a couple smiles SOMEWHERE as there is nothing here for the light moods. I'm looking myself but am eager for any suggestions if you have other picture or know of places I can get them.

Advice? HELP!

Do you have any amusing little Breaking Bad stories to share?

Running into other fans in odd places?

Situations that remind you of the show or its characters.

I've got three myself
( Read more... )

So you got any :o)

I wished I'd of discovered this community sooner. It's too bad Breaking Bad only had seven episodes, but I did love watching them.

The wonderful people at AMCtv.com are featuring our little Breaking Bad community this week.

Lookie ;o)
http://blogs.amctv.com/breaking-bad/2008/04/site-of-the-week-livejournal.php

Very kind of them!

Hopefully this something will increase our numbers and generate more conversations.

Since the phone interview I did hooked me up good and proper as Jessie's girl how about we welcome vistors and new members with a little...

"Who's your favorite Breaking Bad character? "

Tell us who... tell us why :o)

** I'm also gonna, to keep it fresh as we wait for a second season, do a weekly redec each Wed. What do you think of the first?

The official AMC Breaking Bad page is giving fans free fridge magnets

I have no idea how long *supplies will last* but for now all you have to do to get a pair is register and leave a comment here:

While I'm putting this over at the official AMC BB site I wanted to post here as well as the set up there doesn't easily allow for ongoing coversations

Just for fun, as we WAIT FOR CONFIRMATION (sorry...that's me getting impatient) of a second season, how about a lil viewer speculation and or fan wish lists.

To encourage plenty of participation I'll make it very easy to play along.

You must:
~Choose four different characters
~Make a prediction or season two wish for all four characters
~Mark each one, next to the name, 'Speculation' or 'Wish' (feel free to do one or both) and keep each thought to a 25 word max.

Example:
HANK-Speculation - Hank will find out about Walt but keep his mouth shut about in exchange for Walt staying quiet on his wife's lil habit.
HANK - Wish - Hank, seeing Walt and Jessie together, will start pressing Jessie on Walt is up to.

Sound like fun?

While I'll need a day or two to mull over my own predictions and wishes I look very forward to reading all of yours as we WAIT FOR CONFIRMATION! (Yeah! I'm still impatient but I want more... AMC should be flattered and pleased we want it that *BAD* ) on a second season of Breaking Bad

Season one over already :o(

Far too soon!

Here's hoping we'll get a second season greenlighted and into production very soon.

My thoughts on the finale are tucked under the cut.
** Remember there will be spoilers under the cut and in the comments**

Reruns, every Sunday night at 10 as usual, begin right away so tell your friends to give Breaking Bad a shot!

Sorry I'm slow with this thread this time around.

Along with not feeling well - while what I'm dealing with is not life threatening I gotta admit I feel for Walt after being picked apart by docs myself lately - I was honestly so blown away by Sunday's ep I simply forgot that I had not set up the discussion post for the week.

I guess the two eps before this one were the calm before the storm?

Was that one hell of a storm Sunday night, or what?

The range of emotions I went through was epic to say the least.

That was some mighty fine TV ... in my opinion just about as good as it gets.

Can't wait to hear what all of you thought!

Please remember to keep all spoilerish details from the show to the comments sections until everyone has had a chance to watch the episodes.
