Things that make me happy... Breaking Bad

Things that make me happy... Breaking Bad on AMC

Breaking Bad has been on TV since 2008 on AMC and was one of the best kept secrets on TV. But the secret is out... if you pay attention to the Emmy awards. Much like Battlestar Galactica on SciFy or Madmen on AMC, its a great show on a cable channel with limited viewers. But there is no doubt that it is one of the best dramas on TV over the past 4 years.

Bryan Cranston stars as Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher that becomes a Crystal Meth drug dealer.  Aaron Paul is Jesse Pinkman his former high school student, a drug user, and his partner in their criminal dealings.  What makes this series work is the realism and dark humor of trying to run an illegal drug operation while hiding this from your friends and family.  The series is filled with awkward moments, amateur mistakes, and tragic misunderstanding as they build their criminal empire.

The writers explores the morality of criminals and whether ends justify the means. The supporting characters add dramatic depth to the series and round out this outstanding ensemble cast. But the stars are Pinkman and Cranston both give their best performances and drive the series at a frantic pace.

Too funny.. But you'll get the point of the series.
