| SYNOPSIS/PLOT |
Breaking Bad follows protagonist Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who lives in New Mexico with his wife Skyler (Anna Gunn) and teenage son (RJ Mitte) who has cerebral palsy. White is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given a prognosis of two years left to live. With a new sense of fearlessness based on his medical prognosis, and a desire to secure his family's financial security, White chooses to enter a dangerous world of drugs and crime and ascends to power in this world. The series explores how a fatal diagnosis such as White's releases a typical man from the daily concerns and constraints of normal society and follows his transformation from mild family man to a kingpin of the drug trade. |
| PRO REVIEWS |
----------------------------------------
"A mondo-bizarro, dark-as-midnight, bitterly bleak tragicomedy (...) Breaking Bad" may give you an oddly gratifying case of the creeps" (Tom Shales: The Washington Post)
----------------------------------------
"Breaking Bad mixes desperation and deviousness to yield a volatile, valuable product" (Ken Tucker: Entertainment Weekly)
----------------------------------------
"Series creator Vince Gilligan brings a quirky sensibility to the pilot, and the show grows increasingly rich and absorbing in the second and third hours" (Brian Lowry: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"It's an uneven Coen Brothers--like mix of dark comedy and darker moral drama, but Cranston is amazing as a desperate, conflicted gangsta-nerd" (James Poniewozik: Time)
