As you all may, or may not know....Darling Walt had a "gun moll" (Mistress) on the side.
Here he is in one of the only photos taken of the two together.:kiss:

It's true. Blondes definitely have more fun! :smokey::biggrin:

On to my bag of blue meth.

Hey, check this out....Bryan Cranston and Breaking Bad getting some major props from one of films great talents, Anthony Hopkins:

Dear Mister Cranston.

I wanted to write you this email - so I am contacting you through Jeremy Barber - I take it we are both represented by UTA. Great agency.

I've just finished a marathon of watching "BREAKING BAD" - from episode one of the First Season - to the last eight episodes of the Sixth Season. [Ed note: There are in fact five seasons of Breaking Bad; this might have been wishful thinking.] (I downloaded the last season on AMAZON) A total of two weeks (addictive) viewing.

I have never watched anything like it. Brilliant!

Your performance as Walter White was the best acting I have seen - ever.

I know there is so much smoke blowing and sickening bullshit in this business, and I've sort of lost belief in anything really.

But this work of yours is spectacular - absolutely stunning. What is extraordinary, is the sheer power of everyone in the entire production. What was it? Five or six years in the making? How the producers (yourself being one of them), the writers, directors, cinematographers.... every department - casting etc. managed to keep the discipline and control from beginning to the end is (that over used word) awesome.

From what started as a black comedy, descended into a labyrinth of blood, destruction and hell. It was like a great Jacobean, Shakespearian or Greek Tragedy.

If you ever get a chance to - would you pass on my admiration to everyone - Anna Gunn, Dean Norris, Aaron Paul, Betsy Brandt, R.J. Mitte, Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Steven Michael Quezada - everyone - everyone gave master classes of performance ... The list is endless.

Thank you. That kind of work/artistry is rare, and when, once in a while, it occurs, as in this epic work, it restores confidence.

You and all the cast are the best actors I've ever seen.

That may sound like a good lung full of smoke blowing. But it is not. It's almost midnight out here in Malibu, and I felt compelled to write this email.

Congratulations and my deepest respect. You are truly a great, great actor.

Best regards

Tony Hopkins.

High praise indeed. Lecter knows his shit.
Hopkins is a great actor. "Magic" scared the shit out of me when I was a a kid.

Here's an update on the spinoff tentatively called "Better Call Saul."

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/11/06/better-call-saul-breaking-bad-prequel-sequel_n_4227087.html

"Better Call Saul," the spinoff of "Breaking Bad" starring Bob Odenkirk, may not be a straight prequel as previously announced. Odenkirk told IGN the plans for the new series could feature what Saul Goodman is up to now following the "Breaking Bad" series finale.

"Well, I've talked to Vince [Gilligan] and Peter [Gould], who are writing and creating the series, about this and I’ve said that a lot of people do want to see what happens to next to Saul," Odenkirk told IGN. "So, I don’t know what they’re going to do. I know they’ve talked about prequel, but they’ve also talked to me about sequel, and they’ve also talked to me about a mix of prequel and sequel."

When the spinoff news was announced in September, AMC and Sony released a joint statement saying: "AMC and Sony Pictures Television confirmed today that they have reached a licensing agreement for a spinoff of Vince Gilligan's landmark AMC/SPT series 'Breaking Bad.' As conceived, the new series is based on the show’s popular Saul Goodman character with the working title 'Better Call Saul.' Plans call for Saul to be a one-hour prequel that will focus on the evolution of the popular Saul Goodman character before he ever became Walter White’s lawyer."

"Breaking Bad" creator Gilligan told The Hollywood Reporter both Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul of expressed interest in appearing in the series. "Personally, I'd have a hard time resisting putting all these guys in for a cameo or two every now and then," he said.

Odenkirk said he wants to make sure his new show is different for the viewers.

"I told Peter and Vince, right away I said, 'Look man, let us make this fresh for everyone.' So that right away, in the first five minutes, every viewer goes, 'Oh, this isn't "Breaking Bad," this is its own thing.’ And I think they feel the same exact way. There might be a cameo here or there, but I don’t know. We’re going to do a new show."

Odenkirk told IGN he thinks the "Better Call Saul" writers are getting to work in the coming weeks. For more, head over to IGN.

harry thats too funny!
wow so its based loosely on these guys' lives.
lol jk:)
truly tho, the finale was just about as perfect as it could be. breaking bad truly was an epic series from beginning to end. glad they finished it so well(lookin at you dexter writers).
and yes i will be tuning into better call saul. hopefully its a mix of before the breaking bad period as well as after, tho more of the after period and less of the before.

It's on my list too. although I've seen it. A pity the special Barrel edition is sold out.

I've actually seen that episode of Cops a couple of times, I remember watching it with my Dad a couple of weeks before he died. I think it involved a chick, who they let carry the gear, and they left her carrying the can.
EDIT... It may have involved a stolen rode on lawnmower.

Both you guys are in for a special treat. Never seen the show yet? Yeah, don't read anything that might spoil it for ya. Definitely some of the best TV ever made.

Once you watch an episode or two, it's going to sink it's claws into you, and you're going to want to start consuming it in mass quantitities (kinda like the meth, how poignant). Let me suggest that you don't give in to that desire...in the end you will appreciate the show, have a greater understanding of the subtleties, if you consume it like a fine wine. Don't guzzle it...sip it, boys. I would do one episode per day/night, at the most 2 at a time. This is one of those shows that benefits greatly from letting your subconscious chew on the content a bit before seeing the next episode. That is easier said than done, though...good luck!

Breaking bad...... twice as addictive as Crystal Meth





(Probably not as tough on the old chompers though)
