Celebrate the fan-favorite series Breaking Bad by revisiting some of its most memorable scenes

Chronology

A chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer begins producing and selling methamphetamine to a former student in order to secure his family’s future. Originally, Jesse Pinkman was going to be written out of the series in episode 9. During a hiatus due to the writers’ strike, creator Vince Gilligan, impressed with Aaron Paul’s portrayal of Jesse and the fact that everyone just liked Paul, decided to bring the character back and hand Jesse’s fate to another character in the season 1 finale. In the opening credits, the letters of the cast and crew names are highlighted in green to represent symbols for chemical elements. However, the «Ch» in Michael Slovis’ name was highlighted in several early episodes, even though Ch is not a symbol for a chemical element.

Who do you think you see?

In later episodes, only the letter «C» (for carbon) is highlighted. Walter White: Who are you talking to now? Do you know how much I make per year? Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe it. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going to work?

I AM danger

A company big enough to be listed on the NASDAQ goes bust. Disappears. Without me, it ceases to exist. No, you obviously don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me enlighten you. I’m not in danger, Skyler.

A guy opens the door and gets shot, and that’s what you think about me? NO! I’m knocking! The opening credits use chemical symbols from the periodic table as part of the names: bromine (Br) and barium (Ba) in the title, none for creator Vince Gilligan (except when he gets V for vanadium), one for the cast and crew. All episodes were repeated on demand on the cable channel in some regions, without commercials but with additional scenes not included on AMC.

I can’t stress enough how good this program is. I’ve watched a lot of TV shows in my life and this show is still the best I’ve ever seen.
