Scenario
A chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer turns to making and selling methamphetamine with a former student to secure his family’s future. Celebrate the fan-favorite series « Breaking Bad » by revisiting some of the most memorable scenes. During the hiatus caused by the writers strike, creator Vince Gilligan, impressed by Aaron Paul’s portrayal of Jesse as well as the fact that everyone liked Paul, decided to reinstate the character and have Jesse’s fate be given to another character in the first season finale. In the opening credits, the letters of the cast and crew’s names are highlighted in green to represent chemical element symbols. However, the « Ch » in Michael Slovis’s name was highlighted in several early episodes, despite Ch not being a chemical element symbol.
Who do you think you see?
In later episodes, only the « C » (for Carbon) is highlighted. Walter White: Who Are You Talking To Right Now? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, 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 the danger
A company big enough to be listed on the NASDAQ goes bankrupt. Disappears. Ceases to exist — without me. No, you clearly don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me give you a hint. I’m not in danger, Skyler.
I’m the one knocking!
A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that about me? No! The opening credits use chemical symbols from the periodic table of elements as part of the names: bromine (Br) and barium (Ba) for the title, neither for creator Vince Gilligan (except when he gets a V for vanadium), one for the cast and crew members. All episodes were repeated on an on-demand cable channel in some areas, commercial-free but with additional scenes not included on AMC. Edited on CollegeHumor Originals: Breaking Bad/Walking Dead Mash-Up (2013).
