I'm thinking the 5th season will be dealing with Walt and the "German Company" ( CIA ) that was funding Gus. I'm thinking things are going to get really crazy, but can't wait to have this season launch.

Still one of my favorite scenes -

'Breaking Bad's final season to be split in two, says Bryan Cranston

Bryan Cranston has confirmed that the final season of Breaking Bad will be split into two parts.

AMC is preparing to wrap the journey of Cranston's character Walter White in the show's fifth and final season with 16 new episodes.

Cranston revealed to Entertainment Weekly: "We're splitting it. We're going to shoot the first eight, then take a four-month production break, then the rest will air next year."

On the fifth season's opener, the actor revealed that it will pick up "right where [they] left off".

"We're cleaning up the pieces from last season's huge ordeal where Gus Fring was forced to meet his maker," Cranston added. "It's not as easy as Walter thought.

"And as we've discovered over the years, you don't really know who Walter White is. I'm still discovering who he is and I'm trying to allow myself to be open to him going darker and darker.

"There's physical danger to himself and his family, plus there's the emotional danger due to his anger and hubris. It's about the evil that men do and where that takes him."

Cranston's co-star Aaron Paul recently revealed that Breaking Bad will return for its fifth season in July on AMC.

A really great start to the season, the beginning of the episode had me a little confused at first, but then I realised what it was. haha

Did anyone else think Ted Beneke was dead? I could have sworn he snapped his neck last season when he fell? haha

we were meant to think he died last season, but apparently he slipped into a coma and survived (by 'an act of god' as saul put it in this episode)

I had a hunch he wasn't dead, didn't think they'll write him out that abrupt

Nonetheless, that was a great start to the season. The whole build up with the magnets was tense, it also had it's funny moments.

Thoughts on this weeks episode?

Bit slow paced but it seems Mike has to do all the cleaning up after Gus' death.

Mike has always been one of my favourites on the show. The scene with Him, Hank and Gomez in the DEA office when Mike put his hands on the table was just awesome.

Also, Walt Jr skipped breakfast?!?!

I never watched any of the seasons of Breaking Bad but had finally heard from one to many people I really needed to check it out. So last Sunday me and my wife started watching the series at Season 01.

Currently 4 episodes into Season 02, and damn what a great, great show. Easily one of the best shows ever made as far as "basic" cable television, if not the best. I imagine we will be fully caught up within a month or so. If it was up to me would be sooner than that, but have a whole lot going on the next few weekends like a System Of A Down concert next weekend and a wedding the following weekend, or else I would say we would fully be caught up within 2 weeks. :laugh: But really like it that much. Plan is to get through Season 02 this weekend.

DirtyLarry, it is indeed an excellent show! There are lots of edge-of-the-seat story arcs coming in the coming episodes and seasons!

The fifth (and final) season has started very well, although I'm not sure how I feel about the season being split into two sections...

the Idea to cook in tented houses as pest fumigators is nothing I would have ever guessed, I always assumed they'd be a basement in the car wash or something for them to cook in

The scene in the music shop made me laugh so much with badger and skinny pete, and I also found this comic on the Breaking Bad Facebook page which is pretty funny if you watch the show.

Currently on Episode 8 of Season 03.

Hank killed the one twin, is in the hospital now.

We are seriously addicted. It is pretty much my favorite TV show ever. No exaggeration about that. It is brilliant in all regards.

So Season 05 is the definite last season? I thought I had maybe heard that, but just read it.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.
