In an alternate universe, Breaking Bad aired as a network family drama in 1995. Here’s the intro.

Breaking Bad Parody of  Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” which is actually better than the original song!

Watch Jesse Pinkman’s comic book characters, Dr. Chemistry and Team S.C.I.E.N.C.E., fight for their right to be awesome in this original Jesse Pinkman production.

“The Ecstasy of Gold” is a musical composition by Ennio Morricone, part of his score for the Sergio Leone film The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. It is played while Tuco (Eli Wallach) is frantically searching a graveyard for the grave that holds $200,000 in gold coins. Metallica has used “The Ecstasy of Gold” as the introductory music for its concerts since 1984; it is included on the live symphonic album S&M.

Now that the history lesson over, can you imagine this haunting melody playing over a montage of the greatest moments of Breaking Bad?

THE JESSE PINKMAN B*TCH SUPERCUT Yo!

It’s the Jesse Pinkman supercut, bitch. Plus, some other randomly funny moments from the first four-and-a-half seasons.

Sure we all know that two airplane’s crashed in mid air, which was caused by Janes dad [Jane is Jesse’s girlfriend who overdosed and Walt watched] the pink bear came from the wreckage which landed around Walters house and maybe he had a moment of guilt and realisation that his actions had ultimately caused this mess and the loss of many lives.

However if you are fully up to date with the show and accept this SPOILER ALERT, read below to see Dustin Rowles theories  behind that pink teddy bear.

 A lot of people who obsess over the show and read everything about it probably already know the significance of the pink teddy bear (and his eye), but for those of you who rushed through the first four seasons in marathons without the benefit of constant Internet chatter, it’s worth looking looking back at the life of the the prop over the course of the series.

Breaking Bad has no many outstanding scenes but one that will forever be remembered is between Mike and Walt in the episode Half Measures (Season 3, Episode 12)

Mike then tells Walt a story about confronting a chronic wife abuser back when he was a beat cop. Mike intervened, and almost killed the wife-beater, but gave in when the abuser promised to change his ways. Shortly thereafter the man beat his wife to death. Mike’s mistake was to take a half measure when he should have killed the abuser. “No more half measures, Walter,” he says referring to Jesse.

Breaking Bad fans are so used to seeing Walter White as the meth-cooking, boss-shooting, wife-bullying “one who knocks” that it’s easy to lose sight of who he was when we first met him: a meek, brilliant yet underachieving high-school science teacher with a terminal cancer diagnosis.

It didn’t take long for him to “break bad,” but his transformation into the brutal narcissist of Season 5 was gradual, albeit with occasional shocks along the way. It’s this devolution that is the show’s greatest obsession, and the fan-edited video below is the best showcase we’ve seen of both Vince Gilligan’s forward-looking character development and Bryan Cranston’s masterful embodiment of Walter.

It also reminded us of an early monologue that might be the best clue as to where Breaking Bad is heading: “[C]hange: That’s all of life. It’s the constant, it’s the cycle. It’s grown, then decay, then transformation.”

The Methopoly set includes files for its very Bad board, Property Cards, Bell Cards (replacingMonopoly Chance Cards), and Heisenberg Cards (replacing Community Chest cards). Board locations highlight memorable spots from all 5 (up to this point) seasons of the series, such as the Schrader Home ($240), Los Pollos Hermanos ($350), and, of course, the Meth Lab ($400). Silverman suggests subsidizing the game’s non-printable components with money, houses, and hotels from any non-virtual Monopoly. Playing pieces are transferrable too, but real fans will more likely start collecting Breaking Bad-themed miniatures also for sale around the Internet instead. A little blue crystal, a tiny Walter, a hand-blown glass chemistry set with penny-sized flasks and cylinders.

Silverman makes complete instructions for Methopoly download and assembly available here, and hopes those who take the non-literal foray into bathtub-based drug culture will comment about their experience here.

Walter and Jesse – Shopping for Ingredients

Walter and Jesse agree to up production and cook 2lbs a week for Tuco, it’s a bold move which has its flaws as Jesse informs Walter there are ingredients which are very difficult to come across.

In an interesting side plot it becomes apparent that Marie is a shoplifter to her sister Skyler, when she tries to return a baby tiara only to be held by the store workers.

Walter and Jesse go out and steal a barrel of methylamine from a local chemical factory to cover off the remaining ingredients they cannot find to cook Meth, when the RV won’t start though they have to take the step of cooking in Jesse’s basement.

In the final scenes Walter and Jesse do a deal with Tuco in a salvage yard a Blue Sky Meth is born as the deal is being settled Tuco flips on one of his men and beats him savagely for speaking out of turn.
