[edit] Awesome

The guy that put "This is going to be the best series I have ever seen. The pilot was AWSOME!" is so right, but some one should probably take that out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.85.114.217 (talk) 04:09, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] synopsis

That synopsis is for the first episode. It ought to be cut down immensely if not entirely removed.66.41.66.213 (talk) 23:58, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Agreed, it can definitely be taken as there is a decent synopsis on the Pilot Episode's page, and it has no relevance otherwise. --George The Man (talk) 09:13, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] title logo and chemical symbol

The show logo use the chemical symbols Br for Bromine and Ba for Barium to spell first two letters of the words Breaking Bad that make up the show title. Will add this later if I have time to phrase it so that some jackass won't immediately call it trivia and delete it but if someone can think of a suitable way to add the information please go ahead. -- Horkana (talk) 15:07, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

I added the logo which shows the symbols. I think a "Production notes" section would be best for this information. (See: WP:Television - Prod. Notes) It could mention the title and also note that the cast and crew in the opening credits have combinations of letters that are also chemical symbols hilighted in their names. However, I wouldn't take it so far as to list the cast, showing symbols in their names. That would be too trivial. But, I do think that the use of chemical symbols should be mentioned due to the show's element (no pun intended) of chemistry. -NatureBoyMD (talk) 05:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Series 2

I heard that this has been picked up for a second series (unfortunately, I can't remember my source). Can anyone confirm/deny this? Brooza (talk) 14:20, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

cranston alluded to it in an interview online march 9th which can be found here: http://blogs.amctv.com/breaking-bad/2008/03/live-chat-with.php

"Do you think Vince will let you stretch your legs and direct a few episodes next season? Bryan: It's a possibility." --69.81.91.18 (talk) 19:53, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Does anyone have any citations or source for the title being Southern American slang or for its definition at all? I am curious as to where this came from. (Puerca (talk) 16:55, 1 April 2008 (UTC))
