Meghan-- Meghan: Yes. Nina: Can you hear me? Meghan: I can hear you. Nina: Okay. We’ve been having some technical difficulties; this is like our fourth time trying. Um, so, tonight we’re going to be talking about--for the very last time--Breaking Bad. We put out our episode last week to discuss the series finale “Felina”, and it was already so long when I was editing it--we got into so many discussion about the series as a whole, that it seemed best to do a series retrospective where we could kind of gather our thoughts about everything we’d experienced with the show for five years. Meghan: Sounds so traumatizing. Nina: It is! It’s very traumatizing. And so, we put up some questions no our site last week when we released the episode, and we had a few responses on Facebook. Some interesting stuff that I think is going to be pretty interesting. We had started off discussing what our favorite episode was, and I had a hard time narrowing it down, but John you have one episode that you can say is your absolute favorite. John: Mmhmm… Nina: And it is-- John: Oh, you want me to say it. [group laughter] Nina: Yeah, I setting you up. Meghan: “But I’m not telling you guys.” John: Yeah, that’s a secret.

  • Om Breaking Bad
    Splittet til atomer - om Breaking Bad Af JAN OXHOLM Det er et eksplosivt manuskript, som Vince Gilligan detonerer i pilotafsnit- tet til Breaking Bad (AMC, 2008-). Uden nogen form for introduktion falder vi ned i New Mexicos golde ørkenlandskab. Efter en kort montage dukker et par bukser op, svævende i luften og med en azurblå himmel som baggrund. De anonyme bukser lander på en støvet vej, nærmest i poetisk slowmotion, men rammes så af en ræsende autocamper, der pludselig kommer ind i bil- ledet fra venstre. Føreren af bilen er en halvnøgen mand iklædt hvide un- derbukser, gasmaske og grimme gymnasielærerbriller. Okay. Så er vi ligesom i gang. Det er den kedelige kemilærer Walter White (Bryan Cranston), som kører rundt i ørkenen på flugt fra ordensmagten. Det uforglemmelige anslag starter in medias res, og det er et typisk stiltræk i Breaking Bad. Først senere forstår vi sammenhængen, og hvorfor Walters liv er splittet til atomer. De første tre til fire minutter fra pilotafsnittet er mere eller mindre hele serien i koncentreret form. Det rummer alle de grundstof- fer, som gør Breaking Bad til en banebrydende tv-serie: galgenhumor, bi- zarre rekvisitter, gensplejsede genrer, mytologiske ørkenlandskaber, nuan- cerede karakterer og dynamiske plottwists. På mange måder ligner AMC’s tv-serie et urealiseret manuskript af Coen-brødrene, der må være grønne af misundelse over Vince Gilligans visuelle virtuositet og fandenivoldske for- tælleglæde. I begyndelsen af første sæson lever Walter faktisk et helt almindeligt fa- milieliv. Som tryghedsnarkoman går han rundt i hverdagens trummerum og ligner én stor undskyldning for sig selv. Det ændres den dag, han får stil- let diagnosen kræft og får at vide, at han kun har få år tilbage at leve i.
