Breaking Bad is absolutely brilliant....season 2 is even better than season 1. Season 3 is fantastic and I can't wait for 4. Season 5, the final season is being released in the US in July with 8 episodes this year and another 8 in 2013.

Curiously addictive. I was disposed not to buy the second series but found I needed to know what happened next.
Look how far we've come. We started watching this show with a pretty simple, though hard to believe, premise. A teacher needed extra money to leave behind for his family in the event of his death. He cooked meth with his former student and by the end, he had earned the respect and business of Albuquerque's craziest drug dealer, Tuco, by blowing out the side of his office. Of course it sounds silly written out like that, but the source of Breaking Bad's power isn't its realism, its realism based in its fantasy; at the end of the day, it's still a TV show. Walt had set out with a goal and achieved part of it by the end of the first season, but by the final scene, we were given that glimpse of just the trouble Walt and Jesse had just put themselves into, a glimpse of what was in their future. That is, Season 1 was a preview. It was a taste of what the series was about, from the character development to the explosive scenes to the use of science in every day life to the tortuous limbo Walt had put his family in. Season 2 was a beautiful thing, maybe one of the best seasons in television history. Even though we knew the show for its explosiveness, its ability to fool us and to build on characters, it enriched its soil, providing richer loams from which to grow. Jesse has always been a good character at heart. No doubt that Season 2 was tough on him. He moved from a wannabe tough guy to a kingpin poser to a heroin junkie. He was kicked around a lot, physically and mentally. He crashed through a port-a-potty while breaking into an impoundment lot so he could find a place to sleep for the night. He lost the only girl he's ever loved. We also found out just how much Walt cares for him, though, and there's reason to believe he'll be back on his feet in Season 3. Perhaps he'll attain redemption before the series is over. Skyler meanwhile proved she's just as smart and strong as she appeared to be in season one. Hank was crass, but loveable, and showed that his interior isn't as tough as his exterior. The rest of the cast has proven to be well-rounded characters, capable of good and bad, everyone having their two sides, but each one with their own line drawn in the sand.Read full review
It's sick the lengths Americans will go to to fund basic healthcare. And they hold the NHS up to riducule. At least I know how to make a few hundred thousand dollars our of a chemistry set. This is one sick, funny, informative, highly addictive socially irresponsible TV series. Lock up your medicine cabinets...
Excellent, gripping and thrilling and scary!!! Am thoroughly enjoying this series, although it is hard to watch as it is quite violent but very upto date and realistic. The characters are very good and there is also quite a lot of humour in the script which keeps you from taking it all too seriously.
