Is it for me?
A dark crime drama for viewers who like squirming at a lead whose choices are hard to defend. The humor is black and dry, and Bryan Cranston plays Walt as a timid, worn-down man whose small talk sits right beside real danger. Just after the first desert cook in the RV, Jesse dissolves a body with acid, and the two scramble to dispose of the mess.
Before you start
Season one is only seven episodes, and episode two starts seconds after the pilot; it tightens from season two on.
5 seasons, 62 episodes, 60 min each, about 62 hours so far
