Breaking Bad: Season 1 (Blu-ray)
Emmy Award winner Bryan Cranston stars as Walter White, a down-on-his-luck chemistry teacher struggling to make ends meet for his wife (Anna Gunn) and physically challenged son (RJ Mitte). Everything changes when Walter receives a startling diagnosis: terminal lung cancer. With only a few years to live and nothing to lose, Walter uses his training as a chemist to cook and sell crystal meth with one of his former students (Aaron Paul). As his status grows, so do his lies, but Walt will stop at nothing to make sure his family is taken care of after he's gone, even if it means putting all their lives on the line.

Great show!! - brentb
My brother told me about this series several weeks ago. I initially scoffed. A "dark comedy" about a dying high school chemistry teacher who turns to producing meth in order to provide for his family...with the main character being played by the dad from Malcolm in the Middle? I thought the premise was odd and the casting suspect. How wrong I was.
I'm quite choosy with TV shows--one has to be, with the glut of choices available. I took a chance on Breaking Bad and was completely hooked. As others have stated in their reviews, everything from the dialogue, to the cinematography, to the plot, to the acting makes for a cringe-inducing, mesmerizing, guffaw-producing gem. The lead actors (Bryan Cranston of M in the M fame and Aaron Paul) are phenomenal. Breaking Bad is completely worthy of the praise it's earned and so much more.Breaking Bad never felt so Good - movie_goer
Brilliant, AMC has struck GOLD!!!!
Breaking BAD reserects Bryan Cranstan's damaged career that face plummited thanks to Frankie Muniz's squeaky voice and bad writers of Malcolm in the Middle.
Thankfully in Hollyweird theres plenty of edge for 2nd comings and multiple comebacks. Breaking Bad was Cranstans over due and most welcoming break into 'serious' acting. Who knew that the fumbling, idiotic father could be AMC's ticket to great rating and ultimately earn him emmy nods?!Awesome - CalgaryFlorida
This show is so well done, it has the perfect balance between relationships with his family and his alter-ego drug friends. Even all the people that play the Meth users it seems almost impossible that they are actors. This show will not disappoint ZIP this NOW.
