Breaking Bad

I take that back. I've watched a few episodes now, and it's basically MacGyver + high school chemistry.

Or, to put it another way, Breaking Bad is to Revenge of the Nerds what Christian Bale's Batman is to Val Kilmer's Batman.

The MacGuyver stuff largely falls away as the series goes on.

DO NOT PIGEONHOLE THIS PROGRAMME.

OK, OK, I'm into the second season now, and will admit it's not the worst thing I've ever watched.

Addendum: It's like MacGyver + high school chemistry + exploding turtles.

But I still say the overarching theme is overplayed these days.

OK, plus half of Mr. Show. Bob Odenkirk just appeared onscreen, but in my mind, this show just improved EXPONENTIALLY.

Bugs already thinks is the best show in history. This is his way of expressing it.

Actually, I have no idea who the fuck Bugs is. Bugs? BUGS!!!?? Who are you?

Bugs was calling JC when it was dial-up. When the Washington Redskins were winning Super Bowls. You better watch out, he's OG. He's going to ask who the fuck YOU are.

I thought pinback was an alt of your creation, conjured out of thin air so you would have someone to argue with since Matt Gracie is no longer around.

Not to add fuel to the fire, but when I went to Denver to meet up with Jonsey, Pinback was mysteriously out of town ...
