Breaking Bad

I know the show’s theme is somewhat brutal and bleak, i.e., mild-mannered chemistry teacher gets incurable cancer and turns to cooking meth to leave money for his family after he’s gone, but this is one great show.  I caught up with Seasons 1 and 2 via On Demand, Season 3 is running now, and last night’s episode had me jumping out of my seat.  There’s just nothing this compelling and well-done on TV anywhere right now.

Here’s a great recap from Sepinwall at nj.com.
