We are a little less than two weeks away from the return of "Breaking Bad," and AMC has just debuted its first full clip from the fifth season.

While the video doesn't contain any major spoilers for the first episode, there are some glaring references to season four's finale, so if you haven't caught up, go watch that instead.

'Lost' Alum Elizabeth Mitchell Re-Teams With J.J. Abrams For 'Revolution'

Posted 7/2/12 3:30 pm EST by in News, TV

Elizabeth Mitchell

If you're a fan of "Lost," you're going to love this news.

We all loved to love Elizabeth Mitchell as Juliet on the genre-changing mystery show, and now a new report has come out saying she'll be reteaming with "Lost" creator J.J. Abrams on one of his many, many upcoming projects. Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Mitchell is going to be joining the cast of Abrams' new NBC show, "Revolution."

According to EW, Mitchell will be playing "the compassionate and concerned long-absent mother of the show’s two young leads, Charlie (Tracy Spiridakos) and Danny (Graham Rogers), who set off on a dangerous cross-country journey." As "Breaking Bad" fans, we feel morally obligated to mention that this show also stars Giancarlo Esposito. It doesn't sound like there are any supernatural or sci-fi elements at play here, but then again "Lost" started out as a show about a group of people stranded on an island after a plane crash.

'Breaking Bad' Season Five Trailer Goes 'Boom'!

Posted 6/27/12 8:00 am EST by in TV

Breaking Bad

"You're a time bomb, tick, ticking away, and I have no intention of being around for the boom."

These are the ominous words of the always wise Mike Ehrmantraut from the new season of "Breaking Bad." The line is the centerpiece of a new trailer (via The Playlist) that teases the fifth season of the show.

SPOILER AHEAD

Thankfully, Mike wasn't around for the boom that took out big boss Gus at the end of season four, leaving his allegiances up in the air. From the sound of this trailer, the muscle might be a little too smart to throw his hat in with Heisenberg.

Bryan Cranston Calls 'Breaking Bad' Movie Talk 'Not Far-Fetched'

Posted 6/19/12 12:00 pm EST by in News, TV

Breaking Bad

In a new interview with the LA Times, "Breaking Bad" star and supporting player in every movie of the last two years, Bryan Cranston spoke about the possibility that 16 hour-long episodes might not be enough for Vince Gilligan to wrap up the story of Walter White and his little meth business.

Previously, the show runner openly talked about fearing that he wouldn't have enough story to fill out the rest of the order, but now it seems the opposite may be true.

Interestingly, talk of extending the life of "Breaking Bad" has led Cranston to admit that he's open to the possibility of a movie.

Breaking Bad

This post will discuss plot points from the previous season of "Breaking Bad."

The explosive demise of former drug king Gustavo Fring only seems like it happened a few short weeks ago, but that flurry of water cooler conversations was last October. We are now less than a month away from the beginning of the end for Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.

That being the case, promotional materials for part one of the final season have begun to trickle out, and today, three sets of images popped on the web. The photos comes from Vulture, EW.com, and TVGuide, and frankly don't help us with our painful need for more Heisenberg.

Mads

The Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen has found himself on a bit of a hot streak lately. In the last month, the former Bond baddie has found himself cast as the villain for Marvel's upcoming Norse sequel, "Thor 2," and he won a Best Actor award at Cannes for his role in "The Hunt." Now TVLine is reporting that Mikkelsen has just signed on to play one of the most notorious villains of all time.

According to TVLine's report, Mikkelsen will play Hannibal Lecter in the new NBC series based on the characters from Thomas Harris' book "Red Dragon." The series is said to take a contemporary spin on the tale, which was previously made into two films, "Manhunter" with Brian Cox as Lecter and "Red Dragon" where Anthony Hopkins reprised the role he made famous.

Mikkelsen will star in the show opposite Hugh Dancy.
