‘Breaking Bad’ Renewed for Season 5

AMC announced that they were renewing ‘Breaking Bad’ for a fourth season. During the first two seasons of the show, Bryan Cranston won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, which marked the only time an actor from basic cable has ever been recognized with back-to-back Emmy Awards. Joel Stillerman, Senior Vice President of original programming, production and digital content had the following to say on renewing the show,
“AMC’s ‘Breaking Bad’ is one of the most layered and intense dramas on television today,. The critical acclaim and strong audience growth we’ve seen in season three reinforce that this is the kind of exceptional original storytelling AMC has become known for providing to audiences. Vince Gilligan and his team deliver bold storylines that truly push the psychic envelope and create a mesmerizing, exhilarating television experience. We look forward to an incredible fourth season.”
