BREAKING BAD Renewed By AMC For Third Season

At least not all critically-acclaimed television series are canceled. AMC has picked up “Breaking Bad” for a third season after just four episodes into the second batch:

Following a well-received first season that earned the series a Peabody Award and an Emmy for star Bryan Cranston, “Breaking’” second season has garnered even more critical acclaim and commercial success.

The second-season opener of the Sony TV-produced series drew 1.7 million viewers, up 21% from the first-season premiere.

I’ve heard good things on this one. Might be time to catch up through Netflix.
