RedEye | Show Patrol

Welcome to Show Patrol, where I, Curt Wagner, hope to spread the joy of lazy days and nights in front of the TV. I hope to make each and every one of you a happy, contented couch potato. With all my TV viewing, I figure I can help steer you to the best shows and away from the worst ones. Sometimes I’ll post longer reviews of shows I’ve written about in RedEye, as well as my thoughts on trends, cancellations or any other TV news. I’ll also break down the mysteries of series like "Heroes." Feel free to e-mail me any TV questions. If I don't know the answer, I'll try to find out for you.

AMC breaking bad again

If you like Bryan Cranston’s "Breaking Bad" character, Walter White (above), go to RedEye’s Best TV Character tourney today to vote.

AMC ordered a 13-episode second season of its darkly funny original series, “Breaking Bad.”

That's great news. This is an excellent show that I hope more people will see next season. In the drama, Bryan Cranston plays New Mexico chemistry teacher Walter White, and meek family man who gets fed up with his life and becomes a drug manufacturer and seller.

“‘Breaking Bad’ is a powerful, intelligent and thought-provoking series that clearly resonated with viewers and critics alike,” AMC’s Charlie Collier said in a press release. “We’re excited for a second season of ‘Breaking Bad’ with new and provocative storylines that will delve deeper into the next chapter in the life of Walter White.”

The seven-episode first season premiered in January. The network did not say when Season 2 would begin.
