TV preview: 'Breaking Bad' takes a big break
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2012, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.

Over the first 51 episodes of "Breaking Bad," Walter White (Bryan Cranston, below) has morphed from nice guy/cancer victim to drug lord/cold-blooded killer — a journey that has made for one of TV's top shows. The annoying news is that AMC is splitting the final season. After Sunday's episode, we'll have to wait until the summer of 2013 for the final eight episodes.
