Breaking Bad: "Fly"
It's a tentpole of the golden age of television, so we had to get to Vince Gilligan's crime thriller eventually...and that meant doing its most divisive episode, a Rian Johnson-directed low-budget chamber piece all about catching a fly! We dig into Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul's performances, the inventive camerawork, an even lower-budget Spanish remake, and why this episode is not at all filler. Plus, we have an interview with Daniel Roemer, creator of the Amazon Prime TV series Chaser, about creating high concept television like this!
