Poll: Which AMC wife is the worst?

Breaking Bad is back!

You can pour over all the scheming and darkness with EW’s recap — and Ken Tucker’s review — but there’s another matter we want to discuss here in PopWatch: Are the wives on AMC shows just the worst people ever? Skyler got us thinking so last night.

Sure, you can argue Skyler is doing the best she can (her husband did just murder someone, after all). But her dealings with Ted last season were not the best.

You’ve also got Lori on The Walking Dead, and her affair with Shane. Of course, Betty Draper on Mad Men is certainly no dream. Although Don was less than an ideal husband (understatement of the year), Betty is a child with little interest in her own children. For argument’s sake, let’s also throw Sarah Linden from The Killing into the mix. Yes, yes, she’s not technically married, but she’s got to be in this poll for being the world’s most MIA fiancé last season — Rosie killer on the loose or not.

Mirror, mirror on the wall: Who’s the worst wife of them all? READ FULL STORY »

Comic-Con kicks off today, July 12, in San Diego. And if you’re not lucky enough to be in San Diego for all the geektastic celebrations (or if you’re just not that into that kind of thing), we have the solution. Take a look at what you can be doing instead.

1. Catch up on Breaking Bad before the fifth season begins on July 15. Everyone has told you that you need to be watching AMC’s drama about a high school chemistry teacher turned meth kingpin. So why aren’t you? Thanks to this handy schedule, you still have time to see all four seasons AND watch the premiere Sunday at 10 p.m.

Dish Network will cut off AMC Networks tomorrow

AMC and DISH have been playing a bitter game of mutual brinksmanship all month long. First, Dish Network banished AMC and its sibling-networks IFC and WE down to the lower reaches of the dial. Then, AMC used the overflowing gravitas of Don Draper to tell everyone that DISH was being totes lame. This was all in good fun, we thought, just the way that media companies do business. But today, DISH implemented the nuclear option: The company announced that, as of 11:59 p.m. tomorrow, AMC Networks will be eradicated from the DISH universe. That means AMC, WE, and IFC will all be gone, although the press release is quick to point out that AMC will be replaced by HDNet Movies. Now, while HDNet Movies does not currently carry two of the greatest TV shows ever made, it is playing Simon Birch tonight. Twice. READ FULL STORY »

Walter White endorses high school student in election -- VIDEO

Tags: , , TV

When Walter White tells you to do something, it’s probably best that you listen. White’s real-life alter-ego – Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston — filmed a short, in-character video for a high school election that would make anyone think twice about voting for the other candidate. “It’s come to my attention that some of you have been persuaded perhaps to vote for Summer Kennedy by a colleague of mine. Or I should say former colleague. Don’t make the same mistake.” According to a post on Reddit, Giancarlo Esposito, who played meth kingpin Gus Fring on the series, filmed an as-yet-unseen endorsement for Kennedy. And we all know who wins in the Fring-White showdown.

TV-inspired Valentine's Day cards: Share your TV addiction with your loved one!

by
Tags: , , , , TV

If your idea of a romantic gesture is eating the blood-drenched heart of a dead horse (à la Daenerys on Game of Thrones), now you can share that odd character trait of yours with an equally weird Valentine’s Day card!

CollegeHumor, whose musings on pop culture rival the folks at Funny or Die and The Onion, has released a series of utterly hilarious Valentine’s Day cards inspired by television, guaranteed to make your loved one chuckle — if he/she gets the reference.

The cards — which highlight Parks and Recreation, Community, Downton Abbey and more – will probably only make sense if you’re a fan of the show being parodied, but given the variety of choices, I’m sure you’ll giggle at least once. (They come courtesy of the site’s resident masterpiece-maker Caldwell Tanner, whose work has probably been making you laugh out loud for years.)

PopWatchers, will you be printing these out and giving them to your significant other? What are some other TV shows that would make a kick-ass Valentine?
