There are plenty of shows with a claim to being the greatest TV series ever made, but few with as many points of evidence to back it up as Breaking Bad<\/a>. The hit crime thriller series hails from creator Vince Gilligan<\/a>, and it stars Bryan Cranston<\/a> and Aaron Paul<\/a>, who both earned several Emmy Awards<\/a> for their performance in the show. Breaking Bad first premiered in 2008, and it aired five seasons before going off the air in 2013 \u2014 not something you see much of anymore, in a new era of TV where many shows take years between seasons. The show holds a nearly perfect 96% from critics and an even stronger 97% from audiences on the aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes, and it\u2019s been streaming exclusively on Netflix<\/a> for years.<\/p>\n

There have been several Breaking Bad spin-offs to come after the original show. The first was Better Call Saul<\/a>, another series spun off Bob Odenkirk<\/a>\u2019s fan-favorite character, Saul Goodman. A Breaking Bad movie titled El Camino<\/a> was released in 2019, and while it was mostly well-liked by critics and audiences, most agreed that it failed to capture the same magic as the original series. Another Breaking Bad project will give the franchise another chance to recapture that magic, as series star Dean Norris<\/a> took to his personal X account<\/a> to officially announce Do What You\u2019re Gonna Do: The Definitive Oral History of Breaking Bad. The book will be released later this year on November 3. Norris plays Hank Schrader in Breaking Bad, Walter\u2019s brother-in-law and the DEA agent who spends most of the five seasons tracking Walter and his blue meth. Norris says the book is \u201cpacked with never-before-heard stories and exclusive interviews with the incredible people who brought the show to life.\u201d<\/p>\n

What Does This Mean for the Future of \u2018Breaking Bad\u2019?<\/p>\n

A new oral history of Breaking Bad releasing more than 10 years after the show went off the air is proof that it\u2019s still a major cash cow for AMC<\/a> and Netflix. Both spin-offs were also highly successful, so there\u2019s no reason to think the book won\u2019t be too. It\u2019s unlikely that Gilligan will return for a new Breaking Bad-adjacent TV project anytime soon, though. The masterful television scribe is hard at work writing the second season of his hit Apple TV sci-fi series, Pluribus<\/a>.<\/p>\n
