Biographical note
Alan Sepinwall is currently the television critic for Uproxx.com. Prior to Uproxx and HitFix, Sepinwall spent fourteen years as a columnist for Newark, NJ's The Star Ledger. His thoughts on television have appeared in the New York Times, Time magazine, Grantland.com, AOLTV.com, and Variety. Slate has said Sepinwall “changed the nature of television criticism” and called him the “acknowledged king of the form.” Sepinwall is also author of The Revolution Was Televised. The New Yorker called it “a smart and substantive walk through the past fifteen years of television drama.”I discovered many things in this book's fascinating and entertaining pages of analysis on the show—chief among them is that Alan knows more about <i>Breaking Bad</i> than I do.
- Bryan Cranston,
The five seasons of <i>Breaking Bad</i> constitute one of the most exhilirating rides in the history of American television, and there's no better companion on that journey than Alan Sepinwall. When it comes to Walt, Jesse, and their Albuquerque adventures, Sepinwall's writing is 99 percent pure.
- Maureen Ryan, television critic for Variety,
Nobody mapped the broad journey and the intricacies of this show like Alan Sepinwall. Both when I was working on the show and when I was just a fan, his weekly pieces were essential reading. What a treat to now have them in a binge-able 'box set.'
- Rian Johnson, writer and director,
I appreciate Alan's ability to think like a filmmaker and a storyteller; understanding the motivation of the camera to the arc of a character, he acknowledges every aspect of the storytelling process. Alan's insightful critiques enhance the viewer's experience.
- Michelle MacLaren, director and producer,
For those of us on the inside, making <i>Breaking Bad</i> was a wild, emotional ride. Through it all, from the cult-show beginnings to the finale, Alan Sepinwall's keen eye and attention to detail made him just about the most perceptive critic writing about the show. Now where's his book on <i>Better Call Saul</i>?
