2. Jesse Pinkman was initially supposed to be killed off by the end of season one, but Aaron Paul’s performance changed minds enough to make him a massively significant part of the series.
3. There is meaning behind the color schemes of Breaking Bad. Walter WHITE usually wears GREEN, Skyler wears BLUE, which is also the color of the crystal. Jesse PINKman’s clothing is often yellow & red, Hank & Gomez ORANGE, Marie PURPLE and the newborn Whites’ daughter, PINK. Also, Walt lives on Negra Arroyo Lane – which translates to BLACK Creek.
4. The classic, blue Breaking Bad meth was visible in a scene of The Walking Dead. Specifically in Daryl Dixon’s bag of pre-apocalypse acquired drugs.
