Win Breaking Bad season three on DVD

Ed Williamson

Everyone likes free stuff. We do, certainly. In fact it's going to take some effort not to nick one of the three copies of Breaking Bad season three we've got here to give away and keep them for ourselves. Don't think we won't do it. [Disclaimer: we definitely won't do it.]

Competitions: obviously a fairly transparent way for us to pimp ourselves out to PR companies for hits. Come and look at us, we say, come look, and you'll be rewarded with a shiny new thing. Everyone's a winner. Except the people who don't win: they're all LOSERS.

But here's a thing: a brilliant, brilliant prize. Breaking Bad, criminally ignored by our TV channels, or just shoved on at stupid o'clock at night when no one other than, well, me is actually watching, is finally beginning to almost semi-catch up over here. Season three has leapfrogged an airing on UK TV and is instead coming straight out on DVD over here on Monday 14th May.

It's a show that fits better on DVD anyway, because once you've cut yourself a slice of it, you won't want to wait 12 weeks to get through it all. You will be greedy for it, like a meth-head, punching small children and stealing from the vulnerable for your next fix.

Lucky, then, that we have a holy trinity of DVD copies to give away, one of which can be yours, all yours. Just click here before midnight on Friday 18th May and answer a question so easy it borders on an insult to the intelligence of you and those who carried out your education. You're welcome.
Don't actually know what Breaking Bad is but were just lured here like a moth, bumping endlessly against the light bulb of the promise of free stuff? Read this bit then.

Experience the darkest and most dangerous Breaking Bad season yet when Sony Pictures Home Entertainment brings Breaking Bad: The Complete Third Season to DVD on May 14. The critically acclaimed series stars Bryan Cranston, winner of three Best Actor Emmys® for his role as Walter White, chemistry teacher turned drug dealer and Aaron Paul (TV’s “Big Love”), Emmy winner (Best Supporting Actor) for his portrayal of Walter’s partner-in-crime, Jesse Pinkman. Breaking Bad also stars Anna Gunn (TV’s “Deadwood”), Dean Norris (Terminator 2: Judgment Day), Betsy Brandt (TV’s “Back When We Were Grownups”), and RJ Mitte. Featuring all 13 episodes, the third season release is packed with special features including deleted scenes, cast & crew commentary on five episodes, four all-new behind-the-scenes featurettes, mini video podcasts and much more.

Created by writer/director/producer Vince Gilligan (TV’s “The X-Files”), who also serves as executive producer with Academy Award® winner Mark Johnson (Rain Man, 1988 Best Picture), Breaking Bad follows the story of Walter White (Cranston), a high school chemistry teacher who discovers he is dying of lung cancer. Desperate to pay for his cancer treatments and to secure his family’s financial security, Walt discovers a new sense of fearlessness. He teams with former student, now drug dealer Jesse Pinkman (Paul) to use his scientific knowledge for financial gain, but soon finds he’s trapped in a sinister world of drugs and crime.

Breaking Bad: The Complete Third Season is out on DVD May 14th.
