TV Junkie Interview: Bob Odenkirk of AMC's 'Breaking Bad'

If you've watched TV over the past 20 years, chances are you've seen a lot of Bob Odenkirk's work. He's been a writer on "Saturday Night Live" (Chris Farley's "Matt Foley, motivational speaker who lives in a van down by the river" is one of Odenkirk's "SNL" creations), he was the co-creator and co-host with David Cross of HBO's incredible "Mr. Show with Bob and David", and after acting and writing his way through scores of other shows he's been an integral part of the last two seasons of AMC's "Breaking Bad" as Saul Goodman, the sleazeball lawyer who will do anything for his client. more ›

TV Junkie: 'SouthLAnd' Will Return! Stephen King's Project Moves Forward; Future of TV News

TV Junkie: 'SouthLAnd' Will Return! Stephen King's Project Moves Forward; Future of TV News

As anticipated, HBO's Saturday broadcast of You Don't Know Jack was phenomenal - Al Pacino was brilliant and the film was so well done, it's definitely getting Emmy nominations and probably some wins. Watch it on reruns or OnDemand. Similarly, "Breaking Bad" continues to be one of the best programs on television - last night's episode was suspenseful and intense from start to finish. Be sure to check out our interview with series star Dean Norris, who plays DEA agent Hank Schrader, who provides some great perspective on his character and the series. more ›

TV Junkie Interview: Dean Norris from 'Breaking Bad'

TV Junkie Interview: Dean Norris from 'Breaking Bad'

Dean Norris is currently thrilling us as ultra-macho DEA agent Hank Schrader on AMC's "Breaking Bad" but we've been watching this great actor for over 25 years. From "N.Y.P.D. Blue" to the "X-Files" to "The Unit" and beyond, Dean Norris has just kept popping up so we've been very pleased to get so much of him so regularly in "Breaking Bad". Norris' character, Hank, has gone through some drastic changes, as most of the characters have, he's gone from a comic element, the jovial macho guy, to a panic attack-stricken paranoid. Hank is so real and exciting, it's been a great, if not nail-biting journey. Tonight's episode of "Breaking Bad" will very much feature Hank so be sure to tune in at 10pm. more ›

TV Junkie: Interview with Anna Gunn of 'Breaking Bad'

Anna Gunn currently stars as Skyler White on AMC's Emmy and Peabody award-winning series "Breaking Bad" (Sundays at 10pm) but it was her portrayal of Martha Bullock on HBO's "Deadwood" a few years ago that cemented her as a leading lady in cutting edge television. We had the chance to speak with Anna Gunn over the phone as she was in New York City to film a guest spot on "Law & Order". We were so pleased to get the following tremendous insights into her character and the show: more ›

TV Junkie: Red Carpet at the Emmy Nominated Performer Reception

Last night the TV Junkie had an incredible time talking to some of the best performers of stage and screen at the very friendly and low key reception for Primetime Emmy Nominated Performers at Wolfgang Puck at the Pacific Design Center.
