I just got this wonderful bundle of goodness – the season four Breaking Bad press kit, with the first few episodes of the new season – in the mail last week, and, as tough as it’s been, I’m saving it for a little marathon during the long July 4th weekend. So more on that next week …

In the meantime, AMC has just released a new season four teaser trailer, in which Emmy-winning stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul chat about how the season ahead is darker, more action-packed and, believe it or not, even more intense than seasons 1-3. Check it out, and continue to count down the days until season four premieres on July 17.
