Breaking Bad Final Episodes UK Air Date Confirmed

The final eight episodes of Breaking Bad will hit Netflix in the UK the day after they air in the States, the web-streaming company confirmed today. Starting on Monday, August 12th, a new episode will drop each week just hours after it has aired on AMC Stateside, welcome news for Breaking Bad fans over here.

No UK broadcaster has heavily supported the hit show in the past with most viewers relying on Netflix (or other nefarious means) for their Heisenberg fix. This instant syndication solution could prove to be a big hit amongst networks keen to stem the tide of piracy seen for shows such as Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead that suffer staggered international air dates.

"Netflix has been instrumental in making Breaking Bad the success that it is," says series creator Vince Gilligan in a quote on The Verge. "I am delighted that fans [in the UK] will be able to enjoy the end of Breaking Bad on Netflix so soon after it airs in the US."

So are we Vince, so are we.
