Breaking Bad Season 3 Premiere & Television Poster

Breaking Bad, one of the best shows on television, returns to AMC this Sunday night (March 21st) for the start of its third season. It’s truly amazing how quickly Bryan Cranston was able to shake off the wholesome image he cultivated while starring on Malcolm in the Middle to truly become Breaking Bad’s Walter White, a high school chemistry teacher who turns to making meth to support his family when he learns he is dying from cancer. Cranston has since won back to back Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for this role, and they were well deserved for his stunning portrayal of an everyman pushed to the brink.


Aaron Paul (Big Love) also stars as Jesse Pinkman, a former student of Walt’s and his partner in meth making. Paul’s performance in Season 2 was so captivating, I almost wish they had given his character more screen time over Walt. Jesse’s struggles with drug addiction were interesting, exciting and depressing all at once.

I can’t wait to see what Season 3 has in store for Walt, his family and his newly expanding drug cartel. In many ways, Breaking Bad has become the blue collar equivalent of The Sopranos, with the show focusing on both Walt’s home life and crime family, and how the two effect each other. I hear Season 3 has some crazy game changers early on, so expect a bumpy ride this year!

Breaking Bad airs Sunday nights at 10/9c on AMC.

Threadless - The Smurfs Inspired T-Shirt “It’s A Hard Life”

These past two weeks Threadless has produced some killer pop culture themed tees, and “It’s A Hard Life” continues that trend! This smurfy design takes a very unique look at Papa Smurf’s life by detailing his clan’s many struggles in the form of a highly detailed body tattoo. I’ve got to say, this is one version of Papa Smurf I never thought I’d see.

It’s A Hard Life by Alex Solis

I think my favorite part of the design is either the dead Azrael on Papa’s lower back or the P-A-P-A finger tattoos on his left hand. This is definitely not your parent’s Smurfs! As a reminder, the Threadless 10th Anniversary Sale is still going on and all t-shirts are on sale for just $10!

You can purchase this Smurfs inspired “It’s A Hard Life” at Threadless.com on sale for $10 (normally it retails for $18). The shirt comes in both guys and girls styles, sizes S-2XL.

Threadless - Star Wars Inspired T-Shirt “Gentlemen Love Light Swords”

Yesterday Threadless launched its 10th Anniversary Sale, and for 48 hours all t-shirts in stock are on sale for just $10! For those of you who love pop culture themed t-shirts this is a killer deal because Threadless has recently produced some awesome tees inspired by some of The Blot’s favorite movies, television shows and comics. Last week they released a Batman themed tee, and now comes the Star Wars inspired “Gentlemen Love Light Swords.”

As you can see, “Gentlemen Love Light Swords” takes some seriously old school photos of men playing golf and baseball and replaces their clubs and bats with lightsabers. It’s a cool idea that I think turned out even better after being printed on a crème t-shirt.

You can purchase the comic book inspired “Gentlemen Love Light Swords” at Threadless.com on sale for $10 (normally it retails for $18). The shirt comes in both guys and girls styles, sizes S-2XL.
