‘Breaking Bad’ To Enter Guinness Book of World Records With Justin Bieber, One Direction and Taylor Swift
"Breaking Bad" is all set to become the greatest show ever in the history, thanks to "Guinness World Records 2014." The Emmys is not happening until Sept. 22, but we think the verdict for the greatest show is out, and it is none other than "Breaking Bad."
"Breaking Bad" has been awarded as the world's highest-rated TV series. The show received a metascore of 99 out of 100 on MetaCritic.com. In the past, "Mad Men," "Sons of Anarchy" and "Downton Abbey" have made it in the "Guinness Book of World Records."
Ever since the pilot of the show hit the airwaves, fans have loved the show like true lovers and welcomed it with open arms. Fantastic reviews of the episodes have made this show a grand success. There are cult followers of "Breaking Bad" across the globe and it will be a proud moment for them to see the name of the show inked in the book.
"Breaking Bad" is currently midway through the second half of the final season.
"My writers and I discussed our ending for many months, maybe even years, and everything was on the table. The happiest of happy endings, the saddest of sad endings, the open ending; we discussed every possibility. All we cared about, though, was that it be satisfying, and in a sense satisfaction operates independently from ideas of happy and sad, it's removed from emotion," said Vince Gilligan in an interview with Metro.
"I can tell you for sure it is an ending though, we have not taken the Sopranos route [which infamously cut to black] here; it's a very exciting ride and these last eight episodes certainly do not go out with a whimper," added Gilligan as reported by Metro.
The show is slated to end on Sept. 29, though rumours suggest that a spin-off show is in the pipeline.
Justin Bieber will be in the record book once again as "Youngest Solo Artist to Have Five U.S. No. 1 Albums" namely, "My World 2.0," "Never Say Never: The Remixes," "Under the Mistletoe," "Believe," and "Believe Acoustic hit No. 1" as reported by Hollywood Reporter.
Taylor Swift for "First Solo Female with Two Million-Selling Weeks on the U.S. Albums Chart," "Speak Now" sold 1.04 million and "Red" sold 1.20 million copies.
"Most Twitter Followers for a Pop Group" as of May 16, 2013 goes to One Direction. The band has more than 14.6 million followers.
