Breaking Bad will return Aug. 11 for its final season

AMC announced today that Breaking Bad will return for the series' final eight episodes Aug. 11 at 9 p.m. It's a bit later than last year's July debut of this season's first eight episodes, but the longer we have Breaking Bad in our lives the better.

The series, starring three-time Emmy winner Bryan Cranston and two-time Emmy winner Aaron Paul, will be followed by the after show Talking Bad. The format is modeled after The Walking Dead and Talking Dead, where a host and panel of actors will dissect the episodes live. AMC will use these final eight episodes to launch their new series, the crime drama Low Winter Sun, which airs at 10 p.m. and will lead into Talking Bad.
