Theology and Breaking Bad explores the brutal and seemingly
nihilistic moral landscape of the AMC neo-Western crime drama
Breaking Bad (2008-2013) with insights into the characters, their
struggles, and the moral consequences resulting from their actions.
Throughout the book, the contributors find telltale traces of
theological themes that have been woven into the storylines by the
writers and directors and bring them out for the reader in ten
essays that span topics from Greek mythology to the Hebrew Bible,
and extend into Eastern and Western Christendom. Readers will find
provocative reflections that will add to their appreciation of this
show, as well as its spinoff series, Better Call Saul (2015-2022).
This volume also advances academic inquiries in such fields as
popular culture and theology, hermeneutics, biblical studies,
Patristics, film studies, diasporic and colonial studies, and
explores such themes as antihero redemption, penance, salvation,
and forgiveness. This book will be of interest to both academics
and fans alike.
