That nod to The Walking Dead in Breaking Bad’s gory season finale was genius.
That was entirely AMC. They had that planned, but actually kept all of us in the dark. We just knew that [Walking Dead special makeup effects artist] Greg Nitocera and some of his team were going to be in Albuquerque on Breaking Bad, that he was creating some effect for them.
The victim, Gus Fring, looked like a cross between Two-Face and the Terminator, which is interesting, because you produced some Terminator films.
[Giggles.] There are multiple homages in there, I guess.
There’s been a lot of curiosity about this season for obvious reasons. We know new executive producer Glen Mazzara has a pedigree [The Shield, Hawthorne], but what makes him a good replacement for Frank Darabont?
Well, Glen wrote the fifth episode last season. So that was as we were finding our feet — we were really lucky. He wasn’t available last season, so he just did that freelance episode.
