Joanna Robinson and Rob Mahoney leave their family behind to revisit the Breaking Bad episode “Ozymandias.” They discuss why it’s such an important piece of TV history, the Rian Johnson of it all, and their relationship with the AMC drama (1:49). Along the way, they talk about how the show would’ve been remembered had this episode been its series finale and its lasting legacy on how dramatic television is structured (12:11). Later, they give out a handful of awards, including best line, most iconic shot, favorite overlooked detail, best fit, and much more (28:22).
