AMC to begin airing "Breaking Bad" binge in August

/ CBS/AP

No new episodes of "Breaking Bad"? No problem for the AMC network.

Vince Gilligan: "Breaking Bad" was "lightning in a bottle"

AMC said Tuesday that it will fill its Sunday night schedule for nearly two months with reruns of the popular series that starred Bryan Cranston, which aired its last original episode last September. Every episode will be shown during the network's "Breaking Bad Binge."

Episodes will air from 5 p.m. to 1 a.m. every Sunday night, from Aug. 10 through Oct. 5.

AMC will add some extras, including interviews with cast and crew members prior to each episode.

A "Breaking Bad" spinoff series, "Better Call Saul," is currently in the works and will premiere next year, starring Bob Odenkirk as Saul Goodman and potentially including a cameo from Cranston as Walter White.
