Breaking Bad season fiveThere’s trouble brewing between AMC and Sony television over the fifth (and likely final) season of Breaking Bad.

The two sides have been negotiating over the next season and AMC reportedly wants cost cuts that would include chopping the fifth season down from the usual 13 episodes to six or eight installments. Creator Vince Gilligan and his team reportedly rejected that idea. That’s led to Sony sending out feelers to at least three other cable channels to gauge interest in picking up the series.

Both AMC and Sony indicate that they want to work out a deal.

Understandably, it would be highly unlikely for another outlet to want to take over the show for only one more season.
