10 TV Show Mistakes Directors Left In Because The Acting Was Too Good
7. The Door Jam Was Too Good To Leave Out (Breaking Bad)
Despite being known for their frankly absurd attention to detail as creators, Vince Gilligan and the rest of the team behind Breaking Bad still weren't exactly against keeping in the odd unplanned development if they felt it fit the story they were trying to tell.
And in the case of that time Jesse Pinkman and Walter White were attempting to flee the cops during Season Two's Better Call Saul episode, one unexpected awkward occurrence could not have worked out any better.
With a flustered Aaron Paul trying his best to get back into the vehicle containing Bryan Cranston's Walt, the car door suddenly decided it didn't want to play ball. This soon led to the pair, who refused to break character, desperately trying to get the thing open so they could rapidly vacate the area, only adding to the palpable tension felt throughout the scene involving the DEA closing in on the two.
So, it's not hard to see why director Terry McDonough felt that this seemingly unanticipated malfunctioning door was too perfect to leave out of the already chaotic sequence.
