Not sure if any of you are fans of this show, but I think it's great. In fact, I really like the AMC channel as they come up with a lot of good television, like Mad Men.
Sort of a parallel series to Weeds, without the same humor. A overqualified Chemistry teacher finds out he has terminal cancer and potentially six months to live. He has a pregnant wife and two kids in school, that he wants to protect while he still can.
Solution: He starts cooking meth and learns the business. He has to deal with all sorts of odd balls, and drug gangs who hate him, because his product is so much better than anyone else's and is in high demand. As problems come up he often turns to solutions that you wouldn't think of. Solving problems through Chemistry.
Can't get into a chemical warehouse to get the chemicals you need. No problem, burn the lock off with Thermite.
Drug dealer decides he wants you dead, you make him a present of RICIN.
He's not a bad man, he just wants to help his family and needs money fast.
