How much time has passed in Breaking Bad? - Movies & TV



Unlike some shows that generally keep similar pace with real life—where a season is a year—Breaking Bad doesn't seem to. Currently (part-way though season 5), the characters were remarking that it had been a year since Walt's cancer diagnosis, though I forgot when that was relative to the premiere (if it happened 'then', or in a flashback).




How much time (in universe) has passed in each season of Bad?


Answer



Exactly two years, by the end of the 5th season.



Season 1 starts off with Walt's 50th birthday.

When Walt comes back to Albuquerque in the end of Season 5, he starts of the day by celebrating his 52nd birthday:

The show ends on the same in-universe day.
