Breaking Bad Season 5/Final Season

When I bought the Season Pass for season 5 of Breaking Bad several months ago, I seem to recall that the episode list included the so-called "final season" episodes.
Now that those final season episodes are about to run, however, I notice that they are no longer included in my season 5 season pass. Instead, they're part of a new season pass that I would need to purchase.
First, am I just remembering wrong? Were the final episodes of Breaking Bad ever part of the season 5 season pass? If I'm wrong, then this is a non-issue, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
Second, if I am remembering right, shouldn't I get the final season episodes without having to pay for them (again)?

I feel lied too.
As a digital consumer I was of the belief I was being good and purchased or "licensed" the 5th season of breaking bad.
However, despite being a company who wants customers to play fair and purchase their content, itunes seems to fine with break rules to meet their needs.
If "licensing" digital content is the way we will be doing buisness, then companies should understand that misrepresenting the product details is not a very good way to discourage pirating the content.
This was my first time getting a season pass:
I am very disappointed with this service.
I also am unhappy that I will not see the second half of season 5 for quite a while.
I will have to wait until it appears on netflix. I also it is very unlikely I will purchase a season pass for any show ever again.
Sincerely,
Steven Lucey

  • Unable to purchase breaking bad final season

    Apple TV (ATV) will not allow purchase of Breaking Bad Final Season. ATV demands I go to the computer and authorize.  Did that and still get the finger.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check your location, region and time zone are correct, also try logging out of your iTunes account and back in again.

  • Has anyone managed to watch Breaking Bad Season 5 on ATV without cursing?

    I am getting a lot of green pixel lines, pixalation in general, ghost images, overlapping layers, all kinds of digital distortion. I suspect the latest firmware because Netflix is really smooth and all HD.

    I got the email and downloaded 2 copies of the behind the scenes clip, as well. Can we talk about how RIDICULOUS this is? I paid $23, and Amazon Instant has the episode already, and has for HOURS. Not to mention, it doesn't even give you all of season 5. Season 5 IS the final season. This is honestly ridiculous and incredibly disappointing. I can't even watch the behind the scenes yet, because it will spoil the actual episode which isn't out yet. It's not even consistent in release time. Last week, this time, I already had my post-Breaking-Bad-episode glow. This week, this time, it's more of an angry, unattractive, red.

  • Problems with the pre-purchased last season of Breaking Bad!

    I purchased the upcoming eight episodes of Breaking Bad including sneak previews etc., but i could only download 101: The Transformation of Walt to Heisenberg and 102: Final Season Sneak Peek. Can't load videos 103, 104 and yesterday's episode.

    Hi, commander.jn. 
    If "Check for available downloads" are showing nothing available, try accessing purchases via the quick links section on the iTunes store to see if you can download the episode manually.  Below I have included and article that shows you how to download past purchases.

    Also, there could be a delay in the content being released or an issue with an Apple service that can be verified here.

  • Could not get Breaking Bad HD Season 1 refund

    Right after buying Breaking Bad Season 1 HD on the UK store, I did some research and learned that the pilot of the Season 1 is actually censored.
    Since this was not advertised I asked a refund and was denied by Apple support.
    Is there anything I could do ? I usually have a good experience with iTunes, but I doubt I will ever buy any digital content if I cannot get a simple refund on an item I never used.

    After much trial and error I was able to solve the issue.
    Don't know why but the default  "Managed Pipeline Mode" of Application Pool setting did not work. Instead of "integrated" it had to be set to "classic" for it to work. Don't ask me why! Anyways I figured I share this in case it helps out someone in future.
    Priyank, thanks for your suggestion too.

  • I bought the HD season version of breaking bad, however I only need the regular @ 19.95. How can I change this and get the difference refunded?

    When you purchase an HD video on a supported device or computer, only HD video will be downloaded. To download the SD version, you need to download the video again from your Purchased page. Conversely, if you purchase an HD video on an unsupported device, the SD version will be downloaded. Then, you will need to download the HD version from your Purchased page.

  • Breaking Bad, The Final Episodes

    If you're like me, you were hooked on Breaking Bad from the very first episode. I've enjoyed every minute of Breaking Bad and while I'm sad to see it end, I'm excited to see where they take these final episodes. To prepare for the first of the final eight episodes of Breaking Bad to air tonight, I spent my weekend re-watching the final episode of season 4 followed by the first eight episodes of season 5. Now, I sit and wait.
    Make sure to pick up any seasons you still need on Blu-ray or DVD!

  • When will the "How I Met Your Mother" final season 9 be released on iTunes?

    When will the "How I Met Your Mother" final season 9 be released on iTunes? I really don't want to miss it! I know it starts on the 23rd of September in America but I would like to see it at the same time in England! Therefore O want to download it onto my iPad! but when is it getting released on iTunes so I can doneload it! Thank you

    It will be available whenever the studio provides it to itunes.

  • When will final episode of Breaking Bad be available from UK store?

    Anybody know when the latest Breaking Bad will be released on Uk store? Already out on Netflix!

    I believe the average standard is within 24 hours of it airing. But there are other users complaining about this episode. iTunes can't upload it until the studio gets them the file.
    I'd give it a few hours for people to get in the office, etc.
    Usually once a procedure is in place things go efficiently.

  • When can I watch Breaking Bad episode 2, "Buried"?

    I purchased the season pass, last week it took three days to download and watch the episode (um, what happened to streaming??) Seriously frustrated and thinking of moving to Amazon streaming.

    Here's what's happened for me: Episodes for Breaking Bad simply don't appear on my Apple TV as they should. That's happeneded two weeks in a row. This week, it got worse, because the download link for the episode pointed to the making-of teaser, not the real episode.
    The episode is finally downloading to my computer, but neither of the first two Final Season episodes shows on my Apple TV. ***?
    Something similar happened to me when I bought the 2nd season of Homeland. The common factor is that I bought both seasons before the episodes started to air.
    The larger issue, however, is the terrible support. Apple seems to have this set up to make it as difficult as possible to get someone ON THE PHONE. Here's a little FYI, when I want to watch TV, especially the latest episode of the hottest show on, I simply expect it to WORK. Right now. Automatically. And, oh  yah, I paid for the whole **** season in advance!
    There's just no excuse for this. Apple has, in my experience, excellent support for their hardware products. However, the "support" they provide for their $7B media store is just really bad.

  • Breaking Bad Episode 5 not appearing on Apple TV

    I have purchased the season pass to the final season of Breaking Bad and the first four episodes downloaded automatically to my Apple TV. However Episode 5 does not appear on my Apple TV. When I check on my laptop it is available but I want to watch it through my Apple TV. I tried restarting Apple TV and even a complete reboot. I'm getting frustrated! Can anyone help?

    figured it out imovie theatre has to be uploaded to icloud to work for some strange reason. Unlike iphoto or regular imovie which are just sent to itunes.

  • I bought breaking bad on the US store, can't download it

    So I went to buy breaking bad season 1 on itunes, it linked me to the US store where I purchased it (I had money on my account from a voucher), but because I live in Ireland it wont let me download it, but I was still charged for it. Is there any way to download it or get my money back?

    You cannot legally use another countrys itunes store.
    You have violated the terns of use of the itunes store, shich could lead to the loss of your account.
    You can try contacting itunes support and explaining your situation.  Maybe you will get lucky and get a refund.
