Breaking In

The strange saga of ‘Breaking In’

I had never heard of “Breaking In” until it got cancelled, back in May 2011. At first, I had a mini-heart attack. The thought of my beloved “Breaking Bad” getting cancelled was unbearable. But no, it was some Fox show starring Christian Slater. A quick search on Google revealed that it was a workplace comedy about a high-tech security firm. It’s also on Netflix.

“Breaking In” on Fox

Fox’s newest mid-season replacement, “Breaking In,” is a cross between ‘The Office’ and ‘The A-Team.’ It stars Christian Slater as Oz, the head of Contra Security, a company that tests security systems of important businesses and institutions by breaking into them before criminals or hackers can.
