'Game of Thrones' Season 4 Spoilers, Casting News: 'Breaking Bad' Inspires George R.R. Martin to Create More Evil Characters Like 'Monster' Walter White

In a recent blog post on his Livejournal, the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series author George R.R. Martin praised the critically acclaimed television series "Breaking Bad" and hinted at how it has influenced the future of his series. This news directly affects the HBO series based on Martin's books, "Game of Thrones." Martin explained how Walter White (played by Bryan Cranston) is one of the most evil characters on television ... for now.

"Amazing series. Amazing episode last night. Talk about a gut punch," Martin wrote in response to the episode entitled "Ozymandias."

Martin added: "Walter White is a bigger monster than anyone in Westeros. (I need to do something about that)."

Clearly, this statement will cause plenty of excitement for fans of the hit HBO series and the book series it is based on. What kind of evil "monster" will Martin create that can compare to White from "Breaking Bad"?

The author went on to compare his own show to "Breaking Bad," praising the AMC series in the process.

"This is the final season of BREAKING BAD. I think GAME OF THRONES may have a shot at upsetting BB for this year's Emmy (only a shot, though, I think they are the clear favorite), which pits us against their previous season... but there's no way in hell that anyone is going to defeat BREAKING BAD next year, when their last season is the one in contention," Martin wrote.

He also said that the "Red Wedding" episode of "Game of Thrones" could lead to his show receiving the Emmy this year.

"Our profile is likely as high as it is ever going to be. We had a great season. If the Academy is ever going to give their ultimate accolade to a fantasy show (something that is by no means certain), it's going to be this year, I think."
