Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan has revealed new details about the show's final episodes.

The AMC drama's concluding run will be split into two shorter seasons, it was confirmed at a recent panel at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.

"I hope we're going to end this thing in as satisfying a manner as possible and stay as true as we can to the extent of the show from day one," said Gilligan. "We've just got some crazy s**t coming up!"

The showrunner also hinted that the fifth and final seasons will feature more interaction between Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse (Aaron Paul).

"One of the very central relationships of the show is the relationship between teacher and pupil, between Walt and Jesse," he explained.

"I personally missed them having all the interactions they had in previous seasons, when they were kept quite a bit apart by Gustavo Fring (Giancarlo Esposito). So maybe you'll see them a bit more together this season."

Breaking Bad will return to AMC in late 2012.
