    “Well time’s moved on since Season Five and drug dealers no longer use mobile phones to run their empires. I heard they’re going to be monitoring character’s Twitters, Bebo and Facebook accounts and stuff like that. They also want to make the show more interactive and so there’s talk of the public being able to text in plot suggestions and even ideas for music to put on the soundtrack.”
