Season 4 opener tonight.  8)

This show is pure genius.  [evil]

Indeed.

I've been a follower from the start, great stuff.

Hell of a season opener.  :o

Good season opener.  I am looking forward to Skylar becoming a little less of the whiny person she has been, and a little more of the character she was in this episode. (I mean, I get why she was.  Surprise! I cook meth! is liable to result in some gnashing of teeth.  That being said, I kinda hope they kill off Walt Jr)

Here's a good interview with Heisenberg Bryan Cranston - no spoilers, but there are some hints as to what will come this season.
http://www.avclub.com/articles/bryan-cranston,58817/ (http://www.avclub.com/articles/bryan-cranston,58817/)

I think Jesse will get the bright idea of selingl meth over the internet (ebay)and Hank finds it while shopping for crystals online then he'll be back in the cop game.

"Go home Walter"

Hanks wife is a make the beast with two backsing psycho.

She's a hell of a negotiator.  :)

I work on this show, finishing up episode 7 of season 4 tomorrow night  [popcorn]

yes, this show is fleepin awesome.

and the conversations are always better than book club.

That has to be extremely cool....

does that mean your in Albuquerque for while?  [beer]

It is a lot of fun. [thumbsup]   I'm at the end of the audio workflow so I'm just tucked away here in Burbank, no travel for me unfortunately.

I'm thinking Gus is sending Jesse to Rehab.  [popcorn]

The very blunt, eye-opening kind.

I'm going with Gus ordered Mike to give Jesse over to the cartel to smooth things over and thats where they were headed.

I think Gus might try to turn Jesse.  They have spent a lot of time this season establishing that Jesse just doesn't give a shit anymore - if that includes not giving a shit about killing Walt or working him out of the picture, that would work in Gus' favor.

It was nice to see Hank something other than sullen and pregnant dogy.  And that Gale video was... horrifying.

I think Mike is taking Jesse here:
http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/sdo/2370048082.html (http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/sdo/2370048082.html)

and Walt is really mad because they didn't ask him  to go along.

 ;D

"protective/splash resistant eye wear"

 [laugh]

I think Walt had alittle too much wine and opened a can of worms.

Yeah he is a pretty poor drunk.

Although that stupid move might have thrown Hank off thinking it was Walt (Which I think he wonders in the back of his head).

This series is simply amazing

It was really good this week.

Quite possibly the best thing on TV these days.

Unless you count the time I put my wang on one. “That’s quite a dick you have there,” everyone agreed, as I stood with my hands on my hips, beaming and nodding proudly.

Another great episode

Glad to see it's still dipping it's toe into dark comedy from time to time (Jessie and the tweakers)

BTW: I think Hank's got cancer again.

Dammit, I missed it this week.  >:(

Somebody wanna give me the Cliffs Notes recap?

"Get the make the beast with two backs out of here and never come back"

I was close.

Walt kind just f'ed himself with Jesse.

The return of Ted and the cooked books added a nice bit of intensity to the pot....

Yeah Skyler is going to have herself a nice little collection of businesses down the road.

I see next season will be the last.  :(

I'm going to predict Skyer gives all those $50s to Ted to help him uncook his books. Then Ted steals all the money.

The one predictable thing about this show is: "one step forward, two steps back"  [evil]

Gus, you ruthless make the beast with two backser.  [clap]

+1000

Total badass.  [bow_down]

Nah, just payback is a pregnant dog.

Amazing  [clap]

Getting in on this thread because I heart this show so much.

Good call.

That means they'll have to sell the car wash back to Walt's old boss for half the price they paid so they can all get out of town.

Then he ends up teachering chemistry in a Mexican high school.

This show does not disappoint.

Nope.

The finale should be interesting....

...and then the long wait for the final season.

you mean the long wait for the final season that is being broken up into 2 mini seasons...I am not amused.

You guys are going to love the finale  [popcorn]

 8)

I'm hard.

This is truly the best television drama ever.  [clap]

Only 16 more episodes left now, unsure of whether it will be 16 at once or two 8 episode seasons but that's it.

Kick ass finale.  [thumbsup]

Sucks we have to wait for the last season to resume (although they wrapped things up pretty tidily last night).

Oh well, next week: zombies!

Dingdingdingding...

That might have been the single most badass moment of TV I have ever witnessed.  This season, while superlative,  was a bit more of a struggle for me than seasons past.  I wanted more Heisenberg kicking ass, and less Walt crying in a hole in his floor.  That was just the most satisfying resolution I could have imagined.  It's sad for me to think that Tio did not have enough screen time to warrant being nominated for an award of some kind - what he did with a bell, and a twitching face is far more than what lots of actors could accomplish with use of their entire body and a set...

OK, I am going to go watch the scene again for the 20th time.

^^^Also when he set up the meeting with the DEA, just to tell them to suck his dick.  [clap]

That was excellent.

So what is next season going to be?

I see next season as Walt keeps cooking because he has cancer again and this makes him a a lot of money and makes him feel alive. Jesse wants out to just try and live a normal life with the chic and the kid, but Walt pulls him in. Hank will still be on the hunt once they pop back up on radar. Walt goes into full on Hessenburg mode and kills Hank. Then Jesse kills Walt (and calls him pregnant dog just before he does it) after finding out Walt poisoned the kid and basically turned his life into shit.

Side stories Marie steals the car wash from Skyler. Walt Jr. eats more pancakes and whines about stuff.

in some ways, i really wish that they'd just leave it be after this season.

16 episodes isn't really enough time to "get deep" and establish/resolve some long story arcs without feeling "rushed".

that said, i'm guessing that jesse finds out that walt was directly responsible for brock's hospital stay and that walt was also in the room when jane overdosed (and chose not to save her).

it's going to be jesse vs walt. skyler is going to learn more than she can handle about walt's actions. walt jr might, too. hank is going to put all the pieces together.

i'm expecting the final season to be very, very dark... don't expect to like walt (at all) at the end.

I can't wait to see what's next. It really is a great show leaving you always wanting more. I can do without Walt Jr. As he serves no purpose and Marie annoys the shit out of me.

I'd agree with Derby's forecast: dark, with a good chance of more dark.  I have read a lot of prognostications that involve Jesse killing Walt - I hope that doesn't happen, not only because I found it a little hard to believe Jesse could manhandle Walt a little earlier in the season, but also because I don't necessarily buy that Walt "ruined" Jesse's life.  Didn't bring sunshine to it either, but I don't see Jesse as the moral paragon of the show.

It seems unlikely that Walt and Jesse will start cooking again, at least immediately - no place to do it, and no cartels to pay them for it.  I do kind of like the idea of them getting back to the RV in the middle of the desert again if they run out of money.  It would be a nice bookend.

Plus, there will be the fallout from the Gus Fring, Ted, and Hank storylines to develop and clean up.  The Ted situation in particular makes me nervous as a fan - I fear the show turning into CSI Albuquerque.

I would not be surprised if Walt Jr gets a bigger role, as he is the last untapped dramatic resource in the show.  But, and at the risk of sounding like an asshole, I am not sure how much dramatic range we could expect from him.

Anyways, I look forward to the last season(s) - with a defined end in sight, I reckon we have a lot more face-melting explosions in our future, metaphorically speaking...

Hence my comment above regarding the season finale wrapping things up nicely, really.

I would like to have Walt catch Walt Jr's doing meth somewhere in the season too, just to throw Walt for a loop.

Well being an insider I have it on good authority that they're going to be taking the show in a whole new direction.  For the better?  you be the judge.

Breaking Bad is now on ABC Part 3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09xwj7L7-Z0&feature=related#)

I say Walt takes over where Gus left off.

Ok at first I thought WTF, Breaking Bad on ABC its wrecked, then I watched those clips and its pretty funny. Exspecially the one about Gus washing Tio balls when he rings the bell.  [laugh]

 [thumbsup]

AWESOME!!!!   [popcorn] [popcorn] [popcorn]

Finalized ep 1 this evening, the season opener is awesome!    8)

 [popcorn]

Can't wait.....

Oh hell yes, way to start the final season.

I think it's gonna be a good one.....  [thumbsup]

That episode was awesome.  I was mentally preparing myself to pretend that the series ended with Gus' face melting, but my fears that this season would suck after the last one ended so strong were allayed in the first few minutes.  It looks like we will have another floating teddy bear device in this series, but so far it is interesting.  Nice to see Walt out of his Heisenberg costume.

Fun livinng in Alb. Knowing a lot of the landmark places the show is shot in location on, and periodically running across a place you didn't know but recognizing it now. I bicycle past the place where Walt shot the drug dealers everyday. I've had our truck detailed at the carwash Walt worked at. Just fun. :)

My favorite line from ep.1 was, "I can see a lot of outcomes to this thing, and not one of them involves Miller Time."  Great writing.

 [thumbsup]

?

The hat. The sunglasses.

Why didn't the magnet controller get sucked out of Walt's hand and get sucked into the magnet?

I think Hank is going to figure out that if there is a crane magnet in the back of the truck there has to be a crane with no magnet somewhere. Where would you use one besides a junk yard?

The crane magnet bit was a little over the top but I have to look past it....

Any bets on which primary/secondary characters die (if any) in this final season?

I hope not Saul.  Love that guy.

Every season has some comic relief, this was one of those moment.


I could tell you the outcome, but where's the fun in that  :-X

Oh hell yes  [popcorn]

Another great episode.  [thumbsup]

So who was the chick that tried to hire Mike to kill off everyone? Didn't quite catch that part.

The accountant for Gus

she works for madrigal. she's sitting next to the guy that says "alleged actions" in the meeting with the dea.

In the interest of me not going back and re-watching the second half of last season, can someone recap the ricin cigarette?

I thought Walt poisoned the kid with it, yet it's back?

Walt stole the cigarette from Jessie to make it seem like Gus used it to poison the kid. Walt actually used the flower (lily of the valley?) to poison the kid. You see him getting rid of it in the first episode.

Ah, got it.  Thanks!

The whole 'hide the meth cook operation under the guise of pest control' was pure genius.  [clap]

Love the show and dig the ideas they come up with but...they lost me when they vented the gases outside. Termite tenting doesn't vent anything. There is no smell. They would get caught the first time they tried that.

I'm already over the extermination facade---it's looking like this season is all about Walt becoming a megalomaniac.  Sit back and enjoy.[popcorn]

Pride comes before the fall, perhaps.

Either way, doesn't look like Walt's going out like Tony Soprano....

Ah, but was it termites? They showed some big-ass bugs on the meth tent in the house.....

But yeah, pumping those fumes directly outside would cause some raised eyebrows.

I think Todd is an undercover cop.

Which one is Todd?  The kid from Friday Night Lights?

The guy that found the nanny monitor in the living room of the house. I'll go with the angle of he is undercover to catch the exterminating company and the breaking and entering ring they support.

Yeah it a way out there idea I know, but its part of the fun right?

 [thumbsup] Convincing speculation.  I like how you think.

Plausible.

That and didn't they all have cool nicknames? Mike's telling their names and then says "That's Todd". It's like Star Trek, here are the crew and here is the guy in the red shirt.

Other far out thoughts. Walt Jr. becomes a meth dealer not knowing him dad is the manucturer of it. I base this on how cool he thought it was that Gus offered him a job and how much he was into watching Scarface.

Excellent episode tonight.

I have to agree. The selling of the Aztec was really good, very symbolic. Walt is gone his is full on Heisenberg.

How long before Skyler pulls a Walt and goes walking naked through the grocery store to fake being nuts?

Since it was Walt's birthday here is some  [bacon]

With Walt stating 'Nothing stops this train.  Nothing.', I just wonder how far he will push the train as his family falls apart.  We're already seeing Skyler flake (how much of that was an act?), how long until Walt Jr has wrapped the 392 Hemi Challenger around a tree as a further cry for help from his parents?

I do find it interesting that Hank has been promoted which leaves the whole Fring/Heisenberg case in the hands of someone else.  Will that person be as diligent about persuing the blue-meth perps?  Who will it be?

Loved Skyler's line about how she's waiting....for the cancer to come back. Classic.

Vince Gilligan loves the imagery of pools.....good episode.

Didn't really like all the Chrysler product placement. I'd also be surprised if they wrecked one of the cars. Other than that the first few episodes have been great. Can't wait for next week.

+1.  Especially with a Chrysler 300 ad at every break (didn't count, could be an exaggeration).

Skyler's character has always irked me...now more than ever.

Disagree.  TV always had ads, now they're just inside the program.  No biggy.  Plus, the scene was cool since it showed Walt's further transformation into someone acting independent and reckless.



This times 11tyb.

Oh goddamn.  [clap] whomever said homeboy was a cop, me thinks you're wrong.

Just as I was thinking "this episode was kind of boring"... holy shit.

Just wrapped up the half season finale at work, it's so frustrating not being able to talk about it!  :-X

Episode 7 is ridiculous  [bacon] [bacon] [bacon]

Skyler foreshadowed it.....when she noticed Walter's arm and said he was burying bodies. I really wish it was Walt Jr. who got shot in the face.......He is the worst.

Those were my exact thoughts when he dropped the kid on the dirtbike.

He is just deep under cover  [roll]

Ana Tijoux - 1977 
Breaking Bad - Original Soundtrack " Ana Tijoux - 1977 " Season 4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58V1qD8F9m4#)

Uh, Todd's a DICK!

Incredible episode.  [clap]

Why didn't he just cut the zip tie where it wrapped around the furnace?

I was thinking that same thing.

and Todd is a dick, but the perfect guy for Walt to have in his empire.

After Todd shot that kid, I came to the conclusion that nothing good is ever going to happen for Walt again.

Heisenberg's destiny is tragedy: the ultimate fate of all those who build empires.

I think there was some foreshadowing last week when Hank was playing with Holly and said "I'm never going to give you back."

Todd's a dick.

Jesse & Mike are right in trying to get out while anything is still salvagable (& $5M ain't bad either).

Walt...  Well, the foreshadowing has been going on this entire season.  He's gonna die, & die bad.  Just a question now of how many others he takes with him.

One so far...

"Say my name"

yeah... i thought it was kind of amusing when walter was talking about icarus to jesse earlier in the season.

pot? kettle?

I think Walters kettle is blue.  ;)

I think if Jesse finds out that Mike is dead he is going to wise up fast, after Mike's warning.I think it would be cool if Jesse goes to Hank and says "You want Hessenberg I'll give you Hessenberg."

Walt's such a dick...

That I've started calling people 'Walts' instead of dicks.

With Mike dead, Jesse's interactions w/Walt will certainly take a turn.  Just waiting to see what turn that'll be.

I'm thinking Walt will end up either killing or alienating everyone in his life b/c of his pride and lust for power.

He'll end up financially rich and alone realizing just how rich (in life) he *used* to be.

he's gonna end up on his own, with no family by his side, running from hank...

there will be no on-screen redemption for walt. the writers have already gone "too dark" to give him any sort of forgiveness.

Gilligan has done an absoutly make the beast with two backsin amazing job at making the Protagonist into the antagonist. Walt has truely 'broke bad'. There is no redemption, there isn't supposed to be one. Walt isn't supposed to win. From the season opener, the flash forward to his 52nd birthday, we know the cancer is back, he was hiding out in new Hampshire, which probably means he was cut off form his family. He needed to buy a belt fed .50cal which meant a massive violent shoot out was about to happen, Walt is going down as he should.

What a great make the beast with two backsin show!  We all started out feeling really bad for the guy and wanting to see him succeed to now wanting to see him crumble and fall apart due to his ego and greed.

My only complaint is that we have to wait for the 2nd 'half' of the final season. I hate AMC and their 'split' seasons.

I typed this from my phone, so excuse my grammar and spelling errors

This.

I forget what the make the beast with two backs was going on. Damn adult ADHD.....

(or is it old age)

 [laugh]  I hope Walt kills everyone...EVERYONE  ;)

Its funny that Walt was shocked when Tocco(sp?) beat that guy to death in the junkyard. He was shocked when Gus slit that guys throat. Now here he is killing Mike like its just business.

I was thinking it would be interesting if Jesse mails letter to Hank saying Walt is who he is looking for. While its in the mail Walt kills Jesse and things all the lose ends are tied up. Then surprise Hank is at the front door.

And vice versa with Jesse's character.  Hard to believe he originally wasn't going to make it past season 1. 

I'd say Walt's going out in a blaze of glory, but that's a little too Scarface-esque.

Maybe the .50 cal is for Walt Jr.'s birthday. How else do you top getting a kid a new Challenger? Walt is setting the bar really high for the following year with that move.  ;D

Plus I doubt you would have to leave NH to get one.

Get him the SRT instead of the RT.

That was alot of money. :o

Read paragraph 3 of this article.  Remind you of the scene 2 episodes ago

http://www.economist.com/node/21559962 (http://www.economist.com/node/21559962)

I doubt that Walt is really out. I bet he just has Todd doing the cooking for him. Which is fine until Todd blows someones house up.

I'm wondering a few things:

If Skyler put all that $ into the storage locker, who's to say she didn't slip a little someplace else?

Since Hank's boss is already on him for spending DEA resources to investigate Fring & the blue meth, will Hank have the leeway to continue the investigation if Walt is truly 'out' (?) and the blue meth isn't on the street?

I'm trying to put the pieces together back to the S5 opener w/the New Hampshire plate 'LIVE FREE OR DIE'.

Damn...that was a LOT of $...

from hank's perspective, it's more than just the blue meth, now... walt is linked to 9-10 prison murders and the execution of gale boetticher. hank may or may not eventually tie him to the bomb that killed fring and hector but, if he follows the trail far enough, walt is also "associated" with him getting shot.

he may be able to sell a continued investigation to his boss on the first two, but this is going to be personal for hank, on multiple levels...

what's the stuff walt hides behind the electrical outlet?

A very deadly poison.  He manufactured it last season, but hasn't used it yet...

To Walt's credit he hasn't killed anybody that probably didn't deserve it. Lots of collateral damage though.

the tarantula kid on the bike certainly didn't deserve to die. definite collateral damage.

did jesse's girlfriend deserve to die? he had a chance to save her and didn't. result: a whole plane full of collateral damage. interesting note, in an early draft, walter actually murders her by injecting her with more heroin while she was passed out.

how about the 9-10 coordinated prison murders? collateral? deserved it?

gale boetticher?

mike may have "deserved it," but walter killed him for his own selfish reasons.

Who all has he actually killed? There was the guy in the basement (drug dealer), Mike (gangster), Gus & Tuco's uncle (drug kingpins), the two drug dealers that killed the kid. Probably others I can't think of. the others were collaterals. Jesse's girlfriend killed herself. The kid on the motorcycle was killed by Todd. Gale was killed by Jesse (on Walter's directive).
I guess you could say he is "technically responsible" for all the people on the plane that went down.

jane choked on her own vomit, but walt was there and made a choice not to save her.

walt was also totally going to off lydia w/ the ricin until she made him an attractive business proposition. that said, he is straight-up directly responsible for the prison murders. to defend those by saying he didn't actually pull the trigger, er, hold the shank, is a cop out.

i think there's a line you can draw between self preservation and just trying to get away with it/selfishness.

gale and gus/hector were self preservation. gus was going to kill walt.

the others? not so much.

jane? sociopathic indifference.

Excellent season end cliff hanger, This series just gets better with each episode,

When is the second part of season five going out?

next summer.

I bet someone steals his pile of money from the storage container and the .50 cal is what he is using to get it back.

It was an M60

Got to see Tommy James and the Shondells do Crystal Blue Persuasion at work tonight.  Back stage after the show he came through where we are set up and I congratulated them for being in Breaking Bad. Such a perfect song for this show and especialy this episode.

I hope he knew what I was talking about because no one else did. I hope he's seeing some decent checks for it too.

I'll bet 90% of the folks that watch the show never heard that song before.  ;)

Just finished re-watching season 3 and 4 on Netflix. Looking forward to new season.

In real life, the likes of W. W. need to disappear.

What a total disappointment [thumbsdown]

Not once was Walt Jr. eating pancakes, hence ruining the Breaking Bad drinking game. [laugh]

What happened to all the zombies?

Awesome show   [clap]

The acting just keeps getting better!  [thumbsup]

I forgot how good this show is.

Saw a brief montage of old clips and one was walt with hair in the RV from season one. About to be killed. Scared. Out of his element.  Victim. Only one step removed from his wimpy Malcolm in the Middle character.  Made me realize how much he's changed.  Wow, what a show.  I may have to re-watch whole series when this is all over.

This.

If anything, just to watch Walt's character develop.

"So long Rocky, keep your left up"   [popcorn]

Walt appears to be a tad smarter than Hank.  :D

Kopf, so now you're effectively live-tweeting the show??

I just want to know how Walt and red-headed kid story lines eventually collide. [popcorn]

 :D no clue.

Walt's "confession" = genius.  [evil]

I'm gonna miss this show.....

 [thumbsup]

Samuel L Jackson will be on "Talking Bad' after Low Winter Sun, talking about Walt's confession.

Jesse snapped.  :-X He may talk after all.

Opening scene....ties in with the flash forward of Walt???

Sklyer: "What's one more?"

OMG...  What a show this is.

Yeah, they are kinda screwed.

Only three more to go....

I'm burnin' 10 grand every minute until you get here pregnant dog!

I stopped reading your diatribe at "pig".

The slur fits Hank perfectly. Doesn't matter who gets hurt as long as it serves his own selfish, crooked ends.

We must be watching different shows.

...the way he collected rocks was ruthless!!!  [evil]

oh cmon, the dudes an @sshole. "you mean the junkie dribbling on my guestroom bathroom floor? so what, Walt kills him...and we get it all on tape". Ya catch that? or the fact that he beats the snot out of 4 different people during the series...or the fact that he's happy to put his brother in a cage...nah, I stand by it, dudes a filthy pig.

brother-in-law... that's duped him for over a year... while running a sizeable meth enterprise right under his nose.

for what it's worth, hank's familial loyalty is to his wife, not his brother-in-law.

The fact that Walt not only passes on opportunities to take out Hank but goes out of his way to save his life says a lot, especially since Hank would never reciprocate. Hank treats Walt like blood family. Walts other actions are besides the point... I could make a case that being an employee of the DEA makes you an enabler and an accessory to murder as well. They're both assholes, but Walt treats Hank with more kindness and compassion than what he gets in return.

Honestly what sucks about the show now is there's no one to pull for...an arrogant macho Fed....a junkie snitch...a murdering drug lord...and a bunch of neo Nazi dickheads.

I don't necessarily agree that hank wouldn't reciprocate, but it doesn't really matter since walt's near his end, anyway.


walt, jr?  ;D

(ok, maybe just holly)

It's a freaking TV show we are discussing and you have to go and put your personal prejudices and political leanings into a thread we have had running for two years? WTF?

No, you're missing the point. You're even highlighting one sentence to intentionally take it out of context. Just chill out, its a TV show like you said...I have prejudices and you have an obvious bias. Its not a big deal...its a great show with great characters portrayed by great actors. That's why its fun to rant about.

Try watching it when you aren't high. It might make more sense.

Lol. I didn't know this was making you angry, sorry :)

Do I need to lock this?

Rudemouthsky...the fact you changed your screen name does not make me forget I've reminded you about your tendency to slam certain groups before...

That's twice...and I'm counting.

If you don't know the story behind that statement...pm me.

Please don't lock!  I love Breaking Bad and we have only 3 more weeks.

OMFG. Walt. I... I have no words...

Holy shit

Wow.....  :o

Holy shit and still to this day I can't stand the son and think he serves no purpose.

I am still pulling for Walt. He has many redeeming qualities and did not intend for any of this shit to happen.

 [popcorn]

 I wonder if Walt winds up moving in with Nate.
Only time will tell. [popcorn]

Hahaha!

Someone other than me thought that when they announced he was going to NH.  [laugh]  [clap]

Walt is going to use the LMG in the trunk to assault jacks gang to get the rest of his money back. He'll give the money to skylar and the son. I bet he is going to use the ricin on his old scientist friend. And he will in some dramatic fashion, kill Jesse.

Just a guess though.

Walt heads back to New Mexico but stops to ask for directions at dimby and sees a bunch of people shooting/ burning a toaster and thinks "My meth is more powerful than I thought."  [laugh]

I say he goes back and kills Jack's gang and gets the money. Frees Jesse who kills Todd. Walt gives the greymatter couple a bunch of money for their rehab places. Gives Brock a bunch of money. Takes the ricin himself so he can die on his terms. Before he dies goes and finds Skyler and the kids. Then gets killed by angry Walt Jr. before the ricin kicks in. Jesse moves to Nebraska and him and Saul open a Long John Silvers together.

   [laugh]  I just hope they don't try to make a sequel about that.

Breaking Cod

I hope that little $hithead "Flynn" gets addicted to meth

One of my co workers was telling me about something he read, that someone else wrote, that anytime Walt Jr. talks it looks like he is trying to fight back a sneeze before he speaks. I'm going to hell because I thought that was funny.

That's pretty make the beast with two backsed up. The guy who plays the character actually has cerebral palsy. While not as bad as "Flynn", he still has a neurological disorder. Not cool.

  I don't like him because he called the cops on his own Dad and thrust a knife through his heart while he was gasping into a bar payphone from Misery, NH. His different-abilities have nothing to do with it.

  The only characters I truly despise at this point are Todd and the Nazi's. I'm actually really disappointed in this show right now...the torturing of Jesse and the murder of Andrea were completely unnecessary and beyond the pale. Todd and the Nazi's are so morbid they've almost ruined it.

You'll find out who is actually the morbid one at the end.

I still wonder if we are watching the same show. His father was in a physical fight with his mother involving a knife. Of course he would call the police. And after having his life destroyed and his uncle murdered why would he want to talk to dear old dad?

^^
perspective?

in fact, as far as junior knows, his dad actually murdered hank himself.

Normal vs abnormal?

Really?

Why is your perspective any better than any one else? Just because it's yours?

Sounds like name calling to me.

It's all good, no offense taken.

Junior still has yet to hear his own Dad's version of events. And Walt was not the aggressor in the knife battle. It should be easy to see how Junior's character can be highly annoying and how Walt has enough humane qualities to be deserving of some sympathy. It would be "abnormal" not to.

I was just busting his balls like he does to me.  :)

Dad's version of events: "Due to my poor estate planning and bad business sense, I began manufacturing illegal, addictive drugs and in the process of concealing this activity I chose to murder several people, order hits on a dozen others, poisoned a child, disposed of a murdered child, ordered a hit which ended up resulting in your uncles murder as well as his partner's, but I did it all so I could leave you money for college.".............Yep, Walt Jr. will be OK with that.

It's just a TV show. Great acting.

Maybe Walt gets killed by the janitor of the school that got framed because of the joint he had on him. Nobody would see that coming.

I like the picture of Walt.

Really??

Here we go.  [popcorn]

I think she should have went with sugar.  :D

 [bow_down] [bow_down] [bow_down] [bow_down]

Wow, what a show.

 [clap]

What a way to finish a series. Most series endings kinda suck (soprano's, the shield, Seinfield) but this was one of the best ever. Awesome.

Now back to Homeland.

Perfect [bow_down]

I'm so happy Lydia died.  I don't know if this makes me a bad person, but going into the final episode I cared more that someone got her than the Nazis.  She never really did anything wrong, either.  But still.  Her attitude...

Even the title of the last episode was intricate and thoughtful:

"Felina"

1) = Fe (iron) + Li (lithium) + Na (sodium) --> Blood, Meth, & Tears (iron is major component in blood, lithium is major component in meth, sodium is major component of tears)

2) = anagram of "Finale"

well, she did hire a hit man to kill mike and his "people," and she also setup declan and his gang to be killed by todd and uncle jack's crew.

I was wondering about this but hadn't seen anything explaining it.

I wish they had made it a two hour show. Fitting that they sent him to the Live Free or Die state.

Poor Huell is still sitting in a safe house somewhere.

Huell Waits (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP_4z4IoYHs#)

I wish...

Jesse and Walt had tearfully apologized to each other...hugged...then found the 80 mil and left in the nick of time.

Then right before the credits roll we see Walt on a beach recovering from his wounds and both of them chillin with 2 Latino hotties. That would have been the best ending ever.

When did "Breaking Bad" become "Breaking Both Ways"?!  :-*

I just finished watching all 5 seasons for the first time over the course of the last 3 weeks.

Amazing show.

And I enjoyed reading along through this thread as I watched the series.



Now we just have to wait a while for Better Call Saul to hit the air.   [evil]






 [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]

I just did the same. Felina was pretty predictable but it was a great ending.

This whole series was amazing.

AMAZING

"Say my name"
"My name is ASAC Schraeder and you can go make the beast with two backs yourself"
"pregnant dog!"
"Magnets pregnant dog!"
"ding ding ding ding kaBOOM!"

So many great lines throughout this entire series. Im sorry there isn't more to watch.

I just started watching this show.

Holy cow!!!!!!

I've only seen the first two seasons.  Amazing.  Well written. I'm contemplating taking time off from work to watch more.

Do it!

I really think this may be the best show ever on television.

Yes. Absolutely.

Seinfield Finale...lame
Soprano's Finale...lame
Lost Finale...lame

Breaking Bad Finale...pure awesome.

Agreed 100%

So many things happened in this series that made my jaw drop and say ho. ly. shit!

I have Breaking Bad Columbia (called Metatasis) next in my Hulu queue.   Trying to practice my spanish.  Apparently, it is an exact remake of USA BB.  Walter White is Walter Blanco.  Saul Goodman is Saul Bueno.  Skyler is Cielo.  I'm not kidding.

From what I understand, it's like watching Breaking Bad all over again for the first time.  [thumbsup]

"They did all the 62 episodes we did, but made them much faster, on a smaller budget," says Bad creator Vince Gilligan, who had "zero" input in the adaptation but experienced a "slightly disorienting feeling of déjà vu" watching the first episode. "It simultaneously inspires me and makes me feel a little sheepish that we took as much money and shooting hours as we did."

Just watched the end of season 4.

This is one of the best television shows I have ever watched.

This is must see TV!

Truth!

What's it about?  [popcorn]

Choices.

[cheeky]  [clap]  [clap]

White barrel...

Or maybe the blue one today ?

this show is STOOPID like most television, they should put it on Bravo after the kardasians or something else equally ridiculous

Yeah, those two shows are pretty much the same.

Well the main characters in both are self-preserving narcissists, so I see the connection.  And I did notice this resemblance:

I've been getting caught up in the Breaking Bad Binge that AMC now has on Sundays.

Makes me want to watch it again from the beginning.

I have a good friend that works in manufacturing.  He specializes in purification and manufacturing.  I'm thinking of buying an RV...........

:D

Just watched the last two episodes last night.

I'm going to need a day or two to put my thoughts together. 

Wow is all I can say for now.

Are you still thinking about buying an RV now?


 ;D

No. It's more work than it seemed at first.

Get your butts to Toy-R-Us quick!  These little gems will only be around so long.

Amazon has them. There are some good ones of 'Gus' but they won't be available till April.

Does Gus also come with bags of fake meth? 

Is half of gus's face removable?

This comes on tonight, yes?

I got the email yesterday.

Saw it last night at the Kimo theater in downtown Albuquerque.  Awesome...

The night before, Aaron Paul was on site. Missed that, but same theater...

That was awesome!

Solid.

So, AMC has been running a marathon the past several Sunday’s. Like most of you, I’ve seen every episode multiple times. But.....It never gets old, so many great scenes. Start posting up some favorite scenes.

That scene was just on. Last scene of season 3. Hell of an ending. Now back when it was being broadcast, we had to wait 9 months to see how that played out. Simply the best writing and acting for that matter, in a television drama.

I started watching You Better Call Saul, already on S3E5 since Friday

Doesn't belong here I know but one of the best SNL sketches of all time and Hartman reminds me so much of Bryan Cranston.

Some joke.

One of my favorite shows ever.

https://youtu.be/btJ2255abjQ

Interesting, but left me somewhat disappointed.

https://youtu.be/pc5qUkB19ks

https://youtu.be/_Bjy4e2gI_8

That just makes me want to see a movie of all deleted scenes.

It is interesting that they kept the Twisters signage, as that is the location of Los Pollos Hermanos.  

Maybe hadn't edited it, as it was a deleted scene?

That would be a load of entertainment indeed.


I miss all the characters.  And typically I don't re-watch or -read books or movies, etc. but look forward to eventually doing this very thing with BCS and BB.

That would have been an interesting plot twist!
