Breaking Bad

[Buster Bluth]

1,000 bullets. no deaths... only in tv

I know what you mean, but there was a screenshot on Reddit showing that the angle wasn't that great.

Unrelated to the show but Hank (don't know the actor's name) is a big ND fan and was on Sportsnation today.

From the few interviews I've seen, the dude seems like a guy I would not want to have a beer with, I'll say that much.

He's got some Jason Alexander to him, in that he doesn't seem quite as likable in real life as the character he plays on TV.

He is a regular at a breakfast place my parents frequent and they have seen him a bunch of times. They say he is super nice and friendly in person. My folks are huge fans of the show, but they haven't talked to him about that. They just kind of play dumb like they don't know he is a celebrity. Apparently he is an awesome tipper too according to the waitresses.

'Better Call Saul' will be 'Breaking Bad' spinoff

If Hank and Gomez live that goes from a bad episode to their worst episode.

Dean Norris graduated valedictorian from Clay High School in 1981 in good ole South Bend, Indiana.

You thought it was a bad episode? I didn't think it was mind-blowingly good like some other episodes, but I didn't think it was bad. It was a workmanlike episode, and it moved the story along (which was necessary as there are only 3 episodes left).

 

[IrishLion]

I'm beginning to feel concerned that no matter how awesome/shocking/unbelievable/satisfying the last episode actually is, I will still feel let down once it's over. The whole show has been so amazing and unpredictable that I fear my own hopes for how it all ends are reaching an unreasonable level.

Then again, I worried the same thing about season four just before the season finale.

'Better Call Saul' will be 'Breaking Bad' spinoff

This will be very interesting, I'm guessing it will be way less serious than breaking bad.

 

[gkIrish]

just wow...

 

[Buster Bluth]

Whoa.

 

[gkIrish]

I can see why the cast wanted that to be the last episode. I actually would not have minded it although the first half hour was very predictable. Last half hour was tremendous.

 

[GreenSox04]

My head hurts.

Jesse saw the end of the line.

 

[NoJusticeNoPeace]

That was wonderful. I can't wait to see where they are going with the next 2 episodes. Well, I guess we know some details about the finale.

I don't know, there's a lot left to be resolved. Is Walt a monster, or is he the result of a series of unfortunate events? Gilligan has to show us one.

Hank and Gomo die, taking Todd with them. Jesse gets kidnapped to do the cooking. Walt is using the M60 to free him.

I'd love to see it.

I think this was close, but now I'm thinking that Walt finds out that they're cooking his 99% pure blue meth and he wants to take them all out simply due to arrogance/pride. Does he rescue Jesse in the process, after some turn in their relationship? Maybe.

Jesse has really ****ed Walt over a hundred times though. Never trust a drug addict, right Gus?

 

[koonja]

Is it just me, or was it upsetting that if Hank had to die, he died at the hand of Todd's puke-bucket of an Uncle?

 

[Buster Bluth]

That's what makes it all so aggravating. Walt sure as hell didn't kill him.

I don't think it's so much about him being a monster or not. In fact, I don't know if we will ever be absolutely certain about that. I think it would have been a great ending because it would give a lot of meaning to the idea that once you get in the car with that guy who gives you a new identity--that's it. It would show that Walt is once again smarter than Jesse and doesn't let his emotions run his life. Walt's willing to do what is necessary to survive. The scene with his family would leave us with the idea that although Walt will survive, he lost everything that ever meant anything to him. The baby shows that he isn't completely a monster.

Jesse's story would be a bit less complete, but I'm okay with the idea that Jesse sealed his fate when he shot the other cook and simply won't have a happy ending. I think most viewers are clinging to the hope that there is some happy ending but it doesn't need to be that way.

Obviously the episode would have been tweaked a bit and the flashforward would never have happened but the actual last 20 minutes would have been a tremendous ending IMO.

I see what you're saying.

To aid your argument, the scene in which Walt threatens Skyler is apparently one of the nicest thing Walt does? He knows the cops are listening, so publicly falls on his sword so Skyler isn't prosecuted/the Neo-Nazis aren't involved. It's genius. Blew my mind last night when I read about it. So it would have ended with him leaving but in a manner in which he does his best to save his family.

Wow that completely went over my head. I thought he was just being ****** to her.

 

[Buster Bluth]

Yeah a lot of people were saying Reddit that it was obvious, but no one in my apartment realized it.

It explains Skyler's moment of pause and saying she was sorry. If you rewatch it it's actually pretty clear in my opinion. I was just too caught up in "WHAT THE ****!!!" to realize anything haha

I don't think Gilligan has to show us either. I think by his actions, he's both, and Gilligan will let us decide.

I do think he goes back and takes out the NNs. I think ultimately he'll die trying to save Jesse. If Jesse in deed survives is another question.

Can you imagine the new spinoff.... "Cooking with Jesse"

I was confused as hell after that part.... wanted to watch it again, but had to flip to Ray Donovan due to DVR limitation... watching it over tonight!
