Just finished watching tonight's episode...not one I'd suggest as viewing for the little ones...but full of dark humor.

I saw the first few episodes of season 1. It was ok, but i lost interest pretty quickly. Then again i am not at all a big TV person. There are only really 2 shows on TV i watch at all.

2 1/2 men and AI.

Most of my time is spent with women or here with you lot of motley characters.

I have watched it since the first episode. So far, so good.

We usually watch it On Demand to avoid commercials, but there was precious little on last night.

It seemed the ATM scene was shown as part of the "Previously - on Breaking Bad" sequence at the beginning of last night's show. We didn't remember that part, so went back to the On Demand service and queued up the previous week. Nope, not on last weeks episode. So, we watched the remainder of the latest show live.

Looks like Hank may have a full plate now! Rosetta Stone Spanish is probably in his immediate future.

Great show. So far, I like the 1st season better. More original stuff developing. The ATM sequence was in last week's episode.

Just watched the first disc of "Californication." Awesome.

Great original show. I like how they are developing the characters, and they all have real life issues.

I hate Skyler with a passion. I could never be married to her.

Its interesting how Hank is such a complete jackass, and yet I find myself liking him. We all KNEW that Pinkman was going to get with the neighbor chick, but I bet she's going to be serious trouble for him. It can't turn out well.

Just wanted to add that this is one of the best series ever made.

Apparently the writer has 5 seasons in his head. Let's just hope they are able to produce season 3 towards the end of the year.

Can't wait. Love every bit of it.

Oh the finale was fantastic. Glad the Jesse's girl is gone (even though i thought she was hot) b/c she was bad news. Great scene when Jesse is pumping her chest.

Was stunned that Skyler learned all about Walt's lies.

The plane collision explains the black and white scenes that were shown at the beginning of some of the episodes. But we still don't know about the two bodies next to Walt's Aztec. Could it be bodies from the plane?

I think that it is probably the tipping point for Walt. At this point he sees the fruits of his meth dealings and probably realizes that he can never forgive himself - so he will likely keep going and grow even more indifferent to the carnage. I still root for him though which means the story is working. I guess.
