"Breaking Bad" on AMC

[Brian 162]

I think the fellas are in a pickle. Hank finally caught a break.
I'm going to miss Mike. I liked the way he dealt with Walt.

"Walt...Shut up and let me die in peace."

Oops correction:

“Shut the fuch up, and let me die in peace.”

[Brando]

I don't think we'll see the end of Mike - too much involvement. Also glad Hank caught a break. As for Jesse, he's too far in to just walk away.

I thought bringing in Todd to take Jesse's place as a cook was pretty interesting. He seems to be catching on.

I keep thinking of the preview of Mr. White in fugitive-mode in that first episode...will be interesting to see how things play out next week.

Two more episodes, right?

I think next Sunday is the last episode for this year.
Next year is the final eight episodes.

I'm don't usually get into things like this, but am enjoying Breaking Bad. It is fairly well done and the writing is top notch.

A very good review of "Breaking Bad" in the current New Yorker.

Best line: descibing Lydia as a "helicopter mom missing a blade"...

“Breaking Bad” Review : The New Yorker

[McLovin]

I've liked Breaking Bad. Watched it from Season 1 on Netflix, and am watching it currently.

It's been a very good show and a great concept. But, I think it's being run a bit past its natural end, and a lot of stuff is being recycled just to squeeze another season out of a hit.

For example, I just don't know how many more "tough guy" meetings in the middle of the desert I can take. And Jesse trying to get out of the biz and walt trying to keep him in, Jesse trying to get paid. Last week's episode, while good, had a bit of a Groundhog Day feel to me.

Next season, being the last, has the potential to be really great.

Mc Lovin...seriously, the way Walt played that whole thing, come on, it wasn't just another tough guy meeting... sometimes xbox connect, or Microsoft go to meeting doesn't have the same effect, and the cost of a plane to jersey just to have a sit down, well those expenses add up and with the DEA tracking people, perhaps the desert is best suited for the occasion.

Season finale in progress........

[red-beard]

No deatils please. I can't watch for a couple of hours...

[Baz]

Is it OK to discuss now?

I'll start us off....

That Lydia is pretty hot...wow.

[red-beard]

I've watched it now.

"I'm Out".

What does one TRILLION dollars look like? (calculations & dimensions)

The stack looked bigger than a standard pallet (40 inches by 48 inches). It looked more like 6 feet by 6 feet and about 2.5 feet high.

Based on the calculations on the website, I'd say they have a maximum of $200M. Probably less, since they have a mix of bills. With the mix, lets say they have 1/2, or about $100M

[Nostril Cheese]

Took Hank long enough to figure it out. It's not like he had miles of circumstantial evidence or anything...

[Baz]

Here is the inscription/dedication Hank saw:

“To my other favorite W.W. It’s an honour working with you. Fondly G.B"

That book, Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass", was a gift from Gretchen (maiden name) Black. A gift to Walt when they worked at Gray Matter. Walter WHITE + Gretchen BLACK = GRAY Matter. They used to be romantically involved.

What the DEA has is Gale's lab journal with the inscription/dedication: "To W.W. My Star, My Perfect Silence."

A heck of an ending...now it will be 10 long months before we continue and see what Hank does with this new revelation. A lot of possibilities as well as considerations.

Makes you wonder about that preview of Walt on the run - a fugitive in the first episode this season

The 2 best parts of last night's season finale were the prison hits with that cool background music and the meth segment with "Crystal Blue Persuasion" playing.

Superb editing!!!
