Breaking Bad Season 5

[Hawkwind]

Am I the only person who watched half of the first season and thought "Meh"?

Yes, it's absolutely awesome TV! Will be a big void in the schedule when it finishes.

Am I the only person who watched half of the first season and thought "Meh"? Just seems so boring to me.

Yes, you are

It's all starting to click into place. Jesse is obviously the one that torches the house and graffitis "HEISENBURG" on the wall. I wonder what the White's do? Maybe they do the witness protection thing and get the fuck out of town? Jesse either has to end up dead, behind bars or in protective custody in the next episode, IMO.

So have started watching this and by god I am hooked! Im on series 2, episode 10 and what an episode. Love the way Walt is all happy with his news that his tumour has shrunk and that hes just cooked over $1m of meth whilst hes wandering round B&Q only to walk outside and threaten that dude to stay away from his territory! No wonder the guy has won the emmy for best actor for the last 4 years or something.

I'd stay away from this thread if you're only on season two if I were you.

 

[Marc]

I read the first post then didnt read anything else

 

[Chilly]

So I just realised that as per the first ep of the second half of s5, the house doesn't get burned down. So I reckon jessie gets interrupted by walt jr or someone else and legs it or ends up in a tussle. Whatever happens after that, Walt Snr needs to watch his fucking back

this show is killing me

This. I keep getting a mini heart attack every time an episode ends

 

[Chilly]

I like the way jessie has just decided he's had enough of cooperating with anyone.

 

[Tom]

Jessie is a bit of a knob though, trying to assuage his guilt by blaming Walter for everything he's done. Despite what Walt's done over the series, Jessie has fucked up time and again and has nobody to blame but himself.

I have a feeling that Breaking Bad will have a better, more thought-provoking finale than The Shield - and that's saying a lot.

 

[Chilly]

Jessie is only pissed off about one thing, though, really - Brock and the ricin.

 

[MYstIC G]

It seems to me that there is a lot of misdirection going on.

Spoiler

Am I the only one who thinks it's Marie that defaces the white residence? Same locks, same keys, subtle mention that she wouldn't hurt "anyone" but not anything. I think she'll end up in jail costing hank his job, Skyler will then blame Walt for her sisters imprisonment splitting up the family

 

[MYstIC G]

I also think that

Spoiler

Walt is getting the Ricin to try prove to Jesse that he didn't poison Brock

that would prove nothing... Walt had the ricin stolen to convince Jessie that he was responsible for accidentally poisoning Brock. The doctor told Jessie that it was just Lily of the valley.

 

[MYstIC G]

But Jesse now operates on the basis that as Walt took it back, he did the deed.

No, Jessie knows that Walt set him up to make it look like ricin. Jessie knows it wasn't. You need to go back and watch those episodes.

In case you don't go back:

[Ch3tan]

I don't understand how do many people cannot follow that (according to the blog author). It's not complex, is perfectly simple if you watch the episodes in order.

 

[Chilly]

yes, but walt had a lilly of the vally plant in his garden. we were led to believe that he DID poison brock with it. there was actually no solid evidence either way, although whether walt would poison a kid at that stage is certainly not a given.

I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER WEEK.

Spoiler

Hank's gotta be a goner. Because he made *that* phone call and said it was going to be a while before he was home, he was so full of himself. He's deaddddd.

Also, lol at a bunch of white supremacist types sitting around discussing the importance of purity.

* SPOILER *

Spoiler

Thats why I think it's Marie that does the Whites house. If Hank & Gomez die it'll be Jesse and Marie who know the Truth (outside of the Whites). I don't see Jesse doing the house as he must be around for Walt and the Ricin

 

[caLLous]

It's going to be an awesome Blu-ray special edition boxset when it's released...

Great episode. The ending was a bit silly though. How the hell could they all miss like that.

Automatic weapons in fully automatic mode aren't known for their accuracy

 

[caLLous]

Spoiler

And to be fair Hank and Gomie got behind that SUV pdq, and there wasn't a massive gap to aim at beforehand anyway... Would like to think the way the guy took aim before he fired the first shot, he would've hit something but it's plausible. I think.

 

[Overdriven]

Wow. Last 2 episodes will be mad. /agree with Last 3 spoilers.

 

[Aoami]

Not seen seen the new one yet, will have time tonight fingers crossed. . isn't there 4 left though?
