Default Re: Breaking Bad

I was lucky and watched the show on my own time and stayed the hell away from everyone, so I didn't have anything spoiled. The cinematography and acting is brilliant. The camera work and the imagery....oh my god. The swimming pools are constantly showing up, the scene with Walt in the basement laughing was (imo) a coffin metaphor. Just dark and brilliant, and some of the best acting I've seen on TV. But the show is funny and has levity.

It's hard to watch Breaking Bad and go back and watch poorly acted/written shit like Chuck or The Walking Dead.

I think Mike is going to be a huge concern. Gus had a huge network of supporters, as evident by the doctor scene. He has a huge network, and I assume there is a plan in place if he falls.

The thing is they need cooks. If they don't have a supply...then Gus' empire falls apart. Will be interesting to see what Walt and Jessie do.

I think Jessie is going to...put some stuff together. I immediately thought of Jane's death after the finale, the Season 4 finale echoes Jane's death. The difference is that while Walt could have saved Jane, Jane was pretty much instrumental in her own death. This time Walt was instrumental in killing Gus. But both Gus and Jane needed to go.

They have 16 episodes to tackle:

-What happens with Gus' crime organization

-What does Hank know/what happens with Hank?

-What does Jessie figure out?

-What does Mike do?

-Skyler. She knows that Walt is a badass now. How is she going to react to that?
