letting Meth Damon and his crew know where he buried the money, they were always going to kill Hank. Might as well have let them and at least keep the money hidden.


Disagree, his mistake was in season 3 and then again in 5
saving Jesse by running over the dealers. That was pure murder, unlike crazy 8 which was sort of self defence. He would have stayed cool with Gus and made loads of money. His next mistake was restarting his business after Gus died. He had enough money to walk away from it all and seeing out his days in comfort. His madness and greed just spiralled from there!

Regarding Walt and my impressions of him.

When he tried to frame Hank in the video, that was my turning point. He'd done a lot of shitty things, but that was the final nail in the coffin for me. The final episode redeems him a little, and his confession that he enjoyed doing the whole meth business thing to Skylar was a great scene. Saving Jesse was also very admirable.


You can hate him but you have to admit, he's a phenomenal character.

Just finished the first season and I am totally hooked!

Finally a TV series that's lived up to the hype.

Easily one of the best TV.

I miss Breaking Bad. Wish I can wipe my memory and watch it all again.

Hard to believe it's been just over a year since the final episode was out.

I remember being unable to focus on work all day. Just wanted to go home and watch it. Avoided Facebook, Grcade, Reddit in case some asshole spoilered it.

On the plus side it's been a year without Earl Gray and his spoilering of the last few episodes (thankfully I missed them).

Just watched 'over' and thought it was unusually slow, and then when Walt is in the diy shop I remembered what was coming.

Stay. Out. Of MY territory.

Goosebumps :nod:

It's like, "wait, why the strawberry float am I worrying about fixing rot under my house when I'm a floating drug king?!"

Gus has made his first appearance and Walt has broken in to Jesse's place to get the meth, didn't realise it finished on a cliff hanger and that bit was in another episode. The crash is coming up soon, the only gooseberry fool bit in the show IMO and dangerously close to shark jumping.

Shark jumping?

Wrong.

Just watched the S2 finale.

Walt is such an unbelievable banana split when Rewatching, my mrs didn't twig the first time around that he'd let Jane die so she was fuming :lol:

The plane crash, strawberry floating hell it's worse than I remember. low point of the show and I'm including fly in that.

The article circulating about a season 6 renewal is bullshit right?

Anyone seen Jesse-sorry Aaron Paul's tweets about the Toys 'R' Us controversy? Basically some 'mum' complained about them selling Breaking Bad toys (I had no idea they even made them) in America (and possibly beyond), so Toys 'R' Us pulled the product. He's arguing against it and started a petition, on the basis that they sell violent games, knives and even guns (I think!).

strawberry floating bizarre!

Aaron asked in a tweet which was the more damaging: Breaking Bad toys or Barbie dolls?

:lol:

Just finished this. What an amazing show, the last few episodes were so good. Walt is one of the best characters from TV I can think of and just watching his descent into evil was amazing.
Unfortunately Wedgie spoiled the end for me, but it was still great.
