im guessing mike shows jesse how to kill people and not care about it - jesse problem solved, walt still cooking meth for gus.
"AMC announced today that Breaking Bad, the Emmy Award-winning and critically lauded drama series from acclaimed writer-producer-director Vince Gilligan has been renewed for a 16 episode order that will conclude the series. Production on all episodes of the final order will commence in early 2012. The roll-out of the episodes and premiere date schedule has yet to be determined by the network. The announcement was made by Charlie Collier, president of AMC."
Sweet that ought to draw out the nothing fucking happening for a few more weeks. :rolleyes2 :cussing::cussing:
Walt is an egotistical douche and will be replaced by Jesse as the chef.
as much as nothing seems to be happening except buildup i am enjoying the show just as much for the aesthetics. the camera work is incredible. i wish all shows (and movies) could be as interesting.
Alright, now we're making some progress... took Hank long enough.
awesome episode.
Yeah, awesome. The whole series is extraordinarily well written. Walt is self destructing because his brainchild was stolen from him by his friend, who used it to become fabulously wealthy, while brilliant Walt was relegated to obscurity. So all of his bad behavior is driven by him wanting to get the fortune he lost, and wanting no one else to get the credit for the fruit of his genius.
TGR,the best TV guide. I didnt know season 4 was going to start during the summer. Time to visit pirate take-out
did he poop all by himself? ;)Quote:

I'm sure it's a ways off, but I can't wait for Hank to figure out Walt's involvement. THAT will be classic!Quote:

I am really looking forward to Walt getting everything that he deserves. I also hope that skylar goes down hard. I seriously hate her character.
The only character I really care about is Jesse. I hope that somehow he comes out of this o.k.
One of the things I find intriguing about this show is that I can't remember another, where the main character is someone to be disgusted by. I don't see how you could have any sympathy or empathy for the man. He is truly an immoral scumbag full of personal defects.
You are one interesting contradiction, DBS.Quote:

I just feel that if it wasn't for Walt's manipulative involvement in his life, and for his use of meth that he would be a good person.
Walt on the other hand, doesn't use drugs, and has nobody manipulating him. He is just a piece of shit through and through.
I had this same thought. Dug the way Hank dropped the hammer on them after they looked at him like he was full of shit.Quote:

I think they should come up with a new charactor:El Jer.
El Jer would be some sociopathic loner who rolls into town, cuts everybody's head off and replaces the whole blue meth cartel with a Taliban opium cartel.
Oddly enough, Sasquatch-looking snowboarders would be totally turned off by El Jer.
Seriously tho - I like everybody. I'd hate to see anybody get whacked. Except maybe Walt's son.
Jesse would have been busted by the DEA if he hadn't got involved with Walt, after all he was using heavily, cooking, and his product was known by the DEA to be associated with his knickname, which he had on his license plate.
Walt's influence has wizened him, and has caused him to lose the romantic view he had of his life as a meth cook. My guess is that Walt will find the bottom of his fall into darkness, but Jesse will somehow get out of the business.
a seriously unimportant part. walts wife is just as uninspiring, and i think i would like to see her go first? but at least at the same timeQuote:

They continue to flesh out characters, and the plot. I don't get the "nothing has been happening" comments, I think every episode is intellectually gripping, and they use the graphic violence as punctuation rather than every letter in the script. It's masterful really.
Ep 8 was fantastic.Why Breaking Bad hasn´t been bought by one of the major networks in Norway is beyond me.
A lot of people equate intense action with "happening". Many of the more "boring" episodes turn out to have a whole lot going on in retrospect.Quote:

Arild - I would pay to watch BB dubbed in Norsk. That'd be as good as German-speaking Conquistadors floating aimlessly down the Amazon.
I just shot coffee out of my nose! I´d pay for that, too. Funny thing is, I could picture the actors responsible for the voice overs right away. Sad to say, no shows except those for children are dubbed over here.Quote:

I have more of these in stock.
great episode. cool to see manny from scarface after all these years.

Wow.
I agree, Breaking Bad is a great show! It ranks right up there with The Wire for a good TV series.Quote:

Last episode was a great one. During Gus and his partners "interview" with the Mexican gangsta you could feel the sense of menace and fear. I was totally absorbed. The writing is great but so is the acting.
yeah, and of course tio (wheelchair guy) was one of sosa's hitmen in scarface. he planted the bomb in the congressman's car and tony blew his brains out. i always thought gilligan was paying homage to scarface by casting him.Quote:

wheelchair guy = hector = tio (uncle) <> frank in scarface

s.04 ep.08 = badass
hank having walt plant the gps was great....you could feel walt squirming. scene by the pool played out how i figured it would and is an important leason to mafiosas in the making....kill them all and don't deal with them in the future.
What I don't get is WTF were Gus's prints doing at Gail's place?
maybe Gus was over there blowing him?
