Re: Breaking Bad (new show on AMC)

I don't necessarily think the last scene was stupid, I just think it wasn't as intense as we all probably thought it was going to be.

For a season finale, it was a bit of a disappointment, but I'm sure they'll pick it up next season and explain things. I'm excited to see what happens with Walt and his family and what, if any, point was behind the whole plane crash. If it was just a filler and has no connection to anything, it'll suck.

    I think it was just to show that there are more people that Walt's reckless behavior is hurting. It's like a chain of bad karma he is unleashing on the Albequerque area.

    And what was up with that sweater?

    It just seemed very contrived. I thought it was contrived that Walt ran into Jane's father at the bar, then to have this happen I just thought was poorly written for a show that has been so solid. I think enough happened leading up to the crash that I wasn't completely disappointed, just the last scene bothered me.

    I just watched it. Not sure what I think, pretty good, but the plane crash was the first time with this show that I had one of those "really? come on" moments. Might change my mind though, have to think it over.

    Great right up to the end though - "which one?" about the cell phone question was great.
    Aaron Paul is proving himself to be a pretty solid actor in this series too. Never seen Big Love, any good?

    Here's my take on the sweater...

    It's pink, so is the bear we've seen in the pool all season. Perhaps with it falling into the pool and "drowning" it's a symbol for how Walt is "drowning" in all the problems he's created by getting into the meth producing business

    I drew a parallel between the sweater and the bear too. Just not sure what it is. You theory is as good as any.

    Thanks...I thought about it for a good 20 minutes after I watched it and that was all I came up with. I'm giving the article a read now

    Honestly, I think that Walt wearing the pink sweater just means he's deciding to go to bat for the other team.

    He let Jane die so he can get on Jesse?

    It also may be to show his evolution as a person. He was a passive wishy-washy pussy when the show started. Probably wouldn't have had the stones to try and pull off pink. Now he is an assertive bad ass that will wear pink and if you have a problem with it he'll crush your skull with a fuckin' ATM.

    Such a great season, but the finale really sucked to me. I really wanted some more answers, but that is the point of a show to bring you coming back each and every week...but come on, that was lame.

    I fuckin dug it. I agree the whole plane crash thing was kind of wank but it will be interesting to see how it plays out. the people who were cleaning up outside the house were wearing gas masks and outfits. awesome show.

    just finished season 1. big fan now. wish the first season wouldn't have been so short, they could have made a couple more of episodes, IMO.

    Can't wait for season 2 on dvd, and eventually season 3.

    2 has been over for about 2 months. You def need to go check it out. IMO, was better than season 1.

    I'm about half way through season 2 myself. Just started watching last week. Ripped off 4 episodes last night before I went to bed.
    This is a great show.
    All the acting is good, but Bryan Cranston is outstanding. And Aaron Paul as Jessie Pinkman is perfect in his role too.

    I'm excited that I'll be all caught up before the season 3 premiere!

    I just watched the "Better Call Saul" episode and I think it was one of my favorites. Bob Odenkirk is awesome as Saul, and adds a new wrinkle to the show.

    That episode was just fantastic. The infomercial at the beginning of the episode is such signature Bob Odenkirk/Tim and Eric style.
