Breaking Bad (Season 5.5)

Suddenly got really excited.

For the record, I still don't buy that Walter just got out of the game that easily. Either he's lying, or we're going to require a serious explanatory flashback.

In or out, I don't think it will matter at this point. Hank's got him.

Sure, but only with his knowledge. I don't know if there's a way that Hank can actually file a case against him currently. Something's going to have to bring Walter back in the game for Hank to investigate.

And I'm not too concerned that it will be tough to avoid. The Phoenix crew and the Czechs are going to want MOAR. I kind of think it's going to come at him in all directions.

Rewatched the first few episodes of Season 5 and forgot about the cold open to episode 1 that takes place on Walt's 52nd birthday in some random state outside of New Mexico. He coughs a few times, so it appears like the cancer may be back and he also bought a rather fancy assault rifle as well.

I also hope we find out which dipping sauce Los Hermanos goes with. The "Franch" looked delicious.

Tried it. It's not.

[Ivan Drago]

With this show coming back, tomorrow feels like a demented form of Christmas.

You mean Madrigal? LPH is no more.

There are literally over a dozen bars in Brooklyn throwing viewing parties tonight. So hard to choose from. Might try to go to the one celebrating with an open bar and free fried chicken, but I'm sure it's going to be crowded as fuck because of it.

I was thinking about going to Union Hall, but also I kind of want to watch it alone on the edge of my seat like I usually do. I love that it's a thing though.

I'm going to a friend's place for a viewing party there. I'm STOKED.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

[slqrick]

Exceeded all expectations.

[ledfloyd]

I forgot how agonizing this show can be.

[Qrazy]

So good.

[Lucky]

I could feel my stomach knotting as the garage door closed. That scene was magnetic.

[Derek]

Oh shit, Walt and Hank are already in the Octagon! The next 7 Monday-Saturday's are going to be waaay too long.

[Derek]

Dean Norris may have locked up an Emmy nomination from just the episode alone. That was a damn fine piece of acting.

[Ezee E]

Breaking Bad effectively did in one episode, what takes most tv shows to take an entire season to do. Wow. It didn't miss a beat. I really have no idea what can come next, except that Lillian is going to be the one that creates the most conflict in the show. They'll regret not killing her.

Half Measure.

Everyone went "Oooohhhhhh--" at my viewing party as it came down. That scene was bananas.

[Winston*]

Amazing.*




*referring to Badger's Star Trek script.

[amberlita]

Yeah, loved it. It did what Breaking Bad does best: ratcheting up tension to delivery some of the most entertaining and satisfying scenes on television - all packaged in magnificent acting, keen directorial choices, and beautiful photography.

But it wasn't perfect. They took some shortcuts in the writing and character choices that didn't feel fair given where we left last season.

Walt is perhaps too quickly back in Skylar's good graces and has perhaps too quickly discarded of his Heisenberg persona consider how deeply he had sunk into it last season. I get that the cancer is back and that he's motivated to repair the damage he has done to his family on some level. But the man had absolutely degenerated to a full-fledged scumbag last season. Where did that go so quickly? The speed with which the writers have to push the story makes me think we missed out on a slower evolution we would have gotten with a full Season 5 and Season 6 set of episodes.

And I know it is Jesse's M.O. but I'm a little tired of all the moping. Fantastically layered scene with him and Walt this episode, perfectly acted, but his character is feeling almost one-note in his guilt-addled state.

Great cold open as well. Very revealing and provocative. How the hell are we going to get from here to there in 7 more episodes? Anyone else suspicious that...

Walt's intention is to use the Ricin to commit suicide?

That dedication at the end...

I also find it amusing that you've misspelled "Heisenberg" there, 8.
