I think this season has been excellent. I've never watched a show where every scene, practically every line, is moving the plot forward with tremendous tension.

And the acting is great. Aaron Paul is tremendous in every scene. So was Mike. And Cranston is playing like 4 different characters.

He's always been stupid when it comes to being a criminal mastermind. He was just able to get his way out of the problems because he was so smart and lucky.

He's just completely lost it now.

And he's almost always had someone to help/bail him out. Jesse, Gus, Saul...but he's getting very close (if he isn't there already) to having to go it alone. The new kid is dumb as a box of rocks. Jesse probably wants to beat Walt's ass. And with the money shit that went down, I'm guessing Saul is going to have to distance himself from Walt since a link between him and Mike can be made through Saul.

Judging from the opening scene in the first episode, it's obvious that the shit is going to hit the fan. It's just a matter of when...

You're a Man on an island with that thought. The train theft episode might just be the single best episode of this entire series. I have loved season 5.

I still love the show..best series on t.v. all time..that or the wire...


The train episode was very good..but not even close to the best episodes in previous seasons like Face Off or Peekaboo or Box
Cutter, or some of the episodes with Tuco ..or the where Gus takes out the Cartel...or when Walt n Jesse are stuck in the RV and Hank is outside..Like I said..I fear this show blew it's load already..hope I am wrong..I am not a fan of some of these new characters, like this new guy who shot the kid and is cooking now or Walt's new partner.

Yea, I'm not a fan of Todd either. I wonder if Jesse is going to start up his own meth lab to compete with Walt? The final episode could be a stand off between them & shooting each other. Which characters get killed next season? Skyler? Hank? Jesse?

I don't think Hank or Skylar are going anywhere..Jessie will come out on top and I believe Skylar and Jessie come to an agreement that Walt is out of control and needs to go..there is a reason why they are slowly introducing Jessie/Skylar more often.Maybe with Skylars help Jessie takes out Walt.

All it would take is for Jesse to find out that Walt poisoned the kid.

I still think that happens somehow.


EDIT: Thanks, Scorehead...

I have never thought about or read about a TV show as much as I have BB. Never has a show kept my interest as much as BB. I will miss the hell out of this show.

Agreed. Crystal Blue Persuasion was awesome.

Walt's massive ego led Hank to find that book. So long Hank.

So Skyler finally gets through to Walt & he decides to get out of the meth business, then Hank sees the book in Walts bathroom addressed to WW. I have no idea which direction this is going to go.

Different book..but very similar quotes by Gale to Walt....Walt told her that about 4 episodes back..think one episode before they hit the train.


I love it when Walt says "IT was the only option" probably heard him say that 20 times in 3 seasons...

Spoilers below
















































It obviously appears he has cancer again which apparently leads to his decision to get out of the business. Although, I still have a hard time believing that in three months he goes from Empire building to being out.

I'm going to watch it again, but really didn't like this mini finale. The scene with Jesse wasn't good either. Was there supposed to be suspense there? Wasn't it obvious there was money in the bags?

Jesse thought Walt was going to kill him.

Right. I got that with the gun. I guess my point was, as the viewer, I didn't think that was even a remote possibility. Maybe my fault in how I'm viewing/interpreting the show, but the drama of that scene eluded me

I read that some thought Mike's body was in the bags. Since, at initial viewing, it could have been a body bag. The camera was set up so we could only see from the bag's point of view.

The Walking Dead spoilers thread was set up because those reading the comics were posting events that had not yet hit TV. Completely different than us talking about an episode that already aired.
