it's the line that defines how great that show was. one of many but certainly that one.

I know I’m on an island with my BCS thoughts mostly but Gilligan making another show afterward that’s completely different and just as good actually reinforced how good BB was to me. If that makes sense

No argument. It's great.

if anything it reinforces how good Gilligan is as a writer. which i agree with.

It does. But watching BCS made me appreciate different parts of BB even more that had nothing to do with the continuity of the two shows.

Im not sure quite how to articulate it. Probably cuz im a little high and drunk and not that articulate to begin with.

Andy Griffith said that to Ernest T Bass forty years earlier.

It’s great. It’s like if Rocky was a 60 hour movie.

Do you skip the fly episode on your rewatches?

Yes, cannot stand that episode.

This show obviously had an impact on me, although I’ve only watched it once. I like Walt’s slow transformation to Heisenberg from good to evil. I think of myself as a good person, incapable of really causing harm. But if I was born under different circumstances, could I have been a bad guy?

The opening of Goodfellas hits me the same way—paraphrasing, “ we didn’t think we were doing anything wrong, we thought people that played by the rules were suckers.”

I just discovered what I think might be a better Rocky

No chance in fucking hell i would ever skip the fly episode. Jesse hitting Walt in the face and saying you like that, hurts, huh? Is almost certainly the funniest 5 seconds in the entire series

So you have a pic and avatar of the show and you have only watched it once? Get the fuck off this board and get to watching it again man!

The Fly was a great episode.

Haha. You’re god damn right!

What I never liked was Skylar's reluctance to back Walt's dream of becoming a murderous drug kingpin. What a dumb bitch.

I gave Trinity a standing ovation when he killed Rita.

I'm up to Madrigal in Season 5.

We're about to hit the stretch run of insanely great episodes to close it out.

Franch does seem like a solid dipping sauce.

I finished it up a few days ago, so very good. That last stretch of episodes is amazing and gets better every time I watch it.

Rewatching BCS now

Hank really did make a rookie mistake.

Why would he put the same tracker on Walt's car that he knows Walt knows about and where to look? I suppose you could argue that Hank wouldn't think that Walt would be on to him knowing but it is reckless if you think you are dealing with the Heisenberg that has been 2 steps ahead of you for 2 years.

I know the expression is a Southern one, and I knew I heard it once or twice before. I finally figured out where: Hoop Dreams. Arthur Agee's dad uses it (about himself, unfortunately).

Terrible episode

Interestingly, directed by the same person (Rian Johnson) who directed the best episode (Ozymandias).

I don't mind Fly that much. But they were running out of money and had to do a bottle episode of basically one set.

But, I agree that it isn't a fun rewatch. It was fine.
