Breaking Bad - The T.V. Series

[bustybbwlover]

the power play walt pulled at the end of the finale was impressively ballsy...walt certainly has changed it seems in particular since the airplane crash he has taken a much harder stance...altho i suppose that can be traced to him watching jane die anyway that's what i enjoy about the show there's no single incident which makes walt become more brutal (or change in general) but progression towards what he has become, he's changing the way we all change by the impact of each of the events in our lives

I'm glad they didn't name the show breaking good.
about a chemist in perfect health who has a beautiful darling wife who never acts like a complete cunt.

btw, the way her boss wanted her too move in with her after he banged the homely bitch a few times.
all too realistic these days.
desperation.
i knew guys in the states that would bang anything with a wet hole, others who fell in love with the first girl who looked at them.

great show however.
hope hank gets well soon..........and then dumps that goofy annoying wife and gets himself a hot russian bride.
I picture walt better off with a latina or a black woman with a good attitude though.

lmao!! its a great show. but i heard that theyre going to wait until next may to start filming which means it wont air till atleast sept

I keep thinking back to Walt telling Gus, "I can't be the bad guy." I guess that was a rationalization play on how we want to see ourselves versus reality. IMO, Walt went down the "bad guy" road in season 1. It's just that he's really "broken bad" since then.

I was a fan of the Sopranos. But the writing on this show is consistently SO good that it makes the Sopranos look like it was written by a third grader. Other than Pine Barrens and a few other episodes, I can't think of a consistent run of Sopranos episodes that came close to matching what Breaking Bad offers up every single week. What characters! What a show! :thumbsup:

ITS BACK!
Tonight, season 4.
I'm hyped.

So do you think dumb ass Jesse shot Gail?
How is Walt gonna get out of this?
I can't wait.

 

[Rey C.]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that Gale had a closed casket funeral off camera. I'm trying to remember, but I think this is the first person Jesse has actually killed, right? I think Walt has killed 4 or 5... or more?

Being a cold pragmatist, I think Gus is going to have to put up with Walt (for awhile). I don't think he'll make another move on Walt and Jesse until he has a solid, long term plan. Plus Gus has taken out his old nemesis in the Mexican cartel, so I think he has some breathing room now.

For anyone who gets a kick out of Hank, he has a blog at AMC. I used to have an attorney who was kind of like Saul. I get a kick out of him too!

And yeah, I'm also looking forward to the premiere tonight! :thumbsup:

Here's the extended trailer for the premiere.

Poor naive Gale.

 

[zell]

I'm kinda pissed.I don't have cable anymore,so I'll have to miss all the episodes as they air.

But I do have ways to watch it.

Can't wait to find out how this season is going to play out.

With all the bs on tv these days,this is without a doubt the best show on network tv and basic cable.

 

[meesterperfect]

Poor naive Gale.

he was.
good opener, just confused about why gus did what he did.

lab notes, oh boy.

 

[Marlo Manson]

I forgot what his name, you know the guy gus had issues with, maybe he was supposed to be watching over gale to make sure nothing happened to him, or maybe he was supposed too make sure jesse was eliminated and failed to do so??? :dunno: that was a surprise, cuz I like that guy, but oh well. not everybody is gonna make it to the end. :2 cents:

It was probably that. He failed in his responsibility, but he was also acting arrogant about being able to cook the meth like he was able to resolve his mistake. I think he just frustrated Gus. It could also possibly have something to do with the fact that he was seen at the crime scene.

Or Gus could just be a sadistic SOB and that was his way of saying that he'd give Walter a chance. Great scene btw. He just non-nonchalantly says nothing, does the deed, showers and get's dressed again while Walter is flipping out.

Also liked Jesse's cognitive dissonance. He seemed to go through a big psychological change and I think he'll become a ruthless killer in the future.

I also thought it may have something to do with him starting to cook a batch or maybe it was because he was seen @ the crime scene, but I figured the to 2 reasons I mentioned in my prior post would trump the other 2 reasons and wouldn't cause gus to do what he did (Your right gus is scary sadistic SOB.. I certainly wouldn't wanna be in business with him for any reason) maybe the reasoning behind it will be addressed in a later episode. :dunno::glugglug:

 

[Rey C.]

How can the writing on Breaking Bad be so damn good, while the writing on 99% of the other shows on TV be so damn bad?

Just my opinion, but I think that Gus killed that guy because he failed his assignment. He was sloppy and got emotional about how he could correct the mistake (he could cook and they could still whack Walt and Jesse). But remember, up to this point, that guy had always been kind of like Gus: cool, effective, careful, etc. And I think Gus took his time about it so that Walt and Jesse (and the ex-cop henchman) would understand that "the wages of being a fuckup are death." Also, I think that's the first person we've seen Gus directly harm (by his own hands). So that could have also been a way to communicate that Gus will "get his hands dirty" if you call his bluff.

Hey Marlo, ya know who Gus reminds me of? Marlo Stanfield from The Wire! Yeah, Gus is more polished. But below that polish, he is a cold blooded, unemotional individual. And as he showed last night, he'll go "street" on your ass if he needs to, just like Marlo did in the final episode of The Wire. Scary! I hope they keep Breaking Bad on for at least a couple more seasons. This is great stuff!!!

 

[meesterperfect]

the character, named victor seemed out of character to me(plus a bit fatter).
but it would make sense that gus would kill him because he was seen at the crime scene, thats the only logical reason to kill him.
but he only told bald mike that, not gus.
unless mike told gus.
killing him for trying to cook makes no sense.

good opener.
one thing disappointing is hank, he seems like he's out of the picture now unless he makes a miracle recovery.
also physical therapy bills could be big, but not that big as they are implying.
he's at home.......its hospital/rehabilitive center stays that are huge, not home therapy.

whatever, great show, jessies now a coldhearted killer.......nice, that could be very useful in the future.

 

[PirateKing]

The way I see it is this: Victor was being presumptuous. He was all like "so what? I can do it too.". Walter was explaining that there were also small details that victor would not be able to take into account when it comes to cooking meth. I think Gus believed that. And here you have Victor making empty guarantees and was willing to waste Jesse and Walt based on that guarantee that he could do their job himself. He was gambling a lot on that statement. Gus is a smart businessman, he knows better. Victor would have fucked up eventually and screwed Gus over. Gus basically said "don't play me & make such conceited claims".

Yes (Rey c.) Gus does have allot of the characteristic's Marlo had, and they both have eerily similar demeanor's, Marlo was straight street, while (like you say, gus is more polished) Gus has taken on a business mans persona, although I never (in my mind) compared the 2 of them, (straight up against one another) they both do have that cold blood running through there veins, and most of the time very unemotional, even tempered, like nothing really shakes them mentally. great comparison.. :2 cents::clap:

Hey PK I think many of the reasons you just gave were Victors undoing, but I am still hung on a cliff, about the real reason behind it.. maybe it will come out eventually. :dunno:

(just a reminder to everybody, posting in this thread, lets try to discreetly dance around and about things in a NON spoilish way) I don't want people to read this thread and then be pissed cuz we already blew the episode or the scene for everybody else that hasn't seen the episodes yet.. if you guys wanna talk about everything out in the open, PLEASE do so by posting a *SPOILER ALERT* @ the beginning of your posts so nobody can blame us/ this thread for ruining there "BREAKING BAD" experience.. just saying.. :2 cents::bowdown::glugglug:

 

[VeronicaVice]

OMG!!! the new episode of season 4 was CRAZY!

 

[Ravenholm]

I've seen up to episode 8 of season 3 so far. I've got all three seasons here. I like what I'm seeing just now. I have to say though Walt's wife Skyler is a honey so she is. I'd just love to fuck her brains out the first chance I got. YES she is one annoying bitch but she is a sexy annoying bitch. She can sit on my cock anytime.

 

[Dman25]

Hands down the best series on TV.

 

[Marlo Manson]

Hmmm another stellar episode.. *SPOILER ALERT* don't read beyond here if you want this episode to be surprising.

I have a few questions to pose too all of you, maybe I missed something :dunno: or maybe I overlooked a couple of things.. 1st, is Mike sick? what was that about in the diner with the cuff link of his shirt and the blood near his nail, was that from cleaning up from victor? or is it something else?? Jesse started to party again, that can't be good for his job, lets see how bad it gets this time.

Whose house did Walt drive up too and who was that who called Walt right before he was gonna shoot whoever lived there?? and back to Mike, why did he kick Walt's A$$ in the bar??? maybe after hearing different takes on the episode maybe it will make more sense to me.

 

[bustybbwlover]

as to why gus killed victor...i'd say it was simply to say 'you are all expendable, regardless of why'...as to the second episode the ending with jesse sitting alone trying to drown out his thoughts with the speakers was perfect, it's a rough life lesson we all learn at some point: what we cause, be it good or bad, we must deal with the aftermath of alone, everything else is just an attempt at distraction be that buying a gun for defense (or offense) or partying for three days straight
