I'm still really behind :(

I lost my s1 boxset somewhere between my house and my dad's. If I don't find it I'm buying it again when I go buy s4 (if that's out yet). I really wanna marathon them all and finally catch up.

I stalled out mid s3 the first time, not entirely sure why. I think the action dragged just a little bit and then something or other happened to make me lose time/focus, but what I've seen is QUITE good.

I could always watch it online but thats just not COMFORTABLE to me.

Excellent!

Today i wll scour my room for season 1. If i do not find it i will be buying it and s4 very soon.

I also wanted to go see brave so thats far more than i usually spend in a month or so but watching a show about crystal meth alone in my room is th more viable option

I just watched all of season 4 in one sitting instead of sleeping. More than worth it.

I think Walt was implying they should put Mike in his place like Gus put Victor in his. And honestly, I don't think Walt DOES understand the business. He may think he does, but he's been consistently awful at making calls on that end.

I liked the episode, though it wasn't the most standout episode ever. I think it was a little underwhelming for me, but i also just watched a season and a half in the last 48 hours so that's to be expected.

I'd lean towards it being a "hey, why don't we do something about that guy. Jesse and Walt are close enough that Walt's really not going to threaten him into doing whatever he wants, at least not at this point. He's been working hard at getting Jesse on his side. Jesse's family, Walt would rather he willingly do what he wants and side with him. He wouldn't threaten him into compliance with vague threats like that when Jesse does what Walt wants for the most part without threats. Mike though, is actually actively standing up to Walt and a threat to Walt's authority. I really think he's talking about giving Mike the boxcutter treatment.

Yeah, I don't think Walt would try to plan the assassination of 9 people behind prison doors under police protection when Mike the assassin wont be helping and they would be working against him. Walt doesnt have the power to back up those intentions at all. Not that that would stop him

Oh and loool'd at the scene with Walt/Walt Jr getting their new cars. That was great

This was all of that episode that would load for almost 2 weeks because Flash hates me. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT STOPPED BEING FUNNY THE 5TH TIME THROUGH. Before that it was lol.

I like how we are made to feel sorry for walt when he breaks down infront of hank, only to starting cursing him seconds later when it is revealed to be a trick. There doesn't appear to be any good left in walt.

I didn't feel bad for him. At this point I refused to let myself feel bad for him. He was at hank's office for a reason. Granted I thought the breakdown was just to manipulate Hank... but I was just analyzing every frame to see what the show was pulling.


Anyway, very good two episodes! I really can't wait for the next one. Todd shooting that kid and bugging Hank's office should both have massive implications down the line.

I really, really can't wait.

I dont wanna wait a year :(

God I wanna see Walt taken down so badly. I just watched the last two episodes back to back so they've blended for me a bit.

The scene with Todd learning the trade in the previous episode where he says they caan talk money when e gets it right... something about that scene gave me chills. Todd isn't exactly likable or rootable in any way. He seems pretty slow and just eager to please, and it was pretty mortifying realizing that that was the last person Walter hasin his business... someone who will do whatever he says, hangs on his word, and has no opinions or votes. Todd is like someone who will just do whatever he's asked and nothing else. He's so SUBMISSIVE and blank in comparison to Jesse or Mike or anyone else Walter has had to work with. He's found someone who'll just be his bitch and that was probably one of the most disturbing things for me while watching.

I was also really PROUD of Jesse for walking away without the money. His life still sucks and he has nothing, but he at least got away from walter and shut him up. It was a SMALL VICTORY if nothing else. And then Walter brings him the cash anyway. Talking about old times with a big :D , but the fact that he dropped him the money, it was like one last attempt toget in a victory. I think on some level maybe Walter actually did want his old pal to get his cut, but mostly it felt like one last small victory over Jesse.

Also, I loved Hank and Walter's scene where Hank talks about his old job marking trees, then says its better than chasing monsters. The devestation and shell shock of hank trying to cope with 10 brutually murdered witnesses on his watch, losing ground in the big case and seeing that absolute horror, and trying to talk it out to his brother in law and friend, then dropping that line about monsters, and Walter knowing full well what Hank was talking about and just smiling and saying he liked going camping. That was fucking COLD. Both the complete lack of empathy and the fact that there was NO REFLECTION on being called a monster.

God... I don't wanna wait a year.

The ricin is a chekov's gun I'm waiting to see go off so much. At this rate, I can't imagine it being anything other than someone major's demise.

I can't get most of these on sight. I think this calls for a rewatch of the series
