I get that its aggravating that Walt couldn't run free with her holding him back but, as a character, I don't find her to be bad. She's a good woman, Pollyannaish to be sure, but ultimately is just trying to take care of her family just like Walt.


Nothing she does is really unjustified in the big picture. She just does some stupid shite, too. You'll see. I think Season 3 is where she starts to really get on people's nerves and it never really stops. But she's kind of supposed to.

Keep watching. It gets even better.

Best show on TV by a mile IMO.

Honestly, this is very false, it's still really slow most of the time, and all the action can be predicted a mile away. It's a good show but nowhere near best on TV

Oh by the way Murray, season 3 probably has the most intense season finale of any show I've ever watched before... has the biggest WTF moment I have ever seen on TV.. and is just fricking badass.

Still though.. frick Walt, and frick Skylar

Jesse is one of the only characters I actually like now..

Maybe it's just fresh in my mind because I watched it recently, but the ending of Half Measures literally made my jaw drop.

It didn't happen that way in the book. Sure, the gay thing was implied at times, but they weren't so in your face with it.

Hank is the only redeeming character on the whole show.

Him and the cripple.

I liked his personality upon introduction, but I did think it would get old and he would end up being corrupt. Turns out he's a really good guy and one of my favorites. I identify with Walter more than any character of any show I've ever watched(not the meth part) so he's my favorite by far but I'm a big Hank fan too.

Hell, I don't really hate any of the characters. Kristen Ritter did turn me fast though. I get the feeling that post-rehab Jessie is about to stop being a total frickup so I'm thinking I'll stop wondering why Walter keeps him around soon.

Haven't gotten there yet but I agree its no spoiler.

There's no way you watch this show, see that kid roll up(to what I assume where the Meth Wagon is parked), and not know something bad is going down soon.

Much like kballa is doing with the LOST thread, keep us updated on your progress. I'd love to get your thoughts and reactions after every few episodes or major developments.

Will do man. Since the rest of the series gets even better than the end of season 2, there's no way I won't be able to talk about it.


ETA:

What's up BA? Fear watch BB too or is this a rare case where you two part ways?
