2025-01-09 05:11:37 +0000 UTCIt's nice seeing the parallels between Fring's chicken restaurant as a cover for his operations and Walt's car wash as his cover up- Walt trying to play it off at the register with Lydia like he doesn't know who she is reminds me of how Gus would get when Walt would visit him at Los Pollos. They even pay homage to the crystal ship and the episode Mandala when Walt tried to convince Gus to work with them with Lydia's line: "Get the ship back on course- we'll make it worth your while". Walt places a neatly folded towel under his knees in front of the toilet just how Gus would. The show also points in this direction when Mike tells Walt: "Just because you shot Jesse James, don't make you Jesse James". Jesse James was a famous train robber. Two episodes later we find out Walt and Jesse's train heist plan is successful. Mike was wrong about Walt, and didn't seem to notice Gus' massive pride problem which ultimately led to his death. Walt had to take out Gus for his and his family's safety. What- was Walt supposed to just roll over? There were no pitchforks out when Walt had to kill Krazy-8...

2025-01-08 20:45:55 +0000 UTCAlways happy to see another installment of what I like to think of as "Wednesdays with Walt". The table read of this episode is still available to watch on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tj6ot2HVEmQ&t=1s. It's a really fun watch. Also, in case you have cash to burn, the real life Albuquerque home used to film the exterior shots of the White family home recently went up for sale, primarily because the owner was tired of the sightseers stopping by. The asking price is a cool $4 million.

2025-01-08 20:07:17 +0000 UTCI've lost count of how many reactions I've said this on, but holy shit Dean Norris is good here. I can't imagine the pressure to pull off that confrontation scene and make it believable after nearly 5 seasons of build up. The way he's able to convey the subtleties of rage, heartbreak, betrayal, disappointment, fear, confusion, and disbelief all with one expression is just incredible stuff.

2025-01-08 18:40:38 +0000 UTCI love how they ended this one because it's like you said, after the mid-season finale I don't think anyone thought we'd get the Walt/Hank showdown this early. Figured it would be a cat-and-mouse game that would be drawn out a little longer. This show continues to get better and better every season. Just when you think it can't possibly get more intense, these final 8 episodes are saying "hold my beer".
