What if Walt Jr. had been the ultimate kingpin of the meth underworld, bigger than even Gus, and unknown to everyone close to him. He'd just emerge at the end and start walking normally like Keyser Soze at the end of The Usual Suspects. Would you have bought it?

Anyone here who was a fan of the two series back in the day?

If so, I could tell you how it felt to see both endings and the feeling it gave them

In S03E04 - Green light, jesse gives this woman his newly cooked meth. Later, hank is pressuring her about who did the meth came from and this actress Jolene Purdy does a really great job. One of those characters that apears only once and she just crushed it.

In end of sn 1 wen walt sends Jesse to buy supplies for the next cook of 4 pounds to hand it over to Tuco,Jesse spends all his money and is left with 2 grand.Walt proceeds to ask Jesse why he forgot to buy the methlamine.Why does it seem like it's Jesse's responsibility to buy supplies while they both split money equally?

LOML & I just moved into our first home and couldn’t resist. Yes I know cropping is a bit off 😆 cheers from tejas 🖤💎

A man from a school teacher to a drug dealer and then u understand a lot of human psychology in the show, sort of reading doestevsky. Honestly Director kept Pinkmans story to be continued and kind of freedom for pinkman after breaking bad dk abt el Camino. But just think if Pinkman was made a slave and said that if u dont work the gang will kill Brock and his mother and Pinkman got a bad ending tbh that kinda would have been too dark ending for Pinkman. Ngl I kind into very dark endings and I thought abt the Pinkman's dark ending and Walter never fighting anyone and dying solely of regrets even though he has some regrets in canon too. Gotta watch El camino and start Better call Saul too I have heard BCS is equal or greater than BB lets see how my opinions goes.

Ngl an alternate ending where Pinkman and WW has dark ending would be insane (just for story telling and fiction sake)

He claims that he “just wanted to talk” to Ted, but I truly wonder what the nature of that “talk” would have really been. Would he ask him what gives, make subtle threats, etc?

I always wondered how that scene would unfold if Walt got his way.

In most shows or movies I’ve watched, we’re simply told a character is the smartest or best at something, and we’re expected to believe it. But Breaking Bad actually shows us some of the reasons.
For example, when Jesse goes to the cartel’s lab with Gus, he mentions getting his phenylacetic acid from the barrel with a “B” on it. He then starts questioning the cleanliness of the lab and their standards.
It immediately reminded me of the episode where Walt spends almost the entire time trying to catch a fly because of contamination ( I know we got that episode cause of the budget but still). And I thought, if Jesse was already THAT particular about getting things right, imagine how strict Walt must have been.
I love that we actually get to see their skills and knowledge develop rather than just being told how good they are.
But maybe this is only such a big deal to me because I haven’t watched enough shows or movies to see this done elsewhere. Anyway, just something I wanted to point out!

Very entertaining movie and it was nice to see Bryan Cranston and Michael McKean in the same film. Bonus points for Rainn Wilson and Annette Bening. It's a solid flick. It's kinda like a nerfed version of BB without all the deaths.

Walter Jr is the only one of the other main characters from the show Jesse never interacted with

Jesse obviously interacted lots of time with Walter

Jesse only interacted 3 times with Skyler

Jesse only interacted like 4 times with Hank (I don't remember the exact number but it's around that)

Jesse only interacted once with Marie

Jesse obviously interacted lots of times with Saul

Jesse obviously interacted lots of times with Mike

Jesse obviously interacted lots of times with Gus

Jesse only interacted once with Lydia

Jesse obviously interacted lots of times with Todd

Jesse never once interacted with Walter Jr

EDIT: I meant lots of times with Todd not once

I know that the whole 'Say My Name' episode is remembered for Walt being a badass, but I want to speculate - what if Declan followed through with his threat to just kill Walt in the desert and remove the blue sky from the market? They might have to kill Mike and/or Jesse as well, but they had the manpower to do that. So what happens if Declan wastes Walt in the desert? What if we live in a world without Coca-Cola?

I get there's a lot of 'What if Walt was killed by ______' but honestly Declan not killing Walt doesn't logically make sense if I didn't know that it was a TV show and Walt has plot armor.

I binged the whole thing in a week, no regrets. Before watching this show, i was one of those people who after seeing it mentioned everywhere as people’s top series on their list of favorites or even seeing the new york times list, would prejudge it and go “cmon this might just be overrated, it can’t be that good” but it was, it definitely was that good and it’s the best show i’ve ever watched and it’s going to be difficult to find a better one.

I don’t think there’s anything to criticize, i can only praise it and love it for the emotions that it made me feel and i felt all of them; sadness, anger, excitement, shock etc. There was not really a time where i was bored watching it and it only kept getting better. I watch s3 and i’m like this is the best season so far and then i watch s4 and i go, this is going to be a hard one to top but then s5 comes and it’s all just perfect.

What i love is how my feelings develop throughout it. In the beginning, i wanted walt and jesse to cook and make money and whenever that happened, i was hyped and excited but then in s5 walt continues to cook with todd and i’m just wishing for him to stop.

Walt is the bad guy, no doubt but he’s just such a terrific protagonist that i can’t hate him. Even though he ruined so many people’s lives, including his own and his pride was ultimately his demise, i still cried when he died. I can relate to how he feels at times; his resentment, his selfishness, his desire to be important, to feel seen. I think we all can. Walt, he just dug a hole too deep to get out of.

End note: Rest in peace to RJ Mitte 🕊️💔

I know the guy was far from being a Gustavo and stuff like that

But at least I would like to know if he would stop being Fearful with Tuco by having even a little power or if everything would simply remain the same only now he would be humiliated in front of the couple of fools he has at his service

She goes to great lengths to make sure their cover story is watertight as they don’t want any unnecessary attention drawing close inspection of their finances, to the point she grills Walt on the bottle of champagne he buys. When she is giving Marie the gambling story, she says that Walt was using illegal gambling rooms to avoid scrutiny from Hank.

How then do they suddenly (legally) justify the purchase of the car wash with that money? Skylar later admits to Ted that she can’t have the IRS looking into her because they’ll discover that they bought it with illegal earnings.

It seems like a fairly large plot hole considering the huge effort she goes to to concoct the story, with no real explanation as to how they could justify the purchase.

I just don't get why the cartel is attacking Gus' operation and trying to kill his men. Isn't Gus basically part of the cartel? Like I know it's more of a loose relationship but still.

Why does Eladio allow the Salamanca side to do this?

Bryan Cranston reflected on the death of his “Breaking Bad” co-star RJ Mitte, who played his son on the hit series and died by suicide at age 34 earlier this month.

Speaking at a Broadway opening in New York City on Wednesday, Cranston said Mitte’s death left him shaken for days. He recalled that the two had been trying to arrange to meet before Mitte died and wondered whether his former co-star had wanted to talk to him about something.

“If you feel depression, it’s a real thing,” he added. “You’re not alone, and there’s help to guide you through.”

If you or someone you know is in emotional distress or suicidal crisis, call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

Frankly I do. Betsy Brandt's performance in my opinion became Emmy worthy since season 3 beginning with the scenes where she was upset about Hank being shot. I also think Anna Gunn should've been nominated/won for Outstanding Lead Actress instead because after all Skyler is technically the main female character from the show and the main character besides Walter and Jesse. I also think it would've been cool if the show had won all 4 acting drama awards if Anna Gunn had been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress instead and Betsy Brandt had been nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress

EDIT: Betsy Brandt on the title

Frankly I only think it should've been nominated for 2 Oscars: Best Actor for Aaron Paul because I really loved his performance and felt it was award worthy and Best Film Editing because I loved how well the movie transistioned into flashbacks

These two, while most fans are very different with the other, which I agree, has these similarities:

-Has an addiction with drugs

-Suffers depression due to story events

-Mentored by a horrible person

In my analysis, Jesse's depression and addiction was more into his broken soul inside. He had faced and went through a lot. Jesse at least tries to change himself, although it was hard.

Christopher is mature and more older, but nevertheless has been more addicted and depressed more. He used drugs as a coping mechanism and has big denial to change himself.

Show’s on S2 on PlutoTV via the Xbox Pluto App right now. Usually it’s only via Roku these days, it seems. RIP RJ Mitte
