I know, and I am a Prime Member, but I want to watch this on TV in the living room with Jamie.
Don't you have an Apple TV?

Final Season? I thought it was renewed for two more?...or was that before Season 4 aired?
Actually, I may be getting muddled up with Dexter! Wow.....final Season. I don't think I will like where they take Walt....I can see me wanting him to die or get caught and then crying when he does!
Oh duh!
You're in for a treat Bry...I think I enjoyed season 4 more than any of the others and I enjoyed those A LOT
Season 4 was definitely the best so far. I've never felt so much tension in one show.
Awesome show. Both riveting and hard to watch at the same time.
Also, each season seems to follow a specific literary conflict type.
Season 1: Man vs. Nature
Season 2: Man vs. Society
Season 3: Man vs. Fate
Season 4: Man vs. Man
Season 5: Man vs. Himself?
Man Vs Himself? Hm. Maybe him vs. his demons. His selfishness. What happened to S1 Walt? He's gone forever now.
http://insidetv.ew.com/2012/07/02/breaking-bad-season-5-clip/ (http://insidetv.ew.com/2012/07/02/breaking-bad-season-5-clip/)
First clip from an episode, from the first I think. Walt and his son discussing the events of the S4 finale. Can't wait, less than 2 weeks away!
So, who watched the season opener so far? I thought it was great!
Awesome. Walt is becoming quite the creepy villain. "We're done when I say we're done". Classic. I loved Jesse's exuberance over "MAGNETS!"
Glad it's back!
Blink though and you'll miss it. Eight episodes??? And we should be grateful I guess that there's any more new stories at all. Sad, sorry state but the truth is eight is better than zero so I guess I'll just be happy.
Hey....that's more than a full UK Season of shows. Look at how long we've waited for a full 6 episode Season of Red Dwarf :)
Breaking Bad opening episode was amazing. And you can see the big difference in Walt's attitude even from the end of Season 4. Winning has made him so dark! Dio you think all of us could have this dark foreboding potential lurking deep within?

No, there are going to be 16 episodes for season 5. Eight will air this summer and eight more will be shown next year.

Right, that's one way of looking at it though you could just as easily call it season six next year couldn't you? The network clearly wants us to look at it the way you're suggesting Rico, so I'll play. The last season of the Sopranos is the first series I remember that did their final season this way, with a long break in the middle, and it's becoming more and more common as time goes on. It's like the winter break before sweeps in February has been extended to almost a year. Not good for people like me who hate waiting.
All that said I can't possibly let this diminish my enthusiasm for season 5. What an awesome premiere! I was very happy to see Jim Beaver back in the beginning of the episode, even though he had like two lines. He's one of my favorite actors from Deadwood and it's nice to see him again. I hope he's used more as the season progresses. The relationship between Walt and Skylar is also one of the elements I'm most interested to see develop over this season. She seems frozen by indecision but...[spoiler]that scene in the hospital was so brilliant, how you could see her face and demeanor transform from concern and sadness into the hard, cold, manipulator that Walt needs her to be. [/spoiler] What a great job Anna Gunn (also from Deadwood) does in this role. And seeing [spoiler] their plan come together at the police station was so cool![/spoiler] Love this show!
It's one season - season 5. This breaking up of seasons with long gaps after half of it has been going on for awhile now. The new BSG used to do it a lot. I'm not a fan of this, but if it gets us longer seasons and more episodes I can live with it. And you are right, the performances all around on this series are amazing.

Right and I remember the wait was so long for the second half of BSG's season 3 that they even released the DVD set of the first half of season 3 before the second half aired! I am not a fan of this either, can you tell? I imagine though, or at least have to hope, that the delay does contribute to the overall high quality of the show. I'd much rather have to wait and have the show retain its high level of quality than have the creative team feel like they have to rush to meet deadlines and compromise somewhere along the line.
edit to add: I like that site Screenrant, Rico, never been there before. Thanks for linking,
Here's a fun little video covering some of the best chemistry moments of the first four seasons. Thought of our resident chemist Rico on this one :)

You said it!
Scott over at ExtraLife just put up this drawing, pretty cool!
That's awesome! He needs to make t-shirts with that image and the phrase, "I am the danger!" under the picture. :)
P.S. I loved how on the latest episode Walt took into account the chemical density difference of two liquids. Chemistry in action baby!
Yes, I love that stuff, it gives a glimpse of old Walt who was so enthusiastic about science. Now, I'm mostly creeped out by him. Never thought I'd say this, but I'm with Skyler...and her character usually is like nails on a chalkboard to me. I love how Jesse is becoming the "brains" of the group, and the heart really, which made it awful when :[spoiler] that weirdo shot that little kid at the end. Jesse conceived the heist just so they wouldn't have to kill 2 innocent train workers, and as a result something way worse happened.[/spoiler]
This show is blazing trails for dramatic TV, I am really excited to see how this wraps up.
This season is just crazy. More intense every week as Walter continues to spiral down deeper into the abyss.
I think I made need medication for the stress this show puts me under!! And by the looks of the finale, the pressure is about to get turned way up! [spoiler]By the way, I really felt for Mike. I know he's a drug guy, but damn. That was rough. What's left of Walt???[/spoiler]
Awesome mid season finale last night. Walt has really become a force to be reckoned with. And the last couple of minutes.....WOW. Wish we didn't have to wait until next summer for the final 8 episodes. Going to be a long wait.
Did anyone else sit on the edge of their seats expecting any character at anytime to be either hit by a tirade of machine gun fire or explosive sniper shots? I honestly didn't know where it was going or what was happening next. And what an ending!!
Yes, absolutely. As usual this show always makes me tense...and the last scene at the cookout I kept waiting for something bad to happen! By the way, the two musical montages in this episode were great! I have been waiting to hear "Crystal Blue Persuasion" on this show!
Here'a a cool site that breaks down what's left for Breaking Bad.

By the way, that area where Hank lives looks just like my neighborhood!
COOL! I love this series so much! It's going to be a sad day when the final episode is over.
The first episode was great. I cheered for Hank.

So will we, BUT I think this last season is slightly beginning to show the cracks of trying to carry this story too far. I think the decision to wrap it up is timed perfectly.

Not sure I agree with that. The way I look at it is they are intentionally setting the pieces into place to wrap up and conclude the series in a meaningful way. So, the writers are moving things to an endgame. They have known for awhile that this was it so they have been able to write for that purpose - unlike some series. Loving every second of it. Last Sunday's first episode back was top notch. And that opening teaser segment - perfect.

Yeah, but having just binge watched the first episodes of Season 5, there were some weaker moments that may have faded from memory. We adore the show, I am just pointing out that we, and others I know, didn't think the start of Season 5 has been as strong.
I think the perspective is different when you watch shows as they air. I've been following this series since it began, via television and it's been a great ride all along. They need to balance the intensity now and then with other episodes. They all can't be as crazy as some of these episodes have been. To me it's just be an amazing look at the characters - especially of course, Walt and Jesse.

Yeah, understand, these are the most MINOR of criticisms. But the tale does require us to accept a lot of happenstance and coincidence and fortunate outcomes for our characters in a show based so solidly in the real world, that to try and milk this for too long does strain credibility. Again, the decision to wrap this up on their on terms this year is a good instinct.
All I know is, that this show more than any other in recent memory, has had me tense every week. It's one of the most finely written shows in years. I have been watching since s1 as well, and I think this show lends itself better to waiting a week than binge watching.
Indeed, but Hell on Wheels, House of Cards, Walking Dead are of equal quality. My critique is valid and I still adore the show. This protestation that watching the episodes over the course of fewer days is less so.
And our opinions are valid too. :)

Crazy, even more intense episode last night. I like how the series is showing the wide impact of what Walt has done. So darn good!
The only thing I am not so thrilled with....
[spoiler]Is the arc they currently have Jesse on. His fall into depression and the way he is caught by the police playing Robin Hood in the hood strained credibility a bit.[/spoiler]
I might be the only viewer who would've been happy if the mid-season finale was the end of the show. That's what I'd have called good, 70's style ambiguity.
That said, the new episodes are keeling things up.
[spoiler]
I really like how irrational and over the top Hank's reaction was. He is being a terrible cop, but very human. [/spoiler]
I don't want ambiguity. I was burned by the Sopranos...artistic or not, faithful viewers deserved a decent ending. Vince Gilligan has said there US a definitive ending and he feels satisfied, so that's hopeful. As far as Hank goes [spoiler] he really is Ahab-ing it up with Walt. I even wondered if Marie was wired when she went to talk to Skylar. I also find it pretty amazing that after last "season" Skylar is all in with Walt, telling him they need to keep quiet since Hank has nothing...except maybe Jesse now. [/spoiler]
one word for this show
Heisenberg!
V
You clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in: I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the one who knocks!
Walter White: Now... Say my name.
Declan: ...Heisenberg...
Walter White: You're god damned right!
Tread lightly.
I'm in the empire building business.
I am the DANGER.
I don't go to work and a company that could be listed on the Fortune 500 ceases to be!

Walt gives Hank the Wrong CD (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mVq_4BA5DQ#ws)
OMG! That's so awesome! Man, this show is so darn great! What an episode this week!
[spoiler]Between the awkward dinner, the video CD, and Jesse finally learning how bad Walt has broken - man oh man! It's getting explosive![/spoiler]

Someone needs to remind me..
[spoiler]What is the deal with the ricin cigarette again? I recall Walt making it but who was it meant for and why did Jesse have it?[/spoiler]
Didn't you binge watch this show recently Bryan? :)
[spoiler]The ricin cigarette Walt made to try to get Jesse to poison Gus Fring (also he did it earlier too for Tuco). Basically this alerts Jesse to Walt's ability with poisoning and chemistry. Which leads Jesse to the correct assumption that Walt poisoned Brock (the little boy) even though the boy was poisoned by a plant Walt had - not by ricin. Remember, Walt used the poisoning of Brock to pull Jesse back in to his side and against Gus, etc.[/spoiler]
Easy - right?
[spoiler]Walt cooked up ricin to kill Tuco back in S2, then made some to kill Gus and it fit into a cigarette. He made Jesse think hat he had left the cigarette where his girlfriend's boy could find it, because Brock was poisoned, but not by ricin he finds out, that's that shot of the plant on Walt's pool deck....Jesse panics and thinks some innocent person could find it. But what happened was Huell lifted it from him in Saul's office, and looking at the cigs after he realizes his weed is gone makes him realize what happened to the ricin...and starts putting shit together. [/spoiler]

Any everything thing in my spoiler box happened even longer back in time for those of us who watch the show the old fashioned way - as it airs. :)

And also realize...[spoiler]at the beginning of the second half of this season a few weeks ago, when we were in the (relatively near?) future and Walter was at his abandoned house scaring the neighbors, the purpose of that visit was to retrieve the Ricin cigarette from the electrical outlet where it was hidden.[/spoiler]

I was thinking that as well...
Vince Gilligan has said that Walt will have a personal victory at the end of all of this. This week, with the video, I was like...Walt is a puecevifvshot! Holy cow! But somehow, I am still on his side .
Keep in mind his 'real' goal all along was to simply provide for his family. He never expected to survive the cancer.
We're watching this season - Walt is your basic psychopath. After what Walt did to his own brother-in-law - he would sell out his own family if it meant his survival. He's a ticking time-bomb.
Walt is far from being a psychopath. He has done everything from the start for his family - at least in his mind. Another great episode this week. I like the way these last episodes are playing out.

[spoiler]Looked like he was trying to stop from pooping his pants as his short lived victory crumbled to pieces around him.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]But he identified himself as police, and then they just have a Mexican standoff in silence.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]He probably thought, rightly so, that if he took his attention away from the staredown for more than a second, the bullets would start flying. Honestly it was like a "wtf" moment for him I'm sure, as he wasn't expecting any type of resistance at all[/spoiler]
This is what I thought ...
[spoiler]Hank was holding is gun with both hands. To reach for his badge would have given the bad guys an opening. I think he will survive this fight.[/spoiler]
I agree Rico [spoiler] I think Gomey won't live, Jesse will escape, and Hank will be wounded and Walt talks them into not killing them. But I'm wrong with my predictions every week. [/spoiler]
GOOD GOD. I can't take it....
[spoiler]Walt giving Skyler an alibi on the phone knowing the police were listening keeps you feeling sympathetic towards him[/spoiler]

Love the bit where Bryan throws the pizza.
Yeah! Lots of cool little in stuff like that. Tonight - second to the last episode!!!
I liked this recent episode. Got to catch our breath a little. Not sure who I feel sorry for the most at this point. Only one more to go! Oh, Todd is such a creepy dude!
Whew!
[spoiler]Clearly this is going to end bad for everybody, they are pulling no punches. I can't believ the executed that Mom! I think I see the ending as Walt and Jesse wipe out the Nazi gang, they have made that group so horrible it feels like they are setting us up for that, and Walt dies, maybe Jesse get's to live.[/spoiler]
I might need CPR after the final episode next week. :)
[spoiler]The scene with Walt Jr. on the phone was more heartbreaking for me than Hank's death the week before. If you care at all about Walter (even in spite of all he's done) you can't help but feel so horrible at hearing his son say those things to him. I agree with above comments in that I'm getting a sense that Jesse will make it out ok in the end.[/spoiler]
I'm thinking Walt will head back home, rescue Jesse and together, shoot Jesse's captors.
I say Walt dies killing the Nazi's and Jesse talks off with the kid and the money.
Close, but....[spoiler]I think Walt will kill himself with the ricin.[/spoiler]
I think you are right Rico. [spoiler] This was just the episode we needed to prepare for the finale, caught us up to the flash forwards, gave in some great character moments with Walt (I loved Robert Forster as the "vacuum guy". 10,000 bucks to play cards, I'll take it. I also loved how Walt was going to let himself be arrested until he saw his old buds from Gray Matter saying he didn't really have much to do with starting the company, and that superior Heisenberg guy came back. Awesome. Can't wait for next week. Then I'll be sad. [/spoiler]
I'm putting my prediction for the last show in a hermetically sealed mayo jar.
Really a good, solid final episode. This is the way to end a series (yeah I'm looking at you "Lost" writers). Just an amazing show and journey. Thanks Vince Gilligan!
It was good, very good. Not AMAZING but Jamie and I liked what we got. She would have preferred a little more closure as to the fate of Jesse as he has always been her favorite.

Probably one the top 10 best shows ever on TV.
Top FIVE! I haven't felt that way after a show was over in a LONG time. Maybe TNG...but that isn't the same because there was a movie coming 6 months down the road. Wonderful wrap up, poetic ending, it was all truthful to the characters' journeys. Nicely done.
Never saw a single episode ... might look into that after I start and finish the wire.
Gt to watch the finale on netflix tonight. Definitely solid. Keeping to the tone of the show, things didn't end on a happy note, they ended on a realistic one.

No - but I have heard how good it is. Maybe I will watch when I renew HBO when Game of Thrones comes back on! (or curb your enthusiasm). :)
Don't know how much longer this will be available...alternate ending

That was fast! Took me like 5 years!
Yeah, when both my wife and I like a show, we can work through a few episodes a night. You guys weren't kidding, this was a great show. Although the finale was a bit much, I still enjoyed it immensely.
Hope we get to see the TV show about Saul that I have heard mentioned.
