September 4, 201311 yr Just getting round to catching up. Finished season 1 a couple of nights ago and just about to watch ep 3 of season 2. Finally picking up a bit for me. Don't quite "love" it atm, but I do like it a fair bit. I think I only started to properly GET the show around episode 10/11 of Season 2. There's an episode called Peekaboo which is what made me start to realise I was getting hooked. But it was later in the season when it started getting wow. Definitely keep with it, it gets more and more intense with every season. Infact I'm not sure there's an series that does tension quite like Breaking Bad.
September 10, 201311 yr Finished season 2. FABULOUS. And so much more ACTION! Sad that Krysten's character died though. The show REALLY makes you think about the whole DRUGS thing. It especially has effect on you after seeing the whole process of preparing and shooting heroin.

After that incident that you spoilered, that's when the tension cracks up for me.

Absolutely gutted at that spoilered part. :( I know we're not supposed to like him, but surely you're supposed to at least "root for the bad guy" (the purpose of this show), but I'm really struggling to root for Walt. :lol: He's so unlikeable to the point I just want him gone, but I also know that there is no show without him, so I don't want him gone too soon :lol:. Ugh.

Ugh. That's the idea though. Everyone has their idea of when Walt 'breaks bad'. Mine is after that incident, but for some people it's from the very first episode. It's what so good about the character. He's a bad man doing things for 'good' intentions. You should root for Jesse!
September 11, 201311 yr I don't think Walt breaking bad happened for me yet. Even after that incident. Jesse is really likeable indeed though. Probably my favourite character at the moment. I want him to get clean and pull himself together now. You're probably a couple of episodes ahead by now, but I literally just finished that season too!

Ugh. omg YES! I actually caught myself thinking he is RIDICULOUSLY unlikeable during the scene where he apologised to his son for that GIVE ME THE BOTTLE incident. (and nah i've not watched any episodes of s3 yet I LIKE TO SLEEP EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE :D )
September 11, 201311 yr So a Saul Goodman spin off has been confirmed. Interesting! There was no chance AMC were going to pass up on it. Not sure I like the idea of it being a prequel though please don't die Saul!
September 16, 201311 yr Latest episode scored the show's highest ever ratings.. Finally got round to watching it. Jesus Christ. That was the Emmy win for Cranston next year without a doubt. Even though we all knew it was coming Hank's execution was painful to watch. I was cursing.
September 23, 201311 yr I think I just read something about how season 4 ends. Gus' death, that is. CRAP. i'm still on s04e03 so it was rather UGH to read that. Oh well I actually knew it's happen one day.

Oh well I actually knew it's happen one day. I had it spoilt for me too, although it's one of those moments where you just know it's going to happen at some point, throughout the 4th season. It's the HOW that makes it interesting.
September 23, 201311 yr Pavel just wait until you get to the 5th season. Wow! I can't believe they murdered Andrea like that. Truly heartbreaking to watch.
September 28, 201311 yr So currently just finished Season 5, Episode 8! So GLAD I can watch the next one now! Aha. [/nosleep] I think I'd have died if I was following at the normal pace with THAT ending. One year wait? Thankfully I've managed to get round to blitzing through this, really. Really getting into it and although I still find majority of the characters unlikeable (I only care for Jesse, Saul & Mike, Hank's ok-ish), I cannot deny how well made this show is. So beautifully done.

So beautifully done. The unlike ability of the characters is purposely done imo. It's interesting because Jesse, Mike and Saul all have the dirtier pasts, but you just want to root for them. I have a love/hate relationship with Walt. I hated him at the end of the beginning of the 5th season, but in Part 2 I grew to like him again. Just wait until the last 8 episodes, they're an absolute rollercoaster ride.
September 29, 201311 yr All up to date now. I love how this show has progressed with each passing episode! Since I last commented, Hank has died! I'd expected that to happen, but not until the finale, so to see it happen as soon as it did was quite a shock. I really hope Jack, Todd & co all get their comeuppance, but thanks to Jesse as opposed to Walt! Justice for Jesse! Seriously disturbing stuff with the way Walt last spoke to Jesse (after he'd confessed to watching Jesse's gf die!) and then for that last scene with Jesse watching Andrea get shot! Oh man! Some really gripping and tense stuff though! Really glad I stuck with it and caught up in time for the finale. Very intrigued to see where it all ends!
September 30, 201311 yr Not sunk in that it's finished. Fitting finale, tied up everything nicely, I was so glad to see Badger and Skinny Pete make reappearances. It ended the only way it could have done, and it was excellent to see Walt finally open up. So much happened, it was unreal.
October 1, 201311 yr *.* Not many shows bow out with a season like that, then again not many shows are Breaking Bad.
October 4, 201311 yr OK, 5 seasons in, I am considering watching this from the start - what it is about?
