Breaking Bad - Season One

[gravedigger]

AMC is now running this series late Wednesday nights with back-to-back episodes. They're going through the entire series leading up to what I assume is the premiere of the new season (four?). I missed it the first time around so I'm catching it now.

The pilot had a couple pretty annoying things to it- specifically Walt saying an unloaded Glock 22 is heavy (it isn't, by any standard) and how the DEA was RETARDED enough to not see a cherry old sedan with a license plate that said "THE CAPN" when they were looking for "Captain Cook". That said, I really enjoyed it. The scene at the clothes store where Walt stands up to the dickheads pretty much sealed my love for the guy but I always find the "I've got nothing left to lose" characters pretty interesting/entertaining.

Incredible show. I am waiting for them to get to S3. I got S1 and S2 on DVD, but didn't get through them before S3 kicked off. You're going to fall in love.

This show is one of the best shows EVAR. Season 3 was fucking nuts.

Season 3 was fucking nuts.

Just to make this point as clear as possible. Season 3 is beyond incredible, and a couple episodes from that season alone are dueling it out in my brain for 'most favorite episode ever'.

I love how Walt and the Cap'n bicker like an old married couple. The second episode was gruesome but hilarious.

Billy, I'll give you a heads up when Season 3 is going to start on the replays.

Watched episode three last night. The stuff with Walt and Krazy-8 was intense. I saw the plate thing coming so when Walt put the puzzle together I was all "YESSSS." I'm sure finding the gas mask at the end is supposed to build tension but these DEA guys are so dopey I'm not too worried...yet.

Watched all 3 seasons for the first time a few months ago on Blu and it is GREAT. For me, probably the best show currently airing on tv. I highly recommend it. Some of the best hours of television are in this show.

Thanks very much. I was going to just start DVRing them in a few weeks, and see what I get.

I concur with Fil's opinion.

You're making me want to re-watch this show. Probably pick up the set on blu after Christmas.

Holy shit, the way Walt deals with the BMW-driving douchebag is EPIC.

[gravedigger]

GOTDAMN. And that was nothing compared to the INSANE meeting with Tuco. Holy shit, Walt is more badass that Jack Bauer. This show is crazy good.

My direct boss looks like Hank.

Hahaha... You haven't seen shit, yet.

First season ended this week. I guess AMC only ordered about seven episodes because they didn't realize a show about a mild-mannered, dying-of-cancer high school chemistry teacher cooking meth for his family wouldn't be ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS EVER? Great finale with a WTF ending.
