What happened to Ted anyway?
He was hitting that pretty hard, but maybe I snoozed through their breakup thingy.

ok, Dr. Crimelord.
Mebbe he's just a hands on, people's person.

She told him to back off after Hank was gunned down. Crisis of conscience or tired of the cawk, who knows? It's not like she went running right back to Walt...

Ah yeah, now that you mention it, I recall Ted coming a'knocking for some sweet luvin', and Skyler giving him the cold shoulder, around that time.
Anyways, now that she and Walt are getting into bed business wise, shouldn't be long until he's tapping that again, bed wise.
If only she'd shut her whiny trap for 2 seconds, with her insistent "Oh Walt, how guilty you should feel!"

I loved the look on her face in the episode when she found the signed divorce papers and a missing bag of money. :olo:

Walt needs to stop being guilty about letting pinkman's hot junky bitch die. Its really starting to get in the way of business.
Was also a bit dissappointed with the story still being about meth. Dude is a serious chemist with a serious lab; he should be working on making a new drug... or at least rounding out the portfolio with some extacy and psychadellics.

@PlanB - really hoping that will be the ultimate end-game when they decide to wind this one down.. Walt ending up legit with more sound investments like the car wash.

Yeah, somehow I can't picture this show ending up with Walt, Skyler, Hank and Jesse sitting on a veranda, lulzing it up, reminiscing the "good old days".

I'm hoping BB runs for at least 2 more seasons, but it has to end in a lot of tears, hurt, blood, death, and possibly semen, I'd think.

WTF happy drugs are you on, and where can I get some?

It could still be that way, even w Walt transitioning to 100% legit. He could lose everything that matters and still be richer than balls...and the cancer could come back too...

Brilliant ending to a fantastic show. What I love about BB is it always surprises - I would never have guessed that it would come to THAT in last weeks episode. Just brilliant, brilliant writing.

Heh, I was so off. I should have read the episode synopsis before talking.

Anyways, great ending. Can't wait for season 4.

Decent start to the new season (and I can't believe it has been a year already... holy fuck, time flies)

I did find the whole gus/meth lab scene a tad contrived and it was also quite predictable what was gonna happen, but the execution (if you pardon the pun) was done flawlessly as usual. Also great to see Walt taking a shit into his poop bowl, while ordering minerals on ebay :olo:

I assume the premise for this season is the ongoing tension between walt/jessie + gus, as they conspire against each other until the inevitable final shitstorm. Sounds good to me and I hope they show more of gus' true character, as they did in last nights episode. He has played the placid bad guy for too long, it's time to get nasty. More saul too! He's one of the best characters on the show.

Anyway, a decent 8/10 episode. I'm sure we'll get much better as the season progresses.

I didn't think 4.1 was all that amazing but I'm looking forward to Walt being more of a bad ass.

WARNING SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!








Somehow making the decision of killing that chemist, has a negative effect in my perception of Walt. It somehow shits all over his character, and what i thought it stood for.... which up to now I had found, cool, collected and calculated while still keeping a higher ethic than the people around him in the drug scene.
He has lowered himself to their level which could accurately be described as nothing more than self serving and uninhibitedly destructive.

In my eyes , he needs to do something brilliant to lift himself above the status quo of simply being just another drug cook.
However, the show has great acting, excellent scene direction and the audio is masterfully done, .....that's what keeps it above the rest for me. But they better get the essence of Walt back in line. Now this direction change could be purposely done, to show that when you get your self in knee deep shit, there isn't much you can do to keep from smelling like it.

imo they made him look like a blubbering BITCH in the premiere, kinda made me wish Gus would've taken the boxcutters to him instead.
