It would be much more awesome for the band to come down and beat the hell out of the guy.

"And if you ever plan on calling the cops on one of my guys again, you go ahead and get two barrels.”  Says a guy who isn't gonna do jack shit.  I mean, come on.  Mike's a good character, but he's neutered as hell when it comes to Walt.  Walt could videotape himself having a three-way with Gus's wife and Mike's wife

You're right, but it is possible to spend too much time showing Hank connecting dots.

"it’s a form of blindness he’s not going to be able to afford much longer," Donna says.  Well, in real-world terms, that's true; but in the show's terms, it feels like Walt can get away with it pretty much forever.

Except when it comes to Walt and Jesse.  Then he is discounting the unlikely constantly.

For two episodes or so, he didn't do anything but act like a tard.

It wasn't just the BJ.

Yes, ironically, since the "half measures" speech, no one has had the balls to take full measures except Walt.

Loads of stupidity here.  Woman-on-man position is one of nature's greatest miracles, and anyone who doesn't love it is crazy.

For all intents and purposes, I think Victor's analogy was correct:  I'm a cook, I'll just follow the recipe.  No meth head will give a shit if the shit is 99% pure, or 96%, or whatever Victor could manage.

It really was a shit movie, and I enjoy Tim and Eric's work.

Hilarious episode.  Bryan Cranston's consternation while Skylar made him rehearse their story was total gold.  Of course she's right about the need to be careful, and how right she is might be the most annoying thing about her.  And Saul also had great lines.
The Walt Whitman thing was brilliant, though of course you

I agree.  They were poor characters, and they did an absolutely horrible job of coming at Hank.

I don't understand why it has to be there if you're watching live TV.  They ought to have more balls.

The instant they started drinking the champagne I thought they were gonna fuck before the episode ended.

Great stuff.  Everyone's loneliness and alienation in this episode was brutal.
I hope it says "Walter White" somewhere in those lab notes.

In shows that depict the world of violent crime even somewhat realistically, people have to be killed.  But very few shows are willing to follow the obvious corollary: in such dangerous circumstances, even people you care about can be killed.
But 35 episodes have gone by, and all the main characters are still

I've only seen the first few minutes of this episode, at this point, but I'm just not feeling the tension that I think the show wants me to feel.  Will Vincent give Jesse what's coming to him?  Of course not.  Will Mike give Walt what's coming to him?  Of course not.  As the centers of Breaking Bad universe, they are
