I see Mike's role next year as helping Jesse figure out who poisoned Brock and/or who killed Jane.

I have HD and Gus's skull looked metal to me for an instant too.  Although I was already thinking "Terminator!" as soon as Gus walked calmly out of the room, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Also, thoughts for next season… the DEA is going to turn every piece of property linked to Gus upside down.  We know that Gus had surveillance on Walt, what are the odds that Hank stumbles across some video or audio recording of Walt?

For everyone who is saying the close up of the Lily-of-the-Valley wasn't subtle enough, remember after last season's finale how many viewers were confused about whether or not Jesse actually shot Gale.  Vince Gilligan probably felt obligated to make this season end as clearly as possible so people didn't feel as if…

Bullshit! proved that Penn & Teller are completely willing to embrace pseudoscience if it supports their political beliefs.  Anyone who "proves" that second hand smoke is harmless doesn't deserve to host a show like this.

If you had never seen the Simpsons and you were just shown seasons 9 and 10, you would think they were great.  I think the main issue is that 2-8 were so transcendent, everything else suffers by comparison.  The last 10 years suck in any context, though.

Sure, the 80's sucked compared to the 90's, if you're comparing Huey Lewis, Tiffany, and Whitesnake to Nirvana, Guided by Voices, and Bikini Kill.  But the 80's also had Sonic Youth, REM, and XTC, and the 90's also had Celine Dion, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Los Del Rio.  It's ridiculous to judge an entire decade as being…

OK, you probably would be "visibly upset" if your friend was murdered, but how shattered Gus seemed, how angry he got, and how he was looking at Maximilio's corpse, it just seemed to me like there was more than the business partnership/friendship they said it was.  YMMV.

Gale always struck me as too child-like to have a clear, well-developed sexuality.

I didn't say he was openly gay in the 80's.  But maybe he decided after this incident that he would hide his sexuality even more.

"Homer's Enemy" serves a good kind of series finale for the classic Simpsons.  There were some pretty good episodes still to come in season 9, but clearly the best seasons were several years in the past by the time season 8 was wrapping up.  To me, "Homer's Enemy" has always felt like the writers apologizing for what…

Seriously, if Jesse wants to be like Mike, shouldn't he try to dress a tad less conspicuously?  Maybe not completely buttoned down, but a strange guy in a plain shirt just hanging out in front a building, I'm not gonna remember, but if he was wearing fucking sequins, "Yeah, Mr. Policeman, I remember that dude!"

Gus is totally gay.  Hector's remark, how visibly upset Gus was when his partner ("partner") died, how long Gus held his grudge, and how reckless normally cautious Gus is willing to be to get his revenge… What more can the writers do besides showing Gus in a gay bar with Bill Rawls?

Shouldn't that be the "John Voight car"?

No "Pubic Enemy"?

Hank is going to figure everything out about Walt.  The only question is what happens after that.  My money is that Hank decides to keep quiet, but ends up getting killed, and we then get to see if and Walt can recognize his own responsibility in the matter.

Something I've been noticing is that they almost never show Walt actually cooking meth anymore.  Just about the only times we see him in his lab, he is just scrubbing down the equipment.  Seems like a great metaphor, the excitement of being independent and in charge has been taken away from Walt, so now he gets no fun…

The Wire had no fifth season.
