Usually as soon as the episode ends, I immediately want the next episode to start.

Absolutely this. Spielberg is so heavy-handed with the trite sentimentality. Other than the god-awful framing story, excellent film.

True, the Red Wedding had a similar impact but I read the books first, so I did know it was coming. You make a good point though, even when I knew it was coming, actually seeing it happen was a tremendous gut punch. But since I had read it first, I knew they were really really going to die. Not so while watching BB…

These jokes will never not be funny to me.

Well, he is  alive…….

I actually had to watch it again on re-broadcast because the first time I had to look away almost every scene. It was too much for me to take all at once, unbroken. I probably won't ever watch it again.

@avclub-3be42d8a3412057f79af152555e39bd4:disqus yes, watching it a second time - and this time looking at the screen instead of away from it - its obvious then that he is giving Skyler an out. Cranston, just wow. He breaks down the most when she asks about Hank, knowing he has to let everyone in the room will think he…

That nod wasn't just the go ahead to kill Jesse. It was signing off on torture. And then, knowing what's coming, he still hisses the last blow to Jesse - "I was there. I watched Jane die. I could have stopped it, and I didn't".

Gosh, does this take me back…

RJ Mitte really was phenomenal tonight, first at the car wash getting the lowdown from mom & Aunt Marie, then at home, I cried seeing him fling himself over his mother and calling 911. Its nice to see that he, too, can carry his own weight in these beyond-intense scenes.

Maybe he can kill Todd like Walt poisoned the two guys in the camper? Huh? Right? MAYBE???? Please, let it be maybe.

I feel ya. My friends watch "Real Housewives" and "Biggest Loser". So, y'know……be grateful for what you got.

When it came right down to it, I don't think I ever really believed Hank would die. Right up until the gunshot, I didn't believe it. I've never seen anything like this on television before, not even close.

I have been twisted up in knots for 2 1/2 hours now. I feel caught between puking and crying. Just incredible.

It didn't even occur to me while it was going on that THAT is what Walt was doing, but I think you're right, and it's brilliant.

I never thought of it either, but it does track for me…although I'm not really sure I want any kind of redeeming qualities in Walt right now. Not after giving Jesse up for torture.

THE REVIEW IS UP AND NOW IT WON'T LOAD OH IS THERE NO END TO THIS HELL?

That was hard to watch, as a woman and a mother, but almost as bad was seeing Skyler run down the street after him. I know I wouldn't be able to run fast enough, scream loud enough…..I'd have probably laid down on the road and hoped to just die.

Just when I didn't think I could take any more, he grabbed Holly. And then that phone call…

Incredible. It was like the real Walter Hartwell White finally came out - and he's a fusion of Heisenberg and Walt.
