Well, Vince said it would be "a victory" for Walt. So I feel like someone finding it in a hundred years or something and would rediscover his legacy.

Calling it - The ending of the series is going to be that spot where the money is buried, nobody knowing where it is. Or, even, someone finding it many years down the road once Walter White is long dead.
Just like Ozymandias, Heisenberg's entire empire and legacy is reduced to nothing but a small testament under the

Gus left the tracker on going from work to home, thus not letting Hank know he was on to him but establishing his innocence.

I love them having to dance around the fact that the show is about meth. "He then throws a crystal…line structure."

Jesse and Hank team up to take down the monster Walt has become?

Did anyone else think the episode was going to end as the garage door was shutting? If "Produced by Vince Gilligan" had popped up there I would have flipped over my entire table

You clever bastard.

Best opening to watch with someone who is watching the show for the first time. The moment bald Walt is revealed and they're like "WHAT"

I'm almost 100 percent sure the opening to Fifty-One was supposed to be intentionally gaudy and awful and over the top.

I think the opening to Season 2 gets points for pure "Wait, what the fuck?" and not being afraid to alienate the audience a bit

Feels more like King Lear, at least in Season 5.

I don't understand all the hate about the grimness and violence - the violence in this was brutal, but in never for one moment felt exploitative.

No, it foregoes constant exposition.

Plinkett go home

I thought it was implied that Perry White intentionally gave him the job.

Louis CK has also made 'Louie' a character at this point, and part of the reason the show is so great is around the midpoint of Season 2 and all of Season 3 it became about that character's development, rather then just funny situations.

So having Moriarty merely be arrested means she's perfectly set up for a canonical, Reichenbach, series endgame way down the line, right? :x

It seems like having an active interaction with a main writer and KNOWING they read your criticism would be helpful. Knowing they're reading your opinion gives you even more reason to be honest, because it will help shape the show in the future, for the better.
