So very Aphex Twin ...

There’s definitely something off in the fact that Darlene apparently doesn’t exist in this world. That suggests that this is just one of a number of permutations of the ‘real world’ rather than an actual, definitive ‘ideal world’. Tyrell didn’t seem to happy in it either. Also - although perhaps it was my imagination…
Couldn’t disagree more. Janice was one of the best things about this season. But I also never understood people's distaste for Cannavale.
Well damn. I didn’t know I wanted it until now, but I want Garland to write a Star Wars movie.
I thought that as well. For anyone who doesn’t know, she and Sam Esmail are married.
Well this is the fourth season, so how much you wanna bet those *are* the episode titles for the rest of the season?
“’Unauthorized’ isn’t just the first episode in the show’s history to not have its title formatted in the form of a computer file or program...”
It was.
This site just spent an entire week shitting on American Beauty, so in this bubble yeah.
I’m blown away that people think that sequence was anything other than Cliff remembering “Oh yeah, that’s why anybody who was on set at Green Hornet isn’t going to hire me anytime soon: Because I already had a reputation, then I made an ass of myself by picking a fight with the popular guy that everybody liked.”
There is literally no space within the film for this to have actually happened.
Is it a dream sequence? It felt a lot more like a memory, of the time Rick guested on Green Hornet and he convinced stunt coordinator Randy (Kurt Russell) to hire Cliff on for the day. And then during some downtime, Cliff and Bruce had their fight, before Cliff got kicked off set. I base my “it’s a memory” opinion on…
Having re-watched it recently, I like the final season a lot better than I did initially. (I’m including both halves, which were split as two mini-seasons when aired.) From Walt, Jesse and Mike’s tumultuous business arrangement, to the downward spiral once Hank finds out, the plotting is air-tight, and everywhere…
The Nazis weren’t meant to be a “match” for Walter, and weren’t really his antagonists in the final season. The Nazis were the consequences of his choices. They are the end result of what he built. The only match for Walter in the final season is himself.
I’m a really big apologist for Halt, but I think you almost need to look at it as two separate shows. Think of Season 1 as some weird early 80s period piece about making a computer in Texas (which I found kind of interesting in its own right) and then think of everything else as the real story, which is computer…
Came here to post just that! I love how every season seemed to use a framing device where each episode would begin with a flash of something that happens at the end of the season before returning to the narrative, so the final season I think began with Walter in the Denny’s coming back to Albuquerque. We get to see…
That and Halt and Catch Fire. Some of the final season episodes hit me deeper than any TV show ever has before.
Breaking Bad. I know there were no last-minute curveballs, but it ended the way it had to, the way we knew it would from the beginning.
Mad Men. I didn’t think they would but damn they stuck the landing. The scene with Don hugging the crying gentleman during the group confessional is so fucking powerful and right. I’d also add Peggy and Stan made me super happy to boot.
I loved Steve, but I think I love drugged-up Steve even more.
