Fair. Funnily enough I was just re-watching the trailer a minute ago, and that same thought popped into my head; I guess years of Frasier and Lilith controlling his life finally caught up to him/them and he decided enough was enough.

Why do we all rebel against our parents. He went to college, smoked some weed, hooked up with a cute person whos politics and values are the polar opposite of how you were raised.  

“Da! , the nuclear wessel in first act MUST be used in third!”

“Laverne & Empty Space where Shirley Was”

Aliens had its automated machine gun in the middle of its run, which is even better! And controlled by a Grid Compass laptop (an actual piece of tech from the mid-1980s that looked, and still looks, pretty futuristic in a grim functional way so perfect for the setting).

Justice for the Angry Amish Chicken Plucker! Brazos!

Pavel. His name was Pavel.

The twins were one of my least favorite plot points, and the fact that they got taken out in a way that didn’t even affect Walt was a) funny, and b) annoying that we had to deal with their story.

Explains a lot about Chuck...

I spent the last 5 minutes trying to figure out an Amish Roadkill joke here before I remembered that like *maybe* a handful of 90s ECW fans will even get the fucking thing.

I would say lucky and clever. The chemistry obviously was the key to his “success” but a lot of times he’d come out on top/survive just because he was smart.

To be clear, I am not one of those people. By about midway, Walt is a villain, pure and simple. I’m just talking more about leveraging strengths rather than kind of action-movie-ing his way into a slightly redemptive end. Honestly, I prefer Better Call Saul as a better structured show, regardless.

Ehhhh... I kinda like that it underlines how straight-up LUCKY Walt got so often. No, it’s not ingenious. But then neither is Walt, honestly. I loved the show but there is a weird sort of anti-hero worship it engendered in some fans.

And dedicated the remainder of his life to the law, even if it was mostly corporate stuff.

Lenny was so traumatized he changed his name to Chuck.

Squiggy finally had enough.

Laverne and Shirley ended that way too. People just don’t talk about it much. 

I feel like some Russian dude name Anton,  can’t remember his last name, had something to say about guns in plays that Gilliam should have considered ahead of time 

The better ending would’ve been Walt, in his Y-fronts, cammed- and oiled-up like Arnie in Commando, hosing down Meth Damon’s gang and tossing off one-liners.

For me, it went from very enjoyable to modern classic with Tyler’s Bullshit.
