I think post defines the "Lalalalala I can't hear you lalalala" reaction of people who simply can't handle criticism of something they like. I never really understood this kind of reaction. I am always the first one to criticize something I love... because if I love it, I certainly should notice any flaws first and care enough to voice opinion so that maybe it would change.

At the beginning of the series, the pacing was mostly slow and the actions of characters strained believability most of the times.. but at least it had direction. Once Gus became involved on a regular basis, it just seems like they have nowhere else to go.

Oh man my new favorite show next to dexter, I just got caught up and just finished watching the end of season 3.. wow what a cliffhanger. I'm a bit late to the party but man oh man what a great show. I had the luxury of not having to wait a week between episodes but now that I'm almost caught up I am kind of glad. This show is like meth, so addictive can't stop watching, gotta put on the next episode. I've been sort of putting off real life lol.
 
After watching the premiere again I can't help but think Jesse will play a major role in this season, perhaps be a hero to Walt instead of it always being the other way around. Just the way he looked after seeing what Gus did, it's like something clicked and he could understand what's going on. He even tries to cryptically explain it to Walt at the Denny's, either way he keeps fucking things up for the both of them so something has to give.
 
not a bad ep last night.

really want to see what they do with next ep based off the preview, as i figured that would happen

I hope so. He was always very skiddish and such regarding violence, but he was quite collected at the diner so I think he's finally manning up to the life he's in. Should prove to be a lot more useful now rather than just Walt's reason for getting into the business. Jesse hasn't been that useful for a good chunk of the show's life so far.
 
Yawn. Another season building characters? Ugh. I think I can do 2 more eps like that, after which I don't know if I can do this show anymore.
 
Enjoyed the scene where Walt was walking to Gus's house and got the call from Gus saying "walt, go home" - him and jesse really are screwed right now. Gus is no dumbass like tuco.
 
good episode, jesse's done - i'm guessing suicide. he's got enough left to do the cooking, but that's it. i still have no idea where hank's mineral thing is going though.

i thought it was mike on the phone not gus

personally i dont think jesse will off himself

and I also am curious as to Hanks obsession with rocks, it seems really odd and he is a super dick to his wife

It was definitely Gus.

Hank is obsessing over blue "minerals" so I guess he is stupidly trying to link the mineral colors to the blue meth. Maybe it will lead somewhere but I think it's just a way to show is obsession with the blue meth. I use to like Hank's character but he is just a depressing whiny bitch now.
 
Buddy raised the point that he is researching the color buy why wouldent he just use Google and read about what caused what color

lmao! d(^_^)z

I think Jesse's switch has been flipped so to speak. It's painfully obvious something is going to happen to him this season, I just can't put my finger on whether or not it will be a good thing. It just feels like he's gonna get himself killed. Especially since we watched walt standing over him and his g/f who were passed out and she ended up choking to death on her vomit. With Walt being the way he is, how can the guilt not overcome him to tell Jesse about it?
 
i doubt walt tells him seeing as he didnt tell him when he told him he met her dad at the bar after droping off the cash
 
I'm more intrigued by the Mike angle. I have a feeling he's going to turn[on Gus]... looks like he's dying anyway which would make him a lot like what Walter was with nothing to lose.

Harder to get a read on Jesse, though his interation with that girl does make him seem like he's come to grips with reality. He has the, "I'm already dead anyway so may as well" kind of attitude.

True, but with as many shows as I've watched, you can't really introduce a scene like that and never go back to it. Hopefully I'm wrong and this show bucks that trend.

I kinda got that feeling with Mike as well and I obviously believe that's what Walt was eluding to when he was talking to him.

That's also exactly the vibe I got from Jesse, but I'm really hopin he doesn't dive off the deep and end up screwing Walt.

That was brilliant. Walt always thinks he's the smartest guy in the room, but that was his wake-up call. Gus is a least as smart as he is.
