Maybe I’m weird, but I never really stopped “liking” Walt. Obviously he’s doing evil things, but he’s written in such a way that you can empathize and feel his humanity.
He starts out as a good guy doing bad things, evolves into A bad guy and then (spoilers) when he checkmates Gus, he becomes THE bad guy. Jesse, Walt Jr, Hank and Mike become the protagonists we care about, and Walt is *their* problem. He crosses a lot of lines and at some point a lot of people just couldn't root for him anymore, and were more concerned with the fate of the other characters. Letting Jane die was pretty brutal. Drugging the kid to manipulate Jesse was some truly diabolical gaslighting of a character everyone loved as much or more. But wiping out the legacy gang in prison all at once - that was his Michael-is-now-The-Godfather moment. In S5 he's basically the villain. He gets a soft redemption by taking accountability to Skyler, manipulating his money to Walt Jr, saving Jesse, taking care of Badger and Skinny Pete for their troubles, and then *dying*
Many -- probably most -- well-written fictional protagonists are compelling because the audience can see themselves in the character and/or fantasize about becoming the character. Walt is a great example. When I'm having a really bad month, I can privately think, "Nah man, if I REALLY wanted to, I could become a terrifying criminal mastermind and fuck you ALL up!" Shows like BrBa are great escapism that way.
Let me start off by saying I think Walt is a bad person, that being said, having been a drug addict for over a decade, Jesse and Jane probably would of both been dead within weeks if they had a half a million dollars.. And Jesse is the one who got Jane back on drugs, not Walt. He could of saved her life, but she also knew way too much about him and was already threatening to blackmail him, shit he might of saved Jesse's life by letting her die.. There's no way I'm blaming Walt for the plane crash though. He didn't send a grieving man to work in a very tense environment too early
I apologize for not interacting with the topic itself, but it is a pet peeve and I feel compelled. "Could have" or "Could've" is what you mean. Quick short hand that saves keystrokes is "Coulda"
Exactly. Even as they were discussing redoing their lives, they immediately went straight back to the drugs. Give two addicts money and it would have been blown within weeks. Not to mention the potential of something worse.
George was talking about men being taught to push down their feelings, which is very true, but what Skyler is going through very much echoes what women been taught and that is "keep your family together at any cost, often to your own peril". And her character struggles with this and I think that's where the hate towards her comes from. I was so disgusted with people hating Anna Gunn the Skyler actress. I can understand being swept with Walter as a character, it's a bad take but whatever. But hating the actress is both evil AND stupid.
I honestly can't ever understand what leads a moron to insult actors for characters they play. Not even like "I hated that character so much, you're so good at acting it". Who tf does that
I watched this show as it aired on cable TV every week from the beginning and I would become way frustrated at people who thought Skyler was "a bitch" for being the most rational character of the whole show for someone in her position not asking for any of this. She was, indeed, actually protecting the family and her children while protecting herself. People suck sometimes because they think Walter is this awesome badass way before they have to have it spoon-fed that it's so not that way lol.
Of all involved, Walt is the least to blame for the plane crash. #1-John De Lancie's character is to blame b/c he was literally the one that caused the crash. #2-Jane chose to do heroine instead of staying clean or going to rehab with her dad when he asked. #3-Jessie got Jane back into drugs and didn't listen to Walt when he tried to get him help. #4-Walt's only action was INACTION specifically as a result of wanting Jessie to live. Everyone else actively caused the crash. People should be accountable. Also, Skyler is the worst. Everyone should hate Skyler more than everyone else in this series.
Also, everything that happened to Hank and everything that happened to Jessie (through these episodes) was entirely on them and them alone. Hank was no saint. He was a bully, kinda racist, and couldn't control his emotions. Jessie blames Walt when he was complicit in everything from the start and the worst things that happened to him was due to not listening to Walt. And when he told Jessie the meth was just as good as his, was the truth.
The thing about cutting the crust off of sandwiches is something Walt started doing after he killed Crazy 8. There are a number of examples throughout the show of Walt picking up traits from people he's killed. This show makes everyone wish Pollos Hermanos were real so they could go there. "One taste, and you'll know!" And also a chain of coffee shops using Gale's setup.
Yeah, I don’t get it either. Jesse is a piece of shit throughout the whole series. He blames everyone else for his actions never once taking accountability. He does so many shitty things throughout the series. Hell, at one point he tries to have his boys sell meth to recovering addicts. An absolute scum bag move in my books. I think the reason people give him a pass though is because he is SO manipulated by Walt. But still, in my eyes he is a pretty awful person who is mostly the cause for everything that goes wrong. Gus had it right. Walt should have removed Jesse from the equation in the beginning as he was nothing but a liability But deep down, Walt has too much affection and loyalty to Jesse. Even if he doesn’t always want to admit it
Lol yes.. It’s like they forget who Jesse was even before a Walt lol. The Plane crash is another amazing example of the hypocrisy, it’s “indirectly” Jesses fault by their own logic haha. That girl was clean and doing great before Walt ahem I mean Jesse moved next door and the proceeded to get her to crash out on crystal and get back into H, while also getting Jesse on H.. The whole situation started with here not being able to say “No”. & With that you can also say this was ALL “indirectly” Her own fault 😂
He doesn't get a pass despite doing bad things. People just understand that him and Walt are not the same person inherently. Jesse is simply a good guy incapable of gaslighting and has lines he won't cross. He just happened to stumble upon a life of crime. Walt on the other hand is inherently an egotistic, manipulative POS who's always been a bad person but just never had the opportunity to indulge in a life of crime until he got his diagnosis. Except harming his immediate family and possibly Jesse, Walt will just about do anything, even poison little kids. Jesse was forced to kill Gale and it got him messed up for the rest of his life. He witnessed Drew Sharp being killed and lost his bearings while Walt forgot about the death the very next day and moved on. Throughout the show, they depict Jesse slowly becoming good while Walt only gets more and more depraved. People are therfore more sympathetic to Jesse.
@@altafkalam2716 Jesse CHOSE a life of crime. He was a middle class kid, he had every oportunity to be a good person, instead he chose to make meth and ruin prople's lives. Then he got his sober girlfriend back into doing drugs causing her death just as much as Walter. Then he put his goons to try selling meth at a rehab, which could have worked and ruined many other lives of people who were struggling to get theirs back. Then he kept making meth just because until he decided to rat and got caught by Todd's family.
My friends wanted to watch breaking bad together, but I had to stop watching with them five episodes in because even on season one they couldn’t resist saying how much they hated Skyler every single time she was on screen and it was really pissing me off because, at least until her actions later, she has every right to be feeling the way she was portrayed from the start
Nah your friends were right. She's selfish, especially in the beginning of the show. Walt partially went down this path because of her constant need to dictate everything in his life for (presumably) their entire relationship, then when she finds out he has cancer she is a b1tch about his choice of whether or not to take therapy. She thinks only of herself and never even considers what it's like to be in his shoes, even when he flat out tells her how he feels. Even Hank and Marie agree with Walt at that point, and she still refuses to stop acting like a b1tch. It's not until he gives into her wishes that she "forgives" him. She manipulates him into trying to accept Elliot and Gretchen's charity as well, knowing how it makes him feel (and also knowing he doesn't even want to take the treatment to begin with and is only doing it to appease her and Walt Jr). Not to mention she generally thinks way too much along the lines of everything is either black or white in terms of morality, even though she herself has an affair (as a means for payback, even though, as far as she knows, everything Walt did he had done to take care of his family - not saying that's why as we all clearly know Walt's ego is also a primary motivating factor - she doesn't know that at that point) and then she goes all in with the m3th business when it suits her, and was helping Ted launder money even before she knew about Walt.
Skylar doing Ted, I don't think it's cheating. She's been trying to tell Walter the relationship is over, and he's not allowing the divorce forcing her to be in the marriage still. So her act, to me, is her getting some control of her situation and also telling him it's over.
What binge watchers really don't get is that when you watch a series as it airs you have one week between episodes and at least a year between seasons. Resentment and frustration towards characters has lots of time to build up. Someone who watches a whole season in a few hours will never experience or understand that feeling.
It’s just hilarious and frustrating to me when people feel sorry for Jesse, and see him as a “good guy”, while completely ignoring he’s been manufacturing and selling drugs since well before Walt. Walt, whose character is evolving into a terrible, despicable being, somehow makes people forget that Jesse has always been a POS.
i can't see that iconic pizza scene without thinking about the blooper where Skyler slams the door but then pops it open to grab the dipping sticks and closes it again, so goddamn funny
13:09 Bryan Cranston actually volunteered to be pepper sprayed for this scene for it to look authentic. My guess is he regretted it afterwards though. 😅 53:23 Walter is cutting the crusts off the sandwich is a homage to the second episode where he empathizes with crazy 8. I think it shows Walter with a guilty conscience.
I'm catching up on your Breaking Bad videos, that show is so special, I could watch it a thousand times.. Crazy that the spin-off Better Call Saul was just as good, even better for some people, a true genius talent from all the people involved!
When i was in college 2007 this show started. I used to watch it with a group of friends every week. And i think we got to the tuco saga before i never saw or talked to those people again. But ill never forget those days. 15 years later i still wonder what soup, hopper, chris, the clapper, and don is up to.
Gus is all about respect and loyalty. He has no beef with Hank but had to get the brothers off of Walter. I think the warning was respect for Hank and balancing things out.
10:56 I heard that the truck explosion happened way earlier than it was supposed to, but the actors being such professionals just kept in character. So good! 43:40 and yes, I know that club the went to. And I knew some of the dancers haha. And man, that Episode 7 shoot-out! My god, such good television!! Give it up to Hank!!
@@beautybysaranwrap I graduated from film school and do short films, there is a difference between editing multiple clips sound mixing, and VFX, versus sitting on your assess and watching tv, idiots like you are the reason why people with real talent can’t make it in the world you are giving money and support to lazy ass people who just sit there and react.
Love how the wooden chair Hector is sitting in when the twins were boys, had wheel style carvings on the sides... Almost a for-shadow of his wheelchair to come!
Flight control is a very hard job, and you think they would take every precaution very seriously. Now in days they hire based on the color of ones skin rather than if they are the most qualified, same for pilots.
47:00 FINALLY, we get to one of the main characters of the entire BB cinematic universe: The Super Ultra Mega Mega Lab. Decades in its making and at the cost of countless, countless lives, innocent and otherwise.
After the end of Ep. 7. you guys looked just like I did... and my feeling at that point was, if this is not the best crafted show I've ever watched, I don't know what that is. From that point on, I knew it would be really, really difficult for any other show to be better than Breaking Bad. And... the rest of the story did not disappoint. Not at all.
I do not agree that Walt is to blame for plane crash. It's on Jane's father. He came back to extremely responsible work before being ready. It's butterfly effect, but not Walt's fault. Walt's fault ends at Jane's death.
It's because viewers (if they're like me) gets caught up in walt's pov of the unfolding story when watching the series so they can be hostile with the characters who are against walt/jesse. On rewatch tho, i was thinking "was i blind this whole time??"
George's comment observations about good chicken 0:36 has just caused me to order chicken for lunch through food delivery. Once it gets here, I'll finish the video.
I'm confused by this insane delusion of Walt being so responsible indirectly for the plane and jessie gf. Hell, it's more Jessie fault that Walters if you are going about that way.
There's a Mexican restaurant in my town a cop told my sister that was a front for the cartel. I was wandering why the food was so good, came in big portions, but stayed cheap.
Bob Odenkirk came to London last year for a book signing and I rocked up with my wife and we got to talk to him 121 for a few minutes. He is an awesome guy.
Its weird and funny how much you guys hate, Marie, but as a collective, we hate Skylar so much more, and you're like trying to hear out different perspectives and not hate on Skylar. Hope you guys see the light soon enough
Man, it feels so weird to see the cousins introduced and killed off in the same video. I always felt they were a part of the show for much longer than 7 episodes! (Yes, I know what happens next, but still. Close enough.)
With the atm, i have worked on that model, they all have a place for a camera but i have never seen one that actually has them. They have a 3g modem in them for communication and i doubt the pc inside would be capable of operating the camera so its probably a seperate module also dont remember seeing anythi g in the cofigs for a camera. Also, that is an inside atm, not in the least bit weather proof, also would be super easy to steal as its not made for sitting out in the open like that.
@@yt45204 I actually mis-remember and was getting that ATM confused with a later model, the one in that scene is looks like a triton RL9700 from '01 or maybe a later RL2000 for '08, none of them had a camera slot, I was thinking of the later RL 51xx series which sometimes had a top section that had a hole for a camera.
1:03:17 This would have been more messed up than what happened later - the two killers show up now in the parking lot and try to kill hank but she gets in the way and dies
29:00 first time I watched this, I was working on an original story much like Game Of Thrones, very high fantasy, so I saw high fantasy tints on everything I watched. in my head canon the twins WERE indeed "the summoned demons"
I wouldn't say Jane and all those deaths are just on Walts hands. Walt didn't save her after she threatened him. Jesse is the one who got her who hooked back on drugs when he knew she was in recovery. A lot of it is Jesse's hands, too
27:28 "Hey I have that exact same shirt... which means I'm wearing something that's, like, a decade out of date." I've worn some of my shirts since the late eighties, George... Kids these days, with their fast fashion! Bah! Humbug!!
Breaking bad is unique in that you can’t stop watching yet you don’t really root for anyone. If you start rooting for someone, that’s a sign they’re about to do something stupid.
16:49 Never been randomly called out for apparently having "a poolboy name" by someone watching Breaking Bad before. On the other hand, those words have probably never appeared in that order before. So, my feelings are... mixed.
It's great seeing the reaction: "No they're not going to kill Hank!". I remember a few episodes back in season 1 how basically people thought he was just a douche.
LOL its funny cause they didnt like Hank earlier in the show... But now so sad to see Hank might face danger. LOL! Hank really does grow on you.... He is kind of so honest and transparent. Even when he tries to lie, its obvious what he is trying to do. He is somehow loveable in weird way...
Fans of the Pizza on the Roof: The Breaking Bad Home is still in New Mexico somewhere, and the current owners of the home would greatly appreciate it if no one drove by to throw pizza on their roof. Skyler: If his wife were to open her mouth at that point in time its a wild guess what happens next. Absolutely NOTHING is prepared. Who knows if she has a smoking gun piece of evidence or information that she can immediately turn over, I doubt it. She also doesn't yet know how deep into this mess that she is in, she could find herself in jail and prison just as easily. Furthermore she now endangers her life with the cartel who do not give 2nd chances to rats. She is better off doing what she did and she should start planning for her future.

Exactly. Even as they were discussing redoing their lives, they immediately went straight back to the drugs. Give two addicts money and it would have been blown within weeks. Not to mention the potential of something worse.
@@Holy_WafflesI get it. It doesn't take any extra effort to spell it correctly
George was talking about men being taught to push down their feelings, which is very true, but what Skyler is going through very much echoes what women been taught and that is "keep your family together at any cost, often to your own peril". And her character struggles with this and I think that's where the hate towards her comes from. I was so disgusted with people hating Anna Gunn the Skyler actress. I can understand being swept with Walter as a character, it's a bad take but whatever. But hating the actress is both evil AND stupid.
People are insane.
I honestly can't ever understand what leads a moron to insult actors for characters they play. Not even like "I hated that character so much, you're so good at acting it". Who tf does that
Season 3 is a masterpiece.. it starts "slow" and then hits you, then "slows down" again and then really hits you..
"One Minute" is one of the top episodes so far. And it is followed by a train of top episodes.
I watched this show as it aired on cable TV every week from the beginning and I would become way frustrated at people who thought Skyler was "a bitch" for being the most rational character of the whole show for someone in her position not asking for any of this. She was, indeed, actually protecting the family and her children while protecting herself. People suck sometimes because they think Walter is this awesome badass way before they have to have it spoon-fed that it's so not that way lol.
Of all involved, Walt is the least to blame for the plane crash. #1-John De Lancie's character is to blame b/c he was literally the one that caused the crash. #2-Jane chose to do heroine instead of staying clean or going to rehab with her dad when he asked. #3-Jessie got Jane back into drugs and didn't listen to Walt when he tried to get him help. #4-Walt's only action was INACTION specifically as a result of wanting Jessie to live. Everyone else actively caused the crash. People should be accountable. Also, Skyler is the worst. Everyone should hate Skyler more than everyone else in this series.
@@CallOfCutie69 I am the danger.
Also, everything that happened to Hank and everything that happened to Jessie (through these episodes) was entirely on them and them alone. Hank was no saint. He was a bully, kinda racist, and couldn't control his emotions. Jessie blames Walt when he was complicit in everything from the start and the worst things that happened to him was due to not listening to Walt. And when he told Jessie the meth was just as good as his, was the truth.
your last opinion shows how delusional the rest of the comment is
The thing about cutting the crust off of sandwiches is something Walt started doing after he killed Crazy 8. There are a number of examples throughout the show of Walt picking up traits from people he's killed.
This show makes everyone wish Pollos Hermanos were real so they could go there. "One taste, and you'll know!" And also a chain of coffee shops using Gale's setup.
2:30 If Jane didn't blackmail him hours before... Walter would have probably saved her.
100%
I never understand why Jesse always gets a pass for the bad things he does. Walt is always 100% guilty (which he is) but Jesse is a victim somehow.
Yeah, I don’t get it either. Jesse is a piece of shit throughout the whole series. He blames everyone else for his actions never once taking accountability. He does so many shitty things throughout the series. Hell, at one point he tries to have his boys sell meth to recovering addicts. An absolute scum bag move in my books.
I think the reason people give him a pass though is because he is SO manipulated by Walt.
But still, in my eyes he is a pretty awful person who is mostly the cause for everything that goes wrong. Gus had it right. Walt should have removed Jesse from the equation in the beginning as he was nothing but a liability
But deep down, Walt has too much affection and loyalty to Jesse. Even if he doesn’t always want to admit it
Lol yes.. It’s like they forget who Jesse was even before a Walt lol. The Plane crash is another amazing example of the hypocrisy, it’s “indirectly” Jesses fault by their own logic haha. That girl was clean and doing great before Walt ahem I mean Jesse moved next door and the proceeded to get her to crash out on crystal and get back into H, while also getting Jesse on H.. The whole situation started with here not being able to say “No”. & With that you can also say this was ALL “indirectly” Her own fault 😂
He doesn't get a pass despite doing bad things. People just understand that him and Walt are not the same person inherently.
Jesse is simply a good guy incapable of gaslighting and has lines he won't cross. He just happened to stumble upon a life of crime.
Walt on the other hand is inherently an egotistic, manipulative POS who's always been a bad person but just never had the opportunity to indulge in a life of crime until he got his diagnosis. Except harming his immediate family and possibly Jesse, Walt will just about do anything, even poison little kids.
Jesse was forced to kill Gale and it got him messed up for the rest of his life. He witnessed Drew Sharp being killed and lost his bearings while Walt forgot about the death the very next day and moved on.
Throughout the show, they depict Jesse slowly becoming good while Walt only gets more and more depraved.
People are therfore more sympathetic to Jesse.
@@altafkalam2716 Jesse CHOSE a life of crime. He was a middle class kid, he had every oportunity to be a good person, instead he chose to make meth and ruin prople's lives.
Then he got his sober girlfriend back into doing drugs causing her death just as much as Walter. Then he put his goons to try selling meth at a rehab, which could have worked and ruined many other lives of people who were struggling to get theirs back. Then he kept making meth just because until he decided to rat and got caught by Todd's family.
For a very different Bob Odenkirk, try:
"Nobody" (2021)
My friends wanted to watch breaking bad together, but I had to stop watching with them five episodes in because even on season one they couldn’t resist saying how much they hated Skyler every single time she was on screen and it was really pissing me off because, at least until her actions later, she has every right to be feeling the way she was portrayed from the start
Nah your friends were right. She's selfish, especially in the beginning of the show. Walt partially went down this path because of her constant need to dictate everything in his life for (presumably) their entire relationship, then when she finds out he has cancer she is a b1tch about his choice of whether or not to take therapy. She thinks only of herself and never even considers what it's like to be in his shoes, even when he flat out tells her how he feels. Even Hank and Marie agree with Walt at that point, and she still refuses to stop acting like a b1tch. It's not until he gives into her wishes that she "forgives" him. She manipulates him into trying to accept Elliot and Gretchen's charity as well, knowing how it makes him feel (and also knowing he doesn't even want to take the treatment to begin with and is only doing it to appease her and Walt Jr).
Not to mention she generally thinks way too much along the lines of everything is either black or white in terms of morality, even though she herself has an affair (as a means for payback, even though, as far as she knows, everything Walt did he had done to take care of his family - not saying that's why as we all clearly know Walt's ego is also a primary motivating factor - she doesn't know that at that point) and then she goes all in with the m3th business when it suits her, and was helping Ted launder money even before she knew about Walt.
Skylar doing Ted, I don't think it's cheating. She's been trying to tell Walter the relationship is over, and he's not allowing the divorce forcing her to be in the marriage still. So her act, to me, is her getting some control of her situation and also telling him it's over.
THEY WERE ON A BREAK!
@@meganega123it wasn't a break. Skyler told him to get out of their lives. That's not a "need time to figure stuff out". That means it's over
And then the most badass character ever shows up. Mike Ehrmantraut.
What binge watchers really don't get is that when you watch a series as it airs you have one week between episodes and at least a year between seasons. Resentment and frustration towards characters has lots of time to build up. Someone who watches a whole season in a few hours will never experience or understand that feeling.
It’s just hilarious and frustrating to me when people feel sorry for Jesse, and see him as a “good guy”, while completely ignoring he’s been manufacturing and selling drugs since well before Walt. Walt, whose character is evolving into a terrible, despicable being, somehow makes people forget that Jesse has always been a POS.
i can't see that iconic pizza scene without thinking about the blooper where Skyler slams the door but then pops it open to grab the dipping sticks and closes it again, so goddamn funny
Fun fact: The girl in the bleachers @5:04 is Taylor Dearden, Bryan Cranston's real life daughter.
13:09 Bryan Cranston actually volunteered to be pepper sprayed for this scene for it to look authentic. My guess is he regretted it afterwards though. 😅
53:23 Walter is cutting the crusts off the sandwich is a homage to the second episode where he empathizes with crazy 8. I think it shows Walter with a guilty conscience.
YESS glad to have y’all back in the BB universe! 🥳
The Goat gets the car, George
Is it just me or is George looking in really good shape?
I agree. I've gone back and watched some older videos of theirs and thought to myself he looks so much more fit and even healthier complexion.
I'm catching up on your Breaking Bad videos, that show is so special, I could watch it a thousand times.. Crazy that the spin-off Better Call Saul was just as good, even better for some people, a true genius talent from all the people involved!
When i was in college 2007 this show started. I used to watch it with a group of friends every week. And i think we got to the tuco saga before i never saw or talked to those people again. But ill never forget those days. 15 years later i still wonder what soup, hopper, chris, the clapper, and don is up to.
2:35 Bryan Cranston's real life wife... 5:04 Bryan Cranston's real life daughter
Gus is all about respect and loyalty. He has no beef with Hank but had to get the brothers off of Walter. I think the warning was respect for Hank and balancing things out.
Gus was hoping for a gunfight, with no survivors and a monopoly on Meth in New Mexico
This is such a good review, and the editing is perfect.
10:56 I heard that the truck explosion happened way earlier than it was supposed to, but the actors being such professionals just kept in character. So good!
43:40 and yes, I know that club the went to. And I knew some of the dancers haha.
And man, that Episode 7 shoot-out! My god, such good television!! Give it up to Hank!!
Y’all are AMAZINGGGGG for this!! THANK YOU
yes there so amazing for sitting down and watching tv
@@dertffrtg1547 it takes time to edit all of this….have some respect
@@beautybysaranwrap I graduated from film school and do short films, there is a difference between editing multiple clips sound mixing, and VFX, versus sitting on your assess and watching tv, idiots like you are the reason why people with real talent can’t make it in the world you are giving money and support to lazy ass people who just sit there and react.
Love how the wooden chair Hector is sitting in when the twins were boys, had wheel style carvings on the sides... Almost a for-shadow of his wheelchair to come!
Flight control is a very hard job, and you think they would take every precaution very seriously. Now in days they hire based on the color of ones skin rather than if they are the most qualified, same for pilots.
Saul Goodman is really my favourite character, every scene with him is hilarious 😂
insane timing, just sat down with my lunch
I had already eaten, now I'm eating again
That's the actor who played Q on TNG!!
The person who played Q is named John DeLancie and his character in this show was from last season, Donald Margolis, the dad of Jane.
47:00 FINALLY, we get to one of the main characters of the entire BB cinematic universe:
The Super Ultra Mega Mega Lab. Decades in its making and at the cost of countless, countless lives, innocent and otherwise.
You guys should definitely react to Bob Odenkirk in "Nobody" if you have not seen it. 👍💯
It wasn't the shrine house. You can tell from the lack of people and also shrine.
Simone's shirt is one of my favorite songs.
Pretty sure the DEA is paying for Jesse's hospital stay.
Walt pulled a Batman "Im not kill you... but im not gonna save u"
After the end of Ep. 7. you guys looked just like I did... and my feeling at that point was, if this is not the best crafted show I've ever watched, I don't know what that is. From that point on, I knew it would be really, really difficult for any other show to be better than Breaking Bad. And... the rest of the story did not disappoint. Not at all.
I do not agree that Walt is to blame for plane crash. It's on Jane's father. He came back to extremely responsible work before being ready. It's butterfly effect, but not Walt's fault. Walt's fault ends at Jane's death.
1:53 not George being the only person I’ve ever seen NOT confused by this, including myself 😂
It's because viewers (if they're like me) gets caught up in walt's pov of the unfolding story when watching the series so they can be hostile with the characters who are against walt/jesse.
On rewatch tho, i was thinking "was i blind this whole time??"
George's comment observations about good chicken 0:36 has just caused me to order chicken for lunch through food delivery. Once it gets here, I'll finish the video.
Definitely watch "better call saul" after this... it's amazing on its own, but also adds so much to the world this show lives in.
I'm confused by this insane delusion of Walt being so responsible indirectly for the plane and jessie gf. Hell, it's more Jessie fault that Walters if you are going about that way.
The tall mechanic working on the RV is Tom Kiesche. He is a wonderful actor I knew well when I was a working actor in L.A..
The principle is way hotter than any principle I've ever met. George, I'm with you on this!
Don't tell Tio Salamanca, but the meeting he had with Gus Fring is what American crime bosses call a "sit down".
There's a Mexican restaurant in my town a cop told my sister that was a front for the cartel. I was wandering why the food was so good, came in big portions, but stayed cheap.
Worth it
38:45 - "George, you're part of the problem." 🤣🤣🤣
Bob Odenkirk came to London last year for a book signing and I rocked up with my wife and we got to talk to him 121 for a few minutes. He is an awesome guy.
So great to get your BB reaction in full season form within 48hrs.
Its weird and funny how much you guys hate, Marie, but as a collective, we hate Skylar so much more, and you're like trying to hear out different perspectives and not hate on Skylar. Hope you guys see the light soon enough
Man, it feels so weird to see the cousins introduced and killed off in the same video. I always felt they were a part of the show for much longer than 7 episodes!
(Yes, I know what happens next, but still. Close enough.)
I love these two
"I wonder how bad a stake out vehicle smells?"
That's how you can spot one. It's the one with the most air fresheners on the mirror.
They are Tuco's cousins. He mentioned them in season 2. Hector is their Dad and Tuco's uncle (Tio). How did you forget?
This is your guys best work yet. Masterpiece
With the atm, i have worked on that model, they all have a place for a camera but i have never seen one that actually has them. They have a 3g modem in them for communication and i doubt the pc inside would be capable of operating the camera so its probably a seperate module also dont remember seeing anythi g in the cofigs for a camera. Also, that is an inside atm, not in the least bit weather proof, also would be super easy to steal as its not made for sitting out in the open like that.
Maybe a self contained camera module with a memory card?
@@yt45204 I actually mis-remember and was getting that ATM confused with a later model, the one in that scene is looks like a triton RL9700 from '01 or maybe a later RL2000 for '08, none of them had a camera slot, I was thinking of the later RL 51xx series which sometimes had a top section that had a hole for a camera.
One Minute is easily one of the best episodes of TV ever!
11:06 bro you DO NOT know who the real danger is
1:03:17 This would have been more messed up than what happened later - the two killers show up now in the parking lot and try to kill hank but she gets in the way and dies
Y'all might remember the bell guy tio as ace Ventura's landlord, Mr. Shikadance.
29:00
first time I watched this, I was working on an original story much like Game Of Thrones, very high fantasy, so I saw high fantasy tints on everything I watched.
in my head canon the twins WERE indeed "the summoned demons"
I wouldn't say Jane and all those deaths are just on Walts hands. Walt didn't save her after she threatened him. Jesse is the one who got her who hooked back on drugs when he knew she was in recovery. A lot of it is Jesse's hands, too
27:28 "Hey I have that exact same shirt... which means I'm wearing something that's, like, a decade out of date."
I've worn some of my shirts since the late eighties, George... Kids these days, with their fast fashion! Bah! Humbug!!
Breaking bad is unique in that you can’t stop watching yet you don’t really root for anyone. If you start rooting for someone, that’s a sign they’re about to do something stupid.
Man, Vince Gilligan and friends sure know how to tell a story.
I think Bryan Cranston writes the underwear scenes into his contract. He was in his undies as much if not more on Malcolm in the Middle.
16:49 Never been randomly called out for apparently having "a poolboy name" by someone watching Breaking Bad before. On the other hand, those words have probably never appeared in that order before. So, my feelings are... mixed.
It's great seeing the reaction: "No they're not going to kill Hank!". I remember a few episodes back in season 1 how basically people thought he was just a douche.
LOL its funny cause they didnt like Hank earlier in the show... But now so sad to see Hank might face danger. LOL! Hank really does grow on you.... He is kind of so honest and transparent. Even when he tries to lie, its obvious what he is trying to do. He is somehow loveable in weird way...
Hank is unironically the best person in the show.
Fans of the Pizza on the Roof: The Breaking Bad Home is still in New Mexico somewhere, and the current owners of the home would greatly appreciate it if no one drove by to throw pizza on their roof.
Skyler: If his wife were to open her mouth at that point in time its a wild guess what happens next. Absolutely NOTHING is prepared. Who knows if she has a smoking gun piece of evidence or information that she can immediately turn over, I doubt it. She also doesn't yet know how deep into this mess that she is in, she could find herself in jail and prison just as easily. Furthermore she now endangers her life with the cartel who do not give 2nd chances to rats. She is better off doing what she did and she should start planning for her future.
I've always loved Walter White's nickname of "Walter Whities". 😂
Gus called Hank and warned him...As a way to rid himself of more Salamanca's. They wanted to kill Hank as retribution for him killing Tuco.
