Now I know you're not a writer on Breaking Bad. BB hires smart writers.

Oh, and where's Mike? I'm assuming he's still alive and will be back next season.

But according to you, not good ones.

And what happens when the guys higher up than Gus at Madrigal Electromotive hear about what happened?

Walt then realizes that he won the battle, not the war.

Gilligan answers some questions regarding where the series goes from here and provides some confirmation on what we've just seen.

A pity Gus had to die at the hands of Hector and Walt. What a great character.
I suspected the same as you, but when he had his neighbor go check his house I knew Walk was responsible for poisoning Brock.

Yeah, that was a definite clue. Another example of him putting somebody else's life on the line to protect his own.

I think the ending may have been more effective for those that didn't suspect Walt of such cruelness, though. Not believing that would have added to the suspense a bit.

Hooking the bomb up to Hector's bell was pure genious.

Did anyone else think for a second that Walt was going to kill Jesse while he was handcuffed?

It sucks Gus is gone, but thankfully this means we have Saul in the picture for the rest of the series.

But all in all, the show’s consistently high level of quality continued into a fourth year, which is no small accomplishment, and the plotlines changed both the characters and the series’ tone in fascinating ways, tightening the screws on all the major characters and foregrounding the film noir/black comedy influence that was always present. “Breaking Bad” is a great TV series, a worthy heir to the dark dramas that preceded and influenced it. No matter how fast series creator Vince Gilligan and company turn around Season 5, the wait will still seem endless.

I love this show, but the writing alone on The Wire makes Breaking Bad look like Sesame Street.

How can you love a show that you think has shitty writing?

I really enjoyed The Wire, but it seems there are a lot of people for which it is now the only really good show ever produced, and we shall never again see it's equal. Sorry, but it wasn't quite that awesome.

If you guys want to see a truly great, classic T.V. show, I would like to recommend going back in the archives and watching "Get a Life". The writing of that show makes The Wire look like Sesame Street.

Dr. Gigglepants 10-10-2011 12:11 PM
I don't think BB has shitty writing, just that The Wire has superb writing. The dialogue in The Wire between all the drug dealers feels so authentic that it seems like they're speaking a different language.

I agree on Get a Life.
