Cant believe you feel this way Dane? This show is quality all the way through. It does take a few "leaps of faith" like every TV show does, ill admit (mainly with the Walt/Hank stuff. Hank would have sniffed him out by now.) But damn......just always has me on the edge of my seat. Oddly, im kinda sad to see Gus go. Giancarlo Esposito was incredible in that role.
I don't feel any empathy or sympathy for any of the characters. I don't particularly *like* any of the characters, although Hank isn't unlikeable.

Unlike shows such as Homeland, Sopranos and Mad Men, shows that have featured unlikeable characters that are deep and interesting, thus become likeable, I just don't find myself caring about Walt, Skyler, Marie or Jessie. Gustavo Fring is definitely the most interesting character with the best back story, but I knew he'd meet his fate before Walt or Jessie (and haven't seen it onscreen yet).

It's not that the show is bad, per se (even though Season One was unwatchable for me and Season Two wasn't much better until about episode 8/9) it's just all so...predictable. At least it is, to me.
