You're insane.
This episode was goddamn majestic. When Walt started talking about Jane's dad, I was just as anxious as when Hank had them trapped in the RV. This episode was more like a brilliant stage play than an episode of TV. Brilliant writing, brilliant acting, brilliant directing. So much happening without anything really happening. |

I have to watch the episode again tomorrow, well later today.
The lack of action compared to the Lost finale which I watched immediately before it made the episode seem to take forever, but I did like it the first time around. Admittedly, I was still processing Lost in my head though, so a rewatch is necessary. |

Something has told me all season long that the reasons that you like Breaking Bad are not always the same reasons that I like it.

I love BB for the outstanding acting and story. The sick humor is great, too. Probably my favorite part of BB is the internal conflict each character has. This episode had some of that, but it just seemed to fall below the normal standard. It seemed like a filler episode. Nothing was really added to the story, just rehashed. |

1. Jesse finally starts to realize how much of a shit life Walt is living, and he starts sympathizing with him for the first time. It used to be all about "ME" for Jesse, but that changed in this episode. 2. We learn that Walt knows Jesse took the Meth. Should set up some interesting episodes coming up. |

This could have easily been a half hour episode with no loss of story.

Opinion. I love being told I am wrong based on an opinion. 1. Jesse has always tried to help Walt out when he could. He already sympathized for him since his Aunt went through the same thing that Walt is going through. The one really interesting part of the episode was when Walt kept telling Jesse "I'm Sorry". 2. Walt probably already knew that Jesse took the Meth. Jesse was making up stupid excuses about the waste, and Walt was having internal conflict about it, hence the anger towards the fly. Guys, it is still by far the best show on TV for a long time. The episode just wasn't as good as the rest of the show has been. |

It's Bar None the best TV show on TV....but I hate how every episode is defended like it was meaningful....IMO the Fly dissappointed ME.... and I'm OK with that....we are winding down this season and I was thinking we would be moving forward and this episode seemed rather stagnant....did I HATE it?...NO. Was it odd and slow....yes. Looking forward to next week...as always.
