Nobody has mentioned how creepy Lydia's ringtone was on Todd's phone.
An extra little detail that showed how crazy Todd was. |

The automatic gun from the trunk exactly to where it needed to be was campy. Also, pure luck that they even brought Jesse into the room for saving. I wanted Walt to kill the Gray Matter folks just because. Guess that turned out ok w/the money. Having the 2 stooges shine their lights on them was brilliant. Still don't know why Walt killed Lydia. What did she do to deserve that? They had a good partnership that ended on a high note. Was she the ersatz woman killing for Skyler?

Well, he did have two copies of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, so there's that. Walter White was smart enough to make meth better than anyone else in the world, build the bomb that killed Gus, build a battery out in the desert, and build an explosive crystal that detonated when he threw it to the floor. But because he was able to rig a machine gun to autofire when he pushed a button, and because he put together a plan that he executed perfectly, "he was James Bond" and the episode seemed unrealistic to you. The "James Bond" ending was actually completely consistent with the character that Vince Gilligan has developed over the last 5 years. At the end of the day, it's still a television show. Did Vince Gilligan require you to suspend your disbelief just a little bit in order to enjoy the emotionally satisfying ending that he delivered? Probably. But I wouldn't have had it any other way. I much prefer an emotionally satisfying ending to an ambiguous ending that satisfies the nit-pickers who refuse to just sit back and enjoy the ride. I guess this just shows that no matter how brilliantly a series ends, somebody is going to complain about it. |

You sure seem to know a lot about cooking meth. Anything you want to tell us?

Loved the ending. I'll probably go back and re-watch the entire series soon.

I remember many times when I was watching Lost that I'd get disgusted and think that the writers were just making it up as they went along, and that they had no plan to ever explain what anything actually meant. With Breaking Bad, it sure seems like they had everything planned out from beginning to end before they ever shot Season One. |

People who consider this shit unbelievable or campy.....you do realize that if it were truly real....Walt would have been busted in the 2nd episode. Season over.

Regarding Lydia: Walt knew damn well that Lydia had no problem ordering hits on people who could identify her. It would have been a major surprise if Walt HADN'T taken care of her. |

One of my favorite scenes in the finale:
Jack: "If you pull that trigger, you'll never find ..." Walt: (Bang!) |

I have been hearing rumors that they may be doing a spin-off based on Saul Goodman's character...presumably chronicling his life as a "douchebag with a job." Has anyone else heard this? Any legitimacy to these rumors?
