Breaking Bad on AMC (1 Viewer)

One ridiculous leap of faith each of the past two weeks:

- Last week, Walt conveniently sees Gretchen and Elliott on TV talking about him.

- This week, Jack feels compelled to produce Jesse from the dungeon to prove some point before killing Walt.

I'll allow it, but I don't feel good about it.

Thanks for the memories.
Word is bond, yo.

 
Great ending. I thought he was about to cook one final batch before he died. I don't think you can ask for more from a finale.

 
Thought Walt was going to blow up the lab, but overall, it was quite a satisfying ending. Of course it was a bit predictable in hindsight, but for this episode, the beauty was in the execution.

 
I love how they have those random moments of levity in the middle of the most dramatic scenes like with Todd's ringtone.

I think the Jesse subplot was irrelevant. Walt was there to kill Nazis. He realized Jesse was not with them, so he tackled him to take him out of the line of fire. If they left him in his hole, he would have needed some excuse to get low, but the end result for the Nazis is the same. No telling if he would let Jesse escape though...

 
I was a little disappointed. Too neat. Everything just wrapped up to perfectly. Throughout the show it was always expect the unexpected, i could have written this.

Oh please. No one ever likes finales. Probably because we are mad the show is over. But after some if the stinkers over the years, you guys think this one is TOO neat? Just shows you can't please everyone.
You really think Breaking Bad should have a happy ending where all loose ends are tied up and its pretty much what everyone wanted to see? If you could ask people what they wanted in terms of who lived and died, this would be it. Wasn't awful don't get me wrong, i just wish they had gone out on a little more of a limb and everything wasn't neat and tidy

Yeah he would have probably found Jesse. That wasn't the point. It would have been a bit in satisfying for Walt to walk into the room and immediately get shot by Jack despite the fact that this was a great possibility when Walt decided to enter into the lions den.

I wouldn't call it a happy ending. Unless maybe you wanted a mob squad to kill Walts kids.

It was interesting that the finale ended up being one of the few times that much of the audience actually predicted correctly (Ricin for Lydia, M60 to mow down the Nazi's).

From that aspect, I guess some could be disappointed that nothing shocking really happened in the finale. Plus, it wasn't as destructive and deadly as many thought it'd be.

I thought it was pretty much perfect though. No need for any big surprises there. Just great execution.

Of course it was. Walt was dying anyways, him living or dying didn't really matter. Everyone wanted Lydia and the Nazis to get it, they did. Everyone wanted Jesse to ride off into the sunset, he did. Walts family gets the money. Skler stays out of jail. Whats left?

Puts sopranos as a series, final season, and finale to shame.

The shows went for 2 different things. BB didn't go for the same stuff Sapranos did. Both were awesome.
