So somehow I missed Breaking Bad when it came on as I was a MadMen man then. But not now! I have caught the fever - and caught it bad! My wife and I have binge watched all five Breaking Bad seasons in just about the last month. It's uber-intense of course, but watching four hours a day of it some days was over the top. I started dreaming about Walter White - argh!! Heisenberg is coming back to Albuquerque as we all know. My guess is that the machine gun is for the Nazis, the Ricin is for Elliot and Gretchen, and Jesse somehow ends up getting free. He picks up Brock, hits the road, and raises him - finally getting to protect at least one child from the evil Walt. Walt/Heisenberg will go out in a blaze of glory. As Bryan Cranston said earlier this year - "It's not called Breaking Good, it's called Breaking Bad." This is now in my Top 3 shows of all time - along with Lost, and for you old-timers, St. Elsewhere.
So far absolutely very little has gone exactly as anyone expected. That in itself is pretty amazing. Will the last episode be the same? If so... then none of us are on to what is going to happen. Rest assured, I can't imagine a feel good ending. Maybe for Jesse, who really has gone thought the worst shitstorm, first Walt and his stuff, the police, tortured, watches is GF get shot, but at this point he has to be so mentally screwed up there is no walking off into the sunset a happy man for him. If anything he becomes breaking bad junior. I don't know what Walt is going to do, but I think it will be Epic. His 'it's not over until I *cough* *cough* *ack* *coucg* and Sal walks away shows how far he has fallen. He hasn't been in very much control lately, but I suspect for one last episode it will be complete Heisenberg.
I've been meaning to watch Sons of Anarchy and Boardwalk Empire for years now, think i'll just wait until they end and marathon them. Eastbound and Down is coming back soon, i guess i'll watch that. Might try that Avengers show too, but i'm really tired of superheroes.
Yeah, that's where i planned on watching SOA. I'd use HBO Go to watch the HBO shows, but unfortunately i subscribe through Direct TV, and they don't let you use HBO Go with it for some reason.
A lot of people like Sons of Anarchy and I've watched it up until the premiere this season but I think I'm done with it. Five minutes of bike chases or gunfights isn't worth 40 minutes of melodrama and increasingly ludicrous plot contrivances.
House of Cards is supposed to be really good as well but I haven't had the chance. I think you can get the whole thing on Netflix at the moment.
My problem is I can only be addicted to 3 shows at a time. Breaking Bad is over, so I found SOA to watch. I still have the Walking Dead and Tosh.O to fill my void!
Ha, I know what you're saying. Deadwood has been collecting dust for me for years and I just can't get around to it. Speaking of BB, I think Anna Gunn is in Deadwood as well.
Interesting article on the inspiration to bring Gretchen and Elliott back into the story. http://tv.yahoo.com/news/breaking-bad-made-dying-boy-wish-come-true-153505871.html
I have been baffled about how Walter is going to give money to his family. I think there could be some sort of sub-plot that has these two giving Marketshare to his family. http://breakingbad.wikia.com/wiki/Elliott_Schwartz Could it be possible that "GrayMatter" will be the saving grace and possible "legit income of massive proportions" to Walt's family?
House of Cards is fantastic. Kevin Spacy really is an amazing actor. If you have Netflix and haven't watched Luther... DO IT NOW. (Well, after Breaking Bad)
Yes and yes. Fantastic show. I must say, all 5 Emmy nominated dramas were exceptional (that I saw): Breaking Bad, Mad Men, House of Cards, Homeland, Boardwalk Empire.
Boardwalk Empire is fugging great, I love Mad Men too. I'm caught up on those, so lately I've been casually watching/binging on the Wire, which is also fugging great.
So I watched Boardwalk's 1st season when it first aired. Then I got worried it was going to be cancelled like many other shows I started to follow, so i stopped. It is tough to be on the road and it comes on HBO in my hotel room......I want to watch, but I am waiting for it to end, then start over. Same exact situation with Mad Men, but at least I got thru 2 seasons of that. It's hard to not hear about whats going on.....Like not hearing the score of a game when you are recording it at home.
