On one side we have a thief, on the other side we have a drug kingpin, murdering, lunatic and his accomplice who is okay with letting her son find out about his father via news outlets and the like and you side with the latter just because you don't like the first's personality? interesting.

You seem to think that one person is right because they are "less bad" than the other. I want them all get whats coming to them. Hank is the only good person on the show.

I think there is a difference between stealing a spoon at an open house and murdering countless people while running a meth empire. I guess Marie should have been fined $500, but I doubt that would satisfy you in terms of getting what is coming to her.

There are therapists and social workers to gently handle the children of criminals. There's no defense for her making skylar tell junior other than she was an emotional mess.

I'm not saying anyone is "right". You just seem to be pointing out Marie needs what's coming to her... ummm, okay. She stole some things, so that's what? A few years in jail at most? That certainly doesn't deserve a bullet to the head (granted your original post was that you want this just because she annoys you, not due to her criminal activity). Hank is not innocent either. Aggravated assault and battery.

Nothing lower than a thief. Marie is easily 100 times worse than Walt. If this was a George RR Martin book she would be down a hand and sent to the Wall.

Marie is terribly annoying, of course. Which, sadly, is not a crime.

My wife decided to watch this season with me. She has no want to watch the entire series. She doesn't ask much but the questions she does ask get responded to like this:

"Well that guy killed....nevermind it's a long story...."

There is literally no point unless you watch from the beginning.

If I started watching in season 4 or 5, I would basically see no redeeming quality in any character.

I'm going to spoiler this, even though it's pretty obvious fake:

Re-watched the episode earlier... the tone of the phone call was a lot more obvious when I wasn't still caught up in the way the family fell apart.

You could clearly see Walt struggling to keep up his Heisenberg act, and it got worse as it went along.

Can't wait for the next episode.

This is sad...but I was just relaxing here and thought "aww, yeah, it's breaking bad day" like it is Christmas or something. Good stuff.

Now what WILL be sad is that first Sunday without it when you realize that not only is the season over... the series is over.

I have other shows to watch, of course... but man do other shows start to look ho-hum after this...
