GOOD GRIEF! I am so so so aggravated that my friends watch silly little vampire shows with metro boys prancing around and posing or pouting, but the best show I've seen like.....EVER isn't being watched by my little circle of friends. Is anyone watching this show? Just finished watching it tonight and totally tripping out. Amazed that ALL this has gone down in a year in their life. What a slippery slope! What a great show. I caught myself forgetting to breath, toes clenched, and a bite of popcorn unchewed during the chapel scene at the hospital. And the rooftop? WHAT? No breathing, and a whole lot of ducking, on my couch. :D
Last night: HOW DID GUS KNOW???
Jesse: he goes from lovable loser to pathetic druggy to surprisingly tough to....he's all over the place! But love him, and his loyalty. Walt: dude.
Skyler: I felt for her the first season or two, but then hated her more and more. Interesting how at the beginning of this season, money seems to have changed her mind.....but last night, there was a little hope of me liking her again.
I feel the same way as someone else mentioned: I was impressed by Gus, rooting for him in Mexico (although I really miss Hector dinging the stupid bell on his wheelchair.....that always cracked me up). Now of course I hate Gus and need to see him defeated (although, still very impressed with him). Wondering: do you think Jesse should have lost that cigarette already? Or just driven a little slower when Gus was sick? C'mon now! All this would have been moot if he'd just........driven slower. Where's Mike though? Weirdly worried about him.
YES I think I DO take this show a little too much to heart. Ack.
I am watching it right NOW...my husband and I are hooked (yes, pun intended). I have to surf and watch because it gets so intense.
Are you watching new episodes or streaming on Netflix? We just started season three.
ACH! I'm on the West Coast and haven't seen it yet ;-) Will in a little while. I think I won't follow your post.......'til tomorrow! ;-)
WOW! I also thought this was the end of the series so was glad to hear it's coming back next summer. GUS is SCARY! I'm worried about Jessie now! I think Mike is still in Mexico, he was too hurt to travel back with Gus and Jessie. The Lawyer (can't think of his name right now) cracks me up, he's such a stereotype. I don't know if Jessie and Walt are smart enough to outsmart Gus! He's pathologically smart!
I don't have strong feelings about Skyler, I think the dynamics with her sister explain why she's the way she is sometimes. She seems to like a challenge and to take over. Her sister drives me nuts sometimes. I like Hank. Boy they sure don't shield you from the heartbreak (Hank, Jessie's old girlfriend, her dad and the plane crash......).
The funny thing is, if you had told me I'd be watching a show about some methhead dealing making people, I would have said, NO WAY. The character development is great in this show!
LOL, our poor dog needed to go out in during the show and I'm usually right ontop of that. Didn't notice him walk by and standing staring at me, not sure how long!
I am.........but i dont have cable i buy the series when it comes out on dvd, or available on netflix. so ive only seen season 1 and 2...maybe three, but not the current one.
I like true blood as well though, but those arent exactly "prancy" vampires, lol.
I watch it, it is crazy. I cant believe next week is the season finale. It's a great program. I feel so bad for Mr White. He was so close to blowing up Gus, but apparently that's not gonna happen. :(
LOVE THAT SHOW!!!!
It's does such a good job of painting all of the characters in both lights. I find myself both rooting for Gus, and hoping that Walt takes him out. It's brilliant writing.
And I think through all of the seasons, my favorite character is Jesse. I just love him.
Skylar, however, could fall off the planet! :)
