kinda sad there's only 1 episode left. looking forward to it & trying to throttle my expectations of the grand finale!
The music at the end, Jesse watching another of his girlfriends die, Walt having nothing but money . Damn.
First time watching this episode in almost 7 years, first time watching it after Robert Forster passed away - one hell of an actor.
88 | Since Ozymandias the tone of Breaking Bad changed a little. It was more like Fargo mixed with Narcos, and it was way better than many episodes before. Walt is becoming more naive than ever, he thought money could solve the hole in his family that he left behind. Besides Walt, a shocking moment put Jesse at another low point. This show is just not satisfied yet to torture Jesse.

This episode was a stark contrast to the last few, but especially 'Ozymandias', and sharply highlights what, to me, were its (OZ's) shortcomings, in how this episode showed its strengths. This episode handled tone very, very well. Better than an least some representative portion of the show. And I again felt myself feeling, as deeply as I could, for the characters, and the tragedy they endured. Jesse's section was gut-wrenching, as was Walt's phone call. I, however, still find myself feeling utter contempt for his son. He hasn't even shown the barest attempt to grasp the situation or even question the assumptions that were made. I would expect him to at least have some period of denial that might lead, if only accidentally, to some fact finding about his father's motivations and actions. I get that it's tragic that his son first turned on his mother due to Walt's duplicity, and now blindly hates his father, but it's more frustrating to watch the pathetic emotional inanity of his actions.
Todd continues to be the boyish picture of "the banality of evil". It's fascinating, as well like a repeatedly unexpected belly gut punch how Jesse, a character that was supposed to be a throwaway when he was first introduced, developed to the point where Breaking Bad could easily be called the tragedy of Jesse Pinkman.
My question is: Why the hell has Peter Gould only directed six episodes between BB and BCS? I'd love to more from him as a writer/director.
I have seen many tv shows but there will be never anything like breaking bad.
you just had to go on TV and say that crap, you MOFOS are going down!!
Most depressing episode of the series. I hated Walter in s05 but I felt sorry for him here.
Fuck... Walter lost almost everything.
He just have his money.
It was a intense moment when Walter Jr. asking why he was still alive... Man...
Jesse has been suffering so much. He has lost to women he loved.
Let's see how things are going to end.
Elliott and Gretchen just had to say that on live TV. They've basically reminded Walter about them and lied about his involvement in Grey Matter thus signing their death sentence.
Sh*t Jessie.This show has become a lot more intense in the last 3 episodes,I can't wait to see the last one.Get the music in the end,the next episode will blow your mind.
When the main musical coda kicked in at the end I got goosebumps. Also, fuck Todd. And the Neo-Nazis. That shit isn't cool.
Another brutal ending... Can't believe it's just 55 minutes to go :(
this is the best ever

This became very violent. I didn't like that. I liked this series because of his lack of violence (I mean, almost lack of it) and now it has been many deaths.
