BB was done months ago, chances are Under the Dome was too but Dean Norris' involvement means nothing for Hank's future, unless you're specifically suggesting that the reason he was able to do Under the Dome is because Hank dies early in S5b and thereby had a big opening in his schedule.

I may be missing something here or getting levelled or whatever, but it just seems blindingly obvious that Dean Norris being in Under the Dome is completely irrelevant to Hank's fate.

He's probably just talking about the Saul Goodman spin-off. Which was probably always going to be a prequel anyway, because who doesn't want to see more Mike and more Gus? And of course...

The twist when it happens will be intrinsically linked to flies/insects, some way some how, the repetition of the insect charts, the fly episode, the boy with the spider and the lingering shots of flies have definite meaning. Nothing in this show is done without prior consideration. I believe the creator is trying to foretell what happens through these shots.

Vince Gilligan has a hard on for Shakespeare like storytelling.

Hadn't watched this show before 3 weeks ago powered through all of them. By far the greatest show I've ever watched. I think this ends with Jesse killing Walt and Hank and getting out of the business.

They're having BrBa week at AVClub.com. Been 4 articles so far and each have been good. Can't wait for the farewell posts on that site the final week of the show.

Yeah, I went back and watched the end of season 3. This line was bull****. Walt's "ego" didn't ruin the relationship and bring down the Fring operation. Gus basically asked for it when he went to murder Walt. We definitely see Walt's ego all over the place in season 4 and 5, sure, but Mike pinning the blame of the happenings on season 3 is a mistake.

So, this brings the question: Did the writer forget the storyline, or did Mike's character?

PS: "I would never ask you that" was an amazing line.

I think it's completely in-character for Mike to blame the downfall of Gus' empire on Walt's ego, regardless of whether you or I might believe him to be right. Mike's had issues with Walt's ego ever since their bar fight, and probably before.

Some nuggets from the first reviews of s5e9:

(minor spoilers here about how Episode 9 starts and what direction the show might be headed in, but nothing major. Def something to whet the appetite).

Spoiler:
Quote:
The return episode is riveting from start to finish – with the use of another flash-forward that also kicked off this final season – and it concludes with an extended scene that is written, acted and shot with the kind of magnificence that is at the heart of why the series is so exalted.’ – Tim Goodman, The Hollywood Reporter


Spoiler:
Quote:
‘The episode picks up immediately where the first half of the final season left off, with Hank (Dean Norris) having just had a staggering jolt to his system while in the bathroom — it’s evident from his expression that he now knows Heisenberg is Walt.’ – THR


Spoiler:
Quote:
‘And give Norris a ton of credit, because when he finally comes face to face with the truth, his fine acting goes off the chart, and, playing off of Cranston’s own brilliance, causes a million goose bumps to rise on the viewer.’ – THR (Does Hank accuse Walt right away?)


Even less spoilerish stuff, basically teasers:

Quote:
‘The biggest plot development, which we won’t reveal here, won’t surprise viewers. Its speed and ferocity might.’ – David Hinckley, NY Daily News

‘If this first episode foreshadows the other seven, much of the drama will be psychological.’ – NYDailyNews

Why didn't Mike let Jesse grab his go bag for him? It couldn't be that Mike thought he was being followed, since he prev stated how good he is at recognizing a tail and then losing the tail.

Maybe Mike was worried his go bag was being watched?
