i dont want to think about the bomb or whatever. this show is sick good and i'm just enjoying it bit by bit.

does anyone else's dad drink with them like walt did? I mean not that psycho, but a degree like that? my old man puts on that charade a little bit, thought it was more common... the "have a ****ing drink dont be a pussy" act... i thought dads did it to prevent their kids from becoming, what does baldwin call it in departed, "****ing health care nuts, go **** yourself"

It could certainly end in a blaze of glory with this season's finale like bee-dre is predicting, I hope they take us into a third season where they show his rise to Avon/Marlo of Albuquerque, and then season 4 where he has a full fledged gang war with the mexicans, and then he dies (from what!???) and it ends.

What a gem of a show. Just watched all 2 seasons in one week's time. Sad that I finally caught up to real time.

The opening sequence foreshadowing was freaky cool. I guess you have to assume that something blew up the car and some debris went into the pool. I can only surmise that it is their soon to be daughter's teddy bear.

Walt Jr and Skyler will be killed by a car bomb (hank mentioned thats how the cartel do their dirty work) bc cartel has to send a message to heitzeberg.

just hunch but lets see where it goes. this would build on the more scareface change we may see.

Would enjoy hearing your thoughts on the opening 30 seconds.
Yeah this. Goes from video taping his suicide message, sticking a gun in his mouth and pulling the trigger to ruthless thug. The intent from the beginning was to cook meth to care for his family after he is gone - then he ends up living and his choice to cook meth causes the death of the people he was trying to help.

Full circle.

As much as the irony of Walt outliving his wife and son would be cute, I don't see them doing it. I can't imagine the show continuing without Walt's family. They're such an integral part of the show; the flip-side to his meth dealing. Without them, Walt's character becomes far different and probably less interesting. The fact that he can do all that he's doing and then go home and become Cliff Huxtable is what drives the tension and drama.

Walt would have no reason to live w/o them, i doubt he'd be motivated to to anything. So no, don't see that happening.

Yes it was. It was a wry joke about how living a day-to-day life can be a bitch.

I wish I hadn't started watching this show until it ended and could just pound through the series in a week. Easily the only show on TV now I can't wait to see.

Krysten Ritter was on Chelsea Lately. I'm sure repeats will be on.

Don't watch it if y'all want to continue enjoying that quiet, sexy trouble thing she has.

Summary:
Spoiler:
She was pretty awkward and sort of dorky. Granted, Chelsea Handler might be pretty intimidating to some people (since she's an animal and hilarious) but Ritter probably shouldn't be doing interviews for awhile.

his wife gives birth, has an affair, her and the bossman get blown the **** up

walt goes on doin what he does for his kids

love the little things in the way they shoot this show

- at the party, they close in on the margarita going into the salt looks like drugs at first
- the accelerated shots of the new mexico skyline

interestingly, this show was supposed to be set in riverside, ca originally, but they got major production tax breaks by moving it to NM

A lot of you seem to be assuming the people in the body bags are part of Walt's family: Skyler, Walt Jr, Hank, etc. But it's just as likely it's a couple of Mexicans sent to attack him. We already know Walt can make a bomb/cause explosions with a few chemical ingredients. Perhaps he blew his own house up to protect his family, taking out the would be assassins in the process?

could also very simply just be a dream of walt's

I've listened to Dear Science, at least 40 times and had no idea TVotR has a black singer.

This is weirder than finding out that Dusty Springfield was white.

But if you're like me, now that you know you will start to notice little things in his voice and be like "of COURSE!"

Things are never as they seem in this show.

I am liking the idea that walt may have done it himself. Don't think the body bags are of hot skyler and her boss. She is smart enought not to bring him around the house.

Private Joker et al I agree that the show would be hurt with-out the family. But someone preciously pointed out the whole circle. Walt started this for his family his (may) have been killed ... thefore the american audiance would want vengence.... thus the whole scarface thing. But then again really hoping that BB throughs us all for a loop.

05-14-2009 , 02:40 PM
i watched that last scene like 5 times, and every single time he says "stay out of my territory" i'm like "**** YES!!"

Rent the movie Rachel Getting Married. He plays the guy Rachel is getting married to, and he's actually a pretty good actor. And the movie is great.

I'm like 90% sure that the body's are the two wives and either the Cartels or Local comp. did it. If it is somehow the two wives, it would open a ton of potential story line with Walt and Hank. Hank would think the attack was aimed at himself b/c he is DEA while Walt would obv know it was aimed at himself.

Hank would go rogue and end up finding out that Walt is Heisenberg. Because Hank would be so insanely hell bent on revenge, he would probably start working with Walt to get back at the people that killed their Wives.

You also wouldn't lose the family connection that keeps Walt grounded. Walt Jr. would still be alive as well as the baby (if they take this path the baby would def be born first). Also, Hank would probably end up spending more time with Walt which would also keep walt from going non-stop Heisenberg.

The only thing that kind of keeps this from developing is the fact that the story with Walt's wife and Ted just began. So it may not be Walt's wife, but i am really confident it is at least Hank's Wife in the bags
