Think I'm going to start re-watching this series (on Netflix) this weekend.
We are watching it on Sundance, three shows every Wednesday.

When I heard the learn’d astronomer,
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,
When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them,
When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture-room,
How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out I wander’d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.
W.W.

This is the kind of day I had Saturday.

Hulu. Streaming, new episodes on Wed, IIRC
it's a good substitute for BB - brian is a nasty small time crook wanting to be a big time crook
Best show ever! I just finished a binge watch of Breaking Bad. This was my first time watching it. I don't know how y'all, who watched it when it first aired, managed to survive from week to week. As soon as one episode ended, I was clicking on the next episode. It was like riding a roller coaster that never stopped. I'm exhausted lol.
I liked how the cartel was portrayed as the evil monsters they are. I hate it when bad guys are romanticized.

I believed Walter's lie. I believed he did it for his family... until the last episode. I'm still not sure which was the lie. Do y'all think he did it for his family? or Did he do it for himself?
The only bad guy I had any sympathy for was Jesse. I thought Saul and Mike were great characters but I didn't have much sympathy for them. Did y'all have any sympathy for any of the bad guys?

I've started ending sentences with the word yo 
I do believe he did it for his family, first and foremost. And, then he started to like it. He was good at it and he took pride in that. He took pride in being a bad ass, that he probably never was in his "real" life.
He did do it for his family at first but then greed and lust for power took over. Even Skyler got caught up in the greed. What I love about the show is the gradual transformation of Walt from nice guy to scarface. Also, the way the other characters (Jesse and Skyler in particular) changed over the course of the 5 seasons was done brilliantly.
As a chemist, I think Walter was very proud and jealous of his formula and that it was in such great demand.
Also there was that big, big message that drugs can destroy your life and it all comes down to greed and the almighty dollar.
I agree with DanaJean and FlowJoe. Haunted makes a good point, too.
The last three episodes were like dying in slow motion, lol. To see Walt lose his family (Walt Junior saying he hated him, that was hard )and the knowledge that he was holding Holly probably for the last time. Skyler looked like a shell, a ghost of her former self. Hank getting killed. Marie being widowed and probably never having a normal relationship with Skyler again. So tragic.
Does anyone wonder what Jesse did or where he went when Walt helped rescue him?
