    It was suposed to be 12 episodes and then the show`s over, but they decided to do 18 instead, but divided the season in 2... half this year and the other half the next year.

    You know...this is the first time I've ever wanted Walt dead. Right now, I hope he catches cancer again and dies slow enough to watch his "empire" crumble.

    Ladies and gentlemen, do not, I repeat, do not go to fucking prison. Hooooooly shit! Those stab wounds happened so fast, you couldn't even really count them as they were happening, you could only estimate the rate at which the bodies became covered in wounds in terms of (% covered)/time.

    I'm gonna go ahead and give Jesse some Kudos, because he was soooooooo ready to take Walt out, and he played it cool like a motherfucker. That kind of work still clearly is not in his nature, but yo bitch, if you're there to take a shot, get ready to rumble. And that ending, made me incredibly happy. I don't care that he's out, he fucking killed Mike. In hindsight, he might've needed to kill him regardless. Like Lydia said, Mike would not have taken kindly to Walt killing all his men in prison. I can't wait to see him go down in flames for this.

    Well, to be fair, Mike was a criminal as well. In fact, this show is kind of amazing in that the audience actively cheers for such bad people. Bryan Cranston says something of the sort on a Marc Maron interview.

    A lot of it has to do with how they deal with the situations. If they anguish over killing someone like Jesse did forever after killing that poor sweet man. I think that 2 minute prison massacre is one of the more interesting scenes. Not just the mass shanking parts.... but the cutting back to Walt in his dimly lit during the daytime house.

    High five for referencing WTF with Marc Maron. Two-handed high five if you heard the interview when it first came out a year ago.

    I just marathoned this show. Had decided to watch this one after i finished Sopranos. After watching like 2 episodes i just couldn't stop. Took me 1 week to catch up. I guess that's the one of good things about short seasons.

    Anyways what an incredible journey it has been. From chemistry teacher, to scared shitless cook that deals with Tuco, Gus and others like them, to fucking Empire-man that orders 9 deaths in less then 2 min.

    And how it ended. Walt says he's out (I'm guessing that he realized Skyler was right) and that's when Hank starts to connect the dots.

    So when it returns, will it be 8 episodes like now? And it's certain that this will be the last season and they are going for an ending?

    Walt has no reason to be sympathized with any more. He's one bad dude now.
    I keep trying to find a reason to sympathize with Walt, and I think it's his brush with death that is the reason to forgive him. I don't think any of us can really judge someone who's come that close to death and felt like life is a big disappointment. Also, everyone he's killed was a criminal or evil person too (I can't remember if he's killed anyone who could be considered innocent, but I don't think there were any).

    @Uchiha Barles: you mentioned Tyrus but no one ever responded, though you've maybe found out by now. The news report said 3 people died, so Tyrus is definitely dead, especially considering his position to the blast.

Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Oh really? I don't know why I heard 2...was pretty sure I even went back and checked. Probably misinterpreted something then. Well, no Tyrus, but he's still in an outhouse after diarrhea without toilet paper. Also, fuck that, Mike may have been a criminal, but he wasn't a horrible person. He had honor and only ever killed if he needed to. His actions were measured in all things and you can respect him as a man, and count him honorable, even if his job was illegal.

    Walt killing him for the reason he killed him, was a piece of shit move. I don't think he even thought he needed to kill Mike, he did it cuz he was pissed. Jesse leaving him as a partner, his wife wishing cancer on him, all of those things weighed on him, and then he did what he did.

    Yeah I remember wondering what if someone survived that blast, but it was pretty horrific if you looked into the room as Fring walks out and keels over. I just checked again and they definitely report 3 dead (ep 13 of season 4, the family is sitting around the TV watching the news report just as Skylar calls Walt, the reporter says 3 dead).

    Like Rockmanj said, it's weird how we're rooting for some pretty terrible people. Mike is no saint. He was a man of principle and honor, I'll agree with you there, but principle and honor can lead you to do some evil stuff.

    I think Walt killed Mike because Walt feels like he's the boss and no one better mess with him or challenge him. He just saved Mike's neck by warning him, so he feels even more upset that Mike won't even thank him or do as he asks (give him the names). You can tell by his remorse for killing Mike that he'll be really torn up if/when he kills Jesse.

    I got pissed at him for killing Mike even tho I saw it coming, but mainly because of the aftermath how he didn't even need to kill him. Well he still technically did need to or Mike would be trying to kill Walt for going after his men in prison. Soo idk I'm not suddenly against Walt for that. As much as I liked Mike.


    But if he does ever kill Jesse, thats my breaking point for him. Then I have zero sympathies left.

    I feel that Jesse may be the one that Walt has to run from when he was in N.H. I feel that Jesse will find out that Walt poisoned that one kid and let Jane die.

    If this all ends badly for Walter I'm sure that Jesse will be the one pulling the trigger.

    What about all those teasers at the beginning of episodes in season 2, where they're fishing evidence out of the pool and putting things in evidence bags, including Walt's glasses? And then they show two body bags, one the size of Walt and one shorter for Jesse?

    I don't think there's any way for Walt to walk away from this clean and free after all that he's done, which means he dies. This is like House where he gets away because deep down he meant well.
