    It's crazy to watch Dean Norris in Breaking Bad and Under The Dome at the same time. One talented actor, working with two completely different production values.

    Seriously! Now you know Dean is being totally wasted by lesser actors and writing. Such a shame. Hopefully he can get a better gig because Under the Dome could be canceled. haha. :cry:

    I am absolutely ecstatic on how the season opener of the final season started! If anything, Vince Gilligan has a real clear vision of where to end the show. Great acting especially by Dean Norris, great pacing, writing, etc... There has never been a show like this in television history. From the story telling, to the constant themes, colors, and motifs that's in the show, there is so much to analyze in each episode. That combined with the acting, action, writing, and directing, I can safely say this is one if not THE best shows ever!

    Anybody else do a whole series run through before the new season started? I know I did and there were so many things I didn't catch the first time around. Fun, fun series to watch agian. [/


    We watched the entire series again too. Just as good the second time around!!! Great season opener, Sunday nights can not get here fast enough! Love me some Aaron Paul!

    Nice! Aaron Paul has evolved so much as an actor from the start of the series. It's great to see that.

    Aw bummer man! haha. Yeah, Netflix always puts on the last season about within a week before the new season is going to air. Helpful tip for next time. :evil:

    Yeah, there was a rumor that wasn't going to happen this time because of the deal with iTunes. And I was not going to miss it

    I just started watching this show last night. I'm watching season 1 ep 6 at the moment lol
    I'm so proud of you. What do you think?

    Yeah not bad, I thought I wasn't going to be able to take him seriously cause I'd only ever seen him on Malcolm in the middle, but he's a great actor. I think I'll like it

    Wait until you get into a couple of seasons. He gets faaaaaaar away from any resemblance to Malcolm's dad.

    However, the glimpses of him in his tighty whities throughout the show helps bring a little lightheartedness and reminds you of good old Hal. :lol:

    Thoughts on who will be alive and who will be dead at the end of the last BrBa episode??

    I feel like Walt will be the only one left alive. Skyler, Daughter, Flynn, Sol, Jessie, [Hank?] er'body will end up dead and his last actual actions will be to avenge their deaths... (hence future Walt) - His curse will be that while he has access to tons of money, the ironey will be that his family, whome he has done all this for in the first place, will be dead, and he continues to live, cancer free, but full of guilt as a wanted man...

    Disclaimer: I have no actual or true knowledge of whats going to happen, I just love specific speculation and seeing how close I can get ;)

    Lets see how close we can come... Do we need to start a BrBa Predictions thread??

    *SPOILER GUESSES!!!!!*

    going with the tragedy theme, id invert it tho. i think he will die of cancer like he was supposed to, but will lose everyone close to him and go out alone and morally bankrupt destroying the lives of those he cares about most (if that is still the case). whatever happens, i have complete faith in the writers to do the shows conclusion justice

    That would explain the M-60, but why something as subtle as the ricin then? Maybe for him?

    or for whomever he is planing on exacting avenge... could be some sort of international thing... remember the German company <?>

    do you think he will try to kill himself? i think hes beyond redemption at this point as a character. subtlety= ricin for hank?

    The weapon and the poison are at odds; if he's intent on going down guns blazing, why the ricin? The only thing I can think is maybe a soft landing for himself. Or, maybe a larger group of people at another location. How many people did he tell Jesse that amount of ricin would kill?

    Gun = protection/defense
    Risin could be his "cyanide capsule" - I doubt it - more likely could be used as a threat like the fulminated Mercury.

    As this show does each season, it escalates in violence and geographical impact. The last episode is gonna go out with a bang/shock - W.W. killing himself in some last stand scenario is not likely, it would suck, and It better not happen :hunf:

    beyond redemption - that's relative... I mean beyond redemption to his family and community - yeah ill give ya that... but I think we will be able to say, by the end, he will have felt redeemed from his and most likely the viewers eyes. JUST MY SPECULATIVE 2 Cents
