Badger, on the other hand, is pretty horrid at playing guitar.

When you can spin a giant arrow like he can, you can talk.
One little thing that kinda bugged was how very unsubtle their movie selection was.

It was a cross promotion for AMC showing Scarface this week, plus the whole "everybody dies" thing was a shout out.

That cook scene and the distribution scene with Badger, Skinny Pete, and Combo in season 2 are some of my favorites in this series. The music and pacing of those scenes is fantastic.

Anna Gunn is seriously really good at playing a terrified, trapped, depressed wife of a drug lord.

(that's not really a 'shout out' but...) Yes, I along with everyone who watched the episode instantly knew that. Not hating, just thought that scene was a little heavy handed.

What are the opinions of Walt here? Am I the only person who really hates him?

Of course not. If you don't hate him, then Vince Gilligan didn't do his job.
He did a switcheroo with Jesse and Walt over the long haul that's absolutely brilliant.

I think everyone with a conscience hated Walt a while ago. He's definitely supposed to be hated by now.

OK good. I only began watching the series this summer and just a week ago caught up with everything, so I haven't really posted in this thread too much. But I kind of thought that there would be a cult of personality around Walt.

I'm a sucker for sticking with the anti-hero to the end no matter what they do whether that be Tony Soprano, Don Draper, Vic Mackey, etc. I will say, it is getting awfully tough to still want the best for Walt. There's still a part of me that wants to see him turn things around but he's gone all in and any redeeming qualities 'good guy' qualities he had died with Gus Fring. I'm still not ready to hate him quite yet.

Don Draper is hardly a person to place in the same manner as these three.

Why? You can make the argument she was a little impatient with Walt early in the series but what is she doing wrong now exactly?

Tis true I guess. He's more of a true anti-hero than an anti-hero-turned-villain like the others. Still, there are certainly still people out there who hate Don. Was trying to think of dominant TV anti-heroes though I could have probably come up with more examples from movies.

Clearly she should fully embrace her psychopathic and homicidal husband who she is terrified of.

Skylar just needs to get used to the spousal rape and keeping her mouth shut.

Walt is the best villain I have ever seen portrayed on television. Just so evil, manipulative, and power hungry. Brian Cranston should win a lifetime achievement award for his performance. I have faith I will be satisfied with the ending just based on how great the show has been to this point. I have watched a lot of tv shows, Breaking Bad is my favorite.

Yeah, the best villains don't actually think they are villains. Walt is very unlikeable now.

"Just because you shot Jesse James, don't make you Jesse James."
Walt is all like "I'm a bad ass."
Mike is all like "Child Please."
