Shall we anticipate the FIFTH SEASON of the AMC series "Breaking Bad"? I think I may.

The mighty Flynn has always brought us a little bit 'o' sunshine at just the right moments, but outdid himself when Saul showed up at the carwash: not only did the merry moment not detract from the momentum, somehow added to it, added some spin of elements (cue "Leader of the Laundromat"). of course it's probably gonna be one of his last happy encounters before all the crazy adults rain on his parade--but meanwhile, he lives his life as he should. One of the BB genius scenes.

Cranston gets most of the love but the last 13+ episodes of beaten down and destroyed Jesse have been A+ acting.

no he's been terrible in the last 2

what's his acting batting average

Let's keep sports out of this

have a weird feeling that much of next episode will be 'meanwhile back in the states' and we won't get the 'meanwhile back in the jungle' reveal until late.

this sounds right. same pattern as the jesse arson cliffhanger maybe, or they might even return to the flash-forward... especially if hank and gomez are killed, it would be really weird for BB to jump right back into the action

Exciting that Damon Lindelof is at the helm for the final two episodes.

Great work.

For all those kvetching about bad shooting, note the similarly armored North Hollywood shootout perpetrators were shot up to 20 times in the legs before losing consciousness.

If the nazis had any military experience, they'd pin Hank & Gomie with the guys on the truck, and zip around with the sedan. Fire base and maneuver element.

The real issue for Hank and Gomez will be ammo supply. Both have run through at least one mag by the end of the episode, while I suspect the nazis so far are just using recreational amounts of lead.

Assuming Hank and Gomez haven't notified DEA compatriots, next episode, they run out and can't bluff, the Nazis move around, and off 'em.

If they notified someone else at the DEA of the location, then the Nazis have <i>issues</i>.

Once Hank and Gomez are behind some cover, wouldn't the thing to do be to call for backup?

Kind of weird, but this didn't actually occur to me till now. I have no idea how long it would take for that backup to arrive though. The nazis seemed to have made it there pretty quick.

MILF's, MILF's, MILF's, MILF's!

the kung fu is gonna come into play

it's been too long since we saw Jesse's comic book art

so did Jesse think it would be funny to list DeVry or is that just a hard slam

LUST

love it when sanpaku drops that army shit!

The Nazis are pretty happy with their meth as it is - if they get to kill a couple of ZOG-supporting feds (who now know they're involved in Walt's meth operation), Walt can be collateral damage.

Nah they need Walt, Madrigal could go elsewhere for their meth if it isn't the blue stuff. Also Todd's thinking he won't get to bone Lydia unless he can make the blue meth. The one thing in Walt's favour is that no one involved would be willing to let him die (except maybe Jesse and he's the only guy without a gun).

Seems pretty obvious by now that Walt won't let Hank or Jesse die, or at least it's a red line he hasn't crossed yet. I can sort of see something happening next week that means that Walt, Jesse and Hank all have to work on the same side, especially when Hank finds out that the operation has gone way beyond Heisenberg now.

kinda hoping the last scene is Todd telling his kids thesis how he met their mother as a kettle boils and he pours a cup of chamomile for Lydia.

really hope todd manages to woo lydia before this all ends. we need something to hope for.

spin-off series "breaking good"

Fixing Good surely.

Think Todd just likes his women trembling with fear.

Cranston gets most of the love but the last 13+ episodes of beaten down and destroyed Jesse have been A+ acting.

boo, BITCH

so sad we haven't gotten to see jesse's kung fu shuriken skills in action. UNLESS...

so they're actually making a Better Call Saul spinoff show? I can't really picture how that's going to work.

its supposedly a prequel, from before Saul got to know Walt. Gus Fring is rumored to cameo.

it better be a half hour comedy

AMC and Sony Pictures Television confirmed today that they have reached a licensing agreement for a spinoff of Vince Gilligan’s landmark AMC/SPT series Breaking Bad. As conceived, the new series is based on the show’s popular Saul Goodman character with the working title Better Call Saul. Plans call for Saul to be a one-hour prequel that will focus on the evolution of the popular Saul Goodman character before he ever became Walter White’s lawyer.

to be spearheaded by BB writer/producer Peter Gould

was wondering if they were gonna go for some sitcom or fake doc (a la Parks n Rec/The Office) format but I guess this sounds like neither

Jesse said 'bitch' in his phone rant to Walt. Could that be Aaron's favorite 'bitch' material? He's like a spoiled rockstar out of touch with his fans.

if they want to go totally badass they should have saul violently killed in the last episode of BB, and then launch better call saul as a prequel wacky comedy hijinks show

if it's a prequel, they should change the title to Saul Rising.

an hour seems like too much imho. would ideally be like Always Sunny in Philadelphia starring Bob Odenkirk imho

imho

Maybe it's going to be about an idealistic public defender who goes bad (or "breaks bad") for some reason

im sure it will be a half hour comedy. gilligan has enough tv smarts to know this wouldnt work at 1 hour

has there ever been a drama that had a comedy spin off before

a one-hour prequel

p sure that happened in the 70s, c/r the example tho

xp

created by david milch!

ha i recall that show!

theres the movie alice doesnt live here anymore, def a drama, that was spun off into alice the sitcom

maybe to make Saul more sympathetic for the spin off they'll have him save the day

agree that its always sunny style utter degradation is the way to go

this HAS to be where they got Wiggum PI from, right?

pilot filmed by Hal Ashby!!

crazy right

I guess I can see it working if there's a revolving assortment of funny/fucked-up clients and Saul is constantly putting out different fires. if they can maintain that balance of humor and "oh shit" moments that BB does best then it would be awesome, but I'm not really interested in learning more about Saul's backstory or personal life I don't think.
