Breaking Bad

[Bannister]

"I won." ____ing awesome.

 

[Moonloop]

That was great.

Spoiler

I wonder where they are gonna go next season. Will Walt and Jesse continue cooking Meth? But maybe this time, they work for no-one but themselves. That is the only way I can see them continuing to cook.

Or maybe Walt and Jesse will leave the business and attempt to get their lives on track to a crime-free life. But in the process they encounter old enemies. The Cartel might be an enemy in the final season, with the DEA taking a larger role and potentially Walt assisting them with what he knows.

A lot of people are also predicting a Walt v. Jesse showdown for the final season, which is possible; especially if Jesse finds out Walt poisoned the kid. But at this point I would find it strange if Jesse wanted to kill Walt after it was over and done with, and the kid is fine and Gus is dead.

Interesting contrast how Season 3 ended with Jesse killing someone to save themselves, and this time around it was Walt doing the killing to save them.

I was expecting a cliffhanger ending, but as Vince Gilligan mentioned they don't know how the show is going to end. So I figure that factored into the ending without a cliffhanger. This way when they begin writing in November, they can literally start a new story from beginning to end. I have ideas where the show will go in the final season, but I have no idea how it will end.

Another great show coming to an end, I'd always have an end date set ahead of time though. It makes a better story as a writer to know when it will end, and it's great that we get three extra episodes for the final season (16). Although I heard the final season will be split in half, something like 6 episodes first and then the final 10 a few months later (I think AMC is doing the same thing with The Walking Dead?).

holy ____ing shat, what a ending. was expecting a cliff hanger with not knowing if Gus got killed or not.
Still a great season ending with it showing how ruthless Walt could be when pushed to it.

Will be interesting how all of Gus's players filter out during next season, you know that the old hired gun dude (can't recall his name) will come a knocking since his employer is now gone, he'll be looking for work now. I'm sure Sal will be good comic relief as well.

I work in the entertainment industry, so I work on sets all the time. I don't watch much of anything I work on, I need to have some of the magic left, so I wait patiently every week trying my best to avoid reading spoilers and watching teasers for "BReaking BAd."

"BReaking BAd" gets an hour of my full attention for being the best Written, Acted and Directed (everything else too) show on ANY network.

GREAT SEASON FINALE!!

I'm pretty sure Gus is done, unless he's coming back as some fake two-face or something.
Also I was kinda scratching my head when they showed that flower pot at the end, kind emplying Walt poisoned the kid.
If anybody can come up with a reason why, please fill me in. I guess it would be to sway Jesse to help him out. Also, how did he even get it to Brock?
I have no idea what they are gonna come up with next season. It's suppose to be the last, but c'mon. This could have been in my personal opinion, even though there's no real resolve.

Well said. I kept saying at work today "If anyone gets in my way of watching Breaking Bad tonight, they will pay in blood" It's really the only show I watch on TV anymore. So glad we get one more season.

"I WON" Walter White

Was watching Batman Begins and the season finale come on after. I didn't bother to change the channel and got hooked and I have no idea what is going on, since I have not seen any other episodes. So glad I have Netflix. I'm going to have to check this series out.

Oooh, that kinda sucks. A lot of the suspense probably won't hit you the same way it hit all of us since you know what happens.
All the same, check it out anyways.

Everyone's forget one thing. Mike is still alive in that Mexican Hospital. What's he going to do when he's healed and finds out what's happened.

 

[Darklord Dave]

It appears that perhaps they thought this would be the series finale and that's why it's wrapped up.

Spoiler

I think it's pretty obvious that Walt poisoned the kid to get Jesse back on his side.

I expected them to do something with this as a cliffhanger - Gus has been watching the lab on his laptop ever since he installed all the cameras - So the DEA is going to find that laptop and perhaps recordings of everything that went on in the lab. Could be trouble for Walt.

I think we kind of want to see Walt get taken down at this point.

 

[ChaserFan]

I still can't stop thinking about the scene where

Spoiler

Gus walks out with half his face missing

...if anything's a testament to how crazily good & f__ked up this show is, that's it

 

[SwedishHeat]

When Gus walked out I was like "No, no, NO. . . how does he keep survi. . . HOLY ____!!"

Yeah Mike is the name I couldn't recall. Will be interesting to see his response next season. I think he'll be like, good job and let's keep it going. maybe, maybe not.

 

[mrjasontodd]

I wonder how many people entered that contest to win a walk on role for the next season.

 

[SwedishHeat]

For anyone who didn't think Walt was truly a bad guy, EW has a nice recap of his most infamous moments.

https://tvrecaps.ew.com/recap/breaking-bad-season-4-episode-13-season-finale/

There's also an interview with Vince Gilligan, in which he pretty much lays out that Walt is one bad dude

https://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/...talks-about-ending-the-season-and-the-series/

EW does bring up one of my favorite parts of the whole series, Hector's nose breathing and eye-acting. I am gonna miss that.

awesome episode! the scene between Tio and Gus was brilliant. the split second lure of the false apology and Gus' resulting vulnerability mixed with the sound of the final "for whom the bell tolls" was the show at its finest. loved the symbolism of Gus' end (remember the pink bear from earlier in the season?)… the very fact that the death of this monster makes me sad is a testimony to the writing. Walt is like the joker (complete with green shirt) and Gus was Two Face… the line between good guys and bad guys is completely blurred. love love love that the writers didn't have to go with a big cliff hanger… it is going to be a long wait for season 5.

I was on the fence before but after Sunday I said this was officially the best tv show ever. After the explosion and you see Gus, there was literally about 10 seconds of silence and dropped jaws in my living room. Just when you think everything in the world is crap ( a la stan marsh) along comes breaking bad.

 

[meth head]

The ''I won'' comment at the end was just awesome!!!

Can't wait for season 5 now
