I think I may have dropped the oh-shit-this-show-makes-me-feel-dirty bomb a week too early. That idea was ratcheted up this week. All along, we’ve been questioning where to draw the line on Walter White. When should we jump ship and say “this is an evil man, he deserves what he gets”? For many, that line was…
Read MoreUp until tonight, I could see a semi-happy ending to Breaking Bad. I had to squint maybe, but it was there. Okay, so what if Walt, Skyler, Hank, Marie, even Walt Jr. end up biting it. We can always have Jesse and Baby Holly on the run with a barrel full of cash. I’d take…
Read MoreWe had a lot to say about this episode, without talking about the actual episode. Is that weird? It’s just all our thoughts and feelings about this season, and where it’s going, and whether we feel good about it or not. It’s a weird “instant cast” for a weird, slower paced, brutal penultimate episode. I think my last hopes for even a modicum of happy ending died tonight. Can’t wait to see what everybody else thought!

Watching this episode took a year off my life, Princess Bride-style. It felt like it lasted 3 weeks long. It was sad, heart-pounding, gut wrenching, and absolutely a stunning hour of television. Find out what our final review was, as we discuss Uncle Jack’s soft spot, Ozymandias references and homages, the curious indifference to reckless driving and bullet holes by the NM State Police, stray dogs, and stealth f-bombs. All this, your feedback, and a very, very light spoiler section as we enter the home stretch of this final season of Breaking Bad.

Last week in our podcast covering “To’Hajiilee”, I refused to judge the wisdom of ending the episode in the middle of what everyone expected to be a fatal gunfight for Hank, Gomie, Jesse, Walt or maybe just everyone. After seeing this week’s episode – “Ozymandias” – I’m glad I held that judgement.
Read MoreBreaking Bad returned to form, once again proving that it’s worth grinding your gears a little to get to the “good stuff”. In this case, the “good stuff” was really, really bad, awful in places, but it was some of the best damned television I’ve ever watched. What else can you say about an hour…
Read MoreYou all saw the episode. You know we have much to talk about. Let’s get it on then! Jesse! Hank! Walt Jr! Holly! Todd! We hit all the high points, but join us for our COMPLETE coverage on Tuesday night!

Hello and welcome to the back half of the final season of Breaking Bad. This week we discuss “To’hajiilee”, where Jesse hits Walt where he really lives, out in the deep desert, with eight figures buried just under foot. Join Jim and A.Ron as they discuss Huell’s waffles, Saul’s fifty, Hank’s gambit, Walt’s surrender, Todd’s creep, snot-yellow meth, neo-nazi marksmanship, and Hank’s fleeting moment of triumph. All this, your feedback, and a bit of the old spoiler action in our proprietary spoiler section at the end of the cast.

The tables are turned this week and the mighty Heisenberg is finally captured… at least for a few seconds. Though not quite as twisty as last week’s timeline-slight-of-hand episode, I really appreciated the way the plot unfolded in To’Hajiilee. Hank has a history of taking pictures of crime scenes on his shitty 90’s flip phone…
Read MoreIn the final analysis, Walt’s empire business has crumbled all because Huell, card carrying member of Saul’s “A-Team”, hasn’t heard Bald Move’s standing Public Service Announcement, “Don’t Ever Talk to Caps, Man, For Real.” Walt tried to do Los Pollos Hermanos on the cheap, and from the start Vamanos Pest Control has plagued by problems…
