    If you paid close attention to the last couple episodes (starting with the one that ended with the shootout)...Marie switches from purple to black.

      It started when she found out about Walt and tried to console Skyler only to discover that she was more complicit than either Hank or Marie thought. People over on TWoP thought it was her mourning the "death" of her relationship with her sister.

        I did notice!

        The death that made me the saddest was Mike's. It was a relief when Hank was killed because I thought that it would mean Walt could get away. I guess yes and no to that.

        And I was rooting for Walt the whole time.

          Just looking back, there are so many great characters in Breaking Bad: Walt, Jesse, Hank, Mike, Gus, Saul...

          It really is the best show that has ever been made.

            I think the Wire will give Breaking Bad a run for its money. It was far more literary, with a social message. Breaking Bad was more pulpy. I don't know what constitutes "best" but BB is certainly the most entertaining show I've experienced.

              I think the depth of characters, morality, and the little details that kept emerging throughout the series made BB as great as it was. It is difficult to find a shortcoming.

                You nailed it 100%. Breaking Bad is certainly an enjoyable watch, especially the first time through, but I don't think it will age as well once all the hype dies down because it was so plot-heavy, and just doesn't have the depth of The Wire, or Mad Men, or Deadwood.

                    This. Just finished the series and it took us just over a month start to finish. Never heard anything about the plot or the ending or anything else. Only knew that it was about a teacher who makes meth.

                    Best show I've ever seen and I'll miss it although it's a relief to be done with it as it consumed us over this time.


                    As the wife stated and I feel the same... other shows seem diminished in its light.

                    The Walking Dead, as much as I like it, isn't even close.


                    RIP Heisenberg - they did a wonder on me to think that I'd still be rooting for him in the end after all the horrible things he caused.

                    Great show.

                      Yeah, it was exhausting those last couple weeks. You were drained after watching a show.

                      Agreed on other shows being diminished a bit, only because they came around the same time as BB was airing. I think some shows would be raved about more, if it were not for BB.

                        We talked about what it would have been like to watch it in real time and have to wait a week each time instead of "you up for another?"

                        Ultimately I think it's better to have to wait as you have more time to process the heavier events. When you watch 3 or 4 episodes in a sitting, the events of the earlier episodes get left behind from an emotional standpoint.

                        Either way though, this is the way we had to do it since we weren't watching all along and being able to binge definitely has its advantages too.


                        One of my favorite eps was the one with the fly in the lab. I was rolling which was nice coz this was a HEAVY show for the most part. It wore me out at times.

                          House Of Cards is like that, too. I had to stop after a couple eps this season, just to digest.

                          And love love love The Fly episode. It says SO much about Walter's character/etc it's sick. And to think, many hate that episode because "nothing happens."

                            At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                              I got an email from Netflix indicating the whole series is now available for streaming.

                                Yep. Monday.

                                We were in need of the second half of season 5 or all of season 6 (depending on how you look at it) on Saturday night. Ventured to the video store at 11:30 pm to get the dvds. That train wasn't waiting till Monday, no sir.
