Breaking Bad coming back

Yeah, I see where you're coming from. It's very subjective, but I for one am pretty tired of Jesse sitting around with a blank expression and bloodshot eyes. There's got to be a better use for the character.

Just my opinion.

True. I'm waiting for his story line to pick up. But that's why I think he's going to die. I can't think of anything else to happen to him at this point. I don't see him rotting in prison and he probably wants to die at this point.
 
Lidia and Todd ,,, all I'm saying.

The show is dumb on a certain level. So many, "yah rights".
Like the Lidia attack on the desert meth lab. How could they get anything like a drop on those guys? They would have seen them coming MILES off.
 
For Halloween Im going to shave my head (I did it last year for Bane) and chop my beard to a goatee, get a lab coat and respirator and be Walter White.
Im going to hand out blue rock candy in little baggies to all the children.

At least until the police show up.

I was going to do that last year but I didn't want to shave my head or my beard. Besides at this point EVERYONE has dressed up like him.
 
Lidia and Todd ,,, a I'm saying.

Anyone besides me think Lydia would make the perfect fall guy (or gal if you prefer)?

All the main players are in deep doo-doo. Even Hank will suffer once it's revealed he let his own brother-in-law run the most lucrative and successful meth lab in Arizona--right under Hank's nose.

Pin it on Lydia? She's such a vain, reckless scoundrel, it would be fun watching her squirm in an orange jumpsuit.

I know: Too obvious, too easy, too little drama.

The lab is in New Mexico, not Arizona

Deklan's crew was based in Az and I don't think there was any mention in episode 5.10 where it was exactly, but it would make sense that it's in Az. Deklan's crew, cook, home base.

Lydia may be the only one who walks away untouched. But I thought Walt's gun (first shown in ep.5.1) was going to be aimed at Deklan and now he's dead, so what do I know?

Deklan, Deklund, dead guy. Unsure of spelling.
 
Seriously I wonder if meth heads got inspired by the show to improve their product.

This is interesting. It says that while meth has pretty much been perfected, especially by Mexican manufacturers, and is not blue when it is perfected, some producers were actually putting blue dye in their product, a tribute to the show no doubt.

Hank will quickly snap Jesse out of his current state of stupor. Jesse has been pretty loyal to Walt. After all, Walt facilitated Jesse becoming very successful at *something*. But Jesse doesn't have a clue (yet) the true extent of Walt's twisted manipulation of him. And now Jesse is going to be further manipulated by Hank to get at Walt.

Jesse will wake up soon, to a lot of truths.

Oh well that's disappointing. Way to ruin the allure of the product, reporters :)
 
Some Jesse analysis: http://www.theatlantic.com/entertai...-show-even-about-walter-white-anymore/278552/

"Breaking Bad is about poison, but it’s also about false exteriors. Every major character carries a hidden side: The milquetoast cooks meth, the swaggering cop privately sobs, the devoted sister shoplifts, the devoted wife cooks books, and the hit man's just a doting grandpa. The only character whose true nature remains murky is Jesse, and that’s because Jesse himself doesn’t know who he is. His exterior is burnout idiot, his interior is… what? His desire to disburse his money is partly a vain attempt at absolution, but it’s also part of an identity crisis—he’s tried being a rich playboy, and it hasn’t worked. Remember how hopeful Jesse was when Gus Fring said he “saw something” in him?"

EDIT: Tapatalk for iPad mangled the quoted text and won't let me fix it. Sorry.
 
I've always wondered if Jesse would find out the truth about what happened to his girlfriend (I'm blanking on her name right now) and how Walt could have stopped it.

Jane.

I"m not sure if you've been watching Talking Bad but they asked Vince Giligan and Aaron which they thought Jesse would take the hardest if he found out. Walt 1) sending Mike to Belize 2) poisoning Brock or 3) letting Jane die. They both agreed it would be Jane.

Nope I didn't even know it existed until the season started again. I watched BB on Netflix. I never got a chance to watch it while it was on.

Well he knows that Mike went to Belize doesn't he? I thought Jesse said it to him on the first episode.
