wow sd, rationalizing and justifying the actions of a murderer and meth cooker

congrats.

is tony soprano innocent, too? michael corleone?

none of this is a blame list. its to show how walts actions cause pain to people. how his choices affect others, that there is consequences for his atrocious actions.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

SD

you both completely missed my point but why am I surprised

The core concepts of the show are:
Walt
His family
Jesse

When you deviate from their story, that's fine. But when you go from some girl Jesse was banging, to her Father making two planes crash then you're going away from what the show is about, which is Walt's story. They showed the stupid eyeball from the bear floating in the pool and body bags in front of their house for like 5 episodes, then you come to find out it was a plane crash that was caused by Jesses's girlfriends Father. Why end the season and build up the drama to the plane crash when it's just a deviation from the main theme of the story. Why don't they just start showing every story from every meth head who Hank/Jesse has sold too? I mean, according to you whatever they do from here on out is Walt's fault.

i got your point, i just think its stupid.  as the only person in the entire world who had the actual option of saving the chick, walt is somehow not responsible for the girl dying, who is the #2 cause of the accident according to your scientific list.

SD

No, you missed the point entirely. The plane crash was stupid and an unnecessary part of the show.

The End.

Rest of the show is grand.

youre unnecessary

i cant make you like what happened but it certainly makes sense in the context and thematic elements of the show. you can say i thought it was dumb or didnt like the build up in a pure story telling format, which is alright. but it made sense, stallion.

I'd agree if the context of the show and thematic elements were about an Air Traffic Controller and his junkie daughter....




but it's not

I basically can't read this thread anymore because I hope to someday watch Breaking Bad.

The Tudors finale was sunday night and I really enjoyed it and thought it was a great series. If you are interested in history and haven't seen it, I recommend it.
Calling it right on the $ since day one.
Just pointing laughing, and living it up while watching the Miami Heat stink it up.

If your interested in history you know not to watch 5 minutes of that tripe.

If you like a semi interesting story littered with sex scenes, then give it a shot.
