If you missed it, I wrote a little essay yesterday about where I see Walt, Hank, and Gus going. I’ve got some feedback that I’ll try to work into a part two / refinement sometime over the weekend. Some good news about the deal between Sony and AMC for the fifth season of Breaking Bad,…
Actually, I couldn’t find any real news today. I mean sure, there are endless recaps and rehashing of the same old stuff, but nothing really genuinely new. If you want to have a look, be my guest. In lieu of rehashes, I did some thinking and wrote an essay that covers some realizations I’ve had about Gus,…
I’ve been watching a lot of gangster movies lately (I blame AMC’s mob week), and I’m struck by how often things end badly. In the Godfather duology (you have a problem with that?), Michael gradually loses everything chasing the illusary concept of going legit just after he settles some family business. In Scarface, Tony loses…

Hey folks, We are a week late and a buck short but I think we still deliver the goods. In this episode we catch you up on the latest and greatest of ….well, last week’s news but at least you get to hear our views and see if they excite you or if you…
Hope you all have had (or will have, for the West coasters) a pleasant morning. We dropped episode six of our podcast, covering Breaking Bad episode 404, “Bullet Points”. If you liked the opening, you should really check out the interactive Gale Boetticher evidence file at the official site. The video of Gale singing is…
During the recap, we discuss Mike’s cold open, what a doozy of an episode this turned out to be, the fine art of card counting, what Hank may or may not know, how cool it would be to have Gale as a friend, how The French Connection influences Breaking Bad, if Saul has his eye on the Endgame Option, and what Jesse’s role will be in Gus’s organization moving forward.
Before I pimp everyone else’s content, let me pimp our own: This is my instant take for last night’s episode, and this is Jim’s. About the only thing we agree on is that this episode of Breaking Bad was terrific. I think it rates a notch below 401/”Box Cutter” for “minds blown per hour”, but…
Looking for A.Ron’s take? After a couple bridge episodes, as I called them in my “Thirty-Eight Snub” and “Open House” reviews, Breaking Bad charges back to full form this week with a stellar episode packed full of action, surprises and comedy.
Looking for Jim’s take? Wow. I know a lot of people were sort of losing the faith in the show the past two episodes, but this one delivered, and promises so much for next week and the weeks beyond. From the cold (heh) open to the final scene, this episode was relentlessly entertaining. I might…
