Looking for Jim’s take? This was a great episode. Jim’s raving about it, which is okay, although I’m not like that about it. I think what I admired most was the pacing. Lots of good acting work and letting the audience draw conclusions, with a nice action payoff. The opening shot was reminicent of the…
Light news today, like most Fridays. I’ll definitely be expanding on my essay this weekend on where Gus, Walt, and Hank are heading this weekend; like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter if you want to know when it hits. Can’t wait for this week’s episode to get here, because it looks like…
We are back after last week’s hiatus. Honestly, I’m heartbroken we lost the Jim Jones Experiment. It was an hour long mind fuck of yours truly by Jim Jones, and it was weird, it was uncomfortable, it was hilarious by the end, and it would have been legendary, and then Jim deleted it, with no backups. Because, I dunno? Mac people don’t make good backups. I guess?
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.
