Tbh I think you're right, especially after he poisoned Brock. I hope that's addressed in the coming episodes - seeing as these episodes are going to conclude the whole show they might use that as motivation for Jesse to kill Walt maybe?

I'm doubtful they'll use Jesse to kill Walt. I'm actually still quite doubtful that Walt's gonna die at all. I reckon season 5.1 might actually offer him a chance at redemption. Whether he takes it or not is hard to guess though.

Nope missed it but I did however catch a zombie wearing Jesse's hat in the finale of the walking dead...

So what are you guys thinking about Better Call Saul, the spinoff based on Saul Goodman that's going to start up in February? I liked Saul as a character quite a bit, but it could go down either way. I get the feeling that the dark humour is going to be a bigger part of this show than in Breaking Bad.

Didn't know that was even a thing. I'll have to go watch a trailer or something if there is one. It sounds like it's just gonna be him getting *ssholes out of trouble which will probably be a terrible show. If there is character development and he ends up with a new client like Walter White than it will end up being compared to Breaking Bad. Sounds like an uphill battle for maintaining steady viewers.

They'd probably take it in another direction like Frowns said. I can't imagine them doing another super serious linear epic drama.

Well, they have the brains behind Breaking Bad, Vince Gilligan and Bob Gould, writing it so it'll be clever if nothing else. Mike Ehrmantraut will be in the cast too. Only weird thing will be it's set 6 years before the events that kicked off BB. Both Saul and Mike are playing characters 11 years earlier than the end of BB yet they are gonna look awful old.

If this turns out to just be the back story of Mike and Saul I retract my previous post. I could definitely get into that if the writing is as good as it was for BB. I enjoyed both of those characters.
