Breaking Bad Season 5 Discussion so People like Rusty can Avoid Spoilers

You guys are retards. When he went to Walt's house originally he said he thought Saul or someone at Saul's office stole it. Walt then convinced him that Gus had it taken when Jesse was cooking. If you don't know what you're talking about then don't post in this thread.

i didnt think the revelation was a stretch. he got the weed stolen out of his pocket the same way the ricin was stolen out. he was already suspicious of walt poisoning brock, especially after he has been saying that walt killed mike.

There's been no indication of Jesse suspecting Walt poisoned Brock. None. The Doctors ruled out Ricin. Quit making crap up.

Well, there was that whole incident where Jesse stuck a gun in Walt's face and accused him of poisoning Brock with the ricin.

I meant after the Doctors cleared Ricin as the problem. There's no way that Jesse could assume Walt did anything outside of Ricin. Once Ricin was ruled out, Jesse can only assume it was a wild berry.

yup, would have been my guess too

There was still the missing ricin cigarette that Walt conveniently found in Jesse's roomba. Jesse is very naive, but he's not stupid. That was pretty suspicious.

The biggest plot hole with Jesse is that we are supposed to believe that a former heavy heroin and meth user who is showing clear signs of depression and hopelessness chooses to use marijuana to cope.

[Stevesie60]

Lefty, the cigarette still disappeared. And it's pretty obvious that it benefitted Walt greatly to make the cigarette disappear. Seriously, it's not that hard to stop posting on this thread since you obviously don't know what's going on.

Holy crap. Ok BB dumbass. You keep on keeping crap real.

Does anyone else feel this show doesn't deserve the hype? Don't get me wrong, this is a fantastic show with foreshadowing, clues to look out for and compelling writing, but it's not that good.

My theory is that 99% of shows out there are crap and when one show suddenly appears and is "different", people go into hyperbole mode. It's not that good. Color coordination and writing clues can't be that hard to do.

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

Come on guys, let's stop fighting and just all love this show.

Aside from the great acting, complex characters, compelling story line, and episodes packed with drama, suspense, mystery, and comedy, this show definitely is not that good.

Yeah I reread my post and I didn't mean to say "isn't that good." I should've said doesn't deserve the "best show ever" tag.

Great acting is debatable. Episodes packed with drama and suspense is also debatable. If anything, i'm more numb and desensitized to the crazy plots now.

Who exactly does the great acting? Let's start with that.

[Tobias]

pretty much anyone not named anna gunn IMO

(ed. note: i'm separating this from not personally liking her character, as is intended)

oh hey look guys the person who cant understand whats going on in a show thinks its "not that good"

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

did you guys ever see that movie "shawshank redemption?" anyways, didnt really get the scene where the kid talks about seeing dead people. not that great of a movie, imo!

[Lefty]

Ok dorks. It's honestly not that hard to follow. The color coordination pretty much lays it out! Oh crap Marie's not wearing purple today!!!!

And Walt assumes the characteristics of people he's about to kill!!!! Did you notice he was limping in the last episode? Holy crap doesn't Walt Jr also limp? Do you think Walt's gonna kill Walt jR?????????

[Tobias]

a deeper shade of brown

ok, this is a little off topic here but another thing i dont really get- symbolism. is that crap even real? ive heard people with their fancy clothes and dinner parties talk about symbolism in books and movies and tv series, but i think theyre just messing with me. anyways, sorry to rant, im going to go watch paint dry and then watch some big bang theory (love that show!).

toodles!

The show is awesome..even though the cig/ricin connection was a little over the top. It would have been cool had Jesse figured it out in Alaska. Thus making season 6

[SkinnyBenny]

Either way, the complete confusion that gripped most viewers after the ricin revalation/beating up Saul thing shows that it probably could've been pulled off a little better somehow. The fact that people have to argue about it for days means it didn't go off as it probably should have. I'm not saying dumb it down, and I don't know how I could've done it better because I'm not a brilliant TV writer (only a mediocre one). But it wasn't the best moment the show has ever seen, for sure.

I'll say it again BB dork, the show is quality. It's good. It's just not as good as people make it out to be. The symbolism and foreshadowing is not a new concept, but people like yourself are eating it up.

[Stevesie60]

Anyone who has watched season 4 recently wasn't confused. And you have to remember this happened only a few months ago to Jesse, not two years ago like it's been for the res of us.

[The Tonya Harding of Twitter Users Creep]

beat it, geeks.

So a show has to create new literary concepts to be really good?
