    Loved this breakdown and the previous ones you‘ve done! Really great
    I get your point about having more space and time to explore the ramifications of different decisions/events in S5, but I think the fact that there’s less and less time for that stuff contributes to the overall feeling of accelerating tension and unease that this show achieved so well
    But then again these writers are so good that they probably could have figured out a way to give those things more time without letting up on the mounting tension, so you definitely have a point

    It's crazy to me, but I've heard a few people say that Season 5 (especially 5A) doesn't connect with them, because of how strong Season 4 is and how iconic Fring was for the show. Specifically, I've heard that 5A described as boring. I disagree with that, to say the least. Thank you again for these great breakdowns, and thank you for appreciating Season 5 for the masterpiece that it is.

    The final straw that broke the camel's back for me with walt is when when he not only was okay with todd killing a kid with 0 remorse and then was damn near whistling F'ing dixie while disposing of the body. Everything after that i.e. killing mike and going into buisness with neo nazi was just added hatred toward him. After that i was a okay with him dying and part of me kinda wanted to see him die in prison alone sans family.

    I only recently was able to watch breaking bad. So glad I did it was pretty painful in some areas, some early seasons hit a little too close to home but it ended in a great way that felt logical and grounded. Most of the madness and just brutal consequences tied to that lifestyle were very accurate.

    I love how this season completes Walter being the villain and seeing him pay the price for cooking meth. He lost everything his family his friends and his empire and he has no one who's going to mourne him. Even though he left Walt Jr with money the damage he did to him and everybody else will never make up for it. I love how they have hank finding it out it was Walt cause his ego couldn't let someone else get credit for his work. Hank is one of the mvp of this season

    This and Season 4 are PEAK Breaking Bad and how to do Great Television. Love the first half of this season and the way they set up the downfall of Heisenberg and his Empire. Say My Name is one of the best scenes and episodes of the series. Mike is one of the best characters of the BadVerse and Banks is so great in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul and it's sad seeing him go out like that but still a great death. Love the way this first half sets up the tragedy coming and having Walt and Jesse try to take over the Drug Cartel which goes downfall without Gus. Loving seeing great new characters like Meth Damon and his Nazi uncles doing a great job at following up an amazing Villain like Gus. The Ending of this first half is awesome sets up the Endgame of the series. Amazing first half of the final season that sets everything flawlessly and the second half takes it to another level. Can't wait to see you review the second half and talk about Ozymandias The Greatest TV Episode Of All Time.

    I'm glad you talked too much because this season does deserve 2 separate reviews for the front 8 and back 8 episodes.
    A+ all around, I remember the creators saying, regarding ending after only 5 seasons, that they wanted people to say,
    "Gosh, I'm sad that show is over!"
    instead of
    "What? B Bad is STILL going?"
    I admire that approach of serving the story and going out on top rather than milking it for 3 more seasons

    This first half of a season is excellent. It handles the difficult task of introducing, like, three great new characters and a couple different factions pretty much flawlessly. Todd, for example, is so fascinatingly sociopathic and terrifying in his initially hokey, non-violent nature and Jesse Plemons makes the character so sickening and genuinely evil. The entire arc of this season and seeing Walt completely descend into evil and making the most fatal of mistakes for both himself and others is some of the most compelling stuff he does in the show, as well as his situation in the final episodes where he's in the worst place he's ever been in his entire life. The shenanigans with Walt, Jesse, and Mike are a lot of fun, especially the train sequence. Every single character conclusion felt earned, with Hank and Mike dying because of Walt's errors, Skyler and Flynn being secure with Walt's money, even without their knowledge, Todd being killed by Jesse after all of his horrible actions, the Neo Nazis being taken out by Walt, and Saul getting a way out because of his connections, even though Better Call Saul added a much better conclusion for him. It's just an incredible season with some incredibly tragic moments throughout.
