If you haven't seen it yet you're probably not going to.

Brilliant actor. It's hard to believe this is the same person who played Hal on Malcom in the Middle and Tim Whatley in Seinfeld.

I don't get how you haven't realized Walt is a badass yet? Unless you have a different definition for badass then everyone else.

I guess I expected it would get to the point where he wasn't nervous and scared all the time. I expected him to be more like Gus. Also, I think Mike is the biggest badass in the show thus far.

If that's the case then just wait.

Here is the final scene from Season 3 Full Measures.

With a pair of guns in his face he barely blinks he is so confident. I would say that is pretty bad ass.

He is already a badass at that point, but I'd say he takes it to a new level with about 4 episodes left in season 4

Well, he is 51 and doesnt work out...

Not to mention, just about EVERYTHING he did in Season 4 was towards his plan to kill Gus. And it all worked.

Just watched the episode last night - great ending with Walt shooting down all of Skylars ideas. Pretty sure she either needs to get on board or get whacked,

This show is way too intense!

My heart was pounding during the entire heist, and then how it ended with that kid was too much.

It almost feels like you're watching a movie every week as opposed to just a regular TV show, it is really amazing.

Absolutely amazing episode.

I haven't seen Game of Thrones (yet), but I'd say that Breaking Bad is winning the fight for the second best TV series ever (after The Wire, of course).

Love the line in next week's preview (or maybe it was from earlier and I missed it):
Jesse: "Are we in the meth business or the cash business"
Walt: "I'm in the empire building business"

Interesting how Walt is slowly becoming/replacing Gus. And Jesse is slowly becoming a mastermind in his own right.

Last night's episode was ridiculous. The preview for next week looks pretty intense, too. Are there 3 episodes left this half season?
