- Slate.com Interview: A Conversation With Vince Gilligan
- Tim Goodman @ THR: Is Social Media the Enemy Of Greatness?
Lots of discussion of social media and analysis of BB in here along with some thoughts on Mad Men, The Wire, and The Sopranos.

Undoubtedly the silverfish were fucking her math skills up.
ted really fucked her brains out.
She definitely doesn't know how to launder 26 million dollars in ten lifetimes.

Well at least with this revelation Walt won't look so fucking bored again (though it was huge price to pay).

They mentioned on the podcast that it was something like $80 million that was supposed to be there.

One more Gilligan interview:
- Salon.com: "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan looks back -- and ahead to the last eight episodes
I can see his point to some extent - the amount of scrutiny that a show like BB undergoes these days is a little absurd. However, it's not as if the value of the any program changes the closer we examine it.

Good because I was going to start whining if you didn't note the irony of it.

Thought BB-GAF might like this
Same. I adore Skyler now.
I always wonder if the Sky haters are the people who saw the entire 3 / 4 seasons in a short time. 3 of my friends also 'hate' her (marathon the show) while other people that I know that saw it since it started to air never thought bad of her.
I imagine that seeing all the episodes quickly might make you dislike her more. It probably makes no sense (IT DOES IN MY HEAD) but yeah.
Sky <3

Any person that is in both Breaking Bad and The Larry Sanders Show is a god amongst men.

first of all, the "sky haters" is like the vast majority of people who watch this show if forums all across the internet/real life anecdotal evidence is anything to go by. So it's probably a ton of people from both categories.
SECONDLY, I watched from start and am the pioneer of the movement. I think it makes it worse if you watched from the front actually, because back when she was more annoying (earlier seasons), it festered between episodes. As opposed to marathonning where you don't have to think about it much and just keep watching.

Badger and Skinny Pete, they have to have one last appearance this season. They're always a treat.

I hate Seinfeld, but this is interesting.
Saul was stylin' back then.
Holy shit, Saul was straight up dashing.

Zombies are dead, man. What difference does it make what job they had when they was livin'.
God, I forgot all about that video game discussion they had. LOL.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I'm guessing that most of you who've never seen mid-90s Odenkirk have never seen Mr. Show. What a shame.
Really though, the guy has had some sort of role in a significant percentage of the comedic works worth a shit over the last twenty years or so. He's a genius.

Was watching 4.02.
Walt tells Mike 'we could be next' (referring to Gus killing them). He asks him if what he did to Victor was some sort of message.
Walt references that later in Hazard Pay. Also, Mike tells him 'you've got the job you wanted, you should be happy about that.'
And finally, Mike beats up Walter in the bar. He had his death coming, you don't fuck with Heisenberg twice!
edit:
haha, Skyler goes to Walt's house, he opens the door but only shows half his face to hide his black eye.
Foreshadowing Gus's death?

Could not have said it better.
Anyone here who enjoys Bob Odenkirk's work as Saul Goodman absolutely must check out The Larry Sanders Show, in which he plays a similarly recurrent role. To give you an idea, here is my TV Top 5 of all time in no particular order:
Breaking Bad
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Lost
Justified
The Larry Sanders Show

Wow. I knew Cranston and Odenkirk were Seinfeld alums, but not Skyler. Need to quick google who she played... and what a surprise. She was annoying then as she was in Deadwood and Breaking Bad.
Oh yeah, she was so annoying in Deadwood, I mean --
Oh no wait, I'm on Earth, not Dimension X.
