Dude looked like a homeless guy for most it. Like how he put his old clothes on. No idea where he got them but it was still awesome.
Hank and gomie never told anyone about Jesse, the DEA never knew Jesse turned snitch.
Remember how Walt got Jack too help with the 9 hits in jail? Stung his pride. "It can be done, the only question is: are you the man to do it?"
He'll have all the go-karts and roombas he could ever want in prison.
Marie would have told them about Jesse, by this point. She has no reason to protect him.

#TeamWalt is a strange bunch
Or he's just a moron and doesn't understand what is going on.

I would say:
Ozymandias (best episode in the show as far as I'm concerned)
Confessions
Buried
Granite Slate
Tohajilee
(tI would rank these as 'top twenty' material for perspective)
Felina
Blood Money
Rabid Dog.
I'm still not sure how I feel about Felina; it was a very good episode, shot very well, neatly wrapping up the remainder of the storylines, and it with some excellent moments. It was very enjoyable but I think I'll need to dwell on it further before conclusively deciding what I think of it.
EDIT: Oh also I loved Todd's final line and Lydia's complete lack of care for him as she doesn't even recognise (remember is probably a more fitting word) his voice.
EDIT: Season wise:
Seaspon 5 Part 2 > Season 4 > Season 2 > Season 3 > Season 1 > Season 5 Part 1
I'm still unsure if I'd place Season 5 Part 2 ahead of Season 4 or not however.
Nothing quite like a martyr to rally behind. Now he can truly ascend to be our deity.
The whole, "the cops are watching your place, they know Walt is in town" ended up being nothing more than a way to have Marie on screen, and ultimately setup the reveal that Walt was already there. The impact of that shot can't happen without some kind of setup first.

Yeah, Rabid Dog was my least favorite. Probably my least favorite in the whole series, along with the one where Jesse falls in poop.
natural sweetener that isn't sugar nothing special
Jessie finds and buys high priced cars.

In my imaginary extended finale, Jesse's reckless escape results in his car careening off the road and into a tree, killing him instantly.

Perhaps they exist in a world were every other person's avatar isn't a walter white picture so he isn't as recognizable as he would be to you or me. Just spit balling here.
He got the full on redemptive ending The man died like the Jesus Christ he is.
The only thing he failed to do is
let Huell out of that room
I remember before Stevia was approved by the FDA there was all this internet hype about how it's this completely great, natural sweetener that's just as good as sugar -- BUT THE FDA WON'T APPROIVE IT because they've been bought out by those evil billionaires of the sugar-industrial complex.
Then stevia gets approved and it turns out it's just another weird fucking sweetener with a strange aftertaste that is nowhere near as good as sugar.
No Dead Freight?

That need for speed trailer was such a piece of shit. That music and corny ass monologue
I hope Aaron Paul has something else lined up because I'm not watching that crappy fast and furious wannabe

Let's face it, Jesse is his real son.
I thought the ending was a little safe, but at the same time, this was like a 55 hour movie. You can't follow three act structures every 47 (or however) minute period, it just doesn't work.
I think if you include the last ep then you get the classic, "all is lost" moment.
My only beef is Walt's victory is so complete, and he basically gets everything he wanted. Gillian talks about trying to flip the audience back to Walt's perspective after turning him so evil, but I kind of like evil Walt. I almost wanted him to succeed totally, to get away with everything, but for Jesse, Jr., and Skylar to die. That would have had him wearing the proverbial crown of thorns in his own personal hell.
But I guess this works too. It was a very safe ending, all the plots were wrapped up nicely.

I can't be the only person that thought for a second that Jesse was going to hit walt with the car, right? When he's backing up Walt is right in the mirror and then is goes past him again.

Well, it was a good ending overall. They gave closure to all of the significant story lines and it was nice seeing justice served - especially to Lydia. I have to wonder, though, if there were any alternate endings. I was expecting to be shocked, but that just would have angered people who wanted the nice ending.

I thought so too to be honest. It got me for a second.

Nah, it's definitely edited to make you think that's going to happen for a split second.
He is in the new Ridley Scott movie I think.
That's just 5b. Dead Freight is one of my top ten though.
Hank and Gomez were so closely monitoring Jesse at that point that Jesse was living in Marie's house. He was basically constantly with them or within their range of surveillance, working with them on the Heisenberg case. There is no way he goes missing at the same time they do and she doesn't make the conclusion that the guy who was constantly with them in the days leading up to their disappearance was with them when they disappeared.
And if, somehow, she doesn't make that link, her home is ransacked shortly aft her husband's disappearance/death, and evidence only Marie, Hank, Gomez, and Jesse could possibly know exists (as Marie saw them setting up to record Jesse's confession) disappears. There's just no way Jesse doesn't look shady as fuck, from the outside.
It felt like I was really playing Call of Duty
Way better than COD breh.

walt dying in his car after saying "just get me home.. ill take care of the rest" would have been better
Jesse saw the wound. He knew Walt was alreadydead.gif
I think the only thing I was disappointed about with Breaking Bad is we never got a complete and full picture regarding Gus and his back story. A prequel involving his rise to prominence just seems more interesting and easier to pull off to me. Plus I just see Gus as a character who can carry a series more so than Saul.
