I never interpreted it as him crashing those planes on purpose. The possibility didn't even enter my mind

Is it not enough that the man’s daughter died and he returned to his high stress job too soon instead of grieving?

I’m still on the fence with Q. But I can’t help but throw it out there. They have that convo in the bar about children and parenthood, minutes later Walt watches the guy’s daughter die—he could have done something, I’m sure of it. Yes, certainly, he could have been distracted, but the planes crash and the first thing that hits the water is a child’s toy.

I think, on my second watch, this show isn’t as incredibly deep as I thought it was the first time, but it does have these good nuggets in it.

Watch The Sopranos, ST

I said I’d never watch Breaking Bad, so you never know.

Why are you so angry?

This show really suffers on the second viewing. It's a fun show, but it's also pretty overwrought and cringey at times. It's nowhere near as good as something like The Sopranos.

ST has never watched sopranos?

Think I’ll rewatch this

I've seen it like it three or four times. At the end of the day, it's basically a bad show with a few really good moments

Never a single episode. My wife started watching it a few months ago but we never sat and watched it together.

I once sold James Gandolfini a hat, that’s the closest I ever got.

I'll read Moby Dick if you watch the Sopranos

Who watches something a 3rd of 4th time when it's "a bad show"? haha. I'd think you'd have stopped at #2.

You are starting the Dick today.

Breaking Bad in context of starting just around the writers strike is important to consider; I just don’t really recall a show gripping me like it did at the time

There are other shows I like more but Breaking Bad is the most well shot, edited and directed show ever made. I can’t ever find a jump cut (bad edit) while watching it. Think of all the shows where it’s common to see something like an actor having his or her arms crossed in one shot and then arms are at their sides in the next shot. Or the actor’s facial expression changes significantly from one shot to the next, or they’re looking in a different direction. Some of the best shows ever made like The Sopranos and Mad Men are littered with jump cuts. This doesn’t happen on Breaking Bad. The expert vision, preparation and foresight it took to in order to have the show appear so seamless is really remarkable.

Yeah, that's really what separates great television from schlock. Arms stay folded

lol

Bahahahaha
