I still think "Six Feet Under" is the best television show, but I will grant you that it's probably the best show currently on TV. <g> BTW, can you believe that originally Jesse was to be killed off during the first season? It's hard to imagine the show without him!

The dialogue was full of interesting insights behind the show. Since NPR seems to archive a lot material, you may still be able to find it online.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan I thought the season 4 opener was incredible. This is the kind of series that it's fun to re-watch an episode, and focus on a different character in the various scenes and how that actor plays the scene, even when they aren't the central focus. I'd love a series to spin off featuring Saul Goodman. He's the icing on the cake of this great show.
Originally Posted By DDMAN26 I'm still on season 2, have to watch the last three episodes of that tonight. And since we have the heat wave coming, Wednesday and Thursday I can hopefully crank out a majority of season 3 after work. And then finish it off on Saturday, watch the premiere of Season 4 Sunday morning on the DVR and then I'll be ready to talk.
Originally Posted By JenniBarra I've told my husband before that I don't like to watch the show too close to bedtime due to its intensity. Well, somehow I let him get away with not waiting until the next day to watch it - big mistake! Even he couldn't watch the scene when Gus comes into the lab. (BTW, forget Tuco, I think Gus is the scariest character on that show!)
Originally Posted By DDMAN26 So I'm finally caught up. And ever accolade you can think of I will apply to this show. First up the acting, there isn't really a weak link in the cast. Everyone brings something to the table. Cranston and Paul deserved every awards they have gotten. And I love the other characters, Gus(how creepy was he last week) Mike, Saul are great. I hope Hank gets back to being the loudmouth goofball. Walt Jr. does the actor really have CP or is he acting. Either way he does great. I don't know if I'm completely thrilled with Skyler or Marie, especially with Marie I usually find her a little boring. And I hope that this season we still get some more of Badger and Skinny Pete those guys cracked me up. Which leads me to the next point of the show is just how darkly funny it is. I mean come on both Walter and Jesse wearing the same Kenny Rogers t-shirt in diner, I was howling with laughter. Or in Season 2 when Jesse picked up Walt at the airport in RV. Moments like that make the show for me. It is such an addicting(no pun intended)show that I'm a little disappointed I will now have to wait a week to find out what happens next. Also Direct TV doesn't offer AMC in HD so I'm little disappointed that have to watch it in SD but that's just a small nitpick.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan Glad you're enjoying it as much as I have been, DD! I loved last week when Walt still had the size tag on the Kenny Rogers shirt. And the episode from I think last season, with the pizza on the roof of the garage. LOL, who thinks of something like that to add to the script?
Originally Posted By DDMAN26 Loved last night though interesting that there was very little Walt. Though I did like his interaction with Mike, I always liked that actor that plays Mike. I do hope that Hank comes around and they don't turn him into a complete jerk. Aaron Paul was great again last night (if his name ever comes up for a big tentpole film, I will applaud that choice because the guy can act. And bravo for the return of Badger and Skinny Pete.

Originally Posted By DDMAN26 Yesterday was an oddly structured show but again still good. Anytime we get Mike involved it's always good, always liked that actor. And just how out of it is Jesse when he didn't even panic about the money. Lol at Walt and Skyler going over their "script"
