I thought this was the final season?I'm surprised nobody brought up Todds's jailhouse connects.
This might come into play next season when Walt finally decides to get rid of all the Legacy debts.
Very interested to see how this season plays out, and even more interested to see how Mike stays part of the operation.
I believe Mike gets killed before th end of this half season.
Ok, so I've seen this show brought up on NT for a while. Never watched it myself. Is it THAT good?
I'm a big fan of:
House, Dexter, OZ (R.I.P.), The Wire (R.I.P.), The Newsroom.
What do you think? Worth the watch?

No disrespect but I find it funny that people will go into a show thread and ask if it's worth watching
My notes ep. 6:
-Dinner scene was my favorite part
-fav qoute "im in the empire business"
-walt will use todd more as a hitman like he tried to do with jesse in perivous ep.
-jesse is becoming aware how col walt is becoming (listening to walt whistle rubbed him the wrong way)
-mike is getting soft now, becoming one of my least fav characters now
-dnt believe walt in the whole "i settled/sold out and lost billions," think that was another way of him manipulating jesse
-skylar needs to die already n marie, both sooooo annoying lol
-i miss the old skylar when she got on her knees and got busy with ted
gif need to be made of
"im in the empire business"
"u damn right"
jesse facial expression in the dinner scene
he Always act like that when he has the upper handWalt was calm and collective when Mike had the gun to his head.
A poster on Reddit made an excellent point/observation on why Walt is still selling. Not solely for power or the thrill....
Walt's speech about Grey Matter tied the entire series together, and I think that it will be a vital talking point when Walter White the character is discussed years down the line. Here's why.
In the scene with Jesse in his house, Walt basically put the final piece in a puzzle that the viewers didn't even realize the construction of. Now, for the first time since the show began, we truly know why Walt does what he does. For years, he had been embarrassed by his failure at Grey Matter, and his idiotic mistake of taking the $5000. This is something that has haunted him for his entire life (he checks Grey Matter's value weekly, apparently).
Now think back to the pilot. He and Hank watch the news report about Hank's bust. He sees piles upon piles of cash, more money than he could ever imagine making as a teacher. Now, we're made to believe that his first thought is of his family, but after tonight's episode, I think differently. I think his first thought is of his mistake at Grey Matter, and of the potential money that he could make cooking meth.
At first, of course, providing for his family was a big part of the plan. But at the end of the day, it all came back to his self-centered nature. He doesn't just want to make the $737k for Skyler and Walt Jr. For him, making the money is a way to prove that he hasn't wasted his life. He is using his chemistry skills in an incredibly profitable way.
So he keeps going. And going. And going. For a while in Season 3, he splits with Jesse, and what is it that gets him back in the business? His arrogance over Jesse cooking with his formula. At this point, it's no longer about providing for his family. It's about making money, proving to himself that he can be better than Elliott. More importantly, he's now seen Gustavo Fring. He's seen how far someone can go in the meth business. He's seen his ultimate goal.
Walter is a man who is primarily driven by jealousy and a desire to be better than others. This is prevalent in everything from his meth business to his marriage. In "Buyout", he revealed what's been driving his choices, his emotions, this whole time. His mistake at Grey Matter, and his potential loss of billions (with a "B") of dollars. I don't think Walt will be truly satisfied until he leads a meth empire that rivals Grey Matter in terms of worth. I'm planning on rewatching the series from the beginning, and I guarantee that little hints of this character aspect have been present from the beginning. Here's one you might remember, just off the top of my head.
"Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going into work? A business big enough that it could be listed on the NASDAQ goes belly up. Disappears! It ceases to exist without me."
-- Season 4, Episode 6, "Cornered"
Remind you of anything?

Feel like a scumbag. Only watched like the first 4 episodes of the first season then jumped right into the current season. Def gonna back track after the end of the first half of this season.
