Just finished Season 4. Holy Shit Balls, just when you think it couldn't get better they ramp it up another notch! I dunno how they'll top this for Season 5!

Damn I can't wait for this to start up. Best show on television far and away. I'm really curious as to what this season will be about.

Just placed my order for the season 4 BD this morning. Looking forward to re-watching it over the next month in anticipation of the new season.

Re: Does Breaking Bad ever get good?
um, this really isn't the thread for discussing Season 5 now is it?
Not sure if this post was intentionally a d-bag move or what, but for christ's sake use SPOILER caps!

It wasn't intentional. I'm fairly certain people have been discussing the show for the past 9 pages?

I just took it to be an image poster with all the meth and money surrounded by destruction. I certainly don't want to spoil anyone, so how do you see it tying to S4?
To me, it doesn't look like

That picture is beyond awesome! Should make a great cover the the eventually Blu/DVD release.

I see that starting tonight AMC is plowing through all 4 seasons before the July 15th premiere - but they're playing them at really weird, inconsistent times - 2-4 episodes a night. Tonight is the first 2 episodes beginning at 3:12am(e). Anyone who doesn't have the discs may want to dvr & marathon this...

Or if you really want to watch the series get Netflix. You can instant stream the first 3 seasons. I'm not sure if the last season is there yet. You can even get Netflix free for 2 weeks or 1 month. That should be the fastest way to watch the entire series.

I might actually try to pick this up where I gave up because it was boring the hell out of me to see if I feel differently now.
I quit right around the time when Jesse got his own place and was dating Krysten Ritter. I can't remember how many episodes into that season that I made it, so I'll probably start when they get to season 2. I can always FF past the really bad parts.
Summer tv is so vacant, especially with The Killing, Mad Men and Girls ending this week or next, that I'm willing to give this show another shot. Desperate, I know.

That said, I like Holder and Linden better than Walt and Jesse.

Re: Does Breaking Bad ever get good?
I'm finally making my way through Season 4, after watching the first few episodes live. Starting around episode 4 the season really takes off and I think this may be the most streamlined and cohesive season so far. I find myself pulling for Walt less and less, and still can't look away. Addictive as ever and no brutally slow rehab episodes or shitty Fly episode this season.
Instead where we had place holders last season, we got Zafiro Anejo.

If anyone is watching the Breaking Bad marathon right now on amc and hasn't seen the later seasons, be careful. Tonight, in between the end of one episode and the beginning of the next one, during a commercial for the BB marathon AMC gave away the ending of season 4.

No offense but can we avoid season 5 stuff(no matter how vague)?

Just finished Season 4. Wow. Good, good stuff. I'm not sure if they weren't sure if they were getting a final season or what, but that was almost a satisfying series finale.
I think this qualifies as the most cinematic show I've seen.
