Is there an Otter writing for this show? I swear that NA meeting was like any of the dog threads in Other.

Must've missed that, actually was planning to re-watch the episode anyway since I was a bit droned the first time I watched it.

so now that Gus has to deal with the Feds on one front and the cartel on another, it's only a matter of time before Walt can get to him. Gotta be that way.

What boggles my mind the most is nobody has yet to make use of the ever-appreciated 'Skynet' moniker when referencing the one who should be killed off.

Are we waiting for the 2012 destruction?

You must have just started reading the threads if you haven't caught her being called Skynet before.

While Skeletor gets the biggest **** character on tv award, I think Walt Jr. is the most boring character in tv history. He's the definition of one dimensional. I hope they kill off the retard by the end of the season. Someone in Walts family needs to die.

I agree that Walt Jr. is pretty boring, but he doesn't get much screen time and is probably only the 8th most important character (at best) in the show with regards to storyline - so I don't think the character hinders the show in any substantial way. He's probably only had a total of 5 minutes screen time this season I think.

It would take real balls to kill him off as he's one of the few innocent characters on the show and he has Cerebral Palsy (no, he's not a "retard") to boot.

Walt Jr. is as dimensional as he needs to be for the show's purposes, I wouldn't say the writers dropped the ball in that area.

If anyone from Walt's family dies it needs to be Walt himself at the end of the series. I feel like anyone else would just be too tragic for the show to stabilize from.

Dude, not cool. And the actor himself has cerebral palsy. Stay classy...

Walt's idiocy is starting to get annoying, a few weeks ago, blaming Skymall for even mentioning the car wash, now buying a brand new car, then torching it, not worried about who may see the smoke or anything and then it's just all taken care of by Saul, seem a bit unbelievable for me. I know he's doing it to spite Skychunk and the dealer, but still totally wreckless. I guess he just must be thinking he will get caught or killed really soon.

Agreed with others of Jesse stealing the show in this episode.
I used to think that way too, but Walt is in a situation where he believes it's only a matter of time before he is killed. That kind of pressure, and not being able to do much about it, is driving him over the edge.

Every promo I saw for S4 kept emphasizing all the twists and turns that would occur. This is a great season, but I've yet to sell those twists and turns.

Still my favorite show on TV.
