Crazy stuff...it feels like the series is about to end, can't imagine what they'll come up with for another 16 episodes. Guess that's why I'm not part of their writing team ha

Best hour in television ever.



The last 15 minutes will be legendary.

Re: Breaking Bad -- "Crawl Space" -- 9/25/11

What an incredible hour of television. Everything worked. There was this undeniable tension running through the episode that reached a boiling point with Walt's frantic visit to Saul's office. This honestly seems like the end of the show is approaching; I sort of wish we didn't know there was going to be another season since it would make things a lot more dramatic and tense.

I can't imagine what's going to go down in these final episodes. I mean, Hank's already been warned, so it's too late. Walt doesn't have any money, and the only person he could ask to borrow money from, Jesse, is unreachable. I'm glad they tied giving Ted the money back into the main storyline.

Giancarlo Esposito truly deserves an Emmy for his portrayal of Gus. I can't picture anyone on television in a supporting role rivaling his intensity.

Jesse and Walt were both fantastic this episode. It's great that they've taken Mike out of commission, but haven't killed him off. I love how everyone is blaming Walt for Hank's detective work, but Walt's done all he can to thwart Hank's investigation.

Agreed. His delivery was terrifying.

Equally chilling was Walt's breakdown at the end of the episode.

The way Gus said "What did you say to me?" was great.

Those last few minutes were insane. Walt's laughter was just creepy as hell.

Also, is Ted dead? I wasn't sure if he was injured badly or if that did him in...

Holy. Shit. This was the most intense episode yet. The direction, cinematography and editing were so fucking tight. The tension was just insane. Did anyone kinda have a feeling that Skyler was gonna get shot from behind when she was leaning over the crawl space. That was just so insane.

and.. Ted's dead, baby. Ted's dead.

He clearly broke his neck (there was an audible crack). Yes he's dead.

Well his fingers were twitching still, so he still could be alive.



But then they wouldn't be freaking out about it.

^ that was just his central nervous system still functioning shortly after death. Never heard of death twitch?

Walt's maniacal laughter at the background with Skyler on the phone reminded me of The Joker.

I should commend GianCarlo Esposito's consistently magnificent performance personally...he's currently filming in Vancouver right now and goes to the same yoga studio that I go to.

Re: Breaking Bad -- "Crawl Space" -- 9/25/11

Yeah, if he was dead why didn't they come out and just say it. His twitching fingers seemed to indicate (to me at least) that he was still alive. May they had to take him to the hospital or something...Or maybe I'm just wrong and he is dead.

That was an amazing hour. I agree that with the previous poster who said he doesn't know how this could go a whole 16 episodes more next season.

Does anyone remember how much money Walt should have? How much did he tell his daughter he had in that one scene, season 2 I think. I didn't think that Skylab giving away $600,000+ would put that big a dent in their cache. Saul said it would take at least half a million for the whole family. Walt had to have had over a million, right?

Has there been a TV character more physically abused (either by others or things like his car "accident") on a regular basis than Walt?

I suppose after buying the carwash in full, along with Walt Jr.'s car, on top of Walt's cancer related payments, Hank's medical bills, along with paying for a house and an apartment, and all the normal bills & expenses, they could be a little low.

It may be tough to get him in the category when Aaron Paul is considered supporting actor. Can't they put him as guest actor or something like they did with John Lithgow for Dexter.

I just hope they don't forget about this show come Emmy time, considering it will have been almost a year since the showed ran the next time the Emmys air.

I don't watch Mad Men, but was this episode better than "The Suitcase" episode I keep hearing was so great?

Duh, yeah...I forgot about all the stuff. And they actually had to pay for 2 cars for Walt Jr. since he couldn't return the one he blew up.

Just another quick note...Gus employs a full medical team in Mexico? I wonder what he uses them for the rest of the time.

True, I forgot about the car wash. And Gus is probably stiffing Walt when it comes to paying him for his services...

I admittedly don't watch as much TV as a lot of people, but that was quite possibly the tensest, most chilling episode of a television show I've ever seen.

What? They were operating out of a warehouse. They obviously traveled there as part of the plan.

I don't know how they keep topping themselves episode after episode. Remarkable episode tonight, and there's 2 more to go this season!
