I love the fact that not only were Bryan Cranston and Anna Gunn both on Seinfeld, but the junkyard owner was fake Kramer.

don't forget to add Bob Odenkirk to the list

Wow! I had no idea all these people, aside from Bryan Cranston had been on Seinfeld at one time or another.

And I've been pondering lately the fact that Gus may have been gay :think:

Sow hat does everyone think of the beginning of the first episode? Usually a show will show the beginning and then not go back to it until the end of the show, kind of like a wrap up, but of course BB did not do this. I'm thinking it will wrap up the first half of this season. Didn't Walt have hair in it?

I think this is pretty clearly, now, the greatest tv show of all time. 15 episodes to go. I am worried about how the 8 episodes will effect the season. We are so used to a 13 episodes season, this time, and next season as well we only have 8. Im worried this will have a negative effect on the build and anxiety on the show. We have less episodes, so it will be harder for something like the crawl space scene to happen again, because that was all predicated on the idea of 4 years of episodes and it all falling apart in that scene. It wouldnt have worked otherwise.

Uh, yup...I think it's pretty clear, Gus was gay.

Read in an interview that the first 4 seasons cover a little over a year (of time in the show). If you remember right, the pilot episode was Walt's 50th birthday (and Skylar spelled out 50 in turkey bacon for his breakfast). This would mean that the opening scene of Season 5 is a bout a year in the future (from the explosion). I'm guessing we won't see that again until near the end of season 6 (I don't care what anyone says, it's season 6...it doesn't happen until next year )

"Sometimes when someone is thin, single and neat people assume they are gay because that is a stereotype."
Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Cranston so needs to get Jerry to do a cameo. Maybe as Walt's dentist...

I love that idea! I wouldn't put it past them..on one of the commentaries they said that they gave Lavell Crawford & Bill Burr roles just because they thought they're funny and they wanted them in there. Only problem...they probably can't afford Jerry, but that would be priceless.

Jerry should do that shit for free. He doesn't nee the money. That would seal the deal of Breaking bad as the greatest show of all time, if they could get Jerry to do a cameo. Either that or have Newman deliver Walt's mail one time.

The ketchup in the first scene made me hungry. :fp:

megatron

kick ass cajun made me laugh. i dunno about franch

had some audio problems in the beginning too, but luckily it fixed itself before the subtitled scene was thru...
and what the hell was that all about anyways?
the company that Gus got his lab equipment from? but what did the taste testing have to do with it?

crazy to think we're already 1/4 of the way thru the first part of Season 5
thinking there will be a lot of unanswered questions going into the second part of Season 5

Here's a Vince Gilligan interview that gives a little bit of the answer:

Great episode last night. Mike is the man. I love the transition from sock feet in recliner opening beer in front of TV, to stalking in Lydia's house. Multi-faceted character no joke.
