I had a change of heart after my second pass through the entire series.
I think people tend to be supremely dismissive about the position she's been in.

Anna Gunn had a great insight on the character. Her flaw is she is smart but thinks she's smarter than is possible. Not all problems can be rationalized or completely comprehended.

Hard to believe she was one of Seinfield's early dates on the show, and was Sheriff Justified's wife on Deadwood. She's now firmly, for better or worse, Schyler.

yeah. She still just cares because of the money and because of the risk of HER going to jail. She's no better than any of the other selfish characters in this show.

A short time later, Huel and the other guy are in the storage facility. The facility (IIRC) is fairly well-lit and the shot allows you to see that each storage area has an open top (covered with what appeared to be chicken wire). When Huel and friend enter the locker, the room is completely dark.

There were others, but those should suffice as a starter. It didn't detract from the episode at all, but it seemed lazy.

On a more-interesting note, it appears Skyler is going to die. We've seen Walt arranging the bacon for his birthday (as Skyler would do) and Sklyer was wearing a light-pink shirt.

Now I have to rewatch. Wouldn't kill the show for me, but it does seem lazy to overlook simple stuff like that.

I think everyone is going to be dead.

When you said "continuity errors", I thought you were gonna bring up plot holes or something. Those seem like pretty minor production/editing gaffes to me.

They are. But for a show this good with this much detail to the little things, it's disappointing. I saw these on my first watch, so I'm not sure how they missed them on their side.

It could be that by the time they saw them, it was too late.

What if they were intentional and have some sorta weird symbolism?!?

I'd love it; it'd be payoff for paying attention.

The sound editing on some of the scenes last night blew goats.

Yeah, she's dead. Also dead is that kid with the remote control car outside of Hank's house. Dead.

Why did Walt put the $ in a place that would be ****ing difficult to retrieve it if needed? Yeah, its well-hidden from the cops, but there's also about no way for him or Skyler to get it out of there. Even getting SOME of it would be a huge PITA.

I don't see why he couldn't have just taken it to a different storage facility, used a fake name, paid cash in advance, etc. Or spread it out around town or something.
