Though I do think that in defining season 4 as the "cool, action moment" season (as you seemed to be doing), you are missing the bigger picture. Season 4 was a hell of a lot more than that.

I agree with that. If you would read this thread, you'd see that I was defending season 4 each and every week from the mouthbreathers who complained about it, especially during the season's first half. I was characterizing as such because I underestimated you and was absolutely being condescending (though knowing that I underestimated you makes my disappointment even greater). |

Anyway, I didn't like "Fly." And it's not because I didn't understand what they were doing, it's because I thought it wasn't necessary at all to the show. I could have done without it. And nothing against season 3 (which was, of course, great on the whole), but I loved season 4. And it wasn't because I liked the "cool, action moments." It's because of the interaction between and development of characters like Gus, Walt, Jesse, Mike, and Hector. Not to mention the superb acting from those five (Cranston, IMO, did his best work in this season as he transitioned into being increasingly pathetic, paranoid, vindictive, and eventually villainous). |

Was I the only one who hated that Hank survived?

I never liked him. Well...I never liked his character. Which means that the breaking bad writers did their job. But the reason I wanted him dead was that I didn't want the Hank vs. Walt storyline to interfere with the Walt vs. Gus storyline. I didn't want Hank to be the one to catch Gus.

I think Jesse vs. Walt is important, but they kept showing us how important Walt's family is to him over the first few seasons. I don't think that it should end any other way than a Family Showdown.

You could argue Jesse has become just as important to Walt as any family member.

I'm into this show now thanks to netflix. But I just finished season 2 and I have to say,
possible spoiler - not really, but I don't know how to do that spoiler thing anyways. But how could one air traffic controller cause 2 planes to crash into each other? I mean really, he says the wrong thing and BAM they just crash right into each other? I would think that one out of the 4 pilots involved would notice another plane coming and do something and with all the security and stuff, they wouldn't account for any sort of human error? give me a break. Plus his wife is a freaking ****. |
