Breaking Bad

I cant wait. The show was slow to me at first, but these last two seasons have been really good.

How do you guys think it will end?
 
So many possibilities for how it ends. I've read several potential theories. Besides the whole Walter/Hank showdown, I think there almost has to be a Walter/Jesse showdown in some capacity. What's driving me nuts and has been since it last aired, is those nine months in between Hank sitting on the toilet and Walter eating in Denny's and getting the big gun. How does he get to Denny's?
 
Early teases don't bode well for Jesse. It has been laid out as Walter's story, so anyone's else future is a toss-up.
 
Never really got into the series, but Ozymandias is a terrific poem.
 
Let me guess, you watched the first episode and thought it was too slow.

That was my experience with The Wire, actually, but I finally tried that show out again after season-three and was ultimately blown (away) by it. Since then, I'm much more guarded against giving up on a show after the first episode or three.

In fact, I watched the entire first season of Breaking Bad after my sister implored me to do so, but I just never really found myself invested in any of the primary characters or their narratives. I've seen a smattering of episodes subsequent to the first season, but the only character that really captivated me was Bob Odenkirk's sleazy "Better Call Saul" litigator (largely, I'm sure, because I already loved him from Mr Show et cetera).

I think it's a solid show, so don't think I'm denigrating it; it just didn't hold my interest sufficiently to keep me watching past season-one. Moreover, I mostly just wanted to rep Ozymandias.

I implore you to at least finish season 2. I mean, season 1 is only 6 episodes long after all. You'll get a much better feel for the characters and setting in that season. Plus, things start to pick up a little more, especially in the first and last episodes.

Season 3, 4 and 5(so far) are where it's at though.
 
I think the show has gotten stronger every season. Kind of hard for me to claim a favorite season because there are so many fantastic episodes spread throughout. These last eight are supposedly balls to the walls.
