I think he has to be dead or else the season four premiere will show Mike putting Walt and Jesse out to pasture.

Id like to see Walt and Gus forced to team up to take on the Cartel since otherwise theyd both be taken out. Could add a ton of tension and make for an interesting story line.

lol at the "he didn't shoot him" theory. You misread the scene, nothing else to say other than watch it again. The camera moves, not Jesse. He shot the poor guy.

The moment Walt said "I'll give you Jesse", I seriously cringed. Not that Walt wasn't despicable already, but right there and then I thought just how goddamn despicable is this guy really.
When I realized he was playing Mike I was quite relieved. That would have been.. just wow.

Great finale. Fantastic season. Tons of possibilities. It's going to be a looong wait.


Quote of the episode: "We have nowhere to go but up." -Walter White.

And please, give Aaron Paul the Emmy already!

I finally caught up and finishead season 3 last night. What a roller coaster of a ride.

When Walt says

[Show spoiler] the address of gale, the reaction of Mike's face, was priceless

Love the show, recommend it to all my friends. March is so far away. Thankfully Entourage , Dexter, and Californication should help me thru.

Gale had really good taste in music. I think that's why he was killed off. Definitely another reason why Gilligan and crew have balls the size of bison. They showed Gale watering his plants and singing along to his records for like, what, 90 seconds straight. That's an eternity on a television show. I love it.

It's not like 99.9% of Breaking Bad viewers have any idea wtf Gale was singing along to either. Myself definitely included but somehow he was so odd, it made what he was doing interesting.

Ya, that whole scene was brilliant and so tense!

Isn't the Season 3 Encore supposed to start on July 25th? Why isn't it showing up on the listings?

I haven't heard anything about the encore. But I'll see what I can find...

[hardtosayx]

They had posted something on Facebook about it not long ago. But I guess they decided not to after all There's tons of comments on the page about it supposed to be airing tonight, or last night not sure and it never happened.

I'd watch it online or itunes but it slows down way too much

I just finished watching season 3 today. I started watching Breaking Bad shortly after the 2nd season had aired on TV then watched them again a 2nd time on bluray a couple of weeks ago before finally watching season 3.

A lot of very intense moments especially Hank's showdown with the cousins, I was sure he was a goner and of course the season finale.

"Your boss is going to need me"
"Why?" **click**
"63.. 53 Juan Tabo... Yeah"

Can't wait for season 4!

Well considering that they have nearly a year between seasons and if history shows us anything, AMC will not rerun season 3 until the marathon right before season 4 premieres. Season 1 ran the week before season 2 began, seasons 1 and 2 ran the weekend 3 started so I'd assume you won't get repeats for another 8 or 9 months at the earliest.

I guess I'll be watching online then. Not sure why they'd say they're gonna air an encore and then not. I knew I wasn't crazy when I read other people asking why they weren't airing it.

Yeah I have absolutely no idea, since I never saw this mentioned but it sure doesn't seem like something AMC would do...

Breaking: Bad news for "Breaking Bad". No season 4 until July 2011

Breaking Bad will not return for its fourth season until July 2011, and as a result will not be eligible for next year’s Emmy Awards. So if Bryan Cranston repeats for best drama actor this year, he will not get a shot at a shot at a three-peat four-peat (oops, he has already won the last two, so if he wins at the end of the month he will have three-peated).

AMC plans to put up mini-episodes on the Web early next year to bridge the gap. Um…okay, good luck with that.

I’m not sure of the reasoning for the longer-than-normal break, and I’m trying to find out. I’m sure fans won’t like it or think it’s a good idea. One guess is that between picking up a couple of new originals (Walking Dead and now The Killing) there is just the need for some schedule maneuvering.

Another guess, and one that seems more likely to me is that AMC wants to see what happens with Breaking Bad’s ratings if it airs the show during the less competitive summer months instead of up against Sunday broadcast originals. While Breaking Bad hasn’t drawn as many viewers as Mad Men, it has done as well with the ad-centric adults 18-49 ratings.

Perhaps AMC will go for packing a powerful Emmy punch by pairing Mad Men and Breaking Bad together making Sunday nights in the summer both a joy and a pain in the ass for the likes of Alan Sepinwall.

Okay I just started this series so I havent read anything on prior pages...

I am on the 5th show of season 1 now and really enjoying it, much darker than I thought it would be. If I am just watching the weekly episodes am I missing anything in these mini-episodes? What are they all about?
