I see Suki, the episode gets rated a 10. Seriously though, these past few episodes have been nothing short of fantastic.
Probably one of my favorite episodes of ATLA. Wouldn't mind a whole show (or at least more episodes) focusing on the adventures/hijinks of Zuko, Azula, Ty Lee, and Mai lmao.
I was hoping that in the last season, we'd be done with boring filler...
All right, now I see why people love Zuko so much lol.
The Skyler hate is ridiculous, I didn't even know there were idiots out there that blamed her for everything going wrong. In this exact episode, Skyler literally explains to Ted why it's important that he pays the IRS. If he doesn't, Ted, Skylar, and Walt WILL go to jail. There's literally no reason for Ted not to want to pay them, he just suddenly gains stupid last minute "morals" while he acts like it isn't his bullshit that got them into that mess. But of course, it's easier to blame the woman that's tried her absolute best to keep these two dumbass criminals from being caught and imprisoned.
I'm a little ashamed for it as I don't usually like to let my real life emotions affect my viewing experience, but I was very angry at Walt during the final scene...I swear he acts like Jesse's abusive dad every time they talk, always blowing up at him for the smallest mistake. Or when he doesn't do everything he says, exactly how he says it, even if it's impossible (like not poisoning a pot of food both he and his target are going to eat from). Meanwhile Jesse's going through a lot, mentally. Between Jane's death (that Walt caused), Gale's murder (which happened on Walt's orders), almost dying to a sniper, and now having to worry about preventing a huge war, Jesse's been through the ringer lately and Walt is just too - would "self-absorbed" be the right word? - something...to give him a damn break. I think I get it though, Walt's afraid of being killed and he put he last scrap of hope on Jesse poisoning Gus. But still.
I can see where Walking Dead 10x21 got it's episode idea from. As with that episode, apparently this is considered to be the worst episode of the show. And despite that, I personally really enjoyed it. I'm glad to see that some others do too.
I dunno, I prefer meaningful speeches like Walt talking about missing his "perfect moment to die" and good storytelling like Jesse talking about his Aunt and the (o)possum over an action-packed sequence, though of course there's a place for that too.
Goodness what a phenomenal and tense episode, I'm sweating lmao.
The second Ted was introduced, I knew where things were heading. I understand Skylar's perspective but basically saying that you're waiting for your husband to die to spare his son embarrassment (wouldn't be surprised if she really meant her embarrassment) is really messed up. I'm surprised I don't see anyone mentioning that, unless I misread something about the scene.
First she treats him like shit without letting him explain, then when he finally tells her the truth; that he did it to secure the family's entire future...she goes and fucks her boss. She is one of the few understandable characters I don't mind people bashing.
Seems I'm in the minority here, the ending gave me chills.
Lol I love Saul. I can see now why he has his own show (and possibly why that show seems to be more popular than Breaking Bad).
Absolutely loved the song at the beginning lol. Wish that could be the intro every time (a shorter TV version, of course).
I feel bad for Jesse lol. No matter what he does, Walt always ends up pissed at him.
I'm guessing this is the episode that unfortunately made people start hating Maggie
Beth sacrificed herself for this guy and they kill him off after a few episodes for shock value. Now that both she and Noah are dead, a good chunk of this season feels pointless. Tyreese's death is pointless too, since they only went to that place because of Noah.
Still...this was a very good episode. Showing "This is the beginning" in his notebook afterwards was absolutely perfect. I got chills seeing that.
Best episode so far, but Red John laughing on the phone at the end was cringy and turned him from a threatening, mysterious figure to a stereotypical cartoon villain. I could almost hear him twirling his mustache while he laughed.
Really? No comments about how fucked up that last scene was? Well...I guess it was a little silly.
My second time watching this show and I've been tearing up nonstop. The proof to me that something is good is when it makes me feel something even when I've already seen it. And these first few seasons of the show are definitely good.
The last 15 minutes saved this movie honestly.
