Hey! Thanks so much for the SuperThanks, it comes at a great time for me as I'm dealing with some technical setbacks for my latest project so it's much appreciated 💪🏻 Take a pinned comment for a while as my thanks to you
It's not even an exaggeration really. I genuinely think that Tuco's perception of Walter's insanity was the only reason he let him walk out of there with his respect.
Tuco is the kind of person I wouldn't want to meet, on a crowded street, in the day time. And on the other very, VERY, far end we have Jessy Eisenberg playing Lex Luther in Dawn Of Justice(?). Least threatening villain ever.
@@dsandoval9396 I could be wrong, but I believe meating anyone in public is #1 uncalled for and #2 illegal. Leave public meating to vermin and ungulates.
@@robertmaybeth3434 yeah but he murdered victor because he was seen at the crime scene, it actually probably has nothing to do with “him cooking inferior meth”.
Every few years I get the urge to rewatch Breaking Bad, but it's 5 whole seasons. Watching clips on Y T doesn't quite scratch the itch. This does. Well done.
Better Call Saul season 6 is coming out soon, do you think you will have the same feeling towards rewatching it, like personally i really could rewatch the seasons where Chuck, is still alive, because he was one of the best parts of the show for me.
you see all of Breaking Bad is actually a fanfiction written by Mr. White's students. He never tells them anything about his personal life so they just made stuff up and eventually it went totally off the rails.
@@AlienZizi you see, the secret end-of-credits scene on the last episode shows a bunch of the students reading out their fanfic at lunch in Mr. White's room when he walks in unexpectedly and asks to know what they're writing. The entire show is just them telling him what they wrote
@@martian1575 Ok, I haven't watched breaking bad, and I don't want to watch breaking bad because it's very heavy, a little too heavy for me to handle. So be honest with me please, does that really happen or are you just joking?
@@soulbounddoll1826 hes just joking. it would be a hilarious way to close out a several year running dark show though, but I doubt it could be done without major backlash.
18:00 the reason why walt punched the paper dispenser in the toilet is because he was angry that he might actually live. He has done terrible things, he wanted to get money for the family and die. The longer he lives, the more damage he caused.
He was also very angry at himself because he could not justify his selfish actions anymore with his cancer. He had now to admit for the first time that he really enjoys being in the meth business and does it more for himself and the thrill of it than his family
The whole plan only works if he's going out on his shield. Now he's just a criminal who had a period of health issues. Can totally show up to a trial and go to prison. Gosh I so remember when this was all speculation. This is exactly like the conversations we had when it was airing. I almost prefer not knowing what is going to happen to Walt. That's how intriguing they made the journey. Nobody really wondered how it was going to end, we just wanted to see what would happen NEXT. Perfect writing.
Not really. Walt never cared for the things he had done. He used his cancer as an excuse to cook meth and earn money for his family. With his cancer being gone, he had no excuse to cook meth anymore. After that, he only did it for himself. Thats why he punched it. Not because he thought he was doing terrible things.
Actually seeing walters life before the meth makes me sad, after I love his confidence it’s just hard not to. Like what an amazing way to play a character, so many developments were made for many different characters.
He showed how mundane life can drive a person down especially when had such big plans as a youth like Walt. The excitement really gave him something to live for, the cancer was kinda like a metaphor of his feelings towards life.
The cut back to Walt calling Skyler talking about hollys name and how they should go on a trip that weekend then it fades into the beginning of ozymandis 😕
It astonishes me on how a show with so many drug dealers and lunatics managed to make us hate a pregnant woman with family problems more than anything.
@@jamsya493 Thanks for succinctly explaining that the hatred for Skylar is rooted in misogynistic bullshit. You literally couldn't have put it better. Serious answer time: If you actually watched the show, you'll notice that Walter got an offer from his former colleagues/friends to pay off his medical bills VERY early on. It was a genuine offer, with no strings attached. He got into the drug trade after he turned them down for no other reason than pride. He did it for himself. He literally says it in the end, "I did it for me. I liked it." The writers make sure to make it VERY clear that Walter is not under any kind of REAL pressure to keep cooking drugs to get his family out of bankruptcy, that it's all his desire to feel important. It's kind of a major point. (Smh, fake fanboys...) Skylar's reaction in season 2 is in fact the reasonable way to react to your life partner lying to your face and gaslighting you. If you think she was being a 'bitch', please be sure to tell your take on this to any women in your life who know Breaking Bad, so they know to stay away from you.
I gotta love the way the script of the show described those final minutes of Walt. To quote: "We look straight down on Walt, as he tumbles into frame, lying flat on his back on the floor. His eyes stare up at us, lifeless. And yet, his final expression is one of faint satisfaction. Police officers approach him now. Four, six, eight of them. They approach him carefully, their guns drawn and aimed. But they're too late. He got away" What a perfect way to just summarize the final shot of the show.
@@jiodesu Yes. It isn't Breaking Bad 2, but is the conclusion where ALL the loose ends get solved. It is not gonna bring anything new to table, but it will conclude Jesse, Badger and Skinny Pete story. It is more of an epilogue than a movie with a new Breaking Bad arch
40:00 This is wrong, Gus killed Victor because Victor’s face was seen at Gale’s murder scene, not because he was wasting meth materials. It also did double down as an intimidation tactic for Jesse and Walter.
While the clarification satisfies those of us who have seen the show, too many people are watching this without seeing the actual show and shouldnt have everything explicitly said maybe
Out of all the atrocities we are forced to witness throughout this show, in my opinion, nothing comes even close to Jesse watching Todd execute Andrea. Everytime i see this moment its so ridiculously gut wrenching, it almost feels like they went too far in that instance. Its so absurdly evil, and so phenomenally acted by Aaron Paul, his muffled screams are unmatched by anything like it.
Gus killed Victor because Victor stupidly got spotted at the scene of Gail's murder. Later on, when the DEA brings Gus in for questioning, it shows a sketch of Victor hanging on the wall of the police dept.
@@JessicaGarcia-xf9wr I forget if it was Gus or Mike, but they specifically ask Victor ---- if my memory serves me "was the kid seen?" and he nods no, and then he asks "Were you?" and he just gives a facial expression like yeah shit
He was stated to be a "bystander" in the sketch though, I don't think he was a suspect but rather no one in the building knew him. Just like he himself said, he was just another bystander
39:55 I think the biggest reason that Gus killed Victor is what Walter brought up later on in the series --- Victor's action of learning how to cook was out of his place. Gus's empire consists of two major components: the knowledge behind making the product; and the brute force to secure and sell it. It was never Victor's job to cook meth for Gus but rather be the security force and part of the distribution process whereas Walter and Gale are cooks that should not have any connections to Gus's dealers. As a ruler, it's better to divide your subordinates with different skillsets, best if they are not aware of each other's existence. Because once Victor, a distributor and hitman, truly grasps the science behind the cooking, he can get rid of Gus whenever he pleases. This is demonstrated later on in the series as well. Once Todd's gang knows how to reliably produce the blue meth, they had no problem killing Walter. In a volatile organization such as this, having knowledge makes you an asset, having too much knowledge truly makes you a threat to the top dog and effectively a death sentence for yourself. This reminds me of Ancient China, namely the Qing Dynasty, princes and other royalties were stranded in the capital and not allowed to meet with major local authorities such as governors and generals.
you make a good couple of points, but as far as I remember, Victor also checks to see if Gale is dead, right? I think another big reason for killing Victor was that some people saw him and the police got an accurate description of his face, so police finding and following Victor was just too big of a risk for Gus to take, thus he had to get rid of him.
@@alexandertheok9610 but wait, was gus aware that victor was seen at that point? as far as i remember, vic told mike, and all they said to gus was that they had walt jesse and that gale was dead. maybe he asumed vic would be seen or maybe we could asume that they did mention it to gus, but then it would make victor's confidence while gus is present super weird, unless vic was just THAT convinced that his loyalty would save him. idk tho, that sussy look gus gave when he spotted the drawing of vic might signal that he did suspect it.
Thank you very much, the recent surge in subscribers because of this video has inspired me to make more big projects like this, I'm currently editing a video covering both 28 days / weeks later and then I'm going to cover the entire first series of Squid Game.
@@Howesenberg i personally havent gotten around to seeing those, but im happy someone as Talented as you keep working on projects you like. I gave up on my channel long ago, seeing you happy and hopeful, has just now, 5 minutes later made me think about something emjoyable i can do to get a true starting point in a TH-cam career. I wish you the best of luck man :)
It can be a disheartening journey but ultimately if you do it because you're passionate you'll succeed just from knowing you made something you'd enjoy watching yourself, it's a lesson I've only just learned this year after a few failed channel attempts. Thank you for the support and best of luck to you too!
He punched the towel dispenser because he fully planned on dying and when he found out it wouldn’t he felt himself stuck in a hole. That’s what I’ve always taken from it
Walt wanted to die as the Man that provided for his family, only him. He wanted to die before anyone would suspect his crimes. Walt's Pride meant he refused to accept any help.
All of Walter’s actions up to that point were internally justified by the fact that he would die in a couple months anyways. Knowing that he would actually continue to live made him realize that he would have to suffer the consequences of his drug lord lifestyle. I recall later on in the show that Walter said he wish he would have died by cancer in order to make himself seem like a selfless hero.
The reason the taped confession never comes back up is that it's not meant as a way to eliminate Hank, but to blackmail him into silence. It's a tool to ensure that if Walt goes down, he will take Hank with him, and as long as Hank doesn't turn him in, he won't release it. Hank needs Jesse and the buried money to prove that Walt was the mastermind behind the operation.
Todd is definitely a psychopath Killed a kid with no hesitation, when even the most dangerous and lunatic drug dealers were doubtful about it Came up with the most terrifying and painful way of torturing Jesse instead of just killing him, instead making him go insane from the deaths of his close ones
I don’t think he was the one who wanted Jesse tortured. He wasn’t sadistic, but he was very much a psychopath. He simply wanted to cook meth for the Neonazi guy and went about making decisions with 0 regard for empathy
You forgot to mention one of the best scenes in the show at the very end when Walter sees skylar and his family one last time and admits to both his family and himself that all his actions wasn’t for his family but for his own selfish and greedy needs. Gold writing right there
Thank you so much for creating this. I suffered from a severe Traumatic Brain Injury years ago and have wanted to see this again since I got back from the hospital.
1:15:10 that shot of jesse under the car is by far the scariest thing in this entire show. even worse when you know he’s getting dragged out to be tortured and enslaved instead of simply being killed
Mostly on-point. However, Don Margolis, Jane’s father, didn’t crash two planes together intentionally. He returned to work far too soon, to an extremely high stress, high stakes job, and wasn’t able to concentrate effectively or keep his eyes from tearing up or clouding over or whatever. The horrendous crash was unmistakably an accident, and a beautiful piece of acting as well.
Yeah, he didn't notice that Wayfarer 515 and the other plane were on crash course, also when he calls JM21 he messes up phonetic alphabet and says Jane Mike 21 instead of Juliett Mike 21.
I am a fucking alfa, or so you say bich, I can see this show and say relateble, becase my dad sold meth for a liveing, robert parker, cape mo, meth lord, big time shit
I never tire of rewatching Gus' death scene. Everything from him slowly realizing what's about to transpire, his shocked, desperate, almost primal scream so unlike his usual calm demeanor, the way he walks out the room, seemingly unharmed, only for the camera to pan and reveal the true extension of the damage done to him before he collapses to the floor. Just... masterful. This single scene was worth watching Breaking Bad for me, the thing is, it's not the only high caliber scene in the show. Far from it.
The Fly episode is the same as Tony’s first fever dream episode in The Sopranos. It divided fans, but at a deeper look, it showed more about the inner workings of the protagonist than any episodes before it.
A lot more happens in the fever dream episode in Sopranos, because he kills Big Pussy, in the same episode, but I’m on season three, and man i miss pussy still love the show though.
@@Dylandontplay I mean yeah Sopranos, gets a full 5 stars but they are both amazing shows i love them equally, but Sopranos, does get me cracking the hell up more.
I'm not sure if anyone has said this already but I finally understand why Jessie comes to the conclusion that Huell lifted the Ricin off of Jesse. As Jesse is waiting to be picked up, he realizes the dope he brought with him is gone. This is mentioned by Saul when Jesse attacks him saying, "I had Huell lift your dope. I told you I couldn't risk the guy not taking you." So Jesse puts it together that if Huell could swipe the dope off of him, he could have done the same with the Ricin. Now I will agree its still a leap for him to come up with that, but I don't think it's completely out of the blue.
Jesse realises about Brocks poisoning because when he was in Saul's office he was smoking weed, Saul had Huell pick pocket it off him so that the vacuum repair man would pick him up. Jesse notices that it's gone from his pocket before getting picked up and realises that Huell must've pick pocketed the ricin when he went to Sauls shortly before Brock became sick
I still feel like the end of Gus scene is one of the most beautiful and artistic things I've seen. The sculpting and 3D rendering is pretty impeccable, seriously beautiful work!!!
We all watched Breaking Bad; whether it was out of curiosity or acquaintance or living that lifestyle. It was a great series that was interesting to the public. It had the humor, the hurt feelings, depicting reality or possibilities of what can happen. It didn’t matter to me if episodes seemed off the hook, or think the plot should have been this way or Troy should of or Jesse could of. Its entertainment, not a guide book, and I enjoyed it. This compact version was to the point and was great. Good job!! Just leaving my comment is all.
He completely left out how Gus accomplished the mass poisoning of paranoid gangsters who never take the first drink. The Tequila was poisoned and the only way Gus was able to get the gangsters to drink it was to drink it himself first by calling for a celebratory toast. He immediately vomited afterwards and had a doctor standing by but it still almost killed him. It was a pretty cool episode.
@@Alex-nv7gk There was an antidote. I misspoke when I said he drank it - he took pills just before the crew showed up to drink the bottle he gave them. He threw up to remove as much of the powerful poison as possible. What do you think those pills were that he ingested just before the poisoning?
A small detail I love is Tuco's reactions to the meth getting less intense as they happen. Just like how a drug will slowly lose its affect on its user overtime.
Like you mean he had never used meth up until then? Also I dont know if its meant to be his chemical reaction or his excitement over the quality after sampling it. Because as with any drug, meth takes at least 10 minutes or so to be felt when snorted. If you were a "meth connoisseur" so to speak then maybe you could tell by the strength just by how it strong it tasted, smelled or burned in your nose. IDK doesnt really make sense.
@@bgill3693 I understand that its more potent meth but it isn't a "different type" of meth, as in the drug itself is still the same drug, just stronger. Tuco would be less exited each time he tries it as the novelty of such strong meth wears away. Like the first time he tried it he no doubt had never seen meth that strong before and is blown away. After that, it becomes less and less amazing or novel to him.
@@NowhereMan7 I take it you've never done meth so just stop. I can 100% guarantee that kick it gives from snorting a big bump of fire will do that to you each any every time .
After finally giving Better Call Saul a chance, I realized how much I actually forgot about the plot of BB and was contemplating giving it a second watch. Would've been hours wasted if I didn't find this video, and I'm probably not alone. Thanks a lot mate, your commentary and editing was godly.
I’ve watched the series 5 times and this is a phenomenal recap. Love the humor you peppered in! Jesse realized the ricin cigarette situation when Huell pick pocketed his weed off of him before he was about to be “disappeared” and remembered when Huell patted him down in the past before he noticed the ricin cigarette missing. Thank you for the video!
1:11:10 Actually Jesse realized that Walter poisoned Brock because Huell lifted his weed. So he made the connection with when he searched him before. That it could’ve been possible that given more time in his pockets he could’ve stolen the ricin cigarette when it went missing in season 4. That possibility was greater than any possibility of how Brock was mysteriously poisoned, especially seeing what Walter has been capable up till that point in time. So he realized Huell was a pickpocket basically and tied it to Walter.
@pyropulse Except its not an inconsistency, nor a contradiction: Gus didnt directly kill a kid, he probably didnt even make the order to kill the kid. Odds are that he ordered his men to tie up loose ends. The difference is that up untill that point, Jesse thinks Walter was actually willing to kill a kid himself through ricin(when it was not). Gus wouldnt have cared about the difference, but Jesse did. Lets look back at the earlier time where he visits the meth junkies. Their kid was basically going to die, just like many other potential kids, because of meth that Walter and Jesse made. But that child's death would have been direct. Even if Walter's product was the direct cause for child neglect and heavy addicts maybe even killing their kids. It wasnt Walter who killed the kids. Neither did Gus. In both cases, it was their business that killed the kid. Giving the kid a poisoned cigarette with Ricin(from Jesse's perspective, Jesse never learns the truth), was Walter directly killing a kid. Let alone killing a kid just to get Jesse on his side, while the kid that died because of Gus was actively dealing drugs. So in short: Gus didnt directly cause the death The kid that died due to Gus was actively dealing Walter "killed" a kid to frame someone else, just to get Jesse back Jesse was established to not blame the death of kids on the original cause, but on the people who actually did the killing. Is it illogical from your POV? Sure, but from Jesse's character? It fits in line with his own morality.
@pyropulse It's easy to imagine how Jesse snapped over that. He's triggered from the last kid that was killed by Todd and at the time he was disturbed by how Walter shrugged it off. (you remember Walt was happily whistling the next day and it occurred to Jesse that Walt is basically a psychopath but he let himself deny it) And it was a mind fuck for Jesse to realize Walt was lying because think about how emotional and self-punishing Jesse was over the fact that he was originally about to kill Walter over Brock. Even we didn't know Walter was deceiving Jesse when it happened. For him to realize he'd been psychologically bamboozled and naive enough to trust Walt showed that he'd been just a fool/pawn the entire time, yet there he was about to be sent off to the sunset like a good little boy.. That's the biggest slap in the face he received in the whole show. Well, up until Walt told him he let Jane die then called for his enslavement... That was a pretty big slap in the face too....
*Correction* Walter's family can afford real bacon, however Skyler is forcing him to eat healthy because his age and she wants him to live longer. Foreshadowing the cancer call-out.
Mad appreciation for the effort that went into this video, I come back and watch it maybe once a week and wath the summary of the episode of bb I’m currently in of like a catch-up.
Honestly, I think Todd taking out Andrea in front of Jesse is one of the most brutal scenes on T.V ever. Aaron Paul is a great actor. It just seems like the darkest few minutes ive seen in a TV show.
Yeah it was, but I think even more so because the charictor building for the guy who shot her was so good. He was the most realistic psychopath on the whole show.
Completely agree. She’s, throughout the show, one of the purest, sweetest characters and one who never deserved anything wrong at that point. It’s truly terrible, and it pains me every time I see it.
I love it because Walter originally just wants to cook meth and make some cash, but every where he turns he unintentionally gets involved in situations as it slowly spirals out of control, dragging more and more people into it all. Amazing writing
that's the main theme. dealing / making drugs might feel victimless, because all you see is the money & economic opportunity. What you don't see is the harms in the worst offenders, the associated violence, etc. Kind of an archaic representation of the drug world these days (more of a 60s-80s take), but with meth & harder drugs like heroin, crack, cocaine possibly, the violence and downstream harms are quite real
I’ve thought about this since I was young didn’t collateral damage was the term but I’ve always thought about it I’ve cause a tragic even by just existing have I made something happen have you? I’d say that’s an interesting topic
You are one of my favorite TH-camrs, beacause you condense all my fav shows into 1-3 hours binge watches, that my adhd brain very much appreciates, you are one of few TH-camrs that I watch without an adblock, ❤️
1:11:53 Hank never forgot about the confession tape, tho Walter making that tape was a mega brain play. But Hank realized he’d need some damn good evidence to refute the video if he ever wanted to get ahead of it and go to the DEA. And Jesse and his confessions were the perfect pieces of evidence for this, so he essentially was going to use Jesse to corner Walt and catch him before his DEA days inevitably ended. Not sure if someone else has already clarified this in the comments but I didn’t see it so I typed it out real quick. This video is awesome btw!
Yeah someone has already commented saying this but I appreciate you taking the time to tell me also, thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you still enjoyed it!
Also pretty sure Hank understood Walt's situation soon became a downward spiral through that video. Of course, still a bitch/genius move but still a confession of what happened in some way and I'm sure Hank understood that.
1:11:15 - I also had a similar problem, but once I've seen this a few weeks ago I got it. When he's at Saul's talking about disappearing Huel is staring at him while he smokes a blunt, then Saul mentions that he can't be high or the whole operation will be for nothing and Jesse shows that he has some weed in his pocket. While getting out of Saul's office Huel (known for his fast hands) bumps into him (again, just as with the cigarette some time earlier). From all the things that Jesse forgets he always remembers to take his drugs (as a typical junkie) and when he doesn't see them in his pockets he knows that something fishy is up. The only person that could have taken it was probably someone in Saul's place, someone who bumped into him on his way out. Ps: As for the junkie thing I mentioned above, I know it because for a quarter of my life I was in a few bands etc with some junkies on board or as friends. They could forget their own birthdays, but always remembered where they stashed their weed.
The fact this hasn’t blown up is incredible, saw it advertised on tik tok thought I’d watch a few minutes, ended up watching the whole thing. Amazing Video!
While I was making it I wondered if anyone would be watch the whole thing and considered uploading in parts, but I'm glad I didn't now. Thank you for the kind words and support it means a lot to me.
Thank you so much for this! I know this probably took an obscene about of time to make, it’s so well made, edited and it did it’s job in reminding me of fantastic episodes before I binge better call Saul
I appreciate that you could condense a longer show like Breaking Bad into an hour and twenty minutes while still making your analysis funny and entertaining. Well done.
Breaking bad is a perfect depiction of how choosing the wrong path in life and how traumatic decisions like this can destroy everything you are as a person and the people around you never seen anything that shows this so well. Truly a heartbreaking masterpiece.
I'm having trouble think of a character in any TV show that I've thoroughly enjoyed as much as I loved Mike. It's been a while, and I can't remember if it was the writing of the character or the actor's ability in portraying, but for me, every time he's onscreen is gold. I love how much screentime he gets in Better Call Saul.
Ozymandias is probably the greatest single episode of TV I've ever seen. Gritty, Grim, no smooth camera moves, dark and it knows it. A truly heartbreaking moment for everyone; Jesse, Skyler, Walt Jr., hell even Heisenberg himself. Just sad, and extremely well acted.
1:11:09 I can explain it. Walt had Jesse distracted from the cigarette’s disappearance when the poison was a different kind. In season 5, Jesse remembered that the cigarette had disappeared, and only he and Walt knew about it. As for the confession video, the writers didn’t forget about it. The video was the reason Hank had no choice but to catch Walt in the act.
He showed how mundane life can drive a person down especially when had such big plans as a youth like Walt. The excitement really gave him something to live for, the cancer was kinda like a metaphor of his feelings towards life.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017well what do you wear after waking up from a terrible red wine hangover, was you expecting him to wear a Christian Dior leather jacket and Cartier shades as he says it
@@nighTmareCSGO My point is even when he had money he didn't start dressing with style. He still dressed like a geek. Some nicer clothes, but his sense of style was still lame. Even the hat looked sort of silly, but it did give him a little attitude. Walther White was ultimately a dude with a huge ego and lots of insecurities.
I loved the scene when Gus is about to be blown up and says the best line in the show, "We really were Breaking bad the whole time." Masterpiece filmmaking.
I feel like people who don't like "Fly" don't understand the episode. It started off as Vince needing a cheap episode for the season because their budget was essentially gone. They created this masterpiece in turn. It's absolutely my favorite episode of the series. It's hilarious and the acting between Jesse and Walt is S tier.
That episode shows how Walt White has everything he wanted in the beginning. And he can't stand that stability because that's not what it's about to him any more.
Yesterday I watched all 8 hours and 4 minutes of your Waking dead video in one sitting, this one was definitely easier to do, but all the same extremely entertaining. At the end of the video you said you always wanted to be an entertainer and you have. I enjoyed this entire video. Thanks for putting your time and energy into this recap, and the part where you show you're editing somewhere in the video made me think about how long these actually take and I can see the love and care you put into them. Keep going strong, I can't wait to see what you do next and in the mean time I have a lot to catch up with.
When Hank catch Jesse trying to burn the house and Jesse very upset crying says * He can't keep getting away with it* ( Something similar aha ) I got goosebump the first time .. poor Jesse
This is gold! As someone who watched the series 2 times you still manage to point out some things I missed and made an entertaining reminder of all the great stuff about the series, hope you keep growing cause you deserve it!
Thank you so much, it certainly did take a look of time and effort. I'm just happy people are taking to my channel based off this video, and they will be rewarded with more series recaps.

Hands down the greatest television series of all time. Absolutely spellbinding and I doubt there can ever be another that operates on that level. Glad I was there for it. Cheers!
Watched this in increments every time I finished an episode of the show (my first viewing; just finished it all like a week ago). Such a phenomenal journey I had with this amazing piece of television, and it's a tad bittersweet that I'll never get to watch it again with anticipation of what would happen next. Glad I knew about this video at the right time, and I loved your funny and thorough breakdown.
Yeah it was a little uneven and even weak at times in the first couple seasons. By the 3rd season they started to really hit their stride. It's also a beautiful character arc. So few shows have broken with tv tradition and stuck with the plan after becoming a hit. Most shows just try to milk every last dollar like that horrible Walking Dead franchise.
@@slick3996 I mean I guess there's nothing wrong with it if they keep the show fresh, but I severely lost interest after Negan showed up and killed two of my favorite characters. Also the show went woke right around the same time and it was annoying as fuck.
When you talked about the confession video, I think the main reason why Hank somehow stopped going after Walt was because Marie accepted payments to his medical treatment. It would have been easy for ABQ PD or DEA to look into the records and having the treatment being paid in full amounts. It would have made it seem like Hank did know of the money and there would loose his credibility to showcase he had no idea. Plus having Marie unable to literally explain things rationally would still have a red flag since she has a history of lying such as when she was caught stealing items and shoplifting. It would have been seen as a liability. Amazing video always listen to it when I’m running or biking !🙌🏽
I felt that Hank realized he was dealing with someone with a genius IQ and nothing left to lose, truly diabolical and felt he may not be able to outsmart him but rather prove he did it by evidence.
I watched every episode, when it aired. Most more than once since. This still pointed out things I missed. Brilliant. Well done. Subbed, liked and commented.
I would not consider Walt a hero by any stretch. We sympathize with him in the beginning, but he's generally not a good guy. I just finished my like 8th re-watch and I was surprised at how I viewed Walt this run. I actually sympathized with Skylar this time too. She really isn't as bad as people make her out to be (at least until the IFT fiasco).
Walter is a bad egg from the beginning. Like you say, he is sympathetic, as a relatively ordinary man forced to live a degrading and fulfilling life for his family, only to be threatened with cancer. But, the more you learn about his character and his backstory, the more you realize that not only is he an egotistical, selfish asshole, but that his pride and ego have always been what held him back. His spit from Gray Matter was almost certainly his own doing, some fight he couldn't let go of, and as a result he sold his shares for nothing. Even his family, which he claims to cherish above all else, isn't the family he wants; Skyler isn't the woman of his dreams, he wanted Gretchen; His son is disabled, and aloof; his daughter was both unexpected, and will probably never meet him, because of his cancer. I think one of the most interesting scenes is the scene where he talks to Walt Jr about his father. The trauma of seeing his father being so feeble and helpless, and of that being the only memory he has of him, motivates everything he does. He wants desperately to be seen as powerful, successful, enviable. He fears and detests the idea of being not in control of himself, or his own destiny, like his father. And when the idea of chemotherapy comes up, he thinks of his father, and rejects it outright. I think people often overlook how key that scene is to understanding who Walter White truly is as a person.
Bro the fight effects that you edited in at 49:40 onwards were golden! 💯 Awesome vid, summarises the main plot points and character arcs of the series very well 🌟
This is truly the greatest show of all time. Good memes, Good Actors, Perfect Story, Perfect Ending, Gutwrenching scenes. I loved season 5 the most. So many Things happened I love breaking bad
What an incredible recap, I loved the editing, it was fun at times, but overall you made me as prepared as I can be for the upcoming Breaking Bad timeline in Better Call Saul
"Jesse is playing Sonic All Stars Racing on the Xbox 360 with a strung-out goth girl on a dirty bed. Is this episode called 'Jesse goes to heaven?'" That had me in stitches 😂😂😂

"Tuco is now impressed by Walter after realizing he's a fellow crazy person."
This is gold.
It's not even an exaggeration really. I genuinely think that Tuco's perception of Walter's insanity was the only reason he let him walk out of there with his respect.
It's both very true and, incidentally, the only way to get Tuco to respect you.
loki
Tuco is the kind of person I wouldn't want to meet, on a crowded street, in the day time.
And on the other very, VERY, far end we have Jessy Eisenberg playing Lex Luther in Dawn Of Justice(?). Least threatening villain ever.

@@Insidejokesgamin OHHHHH HOLY MOTHER OF GODDDDDD.
you see all of Breaking Bad is actually a fanfiction written by Mr. White's students. He never tells them anything about his personal life so they just made stuff up and eventually it went totally off the rails.
the opposite of "this happy fantasy story is actually a delusion by the main character suffering trauma"
@@AlienZizi you see, the secret end-of-credits scene on the last episode shows a bunch of the students reading out their fanfic at lunch in Mr. White's room when he walks in unexpectedly and asks to know what they're writing. The entire show is just them telling him what they wrote
@@martian1575 Ok, I haven't watched breaking bad, and I don't want to watch breaking bad because it's very heavy, a little too heavy for me to handle. So be honest with me please, does that really happen or are you just joking?
@@soulbounddoll1826 hes just joking. it would be a hilarious way to close out a several year running dark show though, but I doubt it could be done without major backlash.
lmaoo me and my old mates used do this with our old music teacher just joking about random situations he couldve been in
18:00 the reason why walt punched the paper dispenser in the toilet is because he was angry that he might actually live. He has done terrible things, he wanted to get money for the family and die. The longer he lives, the more damage he caused.
Yep. He wants to go out on a blaze of glory, but he doesn't want to see the people he's burned.
Essentially he's a bad guy that wants to get put down
He was also very angry at himself because he could not justify his selfish actions anymore with his cancer. He had now to admit for the first time that he really enjoys being in the meth business and does it more for himself and the thrill of it than his family
The whole plan only works if he's going out on his shield. Now he's just a criminal who had a period of health issues. Can totally show up to a trial and go to prison. Gosh I so remember when this was all speculation. This is exactly like the conversations we had when it was airing. I almost prefer not knowing what is going to happen to Walt. That's how intriguing they made the journey. Nobody really wondered how it was going to end, we just wanted to see what would happen NEXT. Perfect writing.
Not really. Walt never cared for the things he had done. He used his cancer as an excuse to cook meth and earn money for his family. With his cancer being gone, he had no excuse to cook meth anymore. After that, he only did it for himself. Thats why he punched it. Not because he thought he was doing terrible things.
Actually seeing walters life before the meth makes me sad, after I love his confidence it’s just hard not to. Like what an amazing way to play a character, so many developments were made for many different characters.
Absolutely, I can't think of a better TV series for development on interesting characters
Yea Bryan Cranston is definitely a goat
He showed how mundane life can drive a person down especially when had such big plans as a youth like Walt. The excitement really gave him something to live for, the cancer was kinda like a metaphor of his feelings towards life.
The cut back to Walt calling Skyler talking about hollys name and how they should go on a trip that weekend then it fades into the beginning of ozymandis 😕
many characters... except Skye. She was a horrible narcissist from start to finish
It astonishes me on how a show with so many drug dealers and lunatics managed to make us hate a pregnant woman with family problems more than anything.
Yeah she was a bitch during season two i mean walter’s providing for his family and that’s what a man does
@@jamsya493 Thanks for succinctly explaining that the hatred for Skylar is rooted in misogynistic bullshit. You literally couldn't have put it better.
Serious answer time: If you actually watched the show, you'll notice that Walter got an offer from his former colleagues/friends to pay off his medical bills VERY early on. It was a genuine offer, with no strings attached. He got into the drug trade after he turned them down for no other reason than pride. He did it for himself. He literally says it in the end, "I did it for me. I liked it." The writers make sure to make it VERY clear that Walter is not under any kind of REAL pressure to keep cooking drugs to get his family out of bankruptcy, that it's all his desire to feel important. It's kind of a major point. (Smh, fake fanboys...)
Skylar's reaction in season 2 is in fact the reasonable way to react to your life partner lying to your face and gaslighting you. If you think she was being a 'bitch', please be sure to tell your take on this to any women in your life who know Breaking Bad, so they know to stay away from you.

I gotta love the way the script of the show described those final minutes of Walt.
To quote: "We look straight down on Walt, as he tumbles into frame, lying flat on his back on the floor. His eyes stare up at us, lifeless. And yet, his final expression is one of faint satisfaction.
Police officers approach him now. Four, six, eight of them. They approach him carefully, their guns drawn and aimed.
But they're too late. He got away"
What a perfect way to just summarize the final shot of the show.

@@jiodesu yeah, it shows what happens right after the end of breaking bad
40:00 This is wrong, Gus killed Victor because Victor’s face was seen at Gale’s murder scene, not because he was wasting meth materials. It also did double down as an intimidation tactic for Jesse and Walter.
It was a joke...
@@poggerwhite your life is a joke
@@poggerwhite True although the clarification is still appreciated.
While the clarification satisfies those of us who have seen the show, too many people are watching this without seeing the actual show and shouldnt have everything explicitly said maybe
@@BREAKocean Then why watch this video when it obviously tells you the main beats of the entire story?
Out of all the atrocities we are forced to witness throughout this show, in my opinion, nothing comes even close to Jesse watching Todd execute Andrea. Everytime i see this moment its so ridiculously gut wrenching, it almost feels like they went too far in that instance. Its so absurdly evil, and so phenomenally acted by Aaron Paul, his muffled screams are unmatched by anything like it.
janes death is much worse in my opinion...
The most gutwrenching scene is definetly either Andrea's death or "I watched Jane die" for sure
Aaron Paul deserves to be in the acting hall of fame just for that one moment
"Despite all the mistakes we made in this show, I don't think he was as good as Todd."
Skyler's happy birthday to Tedd was worse
Gus killed Victor because Victor stupidly got spotted at the scene of Gail's murder. Later on, when the DEA brings Gus in for questioning, it shows a sketch of Victor hanging on the wall of the police dept.
That's a good insight, thanks for commenting
Really I haven’t caught that attention to detail of victor before. I will have to watch that episode again
@@JessicaGarcia-xf9wr I forget if it was Gus or Mike, but they specifically ask Victor ---- if my memory serves me "was the kid seen?" and he nods no, and then he asks "Were you?" and he just gives a facial expression like yeah shit
I never noticed the police sketch untill the last time I watched bb thru for the 100th time
He was stated to be a "bystander" in the sketch though, I don't think he was a suspect but rather no one in the building knew him. Just like he himself said, he was just another bystander
39:55 I think the biggest reason that Gus killed Victor is what Walter brought up later on in the series --- Victor's action of learning how to cook was out of his place. Gus's empire consists of two major components: the knowledge behind making the product; and the brute force to secure and sell it. It was never Victor's job to cook meth for Gus but rather be the security force and part of the distribution process whereas Walter and Gale are cooks that should not have any connections to Gus's dealers. As a ruler, it's better to divide your subordinates with different skillsets, best if they are not aware of each other's existence. Because once Victor, a distributor and hitman, truly grasps the science behind the cooking, he can get rid of Gus whenever he pleases. This is demonstrated later on in the series as well. Once Todd's gang knows how to reliably produce the blue meth, they had no problem killing Walter. In a volatile organization such as this, having knowledge makes you an asset, having too much knowledge truly makes you a threat to the top dog and effectively a death sentence for yourself. This reminds me of Ancient China, namely the Qing Dynasty, princes and other royalties were stranded in the capital and not allowed to meet with major local authorities such as governors and generals.
you make a good couple of points, but as far as I remember, Victor also checks to see if Gale is dead, right? I think another big reason for killing Victor was that some people saw him and the police got an accurate description of his face, so police finding and following Victor was just too big of a risk for Gus to take, thus he had to get rid of him.
Your point + victor fucking up in gales house is what got him killed
@@alexandertheok9610 I totally forgot that part, you are absolutely right
@@xkdjdnskdnscndjdj984 and yup what you said about both being correct, is correct lol
@@alexandertheok9610 but wait, was gus aware that victor was seen at that point? as far as i remember, vic told mike, and all they said to gus was that they had walt jesse and that gale was dead.
maybe he asumed vic would be seen or maybe we could asume that they did mention it to gus, but then it would make victor's confidence while gus is present super weird, unless vic was just THAT convinced that his loyalty would save him. idk tho, that sussy look gus gave when he spotted the drawing of vic might signal that he did suspect it.

Imagine in he made it 2 hours long, I wouldn’t mind since I listen to this kinda stuff a lot
Aaron paul did it in like a minute
He punched the towel dispenser because he fully planned on dying and when he found out it wouldn’t
he felt himself stuck in a hole. That’s what I’ve always taken from it
Walt wanted to die as the Man that provided for his family, only him. He wanted to die before anyone would suspect his crimes.
Walt's Pride meant he refused to accept any help.
All of Walter’s actions up to that point were internally justified by the fact that he would die in a couple months anyways. Knowing that he would actually continue to live made him realize that he would have to suffer the consequences of his drug lord lifestyle. I recall later on in the show that Walter said he wish he would have died by cancer in order to make himself seem like a selfless hero.
Bravo Vince
I didn't even realize I went through an hour of my life until he talked about watching the whole thing astonishing how well he made this video
I really appreciate that and I'm glad you had a good time with it
The reason the taped confession never comes back up is that it's not meant as a way to eliminate Hank, but to blackmail him into silence. It's a tool to ensure that if Walt goes down, he will take Hank with him, and as long as Hank doesn't turn him in, he won't release it.
Hank needs Jesse and the buried money to prove that Walt was the mastermind behind the operation.
Todd is definitely a psychopath
Killed a kid with no hesitation, when even the most dangerous and lunatic drug dealers were doubtful about it
Came up with the most terrifying and painful way of torturing Jesse instead of just killing him, instead making him go insane from the deaths of his close ones
TFW you went to school with a bunch of Todds :/
I don’t think he was the one who wanted Jesse tortured. He wasn’t sadistic, but he was very much a psychopath. He simply wanted to cook meth for the Neonazi guy and went about making decisions with 0 regard for empathy

Mostly on-point. However, Don Margolis, Jane’s father, didn’t crash two planes together intentionally. He returned to work far too soon, to an extremely high stress, high stakes job, and wasn’t able to concentrate effectively or keep his eyes from tearing up or clouding over or whatever. The horrendous crash was unmistakably an accident, and a beautiful piece of acting as well.
Yep. After my like 3rd rewatch, I notice he says “Jane” instead of “Juliet” when speaking his code, showing he was not focused on his job.

I'm not sure if anyone has said this already but I finally understand why Jessie comes to the conclusion that Huell lifted the Ricin off of Jesse. As Jesse is waiting to be picked up, he realizes the dope he brought with him is gone. This is mentioned by Saul when Jesse attacks him saying, "I had Huell lift your dope. I told you I couldn't risk the guy not taking you." So Jesse puts it together that if Huell could swipe the dope off of him, he could have done the same with the Ricin. Now I will agree its still a leap for him to come up with that, but I don't think it's completely out of the blue.
The thing about the Breaking Bad universe is that any side character could have their own show like Saul Goodman, that’s how good this show is.

We all watched Breaking Bad; whether it was out of curiosity or acquaintance or living that lifestyle. It was a great series that was interesting to the public. It had the humor, the hurt feelings, depicting reality or possibilities of what can happen. It didn’t matter to me if episodes seemed off the hook, or think the plot should have been this way or Troy should of or Jesse could of. Its entertainment, not a guide book, and I enjoyed it. This compact version was to the point and was great. Good job!! Just leaving my comment is all.
He completely left out how Gus accomplished the mass poisoning of paranoid gangsters who never take the first drink. The Tequila was poisoned and the only way Gus was able to get the gangsters to drink it was to drink it himself first by calling for a celebratory toast. He immediately vomited afterwards and had a doctor standing by but it still almost killed him. It was a pretty cool episode.
Gus drank the antidote before he drank the poisoned drink.

A small detail I love is Tuco's reactions to the meth getting less intense as they happen. Just like how a drug will slowly lose its affect on its user overtime.
Like you mean he had never used meth up until then?
Also I dont know if its meant to be his chemical reaction or his excitement over the quality after sampling it. Because as with any drug, meth takes at least 10 minutes or so to be felt when snorted.
If you were a "meth connoisseur" so to speak then maybe you could tell by the strength just by how it strong it tasted, smelled or burned in your nose. IDK doesnt really make sense.
@@NowhereMan7 it was a new type of meth, one that he definitely didn’t try before

@@bgill3693 I understand that its more potent meth but it isn't a "different type" of meth, as in the drug itself is still the same drug, just stronger.
Tuco would be less exited each time he tries it as the novelty of such strong meth wears away.
Like the first time he tried it he no doubt had never seen meth that strong before and is blown away. After that, it becomes less and less amazing or novel to him.

How is it wasted if you are watching breaking bad?
I’ve watched the series 5 times and this is a phenomenal recap. Love the humor you peppered in! Jesse realized the ricin cigarette situation when Huell pick pocketed his weed off of him before he was about to be “disappeared” and remembered when Huell patted him down in the past before he noticed the ricin cigarette missing. Thank you for the video!
Thank you so much! And yeah since uploading a few people have told me about the Jesse weed situation. I appreciate the feedback!
1:11:10 Actually Jesse realized that Walter poisoned Brock because Huell lifted his weed. So he made the connection with when he searched him before. That it could’ve been possible that given more time in his pockets he could’ve stolen the ricin cigarette when it went missing in season 4. That possibility was greater than any possibility of how Brock was mysteriously poisoned, especially seeing what Walter has been capable up till that point in time. So he realized Huell was a pickpocket basically and tied it to Walter.

@@darthbog2125 good shit
@pyropulse I disagree
@pyropulse Except its not an inconsistency, nor a contradiction:
Gus didnt directly kill a kid, he probably didnt even make the order to kill the kid. Odds are that he ordered his men to tie up loose ends. The difference is that up untill that point, Jesse thinks Walter was actually willing to kill a kid himself through ricin(when it was not). Gus wouldnt have cared about the difference, but Jesse did.
Lets look back at the earlier time where he visits the meth junkies. Their kid was basically going to die, just like many other potential kids, because of meth that Walter and Jesse made. But that child's death would have been direct. Even if Walter's product was the direct cause for child neglect and heavy addicts maybe even killing their kids. It wasnt Walter who killed the kids. Neither did Gus. In both cases, it was their business that killed the kid.
Giving the kid a poisoned cigarette with Ricin(from Jesse's perspective, Jesse never learns the truth), was Walter directly killing a kid. Let alone killing a kid just to get Jesse on his side, while the kid that died because of Gus was actively dealing drugs.
So in short:
Gus didnt directly cause the death
The kid that died due to Gus was actively dealing
Walter "killed" a kid to frame someone else, just to get Jesse back
Jesse was established to not blame the death of kids on the original cause, but on the people who actually did the killing.
Is it illogical from your POV? Sure, but from Jesse's character? It fits in line with his own morality.
@pyropulse It's easy to imagine how Jesse snapped over that.
He's triggered from the last kid that was killed by Todd and at the time he was disturbed by how Walter shrugged it off.
(you remember Walt was happily whistling the next day and it occurred to Jesse that Walt is basically a psychopath but he let himself deny it)
And it was a mind fuck for Jesse to realize Walt was lying because think about how emotional and self-punishing Jesse was over the fact that he was originally about to kill Walter over Brock.
Even we didn't know Walter was deceiving Jesse when it happened. For him to realize he'd been psychologically bamboozled and naive enough to trust Walt showed that he'd been just a fool/pawn the entire time, yet there he was about to be sent off to the sunset like a good little boy..
That's the biggest slap in the face he received in the whole show.
Well, up until Walt told him he let Jane die then called for his enslavement... That was a pretty big slap in the face too....
*Correction*
Walter's family can afford real bacon, however Skyler is forcing him to eat healthy because his age and she wants him to live longer. Foreshadowing the cancer call-out.
this is actually an important detail imo
Doing God’s work
It was a joke
I think it may be both.
I mean he deliberately left out facts and made jokes out of others
Mad appreciation for the effort that went into this video, I come back and watch it maybe once a week and wath the summary of the episode of bb I’m currently in of like a catch-up.
Much appreciated!
Honestly, I think Todd taking out Andrea in front of Jesse is one of the most brutal scenes on T.V ever. Aaron Paul is a great actor. It just seems like the darkest few minutes ive seen in a TV show.
Yeah it was, but I think even more so because the charictor building for the guy who shot her was so good. He was the most realistic psychopath on the whole show.
How bout now?
@Ben Dover man I just finished it too and that scene really got me
@Ben Dover Seeing Todd get brutally choked by Jesse is still one of the most satisfying scenes in TV history.
Completely agree. She’s, throughout the show, one of the purest, sweetest characters and one who never deserved anything wrong at that point. It’s truly terrible, and it pains me every time I see it.
Collateral damage is so real in this show. Literally Walter causes so much damage
Edit: Holy shtttt 1k likes thanks guys ima re-watch again 🤣🤣
I love it because Walter originally just wants to cook meth and make some cash, but every where he turns he unintentionally gets involved in situations as it slowly spirals out of control, dragging more and more people into it all. Amazing writing
decides to make some meth and ends up indirectly causing a civilian plane crash
that's the main theme. dealing / making drugs might feel victimless, because all you see is the money & economic opportunity. What you don't see is the harms in the worst offenders, the associated violence, etc.
Kind of an archaic representation of the drug world these days (more of a 60s-80s take), but with meth & harder drugs like heroin, crack, cocaine possibly, the violence and downstream harms are quite real
I’ve thought about this since I was young didn’t collateral damage was the term but I’ve always thought about it I’ve cause a tragic even by just existing have I made something happen have you? I’d say that’s an interesting topic
Literally all because of his ego, but I guess if you are gonna die go out with a bang right

Thanks for making the video 👍
You are one of my favorite TH-camrs, beacause you condense all my fav shows into 1-3 hours binge watches, that my adhd brain very much appreciates, you are one of few TH-camrs that I watch without an adblock, ❤️
1:11:53 Hank never forgot about the confession tape, tho Walter making that tape was a mega brain play. But Hank realized he’d need some damn good evidence to refute the video if he ever wanted to get ahead of it and go to the DEA. And Jesse and his confessions were the perfect pieces of evidence for this, so he essentially was going to use Jesse to corner Walt and catch him before his DEA days inevitably ended. Not sure if someone else has already clarified this in the comments but I didn’t see it so I typed it out real quick. This video is awesome btw!
Yeah someone has already commented saying this but I appreciate you taking the time to tell me also, thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you still enjoyed it!
Also pretty sure Hank understood Walt's situation soon became a downward spiral through that video. Of course, still a bitch/genius move but still a confession of what happened in some way and I'm sure Hank understood that.
1:11:15 - I also had a similar problem, but once I've seen this a few weeks ago I got it. When he's at Saul's talking about disappearing Huel is staring at him while he smokes a blunt, then Saul mentions that he can't be high or the whole operation will be for nothing and Jesse shows that he has some weed in his pocket. While getting out of Saul's office Huel (known for his fast hands) bumps into him (again, just as with the cigarette some time earlier). From all the things that Jesse forgets he always remembers to take his drugs (as a typical junkie) and when he doesn't see them in his pockets he knows that something fishy is up. The only person that could have taken it was probably someone in Saul's place, someone who bumped into him on his way out.
Ps: As for the junkie thing I mentioned above, I know it because for a quarter of my life I was in a few bands etc with some junkies on board or as friends. They could forget their own birthdays, but always remembered where they stashed their weed.
Oh crap it's maromaro

I appreciate that you could condense a longer show like Breaking Bad into an hour and twenty minutes while still making your analysis funny and entertaining. Well done.
Breaking bad is a perfect depiction of how choosing the wrong path in life and how traumatic decisions like this can destroy everything you are as a person and the people around you never seen anything that shows this so well. Truly a heartbreaking masterpiece.
I'm having trouble think of a character in any TV show that I've thoroughly enjoyed as much as I loved Mike. It's been a while, and I can't remember if it was the writing of the character or the actor's ability in portraying, but for me, every time he's onscreen is gold. I love how much screentime he gets in Better Call Saul.
yes
Ozymandias is probably the greatest single episode of TV I've ever seen.
Gritty, Grim, no smooth camera moves, dark and it knows it. A truly heartbreaking moment for everyone; Jesse, Skyler, Walt Jr., hell even Heisenberg himself. Just sad, and extremely well acted.
This is one of the greatest videos o the internet about the greatest show.
ade? wassup
Thank you ADE! I've just been watching some of your videos, love the low energy mixed with great jokes it's very enjoyable to watch
1:11:09
I can explain it. Walt had Jesse distracted from the cigarette’s disappearance when the poison was a different kind.
In season 5, Jesse remembered that the cigarette had disappeared, and only he and Walt knew about it.
As for the confession video, the writers didn’t forget about it. The video was the reason Hank had no choice but to catch Walt in the act.
Several people have already made this comment lol... it's my fault for making the mistake and I do appreciate you commenting
@@Howesenberg Oh.
Sorry if that came across catty...I just woke up, your correction is totally valid
He showed how mundane life can drive a person down especially when had such big plans as a youth like Walt. The excitement really gave him something to live for, the cancer was kinda like a metaphor of his feelings towards life.
Absolutely classic series and a great video covering it! Enjoyed your commentary greatly
Thanks very much! I'm glad people are still finding this video
The thermite robbery scene was one of the funniest in the show. Was there ever a specific reason why they didn’t roll that barrel?
I'm pretty sure they were geniunely so inexperienced at this that they forgot rolling barrels is a thing.
@@vydave shows the character development because he learns to roll barrels in S5E14 lol
I kinda remember it being something like it would ruin the methylamine or make it explode or something but I could be entirely making that up
@@purrito3892 yup you're making it up lol
I feel like they were over thinking their plan and just forgot they could roll the barrel
I always thought how would it feel if Walter kept the same looks from season 1 to the very end. Imagine that geeky looking guy bossing people around.
The bald head was definitely the look he needed. He kept the stupid desert boots and bad wardrobe though.
His wardrobe gets way better
@@nighTmareCSGO Not really. Remember he delivers the "I am the danger" speech in a clapped out tee shirt.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017well what do you wear after waking up from a terrible red wine hangover, was you expecting him to wear a Christian Dior leather jacket and Cartier shades as he says it
@@nighTmareCSGO My point is even when he had money he didn't start dressing with style. He still dressed like a geek. Some nicer clothes, but his sense of style was still lame. Even the hat looked sort of silly, but it did give him a little attitude. Walther White was ultimately a dude with a huge ego and lots of insecurities.
I fucking love Saul Goodman. He’s one of the best characters in this god damn show.
Fuck yeah!
And he got an entire spin off show
And that’s why he got his own show
and now he has his own show that’s undeniably on par with the original
my top fav is like mike, then nacho, then saul, then ww
I loved the scene when Gus is about to be blown up and says the best line in the show, "We really were Breaking bad the whole time." Masterpiece filmmaking.
Watched the entire thing. 11:30 PM to 12:45 AM. Did not disappoint.
i just did the exact same thing, on the exact same time, what the fuck.
the exact timing matching my viewing time just now is slightly disturbing to me, but also reassuring.
@@veselka4256 wtf.. there are multiple of us? I replied before seeing your reply lmfao

I know the show inside and out but it never gets boring watching another recap.
I feel like people who don't like "Fly" don't understand the episode. It started off as Vince needing a cheap episode for the season because their budget was essentially gone. They created this masterpiece in turn. It's absolutely my favorite episode of the series. It's hilarious and the acting between Jesse and Walt is S tier.
Fly and open house sucks
It sucks you pompous hipster
JESSE THERES A CONTAMINATION
That episode shows how Walt White has everything he wanted in the beginning. And he can't stand that stability because that's not what it's about to him any more.
@@AstroZ99 lies
Yesterday I watched all 8 hours and 4 minutes of your Waking dead video in one sitting, this one was definitely easier to do, but all the same extremely entertaining. At the end of the video you said you always wanted to be an entertainer and you have. I enjoyed this entire video. Thanks for putting your time and energy into this recap, and the part where you show you're editing somewhere in the video made me think about how long these actually take and I can see the love and care you put into them. Keep going strong, I can't wait to see what you do next and in the mean time I have a lot to catch up with.
When Hank catch Jesse trying to burn the house and Jesse very upset crying says * He can't keep getting away with it* ( Something similar aha ) I got goosebump the first time .. poor Jesse
One of the best TV performances I've ever seen
Not me, I wanted Jesse to die, not Walt
Breaking Bad is without a doubt one of the very best series I've ever seen! Fantastically amazing show, love it!
I am watching this video chapter by chapter alongside the show and now I know prematurely that Ted buys a new car. damn you Howesenberg films
I'd advise against that lmao
This is a terrible idea if you want to avoid spoilers
bro just watch the show
Yeah definitely don't do that
now why would you do that
Heisenberg falling off gets me every time 😂😂
This is gold! As someone who watched the series 2 times you still manage to point out some things I missed and made an entertaining reminder of all the great stuff about the series, hope you keep growing cause you deserve it!
The clip of Walter falling in random parts of the video never gets old surprisingly. LMAOO
Man i can just imagine how long it took you to record, write a script and edit all of this, seriously good work friend.

This kind of feedback means a lot to me, thank you so much!
Watched this in increments every time I finished an episode of the show (my first viewing; just finished it all like a week ago). Such a phenomenal journey I had with this amazing piece of television, and it's a tad bittersweet that I'll never get to watch it again with anticipation of what would happen next. Glad I knew about this video at the right time, and I loved your funny and thorough breakdown.
Glad you had that experience, thanks for the comment!
This was excellent well put together and worth the watch even if i have seen the show a few times ...you sir have earned my sub
Thank you 🙂
What never fails to amaze me is how over the seasons, the show slowly but steadily gets a lot more intense
Yeah it was a little uneven and even weak at times in the first couple seasons. By the 3rd season they started to really hit their stride. It's also a beautiful character arc. So few shows have broken with tv tradition and stuck with the plan after becoming a hit. Most shows just try to milk every last dollar like that horrible Walking Dead franchise.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 i never understood TWD, what’s the point of constantly introducing new characters just to kill them off
@@slick3996 I mean I guess there's nothing wrong with it if they keep the show fresh, but I severely lost interest after Negan showed up and killed two of my favorite characters. Also the show went woke right around the same time and it was annoying as fuck.
When you talked about the confession video, I think the main reason why Hank somehow stopped going after Walt was because Marie accepted payments to his medical treatment. It would have been easy for ABQ PD or DEA to look into the records and having the treatment being paid in full amounts. It would have made it seem like Hank did know of the money and there would loose his credibility to showcase he had no idea. Plus having Marie unable to literally explain things rationally would still have a red flag since she has a history of lying such as when she was caught stealing items and shoplifting. It would have been seen as a liability. Amazing video always listen to it when I’m running or biking !🙌🏽
I appreciate the feedback and I can see your point of view
I felt that Hank realized he was dealing with someone with a genius IQ and nothing left to lose, truly diabolical and felt he may not be able to outsmart him but rather prove he did it by evidence.
Spectacular. I really like how you include your own small theories and unique thoughts on the episodes
Thanks very much
I watched every episode, when it aired. Most more than once since. This still pointed out things I missed.
Brilliant. Well done.
Subbed, liked and commented.
Thank you so much, glad you liked it
@@Howesenberg I like your work (not nuts about your avatar).
I would not consider Walt a hero by any stretch. We sympathize with him in the beginning, but he's generally not a good guy. I just finished my like 8th re-watch and I was surprised at how I viewed Walt this run. I actually sympathized with Skylar this time too. She really isn't as bad as people make her out to be (at least until the IFT fiasco).
Walts main problem is his superiority complex. If his ego werent so massive and in constant need of satisfaction his entire life would be diffrent.
You watched the show 8 times but yet you failed to spell Skyler’s name correctly.😂
@@TijmenRules Yeah, listening to someone's name should tell you which spelling variation they use... logic checks out there 🙃
@@Btotts that's why i always have my english subtitles turned on
Walter is a bad egg from the beginning. Like you say, he is sympathetic, as a relatively ordinary man forced to live a degrading and fulfilling life for his family, only to be threatened with cancer. But, the more you learn about his character and his backstory, the more you realize that not only is he an egotistical, selfish asshole, but that his pride and ego have always been what held him back. His spit from Gray Matter was almost certainly his own doing, some fight he couldn't let go of, and as a result he sold his shares for nothing. Even his family, which he claims to cherish above all else, isn't the family he wants; Skyler isn't the woman of his dreams, he wanted Gretchen; His son is disabled, and aloof; his daughter was both unexpected, and will probably never meet him, because of his cancer.
I think one of the most interesting scenes is the scene where he talks to Walt Jr about his father. The trauma of seeing his father being so feeble and helpless, and of that being the only memory he has of him, motivates everything he does. He wants desperately to be seen as powerful, successful, enviable. He fears and detests the idea of being not in control of himself, or his own destiny, like his father. And when the idea of chemotherapy comes up, he thinks of his father, and rejects it outright. I think people often overlook how key that scene is to understanding who Walter White truly is as a person.
this was a fun trip down memory lane, some fun bits, some sad bits, some really fun and interesting characters
thanks for the video :)
This is my 20th time watching this its so good keep up the work!
