What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Walt has some serious incompetence issues. I cannot get over how someone who has a ph.d. in Chemistry and is brilliant is so devoid of working out how many ways other things could go wrong.

Ha, right? He's quite brilliant at times, but he can also be very short-sighted.

I absolutely cannot stand Hank and Walt's sister-in-law.

Aw. I think I warmed up to Hank and Marie more as the series progressed. Hank is kinda gross early on. Marie is kind of annoying early on, but she's pretty and she looks good in purple.

The show did not pick up for me until the 2nd to last ep of S1.

That's when Walt blows up Tuco's office with SCIENCE!!, right?

Because books.

I think Amy was played by the same actress who played Priya on Big Bang Theory. And Parker made a friend!

P-C, oh yes.

Beau is tentatively IN after that.

28 minutes into Major Crimes, and it was going so well until the Rusty issue reared its ugly head.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm hating Major Crimes. Although, I kind of like Rusty. Raydor really nweds at least one character that actually likes her in order to make her sympathetic and human IMO. Brenda had several, even of the team initially hated her. Maybe Rusty can fullfill that role.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I never liked Brenda, so Major Crimes is easier for me. Watching around Raydor would be easier if I didn't like her (I do)--my problem is the focus on plea bargaining. It's like moving from the Terminator to the Compromiser.

If you wanted to catch up o Breaking Bad via vid, this is not a bad way to do that [link]

Holy shit, that vid is amazing. I'm so used to Heisenberg-Walt now that I forgot how incredibly different Walt really was at the start. Sure he was a bit cocksure and arrogant, but Cranston played it very differently back then. It's awesome to watch his performance evolve with the character. It looks like working under Gus was really the catalyst for turning him into who he's become.

Trust my rage

Yeah, the plea bargaining, like Rusty, is getting Old. I want them to just solve murders.
