Well. No complaints from me. That was some very fine television.
I can't really imagine rewatching the series, but I kind of want to own it just because it's so good.

Meh. Walt does not deserve that kind of redemption. I would have been very happy to let him rot in New Hampshire and spend the entire episode with the rest of the family moving on with their lives.

I'm really glad Skyler got to hear him say he'd done it all for himself. I didn't expect that at all.

He had a lot of time to think in NH. Repeated viewings of Imaginarium will do that to a man.
I was very satisfied with the ending.

And on Talking Bad, Vince Gilligan is talking about how he really wanted to give this show closure because the fans deserve to have all the loose ends tied up. HA. Oh Vince, giving the audience closure does not mean letting your main character spend the series finale wander around telling everyone goodbye.
(Yeah, I didn't like it. Too sappy.)

He got Jesse out of that hell hole. As far as I'm concerned that bought him his semi-peaceful passing.
Also, Jesse got to seriously kill Todd. Win win.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I didn't find it sappy. It was finishing things up, but it wasn't too tidy for me. Jesse's free, but he has no money or friends, really. Some nice surprises, too. I did not expec him to be in skyler's kitchen during the whole phone call.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Alan Sepinwall parses the title for us:
As pointed out on the Internet earlier in the week, the title can be read as the chemical symbols for iron, lithium and sodium (aka "blood, meth and tears") or as an anagram for "finale." It could also be referring to the Marty Robbins' song "El Paso," which plays in the tape deck of the stolen New Hampshire car, and which features a Mexican girl by the name.
Iron Lithium Sodium! Blood Meth and Tears!
