When I started watching
Breaking Bad
several years ago, it was very entertaining in part because it was a totally different world from mine. But now Albuquerque is only a few hundred miles away and I know many people (mostly clients, but a few friends) involved in drug taking and selling.
I don't think I've ever met someone who murdered anyone, but when I see Jesse and his pain and fear of being alone and willingness to throw himself into anything to not think about his life, well, I do care about some people who I think are living like that. It's really hard to watch.
NICE power shot, Leverage!!!
Seriously. Thank you, Frank Oz.
I really liked this episode. But I couldn't figure out Molly and Eliot's codenames were. Perky and Petoskey? What's that from?
(Aha. Checked the comments at KFM, and it was Packy and Botasky from Apocalypse Meow. Don't know why Molly expected Eliot to get her reference, but hey.)
I'm glad I don't pay attention to the
Leverage
Facebook posts pre-episode:
While the team steals a revolutionary computer chip from a high-tech home, a child goes missing from the carnival.
Way to spoil, guys!
Also, I just noticed that in the credits, Nate has gone from being MASTERMIND to BRAINS.
Also, whoa, this was that girl's first TV gig. She was great.
NICE power shot, Leverage!!!
There may have been some shouting and fist pumping in my living room when that happened.
I saw that someone posted this on KFM:
So, the hall of mirrors fight is Kane's audition reel to be the next Wolverine, huh?
OMG, I can totally see CK with the mutton-chops. And he's already got the canonical shortness going.
and the growling. Don't forget the growling.
Ha, this is amusing:
'Breaking Bad': Aaron Paul confesses his 'blue meth' addiction:
“Whenever the blue meth is on set, I am constantly eating it,” he tells EW. “It’s cotton candy-flavored rock candy. They dye it a little bit, but I don’t care — I just eat through the dye. I get everyone to try it. I literally try to hand out our drugs to new [actors] on the show. They’re like, ‘No, I don’t want to try.’ ‘Here just have one. You’re on Breaking Bad! Eat some of the meth!’ And they do and they’re like, ‘Wow, that’s actually really good.’ And then I always see them go to the big bins of meth, grab out a few and eat it…. I’m like, ‘Yeah, you’re liking my product.’”
Mozzie! I am mad at him too. I'm not sure why I'm taking Neal's side here.
I am mad at both Mozzie and Neal. This whole treasure thing is such a bad idea and Neal doesn't even really seem to be into it.
eta: but Eliza Dushku was hot. I really want her hair.
I'm more on Mozzie's side, in the sense that I don't know why Neal didn't tell him. Mostly, the whole thing is a bad idea.
But was that the Ark of the Covenant behind the Degas (or where the Degas should have been)? That's kind of funny.
