I remember Jonathon Banks very well from Beverly Hills Cop (first one) and Wiseguy, the TV series. He was very good in Breaking Bad
I agree.
The ex-marshal being a junkie, and deliberately murdering a woman to set up Jax, after the kid shooting all his classmates...I’m losing interest.
The ATF agent Stahl episodes, THAT was good TV!

At one of Jesse’s NA meetings he describer making that box in woodshop.
He was having a flashback to his high school woodshop class.

I loved the laser sights.
Yah, I know. But when he called Skyler and took the blame for everything while the cops were listening, thats when i realized he was willing to die and let his son think he killed Hank, just to keep her out of trouble. He had turned into a very dark person, but at least he knew it and acknowledged it to her at the end by admitting he was selfish.
All the pretty sparkly bullets were ricocheting around the room and a wild one hit Walt while he was protecting Jesse.
Banks (Mike) made the show jump into the top rung when his character started
I mean it was awesome before that, but man he just really set it in high gear
<< “Actually one of the few sex scenes in the show followed Skyler hearing a text message from Walt telling her that he loved her an the kids.” >>
lol. Typical for the intellectualizer who had difficulty expressing emotional intimacy to his wife — do it via a text message.
Mike was my favorite character on the show, but I haven’t figured out why. Between banks’ excellent acting and the superb writing, Mike just ‘clicked.’
I HATED that he died!
Unfortunately when Walt said he loved them he thought he was heading to his own death. If I recall he was heading into a confrontation with Gus.
yeah- that was one of two deaths in this story I couldn’t quite stomach
that and the little kid Todd shot. Walt should have done more than yell at him.
which nod?
Last week, creator Vince Gilligan offered a one-word tease about the finale: “woodworking.” Long-time Breaking Bad fans will remember one of Jesse’s more eloquent moments at his addiction support group, when he told a story about building a wooden box in a vocational-tech class – one of the few times he really did apply himself — spending countless hours cutting, sanding and lacquering until it was “perfect.”
After initially claiming that he gave the box to his mother, he walks back the lie a few moments later: “You know, I didn’t give the box to my mom. I traded it for an ounce of weed.” Tragic, but that’s Jesse.
If you are going to quote something that someone else wrote, you could at least give credit to the author.

The author, Laura Hudson, has written some of the most beautiful recap/analysis pieces on Breaking Bad this season.
break format? OK tell us what you do?
Felina is the name of the Mexican girl Marty Robbins falls in love with down in the West Texas town of El Paso and then dies for.
You just knew there was someone or something else in that scene, but it was still a surprise when Walt was revealed.
I liked Todd, he was a polite gentleman who just got stuff done that needed to be taken care of. Except the murder of the kid......
I assumed he just was too high off the ground to avoid the M-60 rounds.
Ah, thank you both.
Makes the scene even more relevant.
