    Yup. It'll be poetic justice and irony if Jesse winds up working WITH Hank to bring Walt down.

    And more proof that the spoiler run down is false..

    Sam Caitlin, one of the writers, was interviewed two separate times by two different websites/publications, both on scene during filming two different episodes. Both interviews reveal minor spoilers for the episode he was interviewed during. As far as the first, I forget which episode and website (I believe ep 4 or 5) but he was also interviewed during filming of episode 14 ("Rabid Dog") by Zap2it.com (I'm not going to post a link to avoid spoiling anything, if you're interested - just google it). But both spoilers disprove the faux episode guide that is going around.

    Since you're so adamant that the spoiler is false, I'm going to read it. If you're wrong, I'm coming after you.

    ‘Breaking Bad’ Premiere Draws Biggest Audience in Its History

    Surrounded by a whirlwind of media coverage and critical praise, the AMC drama “Breaking Bad” began its final run of eight episodes on Sunday night with the biggest audience in the show’s history, 5.9 million viewers.

    The hugely discussed episode – it was the subject of more than 750,000 messages on Twitter on Sunday – proved its potency in the category most desired by many television advertisers: viewers between 18 and 49 years old. The episode reached 3.6 million viewers in that group, the second-best number of the year on cable television, topped only by another AMC hit, “The Walking Dead,” which hit 8.1 million in that category.

    The total audience was up more than 100 percent from the previous season premiere for “Breaking Bad,” 2.9 million total viewers.

    “Breaking Bad” has been the standard-bearer for the television trend of “binge watching,” so an increase was to be expected as new viewers have been joining the series. But few shows more than double their audience in their final season.

    Keep in mind episode 2 is probably on point because AMC sent out screeners for both eps... But you should be smooth sailing after that

    Will Jessie ever find out about the Brock poisoning?

    Would give him a better reason to tell Hank.

    Wow, seriously? More people watch The Walking Dead than Breaking Bad?

    Yeah, I got that part but who's meth though? The crew that Walt said say my name or someone in Europe?

    Only way would be if Walt or Saul told him and it doesn't seem in either's best interest to do so.

    I can believe it. I never got around to Breaking bad until about a year ago when I sat down and watched all 4 1/2 seasons in like three days. The Walking Dead had so much money pumped to advertisement and I can imagine that parents are more keen on their kids watching zombies rather than drug making.

    Breaking Bad doesn't have the female appeal that Walking Dead does. There aren't nearly the amount of female characters, for instance.

    Also, the casual audience just wants to see lots of blood and mindless zombie killing, they don't care for a character driven plot like Braking Bad.

    I was actually thinking Walt gave the cooking to Todd. Maybe the other crew. But it wouldn't make sense that it is Czech, since Lydia's plan was to compete with them.

    After the Walking Dead killed off Shane, I stopped following the Walking Dead as it became way to predictable.


    I discovered Breaking Bad about 7 months ago. I finished 1-4 in about 2 days. That addicted. Story line is amazing and I am just completely impressed by how this is all going down.

    That small pill of Ricin has been around so long.....must have some importance.

    Unless if you like a thief in Walt's sister in law or a wife that cheats on her husband. The females in Breaking Bad show are unlikable characters compared to Carol, Maggie and Michonne.

    I started watching this show during the summer because of its "Top 3 TV show ever" rating on IMDB. During the first two seasons or so I thought this show was terribly overrated. But since then it has come together nicely and of course, in retrospect, the first seasons were necessary. It's still not my favorite show, but it's very very good. The ending of the last episode was fantastic.

    As was this scene.

    I can't remember from the season finale, but was Jessie there when mike died? Did he know that Walt was lying to him?

    no he wasn't there, and he doesn't know but suspected Walter killed him as you saw in the premiere.

    Wrong IMO.there are no likable character in walking dead other than Daryl. Maybe if you prefer one dimensional, uncomplicated girls, then you would prefer those in the walking dead. Breaking bads females have way more depth
