Especially the last half of season 5. That was really an intense! I was actually rooting for Hank and hoping he would finally catch Walt but it sucked to see Hank die near the end >_> Walt's character and his slow transformation into a different person by the end of the series was really well done imo.

I absolutely loved this whole series and the ending basically tied up 99% of the loose ends. My only question is what happened to Andrea's orphaned son Brock? Does Jesse somehow adopt him or is he too busy being on the run from the cops forever? Does El Camino address this or nah?

So should I watch Better Call Saul or El Camino? Are they both good or eh?

Watch both, the order doesn't matter but you have a lot of BCS to get through.

And yes, both are very good (especially BCS)

Watch them both. I'd say watch El Camino now.

Better Caul Saul is fantastic, watch that too!

I just want to say that I hated Skyler and Lydia throughout the whole show >_> Definitely the worst characters on it

Hank, Walt, Gustavo are definitely my favorites. Even though Todd is a piece of shit, I did like his character and it was definitely unique, being some super relaxed professional crazy guy >_>

Better Call Saul is great. El Camino is aright. I guess you should watch El Camino first because the ending of Breaking Bad is still fresh in your mind

Fun fact, his daughter saying "Mama, Mama" was ad libbed by the actress. That wasn't scripted, but Bryan Cranston took advantage of it for that great scene

I recently rewatched the series, maybe my 4th or 5th watchthrough, and what really stood out this time is that there are a couple points with Gus where if Walt just kept his head down and did his job, everything would work out, but no. Every point where everything will work out, some character will proactively go out and fuck it up.

Not sure if Nelson Mandela effect but when Skyler says "I fucked Ted" does Walt respond "so did I" to her? I seem to remember this

Once the 2nd half of Season 5 started, I was praying that Hank lived to the end. I was so pissed/sad when he died

Weren't there titties when Jesse went to the strip club instead of buying the RV? That wasn't episode 1 was it?

If you like the actor (Jesse Plemons) you should check out Fargo (the TV series). He joins in season 2 but I recommend watching the 1st season first (1st season also has a Breaking Bad alumnus Bob Odenkirk).

Lydia didn't bother me too much, but yeah, I hated Skyler. People hated Skyler so much that the actress got death threats.

I definitely agree that you should watch El Camino while Breaking Bad is still fresh in your mind.

Yeah, Hank and Mike's deaths felt so bad. I also felt really bad about Jane (Jesse's girlfriend).

This is kind of explained near the end of the series, when Walt starts getting brutally honest. After leaving Gray Matter and his role in the creation of the company being downplayed, his ego was seething under the surface. He was sick of keeping his down and felt the need to prove that he was the smartest guy in the room in his own way. He didn't always focus too much on the long term ramifications of what he would cause. Been a few years, but I remember him giving a speech about it, realizing he was never really a good person at heart, and hating him more than ever, but also loving him more at the same time.

What happened to Saul's white security guy? He kinda just disappeared and they never explained why. Hank used his disappearance to manipulate Huell.

They leave his fate open-ended. The creator of the show has said Huell (Kuby/Bill Burrs partner) got picked up by the DEA for questioning. Thats probably what happened to him too; best case scenario he got away from it all and is probably engaged in petty crime again.

I was also kinda surprised how uneventful Walt's exit from Meth making was. Like Skyler tells him to quit and then the next scene he's like "okay I quit lol". I figured it would've been waaay more dramatic and eventful >_>

I mean afterwards he hits bumps with it and there is drama, but the actual quitting happening offscreen so quickly, I was like lolwut
