    It's because you're an idiot. Don't worry most fans of this show are the same.

    I guessed the who poisoned the boy, why, with what, and the reasoning behind it while everyone else thought it was Gus.

    The Hank situation predictable.

    Jeese break down and drug habit increasing.

    Ect

    The show is predictable... but I'm not an idiot so it comes easy to me.

    What? NO ONE thought it was Gus. It's called Dramatic irony and foreshadowing. You were SUPPOSED to know that it was Walter, at least be able to make a strong argument.

    And what Hank situation? There was no guessing as to what was happening, so I don't really get where you're going with that either.

    You're telling me it was predictable that Gus would poison an entire cartel and himself?
    It's predictable that Walt's wife would have handled the news of his ? dealing as well as she did? If so, what in her character gave that away, because her evolution took a great turn AFTER she found out, because who she was before gave no clues of it.

    The ? you're calling "predictable" is actually just really good storytelling. You just don't understand it.

    ? are so used to lost and M. Night Shyamalan that they think every story should have all these twists and turns.

    The cancellation of Bent stings a little less today for Jesse Plemons, as Friday Night Lights' mumbling, mediocre-music-playing soul has just landed a major recurring role in the fifth season of Breaking Bad. According to the exclusive report from TV Line, Plemons will play a guy named Todd—" a dependable, innocuous, working-class guy" who turns out to be something different than what he appears to be, with his big head and his dumb baby.

    i hope i can still take the show seriously now that Landry has been cast. my first guess is that he's either a narc or a dealer

    apparently, they filmed some scenes in Germany, which is where Madrigal Electromotive (the parent company of Gus' chicken restaurant) is located

    i finally caught up on all 4 season and this show is the ? . the irony in the episodes if great. I wonder if they have a scene when Walter spills the beans about poisoning the kid and killing Jesse's girl. Creating a situation where Jesse kills him to end the show

    I think somehow the whole family finds out Walter is a cook and they end up all being cool about it


    It was funny as ? to see Saul hire Lavel Crawford as his security

    the thing im tripping on is, what kinda person just sits there trying to guess whats gon happen next? I mean, that takes all the immersion away if you just trying to guess what the next scene gon be...

    maybe im old fashioned or "dumb" but i still like being surprised...i aint bout to watch 12-20 episodes of a show only to guess whats gonna happen after every line...thats the writers job to come up with the story...my job as a viewer is to sit back and watch...

    Co-sign. Especially w this GOAT show, I'd rather be surprised

    Can't wait! I wonder how Mike is going to react to Gus not being around and the "reason" Gus is not around.

    Actor Jeremiah Bitsui who plays Gus's erstwhile henchman Victor on AMC's Breaking Bad, talks to AMCtv.com about what it's like to get killed on set and why he gets recognized in unlikely places.

    BB-S4-Jeremiah-Bitsui-Victor-325.jpg

    Q: The box cutter! What was it like getting your throat slit in the Season 4 Premiere?

    A: They brought me into a special effects house in North Hollywood and fitted me with the prosthetic that went around my neck. We practiced the choreography and we did a bunch of tests to see how the squirting was. I would get a little sponge bath in between takes but still there was blood on everything. There was so much blood shooting it that day that by the end of it my underwear was soaked. I've never done anything like that before.

    Q: Were you bummed that your time on the show was over?

    A: I was originally going to be in only one episode in Season 2, so when I found out that I was in Season 3 I was amazed. Everyone would look at me like I was a dead man walking because most bad guys hadn't lived that long up to that point. I was just thankful to have died that way rather than in a big gun fight and just been randomly shot.

    Q: That scene inspired a lot of strong reactions, was it hard for you to watch as a viewer?

    A: Yeah, you know up until that point I'd never died in anything before. As a viewer the first time I watched it was the premiere in LA. Everyone was shocked and freaked out. It was a little eerie, the tone in the room.

    Q: We don't learn much about Victor outside of his work for Gus. What did you imagine him to be like?

    A: I didn't see him as a thug. I thought of him maybe as just a younger guy with a military background. Maybe he knew a lot about arms, explosives and warfare. I thought of him being comfortable with being a utility or tool, but of course later you realize that Victor does want to be higher up in the food chain. I grew up in and out of Albuquerque and I knew a lot of no-nonsense guys from somewhat shady backgrounds, so I had a wealth of people and characters to draw on.

    Q: How did you land the role as Victor? Were there any other roles you auditioned for?

    A: When I first read for Breaking Bad, it was actually a different role. This girl got it and I met her in the audition, but I had wanted that role. When I left the audition the casting director ran out -- and this was a signature thing for her -- and she grabbed me and was like, "We want you to read for another role." She gave me this cold read for the character that became Victor.

    Q: Does anybody ask you about what it was like to play a bad guy on Breaking Bad?

    A: Victor never really did anything horrible -- he wasn't like a gross character -- but what was amazing was a lot of people would come up and be like, "Oh you were so bad, you were so mean." And I was like, "I never did anything or killed anybody!" When I create a character that is considered kind of a bad guy, I always try to find their redeeming qualities.

    Q: You've acted in a bunch of big productions like Natural Born Killers. Has your role as Victor given you the most visibility?

    A: Yeah, you know. I was really blessed enough to have been a part of Natural Born Killers, but Breaking Bad was awesome. The amount of times I'll get recognized in the restroom is really funny. Some guy this weekend was like, "Yo, Vincent!" and I was like "um," and he was like "Oh, Victor!" The three places I'm most recognized are Albuquerque, New York and the restroom for some reason.

    Yea I was too, its basically like having 2 seasons though, I know its gonna be a crazy cliffhanger after episode 8

    Season 1 was only 7 or 8 episodes so its like having 2 more.

    They REALLY need to give us one of those event episodes. Hopefully the series finale is 2 hours
