Considering how much of the plot was essentially already laid out, I thought it was extremely well done.

To each their own. Liked it, didn't love it.

Kudos to Strat for calling it about Lydia.

I called

Badger and Skinny Pete as I watched the episode
so I think that was way cooler.

Also that [expletive] song choice. So good.

Not that difficult if you were paying attention to the opening credits ;-)

Yep. LOTS of great song choices throughout the season, and series really. The theme song last week at the end of the episode was bonerific.

The only part I could do without was the call from Lydia...that was a little too much of a coincidence in timing etc.

It was extremely well acted, of course, and you could feel the unbridled anger of Jesse as he saw his shot at Todd. I liked how they did that, as for my money, Todd was the most evil character on the entire show.

Walt took a lot of chances that they wouldn't just kill him right off the bat, as had a decent possibility.

Todd was really starting to turn into Heisenberg, and his puppy love for Lydia was evidently starting to get him more attention from her.

I love what they did with the Gray Matter people. Perfect. I was hoping he wasn't going to murder them, and then he came up with something genius and got Badger and Skinny Pete back in the show.

I'm happy with that finale.

Loved the music or whatever you'd call it when the lasers came on. It was almost more like a sound effect - "fwoom..fwoom."

The podcast I listen to had a finale party and was only about an hour away in Anderson (apparently a big meth hub) so I went. Got some blue meth candy and some breaking bad fridge magnets (because "magnets [expletive]!")

I didn't see the thing with Eliot and Gretchen coming, and I'm also glad he didn't take them out.

I did think Gilligan was going to leave Walt pissed at Jesse until the end, and that he'd try to kill him.

Is Walt pissed at Lydia for a particular reason or just looking out for his family?

Also - weren't there explosives in the trunk at one point? They showed some boxes in there, but someone told me they were ammo
