the show is in the archetype of a protagonist who makes a faustian deal. his morals were compromised but in the end walt and jesse did what they did based on their best intentions for each other and for the people they care about. i admit gale is kind of a stretch because walt was saving his own ass but you could argue he wasn't ready to leave his family on their own yet
as low and pathetic and desperate as they've gone i don't see them reaching gus-level diabolism, and if they did i'd be kind of pissed because i'd find it inconsistent with their core personalities. but hey, who knows. and at the end of the day, its just a tv show so whatevs |

That's the thing, I think Walt has to surpass Gus's level of diabolism... and what exactly is Walter's core personality? The dude standing in the road in his underwear? The guy who executes gangbangers? The guy who makes his brother in law believe that his wife is mortally injured? This is also a show about how far people will go under the right circumstances... I can see Walt killing a kid to protect his own kids. Jane was someone's kid. Walt is the one who knocks...
edit: one last thing folks, Vince Gilligan himself directed both End Times and the final episode which adds a sense of deliberation to scenes which might otherwise seem ambiguous http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_Tim...reaking_Bad%29 edit #2:http://forums.televisionwithoutpity....#entry14386557 Quote:

I'm pretty late because I'm of the opinion that tv generally sucks. It's also good to wait because then you can watch the majority of it in lumps instead of having to wait for the individual releasing of episodes.

can't wait for tomorrow. i actually regret not getting into this late so i could just see it all at once on dvd or netflix or whatever. hopefully it doesn't end on some killer cliffhanger.

I like the outstanding character development. Particularly Hank. Also, Skylar is a bitch.

I thought, in the moment, he jumped up and got away. Then the camera rotated. I really don't believe someone with half their head blown off can get up, walk out of a room, and adjust their tie before crumpling in a heap, but wow.

That was awesome, but I don't really see where the show goes from here. That felt more like a series finale then a season finale.
