waitingman... but L-SP & I have finally Broken Bad... We both watched the first season back in the day, I watched the 2nd one, but missed the start of the 3rd when the local TV network did what all networks do best - change the timeslot, don't tell anyone & keep repeating The Simpsons... so I gave up & thought I'd catch up with it on DVD, some day. Then, a couple of years ago, L-SP gave me (well... US, really!!!) the box set of the series &... it sat on the shelf until late last year. Not because we weren't interested, but mostly because there were so many other things we were watching, or catching up on & giving over a large chunk of time to 5 1/2 seasons of TV was too big an ask. Until it wasn't
Waiting so long did have its advantages. L-SP had forgotten the story from season 1 entirely & I'd forgotten season 2. And, of course, the rest of the whole thing was one big, unknown ride. Somehow, we'd missed, avoided, or maybe just forgotten any spoilers to the story, including its end, so were hooked right to the end of the last episode of the last season. The only thing we knew up 'til then, was that it probably wouldn't end very well for at least one or two of the main group. And, as the rest of you have probably known since 2013... it didn't
So here's to Walter White... one of the better anti-heroes ever written & wonderfully brought to life by Malcolm's Dad
