I trust you opened it with a box cutter. What colour were the crystals in the little bag of desiccant?

Late to this thread but just spent the few weeks working through the whole thing culminating in the final episode last night.

What a great show! Didn't pull any punches, so many twists and turns and unexpected events. Interesting characters that weren't rushed and allowed to develop in their own time (good acting too - no obvious weak links at all). Very well filmed with some great direction. Well worth the praise people are giving it.

Recommended to anyone who hasn't started yet!
Snap! My other half and I finished it last night as well after several weeks of multiple episodes per evening.

I bought the boxset to watch it which came with a few bonus features - try and find the Breaking Bad alternate ending if it's on YouTube. Worth a watch if you have a spare 3 minutes.

Had a week off and did the whole series from beginning to end, in a week. Brilliant.

The fly episode was one of my favourite. It seems to totally polarize people

Were it a little less expensive I'd be tempted:

Finished last night. Amazing show.

Only one thing that didn't make sense

How did Walt actually get shot? Was it a ricochet bullet? From where he was laying I can't see any other explanation other than artistic licencse.

Great show, even greater production and promotion of the pretend brands. I never thought a show would produce a better pretend brand than Tyrell Corp. Just seen a Pollos air freshener in a car, then found them on ebay ! Might buy one to go with my 'More Human than Human' T Shirt (too much Bladerunner... Must watch something else...)

I have a Los Pollos air freshener, a "Better Call Saul" tax disc and mug, and a "Vamonos Pest" T shirt. I also have a Heisenberg Pez dispenser. All bought in Alburquerque when I toured the locations!

He's got it bad. Although I didn't know there was BB tours available ! In Dallas for work in the summer, might take a short flight to ABQ to have a look.... I'll pass on the Pez dispenser though.

Can't remember where I saw it, but the explanation was that he knowingly sacrificed himself for Jessie...

The machine gun in the boot was set to run just above a lying down Walt (to ensure he got everyone), when he dived on top of Jessie he was in the line of fire.

Just finished watching BB and I thought it was bloody fantastic. All the characters were played well. Thought the last episode was very well written. On to True detective now I think.

Good plan.
