Holly is a baby genius:

But in the restroom scene with Bryan, her mommy was just three feet away. And I didn?t script the baby saying ?Mama.? I scripted that Walter would come to it himself as he stood Baby Holly up and looked in her face and realized he was doing the wrong thing by her. And then, when he stood her up, and she looked over his shoulder at her 'Mama' and started asking for her, Bryan the consummate actor rolled with it. We just got some movie magic. It was just incredible. It was more than I could have hoped for ? it was like the moment that I wrote on meth.

Oof. That Andrea scene...


Haha...I mentioned the revised theme to Kinqsqueen right away. It was AWESOME. And yeah, has anyone suffered more than Jesse? Good lord the cruelty. And Todd...ooof, like Jesse said, dead eyed. Been rewatching The Shield lately because I remember how GREAT the ending of that was handled, yet it still left a void. I wanted to relive that ending to prepare for the ending of this show. It's gonna be glorious...and depressing...and so many other things AllAtOnce!!!!!!!! The countdown begins, just a shade under 7 days to go. See you all here next week.

By the way...despite Walt's behavior, did your heart break for him when he begged Robert Forster(nice to see him b.t.w) to stay?

Man, do they already engrave next years Emmy w/Cranston's name? (Although Jeff Daniels winning last night was a nice/well deserved surprise).

One of my favorite lines from last night was, "This couldn't have all been for nothing." Or something along those lines. Again, that's exactly what I've been wanting to hear since Season 1 or 2.

Also, Todd is as ruthless as they come yet he's always so apologetic about it. It's definitely a different spin on such a slimey bastard.
 
I loved the $10,000 for one hour scene with Robert Forster but how bout the Walter Jr. phone call scene? Now THAT was heart breaking.
 
Hey, guess who got all caught up on Breaking Bad this weekend just in time for the finale?

This has got to be the single most intense show I've ever seen in my life.

"Walt, you're the smartest person I've ever known, but you're too stupid to see that he made up his mind 10 minutes ago."

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
