I don't know how you guys feel, but I've been rooting for Walt to get away with all this shit, but now I'm shifting towards joining the Schrader/Pinkman team.[/QUOTE]
I'm actually the opposite now. I sure don't want Hank, Jesse or Gomez to die, but I did sympathise a lot with Walt, particularly when he tried so desperately to call the Todd Squad off.
Should we be tagging spoilers here? Or just assuming everyone's up to date

Regarding Gus, what I meant was that his introduction was awesome. The man in the shadows, never reveals himself unless necessary etc etc. Saul did not know his identity all this while and then suddenly everyone connected with the business is aware of Gus's double life. Even when he finds that Hank is on to him (the car bug) and even after his interview with the DEA, he does not care much about goign over to the old age home to meet Salamanca. it should have been safe for him to assume that he may be under surveilance....
Other than that, i do agree that his persona was pretty cool. The way he communicates with his expressions as much as with words is great.
The point [i]was[/i] that he was compromised because of his poor judgement, being too personally invested in the situation to be as calculated as he might be otherwise.

It's a shame that Giancarlo Esposito didn't win an Emmy for that role. Although Aaron Paul did instead.
The whole persona of Gus Fring comes across as the most polite, well mannered and well spoken law abiding citizen you could ever meet. Yet, he was a ruthless criminal behind all of that.

Finale started a bit slow, but in the last half hour things started to pick up pace.
The final showdown with the Neo Nazis left me breathless.

I found the final episode to be funny more than anything else. Everything Walt does was almost expected at this stage of the story (I don't mean how, just what).
And just discovered there are a few original minisodes related breaking bad on youtube...very very funny. check 'em out.

Maybe so, but I was enthralled the whole way through - his perfect manipulation of the Schwartzes, the hilarious reveal of Badger and Skinny Pete, his last moments with Skyler and his admission that he did it all for himself. But yeah, the last half hour totally blew it out of the water. A very satisfying ending.
