it's realistic.

in real life, when jimmy "breaks bad", it's going to be a moment at a funeral that changes his mind.
in tv life, it's walter white blowing shit up on the 2nd floor of Tuco's drug den, WAY over the top and highly entertaining.

so this show is way more realistic.

My biggest fear - not to be morbid - is that Jonathan Banks, the awesome actor that plays Mike, is going to get sick or pass away. He's 68 and IMO has aged terribly over the past 5 years (in real life). Watching the final last night, I wondered what happens if he gets sick/passes away. Do they replace him? just end the series? I'm sure he has the best healthcare in the world, but he just looks awful and i fear that could be the only thing to derail the show

I'm sure they can squeeze 3 to 4 seasons out of this show, and the show will get better even.

there are shows when Odenkirk as Jimmy is absolutely riveting.....and then there are other shows when you wonder if he can carry the show himself.....I think the show goes 5 seasons.....and then they will do like they did with "bad"....break up the last season into two so they can milk it...

The writing is amazing and is the true star of the show

yeah, some weak moments. but there were times when walter white was less-than-enthralling, like when he tried to act like he was outright dumbfounded by a fly, or burning his own money in the grill.

I think as long as they keep giving up episodes of mike, gus, tuco, whoever... they can cover for the weak jimmy time. Mike wasting those 2 crooked cops was some of the best tv we've seen this year.

Plus, once he 'breaks bad' as they hinted, he'll get into prime Saul shape soon. Season 1 might be looked at as the slow one.

This. Still haven't had a chance to watch the last episode. Not expecting anything earth shattering.

Thought the finale was one of the weaker episodes of the season, but still a great show would watch again.

I give it a C+ for what it is. Turned out to be too much like regular Law dramas. Not sure why they decided on the lesbian actress with the husky voice to be his love interest. I know they wanted to to show the progression or should I say regression from trying to be straight to how he became Saul, but it didn't need a full season or 8 episodes. They could have did it in 4 then spent time on his sleeziness instead of waiting until next season. Also hate how they showed him at cinnabun at the start but never visited the storyline again. Would love to see more before and after breaking bad shit. At times I found myself watching this while I was just bored. Overall it was just a forgetable season and new show.

I think it depends on whether or not Cranston and the rest want to do more in the future...If Byan Cranston is not doing anything a year or two from now, they may want to do some more...and "Look he wasn't really dead, you see..."

However if Bryan Cranston is not inclined..."He's dead..."
