I bought five box sets of this for half price from HMV before they collapsed. Bargain!

They haven't collapsed yet, stores are still open. They'll probably be cheaper in a few weeks

What do you mean where's the teddy?
I didn't say "where's the teddy"
I said "Where was the teddy" as in where was it in the show? Was there a teddy in the show?! If not then why the fuck are we on ABOUT TEDDIES?!

have you seen Season two? If you have, and you cant remember the teddy bear, you're taking too many drugsI didn't say "where's the teddy"

season 2, in Walt's swimming pool, also surprised you don't remember, it was prominent in scenes in quite a few episodes in the show including at least one pre-credit sequence though I think more than one.

Why did you buy 5?

Yeah I've seen season 2, ages ago, and yes, I take too many drugs. I can't even remember what happened in S4 goddamit. The good thing about drug induced alzheimers is you can watch stuff like this over and over again and it never gets old or tired. You do look a bit of a plonker when discussing it on forums later on, and not remembering key parts though, granted.

The teddy was part of the debris from the air crash that fell in the Whites' pool. Used to mysteriously foreshadow the coming disaster.

I don't like to do much thinking around xmas
Mum & mum's bf, wife's mum and dad, brother in law, other brother in law, brother, and none of them had seen an episode.
My mum is particularly hooked now... fully methed up.

What's the significance of 1, 4, 10 and 13 though? Didn't 10/13 used to feature in the X Files a bit, Vince Gilligan's mother's birthday or something?

Oh, right, they're the episodes that feature the teddy bear in the opening sequence...

Half way through S2, and tbh I'm starting to waver.
Main beef: there's just no-one in it who I like enough to be drawn back, to find out what might happen to them.
Walt has gone from being interesting and complex, to being pathetic and utterly vile. I'm finding Skyler 95% unsympathetic. Junior Walt - meh. Who? The DEA BIL - seems to've been plugged in for comedy skits. LOL copper, basically, but utterly uninteresting as a character.
The only half-way to saving grace is Jessie. And I'm not finding that there's enough of him in each ep to really make me give a fuck / keep on coming back.

Jessie is the heart and soul of the show. Dont worry, you will get to see more of him.
And if you think walt is vile now......
you could get a free trial subscription to netflix and watch it on there.
See, that just doesn't make me want to watch it. 'Cunt becomes cuntier.' Yeah, ok. Right.
I haven't completely stopped watching yet. And I don't think it's bloody awful. So I'm unkeen to put forward a devil's advocate / entirely black and white argument.
So, yeah. I'm just finding it a very unsympathetic prog at the moment, with not enough of much to keep me coming back.
e2a:
That's exactly what I'm doing. At the gym / just now on a bike attached to a turbo trainer in my office!
