If not done well, that scene could have been jumping the shark. But, they pulled it off.
Jesse and Walt are either the luckiest damn crime duo ever, or they're just television characters...
That show is like the Sopranos. I didn't question a damned thing until the ending of the final episode where the writers basically explain to you that they've only been fucking with you the whole time. What happens doesn't really matter. It's all about the ride. And, the ride's no fun if Tony loses...
Would love to know what makes me believe shows like Breaking Bad and The Sopranos whereas most TV shows I watch and sit there and go, "pfffffffft" the whole time.
