    Do it yourself Wink It's very easy. Quote billy's post and see how he did it. It's basically the same stuff for quoting a post, except you replace the word quote with code.

    Regarding the episode

    Blah. That was a stupid cliffhanger. I loved the episode on was freaking out during the last ten minutes, but srsly. Hank and Gomey should have died as soon as the fire started. And to stop it all there... The only way to redeem it would be to have them both die off-screen, and cut straight to their dead bodies at the start of next episode. That would be awesome. Otherwise it's just stupid.

    Anyway, RIP, Hank. I was seriously rooting for you and now I have no one.

    Thanks naerys

     And there I was thinking that Todd's uncles gang will be the fall guys in the last episode, I mean who really cares about neo-Nazi, aryan brotherhood type of gangsters, but no they are in the firing line right now - do not see how credibily Hank and friends will survive the onslaught, but the makers have contrived get outs convincingly many times before.

    Just hope the last episode does not have a dud ending - that would be the worse.

    Yesterday's episode - Lydia's lipstick on the mug, Todd looks at.

     You were rooting for Hank?  god I loathe him too.  I'm actually not rooting for anybody, just glued waiting for the outcome.  I'm not even feeling sorry for Jesse anymore, not using the police to back him up anyway, or handing over control of his phone and his life to Hank.  Just seems to have taken the weak "someone tell me what to do here" option.  

    If I feel sorry for anyone, it's walt's son, because he will be devastated when this all comes out.  :(  

    However totally agree, what a shit ending.  Really wasn't expecting such a dud cliff hanger.

    Worst part is...I was seeing all day on fb that people were watching the Breaking Bad finale, so I watched it thinking it was th actual finale, and when it ended like that, I was so fucking confused that I had to google if it was the god damn finale.

    Does nobody understand what a fucking FINALE is FFS?  ;D

    So he finally told Jesse about Jane. I suspected it would come out. It was too big a secret not to be used by them. To be honest, I just feel numb after that.

    I hereby apologise to all fans of BB for previous transgressions in the realm of spoilers. I remember the Spoiler Alert Segmentation in Big bang Theory, where Sheldon spoils Harry Potter for Leonard but the one I want to draw an analogy from, eludes me, it is the one that Sheldon complains about the fact that, Stuart, the comic-book owner spoils the fact that there is a surprise in the comic book he is purchasing, berating him for not letting him find the surprise all by himself. Stuart spoils the surprise.

    Earlier I had read Naeryses' comment.  I thought why why spoil the surprise for me? Lol


     So watching it with Naeryses' comment in my head, I thought where I would I judge it in terms of my tv viewing, bear in mind I missed the buzz for Sopranos and The Wire or Prison Break or Dexter or battlestar galatica lol. Anyways at certain stages I was still thinking that some episodes of Dallas, ha, Blake7, deffo Lost still had an edge. Until the scenes involving Skylar and Marie and Flynn (again?)- when he first finds out, they leave you in a daze, it feels surreal, electric atmosphere, it won best episode. (unless I remember anyother)
     
    This was yet to topped off by the scene when Skylar and Flynn (again)confront Walt. The kidnapping of his own baby would have been a cliffhanger in itself any other time/series/dimension.

    An episode without Saul? Perhaps things were beyond fixing. But as Walt, leaves at the end, no doubt Saul has had a hidden hand, hidden from appearing. I thought his absence made the episode better, Saul is good but in small doses, the proposed spin-off, will tell or not.

    So no convincing contrivance to at least keep Hank alive. Though the producers gave you hope, before those famous last words ( I got told the same last week lol). And gone. A lot happened in a short time and I only thought of marie when Walt sat back in the car. The scenes involving Skylar and Marie and Flynn when he first finds out, leave you in a daze, it feels surreal.

    One scene in my series of 'stills' is when Walt meets the Native American, with his barrel of money (those Nazis really do have a heart of gold really), Walt gestures towards the van asking him if he owns the minitruck, it stuck out that the Native American looked in the direction of the only vehicle for fricken miles around.

    Walt's paternal instinct towards Jesse disappeared last episode, this week any chance of a reconciliation was buried six feet under when Walt confessed to seeing Jane die. Jesse never trusted Todd (unless otherwise told) after he killed the kid on the bike, he told Walt that Todd was bad news.

    To put the cherry on top of the icing on top of the cake, the phone-call - the mixed/conflicting emotions within and between every character in the room and Walt was like layers and layers of thought/motivation/instinct.

    A final note - Holly, the baby in breaking bad, I said she deserved a mention in an earlier episode this season, then I read it was a doll they used for the crying scenes, but she had two scenes to nail, and boy oh boy did she nail them. Longing for her mother, she actually says mama mama - the lips move- who know with todays technology, but she managed it with a face that misses her mum, and then she executes the directions 'look worried, like as if you don't know why it is happening to you, hide your face a little when the stranger opens the door, and you just want to go home. Best of baby section. Do they list her as a credit? Too young surely?

    If anyone wants some more Hank, he's currently playing a bad guy in Under the Dome. Supernatural mystery based on a Stephen King novel. It's not even nearly Breaking Bad, but it's decent light entertainment. Drama, sexy people and the occasional bit of acting.

    I'm glad Dexter is over in a way. I think I've only really been watching it out of loyalty. It lost its way after the Trinity killer storyline, never really recapturing the chemistry that made it work so well. Their biggest mistake was giving Dexter feelings. Completely neutered the character.

    I just started watching a new TV series based on Romance of the Three Kingdom, Sān Guó Yǎn Yì, called Three Kingdoms. This is the brand new series not the 90s version, which I have seen as well. I have been interested in Eastern literature for the last few years due to school so a classic like this put to screen was a must watch for me. While it is not on par with many shows due to the many battle scenes that require hundreds of extras it does have its moments during dialogue between characters in most scenes. I thought Chen Jianbin did an excellent job humanizing Cao Cao who is normally portrayed as the worst of villains.

    Lately I've been watching The Good Wife. I don't think I've ever been more addicted to a TV show. I've already burned through season 1.

    I love smart, classy, sexy, brilliantly written legal drama like this. I don't understand even half of the jargon and shoptalk, but I understand the moves being played and I'm absolutely hooked on the plotting and political intrigue.

    I especially love Kalinda, the in-house investigator. One of the best femme fatale characters I've ever had the pleasure of watching work.

    Wow, Naerys you are right. Not only do I like Mad Men, I'm in love with the concept of the show and its themes.Watching it on HD made it so much better. Whoever says the show sucks or its overrated deserves to be stoned. I'm on season 4 now, besides Don obviously, Peggy and Joan are my favourites.

    The other shows I'm watching are;

    The Wire season 4; that show is amazing and addictive that I can't believe I slept on it all this while. None of that fancy bullshit from CSI and others, this show is as real as it gets. Best Crime/Investigative/Political Drama I have ever watched. I would love to find another fan whom I can talk about the show extensively.

    -Downton Abbey; almost done with the season 4
    -Weeds season 5

    Borgia is the next show I will watch once I'm done with one of the aforementioned shows.
