I love how I love characters, and how I hate them. Throughout the course of the show so far I've loved Jessi, I've hated him. I've loved Walt, I've hated him. It's "real" in the way humans are, no one is always the hero, no one is always the villain, and things can change quickly.

One question, how much time has passed in the world of Breaking Bad since season 1 to now?

It seems like maybe 6-8 months, maybe more. I love the fact the narrative of the show isn't rushed to go along with real world time. It's allowed a much more natural flow to the show, and allowed ideas and story arcs to be fleshed out. In the latest episode Badger and Pete were talking about Call of Duty: World at War, which came out in 2008. Hopefully this is all by design, because it's a smart idea.

The only drawback is the son, Walt Jr, is aging, and doesn't look like the 15 year old he is playing like he did in 2008, but a small quibble.

Brilliant show.

It's all that cereal he's eating at breakfast.
