How many times has Walt successfully come up with some chemical bomb and blown someone up? Even this season I wouldn't say the series has become full of "action". It revolves more around the suspense of who'se going to make the next move and what choices the characters are forced to make. I think the last episode had its issues, but as a whole the pacing of the show is terrific and certainly intriguing enough to keep you coming back for more. That's all I can really ask of a show.
