I don't know, I feel like the show is starting to lose its gritty down to earth vibe and starting to look too cliche, too Hollywood and ehmm... too unrealistic.

OK let me explain... at the beginning the story was about a regular guy pushed to venture past his boundaries. But even then, the story had a sense of "realism." Example: remember when they were cooking in RV and dissolving bodies in acid, they had to solve realistic problems (who knew, its quite difficult to find a plastic bathtub big enough if you want to give dead body an acid bath). It was a drama, it was a fiction, but you thought "yup I can see this happening in real life (in America

Now? They have the equipment, knowledge and manpower to do elaborate heists (the huge magnet, the equipment they use when they cook, the shenenigans in Hank's office, machinery, equipment and tools for the train robbery etc etc). Everything they need is conveniently within their arm's reach. I mean why don't you rob a bank and get it over with?
