It wasn't a very good one considering the image says "treatment starts next week".

I didn't quite understand the humour of the original image. I think PIMking's punchline better suits the Canadian version.

My step dad had to wait a year before his Cancer Treatment started. He had to go to 3-4 doctors before the plan began the first was the GP then each other one was a specialist referral to get to the specialist referral to see the specialist. Canada, it might be free but you might die before you get it!

My friend's mom was diagnosed last march and didn't have to wait a week, treatment started right away.
Things must be drastically different in Alberta.

Honestly, I'd rather not see any previews.
I'd rather be surprised.
I'll either fast forward the first 30-60 seconds of any show that starts with a preview of tonight's episode or avoid the, stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.
Can't really explain it, I know they aren't going to show major spoilers or anything. I'm already going to watch the show and next weeks show, so I don't need to be shown what's coming up next.
For movies it's different, as trailers are required to sell that product.
Perhaps it's because I'm not emotionally tied to random new movies and their characters.

I think the confusion whenever I hear stories about wait times for this treatment or that and especially in the case of cancer is that people don't tend to realize that there are numerous different types of cancer. Each one is different. Some cancers can wait to be treated. Now waiting over a year seems extreme but something tells me that the patient had a little something to do with the wait. Another thing no one ever wants to acknowledge.

Can we not turn this thread into a ######ed debate about health care? That's what.

My mom was diagnosed with cancer just over 2 weeks ago and just finished her first treatment last Friday. She has had multiple biopsies and scans in that time as well.
The thing about the Canadian Health Care system, which I assume is what you are making fun of here, is that it tends not to screw around when someone's life is on the line, and the cost of that is longer wait times for some things.
Back on topic, I can't wait for Breaking Bad to start again. Since this thread has been bumped I have been getting twitchy in anticipation.
edit: I see this conversation has been already hashed out - feel free to disregard.

Anyway, so starting again at the last episode. How do things proceed once Hank gets off the toilet? Was the flashback to Hank and Walt discussing the "W.W." going on in Hank's head, or was that for the benefit of the viewer? I'll assume the look on Hank's face pretty much says he understood it, but still... leave it to the writers to pull something off.
I guess now though, what happens? Does Hank sit on this and start collecting evidence, or is he going to be so pissed that he comes out like an ape?
