Nobody's gonna take that away from you. Season 5 of Breaking Bad may be the best thing that's ever appeared on a tv screen. But c'mon, you gotta admit that plane crash-that's-barely-ever-mentioned-again thing was weird and dumb. Like when Landry kills a guy on Friday Night Lights (which I believe was also their season 2, and also blamed on the writers' strike, and then Landry shows up in season 5 of Breaking Bad OMYGOD I've cracked the code of the universe!).

Especially all of the foreshadowing teasers leading up to it. They were building up something huge that never came.

Exactly. The intro to every episode that season was a foreboding image of teddy bear pieces floating in a pool, implying something really important is coming. Then the crash happens, and that's it. Never mentioned again. Oh, I guess you see Walt with the bear eye a few times. Whoopdedoo.

I am just finishing up with SOA in a week or so.

Is Breaking Bad worth my time? Jesus Christ the way you guys sound, I shouldn't even waste my time because of seasons 1 and 2.

You'd be better off spending all day eating scrambled eggs and watching David Spade movies.
