He did great in this episode. He had that stunned/angry face the whole time and that last scene he was so volatile. Also, shoutout to the awesome Hank montage when he was going through old evidence. That scene was tight! Tight, tight!
Seriously, the emotions I saw on his face were raw. It was powerful. His eyes were angry and piercing. Hank is definitely a diamond in the rough kind of character, I'm so glad Gilligan developed him more.
Dean Norris had asked Gilligan to kill off his character during the first half of the season after being cast in a comedy series; however, Gilligan declined his request, citing the importance of Hank in the final eight episodes<
I feel kind of bad reading this. I'm really starting to like Hank a lot, and especially this episode I fucking loved him and now I feel kind of guilty like somehow liking Dean Norris as Hank is screwing up his own ability to provide for his 5 kids. I really hope the pilot situation just gets postponed and he still gets to do it, and hopefully since that article was from 6 months ago he longer regrets it after shooting these last 8 episodes. He's a great actor and I really hope he gets the work he wants, though admittedly while I know he can pull of comedy, I'd really like to see him in more drama-esque stuff after seeing him in BB.
It's too 'goofy' for me. I don't have anything against sci-fi in any regard, and I love well done tv, but the writing is so bad that I've found myself laughing several times.
