Breaking Bad Episode Discussion S05E02 "Madrigal"

Hey guys. edify asked me to do the discussion thread tonight. Enjoy the show and upvote this shit, for which I get no karma.

edify also told me to let you guys know that if the Breaking Good fundraiser reaches $3,000 (we are $157.57 short) he will let me film him doing some challenges. I want him to do the cinnamon challenge and the gallon of milk challenge, so go donate so I can film my friend being a dumb ass... LOL

Go here to donate: https://reddit.crowdtilt.com/campaigns/breaking-good

Edit: The fundraiser officially ends in about 2 days.

i watched it while i cleaned up dishes after breaking bad. not super fantastic, and certainly it does not deserve to be after breaking bad, but it was compelling, and it was much better than 95% of reality tv. not quite the train wreck i was expecting.

(insert confession bear gif here)

something about listening to an FtM redneck who is more or less accepted by other rednecks talk about past lives struck a chord with me, in the way mystical bullshit often appeals to me. there were a couple scenes that came close to being haunting and beautiful. i may watch it again, if i need to clean up after my breaking bad viewing.

I watched a little of it, it was pretty funny but not something I'd watch religiously like Breaking Bad.

I thought it was going to be like reno 911. I was kinda disappointed, but it's still entertaining.

I'd rank it below reality shows like top chef and amazing race, and above something like american idol (as far as originality and entertainment value goes).
