What was the significance of Walt Jr. having a disability? There had to be a reason for that right?
No clue but he has cerebral palsy in real life and I love him. Perhaps they played it up after seeing him audition? Totally clueless but he is awesome.

Oh, cool, I didn't know he had CP in real life. Maybe you're right. I was assuming that they wrote it into the script and I was thinking there had to be a significance to that.
There were so many episodes where I had to stop watching. Even a few times I had to watch Malcolm in the middle to feel better, lol. It was a good show though. I hated Hank. I was never as sad during the show as I was when Walt killed Mike. I don't even know why. Old men get me, I guess.
I had to take a long break after Ruby was born. It was just too much anxiety for me at the time. The scene where Jesse's gf chokes to death really, really scarred me.

I figured Walt Jr.'s disability provided a lot of the motivation for Walt's foray into the world of drugs. He wanted to ensure that Skylar and Walt Jr. would be provided for if he succumbed to cancer.

I think what got me is that I kept wanting to believe that Walt was mostly good. I kept trying so hard to think "he has cancer, he is trying to do this for his family, etc" but thennn he was just so fucked up. When he poisoned that kid I was in disbelief.
The show made me feel a little like a monster because no matter what how awful Walt was to the people around him(and in general) I was never able to stop rooting for him.

Agreed. I also liked Gus. He was crazy nutso but I liked the actor as a whole.

I honestly feel like it was the most well done show I've ever seen. I've never felt so much emotion from a show.
The first time around, I didn't like Gus. After re watching, he wasn't as bad as I thought. I mean, he was really bad, but who knows if he would've been loyal to Jesse after all. The part where he poisons himself was really well done.
I loved Mike and I started hating Walt after he killed him.
I also love Saul.
Even though I hated Walt, I'm sad his family hated him at the end.

It was extremely well done and well written.
I feel like I need a palate cleanser after that show. I think tonight I'll be watching Frasier reruns lol.
We just finished binge watching the whole thing. The last season was so dark and I feel emotionally drained from it. But I loved the show and I'm so sad it's over. I feel like I've lost a family member!
I loved Jesse, Saul, Mike, and Marie (towards the end). H and I had disagreements about it, he always identified with Walt as trying to provide for his family, etc, but I never liked him.
I also felt really affected by Mike's death, Jesse's girlfriends' deaths (both of them) and all the baby kidnapping scenes. Ugh!! Especially the prison guys in Holly's room, and when Walt took off with her in the front seat without a car seat. She was such a cute baby/toddler.
Do we think they used the same baby for the whole show? She was adorable.
I also liked the dealers, Skinny and the funny one, what was his name. Beaver?

Remember the episode when Walt is telling his class about opposite chemical reactions or whatever? And how he said a drug that can stop pregnancy nausea can also have the opposite effect, ie. birth defects. I took that to refer to Walt Jnr. There was a later episode when Skylar said she didn't feel sick at all with Holly's pregnancy, unlike the first time.
Also Trudy do you know if it was the same baby they used for Holly for the whole series?
