@hexagram23, do you know if they're following through with the saul spin off series?

Still undecided and in talks with AMC.

I don't believe it though. Maybe I'm paranoid but I have a feeling Saul gets murked early in the last 8 eps, and the spin off talk is to throw us off. Keep in mind a script was stolen out of Bryan Cranston's car. The script was from the 9th or 10th ep. Directly after that Vince Gilligan is talking nonstop about he'd like to make a spin-off. shyt seems mad fishy to me.

For the record, the script was never recovered, but I've also never heard it leaked. The guy that jacked it got arrested but they never found it.

New Season 5B interview with Vince Gilligan:

'Breaking Bad': Creator Vince Gilligan spills on the final eight episodes | Inside TV | EW.com

When Breaking Bad left off last summer, tenacious DEA agent Hank Schrader (Dean Norris) was hot on the trail — and, er, toilet — of meth maker Walter White (Bryan Cranston). And when the revered drama returns with the second half of season 5 (beginning Aug. 11 on AMC), what should we brace for? Among other things, maybe a bit of self-reflection from the cancer-stricken chemistry teacher who transformed himself into a lethal drug kingpin with the help of high school dropout/partner Jesse (Aaron Paul).

“We often said in the writers’ room that if Walt had a superpower, it would be not his chemistry knowledge or his ability to cook crystal meth but his ability to lie,” series creator/executive producer Vince Gilligan tells EW. “Walt has been the world’s greatest liar, and I think the person he lies most capably to is himself. So in these final eight episodes, perhaps the lies will cease to find traction and the scales will start to fall away from Walt’s eyes. And when that happens, will Walt really begin to realize who he is? That’s a question that we asked ourselves a lot in the writers’ room this year.”

Of course, Walt won’t have too much time for navel-gazing, as he’ll need to keep his eyes on his brother-in-law Hank — in addition to other adversaries. “There will be antagonistic relationships aplenty,” promises Gilligan, adding: “Walt’s got plenty of fight left in him. And he’s got plenty of forces to fight. You met some of them. Others you haven’t.”

Should viewers brace for a high body count? “As the movie title goes, there will be blood,” answers Gilligan. “To my mind, that’s not the most interesting thing. It’s the emotional moments and the character moments. … We’ve got some stuff that I think is going to be truly satisfying and truly shocking and jarring. It does not always center on moments of violence.” And these moments will come flying at you at “breakneck speed,” he warns: “I have surprised myself at how much story there was left to tell and how quickly we tell it. You need to really settle down on the couch and pay close attention because it’s going to come at you fast and furious in the final eight episodes.”

Gilligan is both cautious and upbeat when it comes to discussing that highly anticipated finale. “We worked long and hard to ensure that these final eight — and, in fact, the very last episode — would satisfy an audience,” he says. “I am guardedly optimistic that we have achieved just that. And furthermore, trying to be as coy as possible, trying to give away as little as possible, I feel like this ending represents on some level, however small, something of a victory for Walter White. Read into that what you will. And try to be as open-minded as possible when you watch this episode, because it may not indeed feel like a victory. Or maybe it will. … I feel good about where it all ended up, and I can’t wait for people to see it.”

Asked for one last cryptic hint about the homestretch of episodes, Gilligan says: “Sometimes you see meth labs in the darndest places.”

There was a lot....and I mean a lot....of debate in the Season 5 thread last year about that. I'll tell you my opinion.

IMO he took the gun because he's still scared of Mike. You can see it when Mike steps to him and takes the bag. But he never intended to kill him.

In this ep Walt secured Mike's $5 mill, warned him about the DEA coming for him, and brought him his go-bag and money. When Mike is walking away that last time Walt blurts out "you're welcome!" because all he wanted was a "thank you". He wanted respect from Mike, for once. The name of the ep is "Say My Name", Walt expects the world to be on his dikk at this point.

The scene showed Mike would never respect him, no matter what he did. Then on top of that, Mike (correctly) tells Walt everything is his fault. They had a system, Walt fukked it all up.

Sure Mike played him before. Even tried to kill him. But this is the last time they'd interact with each other and Mike is shytting all over him. Walt, who has been feeling himself the whole season, murks him.

You can see it on his face immediately that he regrets it. Him getting emotional just proves what Mike's been saying. You killed Gus, but you'll never be him.

That's my take on it anyway.

Thanks. I caught that, but didn't think Mikes slight(s) rose to that level. I thought maybe Walt killing Mike was part of a scheme- tying up loose ends or something. Of course, Mike wouldn't snitch though, so...yeah.
