This show has such a dope way of delivering things you expect, but still in a way that makes it feel like it's a twist. Not sure I can think of a better way to explain it. A lot of films and shows have plot points that you can predict, and when they land it's kind of like "I saw that coming and the execution was kind of flat." This show delivers on things you expect in such a satisfying way.

A fair amount of people predicted that there would be some sort of "worlds colliding" moment between Howard and Lalo that would end up with Howard dying, but there's still unanimous praise for how it was executed (no pun intended).

I don't know the specific writing technique for how they pull this off, but I love it. With a show like this you can see Howard twisting a soda can, and visualize a silencer being crewed onto a gun, and think "I bet that's on purpose." And it is. And it's dope as fukk.

I love that you can read hard into things in a super abstract way on these shows and have it pay off later on.

Season 5a was dumb. The Magnet shyt

I didn't mind the magnets too much. The show kind of takes place in a heightened reality. I think I read that somewhere. It's obviously not meant to be on a super hero level of reality, but there are elements that border on supernatural, and it's kind of accepted. The twins and Lalo for example have borderline supernatural abilities at times.

I think @hex pointed out that Walt's "plot armor" was written out to be a very overt and in your face part of the show. A lot of shows try to conceal that stuff, but BrBa threw it in everyone's face.

If kimmy gets a happy ending I'm gonna be like she can't keep getting away with it.

If the end is some shyt like Lalo catching up to them in the future, I'll be marking out.

I was #HowardGangGang for the longest.

I'm hoping this series ends with J&K in the dirt. We need that get back.

A way more interesting thread, true feelings on Breaking Bad final episode

No one cares about Walt's baby or his wife. That's the point. All we cared about was Walt and Walt died happy, winning in the end. A prideful murderer and drug dealer ultimately had his cake and ate it too. You're supposed to think it ended perfect because it did everything audiences are groomed...

"Ozark" is just "Breaking Bad" cosplay. C'mon now. These writers were doing surprise deaths before "Ozark" even started.

I agree it's Breaking Bad cosplay. And also the writers were doing surprise deaths before Ozark. But I still say that death had that Ozark feel. Maybe it's because I was immersed in that Ozark world recently.

Yeah I know what you mean here and with your previous post.

Also a big part of BB was Walt doing unexpected stuff because he was using his science background to solve drug dealer problems. Its not what most people would do in that situation, but its actually possible and its exciting to watch.

Howies death was a simple thing, but the circumstances preceding it are going to complicate things greatly. And also its so sad. The character writing on this show is amazing. Just like on BB you have a connection or sympathy for each character. I think thats really hard to achieve.
