Halfway through the season and still on OT1? I'm disappointed.
I don't think I could wait, but I also wouldn't want to spoil it for myself, THIS IS THE END BRO, YOU MUST NOT SPOIL IT FOR YOURSELF. I have faith in you.
No, stay out of this thread. Don't have AMC on at any point between that time. Stay off Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram.
It's easy to get spoiled if it's just a "normal" episode. If something crazy happens, the internet will go berserk. The only way to avoid spoilers is to stay off social media or have zero context for the show.
Yeah, I think I'm going to go on a one-day social blackout until I finally get the chance to sit down and watch the episode. One good thing is that people at work either don't watch Breaking Bad or, shockingly, have never even heard of it. I'll just log out of Facebook and Twitter and make sure I avoid this thread at all costs - and possibly the BritGAF thread, as we love a good chat about Br Ba as much as the next person.Breaking Bad episodes air in EST 9:00 PM Sunday evening, which is 11:00 AM Monday morning here, when I'm at work.
I think it'd be in my best interest to leave my phone at home on Mondays starting tomorrow to avoid the temptation to check Twitter, GAF, anything during that time. Total blackout until I can come home and watch it.
I am a British person but I'm on early shift tomorrow until 2:30pm so I won't have time to watch it in the morning or in the afternoon on the commute home. The earliest I'll be able to watch is 6pm. Eep.Welcome to the life of any British person.
The limit is 20k posts, right? If so, I think we'll be good through tonight's airing.
But yea, we'll have a thread for the last 3-4 episodes. Then the post-finale thread will surely be alive for months to come.
Depends on how many people feel the need to post "OHHHHHH FUCK" and "HOOOOOOOLY SHIT!".
never understood the reason to post while the episode is still on

I agree, but the timing is a little better if we switch over now rather than at some arbitrary time next week when conversation is in full flow.The limit is 20k posts, right? If so, I think we'll be good through tonight's airing.
I personally think an entirely new thread should be created specifically for the finale. I mean, let's face it, this is a pretty momentous moment in television history, there's no denying it. All the media and magazines are labeling it as one of the biggest finales ever so it's only right we honor that fact and create a new thread purely for discussion on the final episode.I'm pretty confident we will need another thread after the finale.

They're all big at this point.Wait, tonight's episode is a big one? I won't be able to watch it until Monday evening, so this could cause...problems!
They're all big at this point.
Yeah I figure they're all huge episodes tonight but I have an inkling that todays big episode will be semi-setup for the HUGEEEE one next week. Just going by episode titles, director of the next episode, and also the teasers before the second half started.
The tagged item is relating to the episode name for 14 only, no 'actual' spoilers.Agreed. But, while I'm by no means complaining (I've loved the second half of season 5 so far), we haven't quite reached the heights of "oh shit wtf"-ness that I expected yet.
At the end of each episode so far I've thought "okay, that was amazing, and it seems to be setting up something even bigger for next week". Here's hoping this week is 'that week' that I've been waiting for!
EDIT 2: Wait a review went out!? Probably time to make use of Haji's Quick Vanish to remain unspoiled. Hopefully there's nothing too big (and hopefully nobody decides to seek a sadistic glee by posting anything related to it here)
Heh, fair enough. I suppose when one of the main cast members gets clipped, that'll raise the stakes even more.Agreed. But, while I'm by no means complaining (I've loved the second half of season 5 so far), we haven't quite reached the heights of "oh shit wtf"-ness that I expected yet. I realise this sounds ridiculous given we got a Hank/Walt confrontation, the confession, Jesse finding out about Brock, nearly burning down the White residence, confessing everything to Hank, and Walt ordering a hit on Jesse, but still...
They're all big at this point.
Working on it right now.Which is why someone should PM the mods to get this sucker closed up and get that new one going before tonight's episode, like you said.
I've always been one for clever, creative thread titles.I have a feeling that the new thread title might not fit the topic name character limit. Breaking Bad - Season 5, Part 2.5 - The Final Eight Episodes - Sundays on AMC
