Madrigal
Ep #49 S5 Ep2
Only 14 episodes to go...
Breaking Bad is an outlet to what's lurking out there.
Madrigal Elektromotoren is just that. A company in Germany, lurking outside the American meth trade.
Are u f'ing serious? That opening was weird & intense. Mr. Shuler killed himself before we got to know him. Los Pollos Hermanos = Madrigal Elektromotoren. Mr. Shuler & Gus Fring, buds & deceased.
July is a weird month. Maybe that is why BB succeeds? Caters to a crowd starving for some good television.
Now back to Big Brother featuring Walter White & Jesse Pinkman. I don't think Walt would spend so much time w Jesse. Cleaning up his drugged out house. Looking for the Ricin cig. Just can't see that. Elaborate plan, but the ricin is still lurking.
2 episodes in & so far this is the best scene. Mike being questioned by the dynamic duo of Hank/Gomez. Mike knows exactly what to say & how to react. Mike the man, at his absolute best.
Madrigal's pace was swift & gave Jonathan Banks a script of a lifetime.
We were introduced to Lydia in the 49th episode. Lydia knows more than we do. She knows all the players & how the game works. On edge & capable of anything, she has Chow (S3 finale) killed. Mike calms her down & decides to join #TeamMeth in an unsurprising fashion.
Another excellent moment was ASAC George Merket speech. "Right under my nose," about Gus. Not sure how much we will see of George because he has to take the fall for the Fring fallout.
Madrigal ends with a creepy moment between Skyler & Walt. Walt speaks a good line, "no better reason then family."
Now to the weekly 8 questions:
Where is Marie? (No show for 2 straight episodes)
How did Mike's cop career in Philly end?
How much & Who, does Lydia know?
Did you buy the Ricin scene?
Is Hank thinking about who is right under his nose? Walt? Gomez? George?
How much money will #TeamMeth make?
Is there a better moral reason then family?
Can Breaking Bad finish on top?
Until next week #Jewfromovement ..

On Blast #1...
This goes out to @getnickwright
Man o Man are you a big fool. Leaving KC for bigger cow pies. Not a smart move.
2 years in drive time and the man thinks he is G-D's gift to Sports Talk Radio.
I put my over/under of 3.5years when he will make his return to KC.
Why would you leave right before #KC hosted an All Star game??
Kietzman made a statement and you let your hometown without a fight.
Just think how much you could have changed that conversation?
#Chiefs have a good nucleus. Pioli could be man handled if they are not competitive.
You had a chance to be a part of this stuff & yet u blew it. For what?
More Money? Maybe..
Better time slot? Heck no..
Bigger market? Of crap...
Now #KC is left with "The Big Show"?
How dumb do they think we are?
@getnickwright , you have been officially put on blast.
Thank you #jewfromovement

Breaking Bad Recap - Live Free or Die
Live Free or Die
S5 - Ep 1
Episode #48 in the Breaking Bad catalogue was not the most entertaining hour. However, the purpose of any premier, move the story forward. "Live Free or Die" did exactly that.
The opening was a nod to "Lost" , a flash forward. WW all by himself on his BDay 9-18 months since he successfully plotted & killed Gus Fring. At Denny's he meets a familiar looking man to pick up a Gun?
Most of the progress took place between Walt/Jesse & recruiting Mike onto the team. The mission, capture the lab top with evidence that they were all involved with the chicken man.
Mike, a very unique character, first appeared cleaning up Jane's death in S2 . That is also around the time that Gus's presence was being felt. Since then we learned Mike worked for Gus & was loyal. That created the friction between Walt, who was only loyal to his family. Jesse & Walt's relationship is comparable to Hank & Walt Jr's or the Uncle to a nephew.
The Skyler/Beneke story is hopefully done with. Total Snooze fest! Actually, Anna Gunn was over acting the whole episode.
Bob Odenkirk is in exceptional form as Saul Goodman. "Ethics" was the comment of the episode.
A little disappointed in the junk yard scenes. Under used, played down. Is something more there?
Lastly, We celebrated WW 50th BDay in the S1 premier. Now we are celebrating his 52nd BDay. That is what makes this TV show so unique. The use of time. Fast v Slow, Day v Night.
That brings up 8 questions..
Has the ABQ become too small?
Will they leave the ending so a movie can be made?
Could a movie be made of the Soprano's?
Is Gomez a spy?
Was it the same junkyard in S1?
WTF was up at the beginning of the episode? Beard? Hair? AK? NH?
Will the pace slowly pick up or have we only seen 6 months of Walt's life?
Can Breaking Bad finish on top?
Until next week #jewfromovement...

Slave 2 the DVR - Summer 2012
What I'm Watching Right Now:
White Collar
Big fan of the Neal Caffrey/Peter Burke duo. Tiffani Thiessen is solid. They have a good supporting cast and find interesting ways to mix some eye candy along with quality guest stars.
Hard 2 believe this show has started its 4th season. I was a little disappointed by the premier. However, I have hope they stay tropical a few more episodes before returning 2 the big apple.
Newsroom
HBO is past it's prime! They go for quantity v quality. HBO gave Sorkin the keys & he is taking full advantage. 2 much of a high brow/puffed up show 2 become a regular in the DVR.
Whale Wars
The campaign has not gone as planned for Capt Paul Watson, however, I have a feeling it's about to turn around. Japs v Pirates = pretty darn good REALITY TV.
What I'm Excited 4:
Breaking Bad
If you follow me on Twitter, you know my passion 4 Walter White & Jesse Pinkman. The meth cooking/dealing duo return tomorrow night. Come back here each week 4 my recaps of the final 16 episodes. I'm such a #BB nerd, I did a S1 & S2 rewatch 2 prepare 4 the final episodes. Hope 2 see your comments soon about the best show in my DVR.
Homeland Season 2
Terrorist, conspiracy theory and Claire Danes playing bat shit crazy. Me likey!

Random #ASG thoughts...
"If it were up to me I would call Kevin Johnson @KJ_MayorJohnson of Sacramento & trade the Wal-Mart Royals 'Straight Up' for Palm Casino Kings." @JewfroKC
My thoughts about #ASG in #KC..
Joe Posnanski @JPosnanski wrote a blog post about #KC being a great & under appreciated baseball town. He made some excellent points. However,#KC is no longer a baseball town. That needs to be repeated. #KC is no longer a baseball town!
If you believe that, you are living in the past.
Top 3 Reasons #KC is not a baseball town:
1. And The Home of the #KCChiefs..
A. When the #Chiefs are competitive #KC is alive.
B. #NFL is KING!
2. #BaseballSucks
A. Too many games
B. Bud Selig
C. No Salary Cap
D. No Instant Replay
E. Games are played at a snails pace
3. #TheGlassEmpire
I believe #Can0 should have been booed. I think the #KC fans took it a tad too far.
Twitter was at fault for #BooCano.
I believe Mayor Sly James @MayorSlyJames was the MVP of the #ASG. He outshined George Brett all weekend long. He made our city look very good. He was the perfect leader.
IMO, #BigSlickKC had bigger stars than the #ASG. @charliesheen = LOSER!
All in all #KC was a good host..
However, #KC messed up. We missed the opportunity to build the #RollingRoof. TY @RockhillStrat for the reminder.
Just think, after this wonderful two days, we could begin planning a future #SuperBowl
And a #Final4.
Now those events would get me excited....
