I'm rewatching Breaking Bad for the first time since they came out. Maybe it's because I know how it ends but my perception on it now is very different to how I remembered the show. In my mind there was a long arc for Walter from good to bad. But he's pretty awful from the get go. It's all there, they just do a very good job helping the viewer rationalise some of his worst actions. Jesse is also very different to how I remembered him. He's extremely broken, a manipulative addict who lies constantly to everyone and blames the world for his mistakes. Over time he starts to take more responsibility as Walter takes less and less. Maybe everyone saw this the first time around but if anything this rewatch makes the series even stronger than the first viewing for me. Alright. Back to it.
