Sneakpeek from S5 EI fellas. Walter Jr reacts to Gus's death.

Jesse: We've got to start cooking again. Hell Yes Bitch!!!!
Walter naah Heisenberg: There is a market to be filled and currently there is no one to fill.... :smokesmirk:
See Mike's reaction above.
Downton Abbey - Finished the 2 seasons. Mad Men is showing the america of the 60s and this is the England of the 10s - 1910s actually. This Mi Lady / My Lord is very contagious :lol: Maggie Smith (Lady Violet) is the Roger Sterling of this series. Hilarious one-liners. And Lady Sybil whattabeety. Unlike Mad Men where everyone is 'grey' this one has most in black and white.
One of the best TV series ever :clap:
Black and white?
Except the Arsenal fan (the heir, Matthew), and Manchester united fan (the cripple butler), every one else follow their self-interests. My Lord is very righteous, but you could see his chips falling down slowly. M'lady Junior II (Is she Sybil, I forgot the name) and Cataract Chef cook aside, the women ain't no different.
What I love here, is the lack of cynicism that you'd find in MM. But that's to do with the setting I suppose. This ain't 60's America.
Aunt Isobel (Heir's mother), Ana (Cripple's wifey), the now dead William, his one-night wife, Ms. Swire even Lady Mary - rombO nallavinga
Carlisle, Thomas, Mrs. Bryan (though there is shift towards the end), Ethel's FIL, Cripple's now dead (ex)wifey - rombO kettavinga.
Except very few like the lord, lord's wifey, Edith, etc., nothing much to write about *characters* per se. Not that Black/White is bad but they cease to interest me beyond a point.
Cynicism has been handled by Cousin Cora singlehandedly :lol:
Cousin Cora is cynical, but not a cynic, like entire cast of MM.
Like I said, following self-interests among all makes them interesting. Miss. Swire has her hand in Scandal to save her Father, I'd have thought they could have left some ambiguity there than to kill her. Did they do that because they didn't see good potential in the actress? Teleplay writers take such decisions as they go along. They do make up a lot as they go along in Downton in more ways than one. Lady Mary bedded someone in lust, and brings up on a bad name to the Lord. Ana wants to be with cripple man before he's properly divorced. William granted, but the one night wife isn't that *white*, she does follow Thomas and Miss Bryan for a while. Isobel annoyingly follows her own interests. Be as it may be noble. At times, it does seem she wants to annoy Cora more than she'd want to do Good.
This perhaps is the most difficult thing for a teleplay writer. You never know if there would be a next season. So, it is extremely hard really to build up or carefully contstruct characters. So they tend to make radical decisions sometimes. These kind of odd eccentricities make them interesting.Quote:
