Just finished watching second episode of the season here....
Random thoughts: Walter's getting more calculating and fixed in his plan of action, while Jesse continues to show he's the one of the two with anything of his conscience left. I love that about Jesse -- the constant, underlying turmoil and his struggle to do good and be good. While Walter is just the opposite -- shutting down his conscience and trying to practice being bad.
And I'm pretty sure that Hank ordering all those rocks -- I mean, MINERALS -- online means something. He's not just loopy. It has something to do with the meth and his still tracking down Heisenberg in his mind. Just not sure what's going on in Hank's mind but he's the cleverest lawman in the show by far. I'm not enjoying his pushing Marie away, but I figure it's mostly because she's distracting him and making him lose his focus.
Part of me is loving this series as usual, but another big part of me isn't liking just how off the deep end Walt and Jesse are. I mean, there's no turning back now, and this is the same man I was rooting for in season 1 to just beat cancer. Part of me is having real trouble rooting for him anymore. I'm rooting for Skylar, Walt Jr. and Marie/Hank and even Jesse... but Walt? Not so much.
Yoda, I know that's part of what that article you mentioned talks about...
Side note: I loved seeing Jim Beaver in this episode, who acted with Anna Gunn (Skylar) in Deadwood. He plays essentially the same type of character everywhere, but I love it.
