Has my vote for automatic inclusion as one of the Four Great Dramas in modern TV: The Sopranos, The Wire, Mad Men, and Breaking Bad. (Homeland looks like it will not live up to season 1's promise and jury's still out on The Americans. ) It is arguably the best: unlike the others, I am not sure if BB ever went through a sustained weak period, and the slow crescendo towards the finish was...simply incredible.

 


Anyways, very small quibbles - one thing about the BB finale, I think any detractors will only have these sort of quibbles to seize on. Unlike The Sopranos finale (which I loved ), there's no controversy here - just another great episode.
Mankind's only chance is to harness the power of stupid.

Well, I wouldn't go THAT far. We didn't actually get confirmation that his heart had stopped. Haven't you seen Crank2?

I can't believe how much of a cliffhanger they left with

The finale was great, and the tv series overall was great. The biggest irk I had with the movie was the eye from the teddy bear that kept on reappearing in various episodes. It had little bearing to do with the movie so I am unsure why the placement of it was so prominent.
