I'm rewatching the show for the first time, and man, I realized that I missed about 3 episodes in the middle of Season 3 the first time through.

random thoughts:

- I totally had forgotten that the Aztec steamrolling the drug dealers and the Gale killing were in back to back episodes. I thought going into the end of S3 that the final episode was the Aztec scene, and that S4 ended with Gale dying, there was a whole season in between. Nope!

- the first punch Hank hits Jesse with sends him flying like 2 feet back, gently caress

- It was kinda nice for the cousins to leave their Mercedes to the farmer family

- Gus seems a lot more chill and decent on a rewatch

I thought it was funny how Gus cooked the exact same meal for both Walt and Jesse when he invited each to his place. Ive been cooking the same meal for years for the first cooking for ya girl date

One thing that stood out to me on the rewatch was the need to have what seemed like an entire all new cast of villains introduced into the story. They handled it pretty well for the most part, and I knew right away that Todd was going to be a problem, but it was a little jarring on binge watch to suddenly have Lydia and the nazi guys so abruptly thrust into the protagonist role. Felt like it moved a little fast.

Two of my all-time favorite shows (BB and Banshee) ended their amazing series with the final bad guys being nameless Nazis that were suddenly introduced in the final few episodes. Weird lapse in writing for otherwise really solid shows
