I just started watching season 5, ( finally on netflix), but I missed what happened to Ted? Can someone fill me in... thx
Spoiler
Walter sent some muscle over to Ted's house to get the money back that Skyler gave him. Ted panicked, tried to run away, tripped over a rug, slid across the floor, and broken his neck.
^Walter wasn't involved; Skyler sent them there via Saul to ensure Ted used the money to pay back the government, after he threatened to do whatever the hell he wanted with it instead.
I kind of thought the magnets episode and the train heist were a little shark-jumpy too. I still think BB is the best show on tv, but the first half of S5 was the weakest so far. I also wasn't crazy about the new characters they added...hopefully the writers have something in mind that will tie it all together, though.
Skyler's not my favorite character, but I blame that on the fact that she was never given much of an identity to start with beyond "nagging wife." I don't think her being "annoying" is on par with the actions of Walt in any way, shape or form though. She hasn't killed anybody, for one thing. The fanboys that hate Skyler and worship Walt have some deep-seated issues, IMO.
What??? Those were two of the best episodes from the series.
^^^ They seemed to me like the kind of stunts you could find in any lesser, cheesy action show like 24 or MacGyver. I just think BB was always better than that, and the writing in earlier seasons was sharper. But don't get me wrong, I'm still excited for the final 8 episodes.

Thanks for the replies, I had forgotten all about that scene over at Teds. I think it was in the last episode of season 4. I guess somehow he did pay the IRS ?
Reruns on AMC now, I watched a lot of the series on either my laptop or my ipod. Looks better on TV.
Can't wait till Sunday.
