that's funny - i feel like it elevated the show. the wife and kid are the ones i could do without... they really aren't interesting characters. Jesse is the star though, honestly - he was originally going to die at the end of season 1, but the character worked so well they kept him in.
"i made you my bitch... you okay with that, you accept?" is one of the best lines ever
yea walter jr. and skyler I could definitely do without. I just felt that Tucco set the bar pretty damn high in terms of antagonists and I loved it when walter and jesse were always on the move. The Krazy K set up was also great. I just felt it got stale when they were stuck in the meth lab obeying gus's orders.
A lot of people hated the twins, but I found them to be pretty cool. After their demise, it got boring for me imo (especially that fly in the lab episode). I'm hoping the new season will refresh the character's storylines, maybe thick hank finally connecting the dots on heisenberg.
I just saw one last night that I had never seen before. I came in after the beginning but they were at a pool in Mexico apparently with another drug lord and Gus was being called on the carpet for something. Why was that? Anyway, Gus gives the guy a bottle of poisoned tequilla. Gus takes a shot to "prove" that there is nothing wrong with it. He then excuses himself to go to the bathroom so he can throw up the poison. All the capos and drug lord start dying by the pool.
That drug lord killed gus's partner when they were starting up. I forget why he killed him, but I think it was just to send a message to Gus to not fuck with them. It hit Gus hard because he funded his partner's education and they started the chicken+meth business together.
His revenge episode was badass.

Yea that episode is so bad ass. All the top dogs of the operation just go down. To clarify, the drug lord killed Gus's friend because they were selling drugs out of their restaurant and he was telling him that they are the only sellers in town. Although really, gus just wanted to work with him but i guess that didnt work out. Also, he said he would kill Gus but he knew who he was/his family was, but i never knew if that meant maybe Gus had ties to a drug family in his home country or just that he ran the pollo place
