I have watched breaking bad twice now and Jesse Pinkman popularity with the fans of the show still baffles me

Jesse always playing the victim when Walt literally saved him from a long ass prison sentence in the first episode. That skinny little white kid woulda got turned out in prison and the 10 year or longer sentence would have fukked his life up, too. I hate that character.

I thought he was a great character. He brought the emotion to the show. WALT had lost all empathy and had turned into a sociopath for the most part.

Greatest show ever imo. Not to mention I was going back and forth to ABQ during the time they were filming this so it was surreal seeing so many familiar spots and references on the the show.

Jesse literally saved Walt numerous times too. That’s kinda the point.

Dude was a whiny brat and I never got the appeal. I mean their father/son bromamce was cool but I was very :manny: towards it. I mean he played an integral part and did it well but he never moved me.
guys a fukkboy, but he did care about all the children walter tried to kill... thats what ultimately what broke their partnership apart after walt poisoned brock to get jessie to blame gus. if jessie hadn't run into walter again im pretty sure the mexican guys like krazy 8 and tuco would've killed him eventually, or he'd end up locked up.

but ultimately pinkman becomes an antihero, unlike walter who slowly becomes the villain (he cannibalizes the enemies he destroys. he picks up traits from tuco and gus and others along the way)

and liking breaking bad does not make you white :russ: that is the dumbest shyt ive ever heard lmao. anyone can and should enjoy this show :ufdup:


that better call saul shyt is boring as hell though. its a good story, just.. coulda been done in 3 seasons :yeshrug:

and neither show comes close to sopranos

You didn't the show good enough. Jesse was actually a good kid and cared. Yeah he was somewhat of a bum, but he cared about kids n shyt


Now Todd? He was a POS:scust:

I know, but Jesse never acknowledged how many years he woulda been doing or the hell of prison if Walt didn't save him. The DEA showed up looking for a notorious drug dealer named Captain Cook. He was gonna do a lot of time.

Walt was on demon time. OP probably thinks he was the good guy though.



nah there's no such thing as a good/ethical drug dealer. Both of them were scumbags, one was just more relatable to cacs

Jesse was no victim, he was an adult who had the agency/freewill to say no to the chemistry teacher from the start

Ehh, sucks but Jesse either was a willing participant in the fukkery or his actions allowed him to get fukked over. He ended up getting multiple people killed because of his actions and associations, not to mention producing a drug used by people all over the country and internationally. I have no sympathy for him.
