Okay, I'm almost done with my second run through the series and...

Why do I not remember Walt being so fucking stupid? Like, this has been bothering me for so long. I absolutely have to make a post about it. God, it's like every decision he makes is the worst one possible. I remember when I saw this show when I was a lot younger I sort of just chalked Walt up to be a genius the whole time. Now I'm realizing he's constantly trying to play hotshot with everyone he deals with, not having the blatantly obvious realization that things are much more coordinated and complicated than him. Does he not realize how the cartel works? How he's not as tough and high up as he thinks he is?

The stupid fucking things he says to Gus and Mike, how he constantly is fucking with their well organized plans to deal with business, and how he can just never listen to orders that are made for his own good. This is not to mention his absolutely awful reactions to Hank's detective work. Could he appear any more guilty? The "great Heisenberg" literally breaks down any time a single thing falls out of line. I mean, even Jesse gets it after a while and starts to realize how things fall into place, keeping his mouth shut and following organized plans that are designed to prevent disaster. But Walt is constantly freaking out and can never keep his mouth shut. He's like a damn child! I don't know if this is meant to be how he is portrayed, but I'm almost done with season 4 and it's seriously getting under my skin. Even when it seems he has the upper hand it really just turns out to be another ploy that he thinks is some brilliant deduction but in fact just barely keeps the gears turning. Just some thoughts I had to get on paper.
