How about a little communal TV watching?

We watched Episode two of Breaking Bad, Season five at The Gate in Park Slope, where they will be screening the show every Sunday night at  10PM for the duration of the season.

Season Five, so far, deals with the aftermath of the mind-blowing (literally) death of Gus Fring. At the start of Episode two, we find ourselves at Madrigal Electromotive, the parent company of Gus’ Los Pollos Hermanos.

It was a little disorienting at first. What are we doing in Germany?

I ordered white wine, Hugh had a beer. We sat at the bar with other Breaking Bad obsessives.

Back in Albuquerque, Walt wants to start cooking meth again now that he has blown up Gus. But there’s a lot that needs to be put in place before he can proceed…

The bartender somehow managed to watch the show, tend bar, and collect glassware from The Gate’s patio with aplomb. He’s a marvel. It was interesting to watch the show with a crowd.

My impressions of the episode: Walt is becoming so evil; Jesse is trapped and guilty; Skyler seems freaked out by who Walt is becoming (see picture).

The woman sitting next to be at the bar learned that The Gate was showing Breaking Bad from OTBKB. She asked Google: Where can I watch Breaking Bad in Park Slope?

She said she’ll be back at the bar next week.
