Am I morally bankrupt, or some kind of weirdo? I have a massive thing for Gus from Breaking Bad.

Just that, really.

Ooh it's Jesse all the way here...chemistry bitch! Hahaha

roughtyping · 22/10/2013 23:05

Jesse. And the twins. And Badger...

minouminou · 22/10/2013 23:09

Do you know what....I wouldn't touch Walt with somebody else's.....

Feeling the (platonic) love for Mike, though. He's a nice guy.

Well, except for the killings and that, but I just put that down to pragmatism.

Crazy 8 was pretty fucking hot.

JessePinkmansWitch · 22/10/2013 23:14

I fell a little bit in love with Jesse.

minouminou · 22/10/2013 23:15

I have a chum who reminds me of Tuco....in a non-murdery kind of way.

Jesse for me! Love Gus as a character, but not in that way

anon2013 · 23/10/2013 06:50

I think I'd quite like Huell (sp!?) for winter. Bet he gives great cuddles and is nice and warm.

SantiagoToots · 23/10/2013 06:54

The twins, crazy eight, hank and sober Jesse. Oh and skinny Pete when he's playing piano.

Sober Jesse is just so purdy how could you not? I come over all "Dinah Washington".

Like what she says, not Walt with someone else's!

ChesterDrawers · 23/10/2013 07:12

Jesse all the way for me. I actually have a bit of an unhealthy obsession with him, the level of which I've not experienced since New Kids on the Block were around the first time. I keep googling pictures of him when I'm not watching just to remind myself how lovely he is.

Only on season 3 so don't think I know who Mike is yet, but you can keep Gus, he gives me the creeps.

roughtyping · 23/10/2013 07:15

Chester, I got like that about David Tennant a few years ago

One of the cartel guys was just beautiful. Don't think he had a name though..

minouminou · 23/10/2013 07:25

Oh.... I feel dirty and slightly ashamed now. Like Stepford upthread, I have said too much.

minouminou · 23/10/2013 08:20

But at least I'm not as bad as my friend....she fancies George Osborne.

Honestly Rough, it's ridiculous. I just cannot get enough of him. I am hoping it fades as it is very distracting. He's not even my type, but there is just something about him.

And I seriously NEVER do crushes.

Goes off to Google Jesse Pinkman again

AryaofhouseSnark · 23/10/2013 08:50

Grin Gus ? I really don't see it, even in the flash backs when he was a youngen.
He really just does seem a sexual, I can't picture him having a cock, just a smooth front bum like Ken and MrTumble

VikingVagine · 23/10/2013 08:52

Before I write this I would just like to add that the actor was born in 1992 so he's 21 .

Flynn is quite attractive in the later episodes.

I get the Gus thing, he's in Revolution, playing a similar character and he's still got that je ne sais quoi !

Love Jessie "Science bitch" .

Yes to Mike.

That's all.

minouminou · 23/10/2013 09:56

I don't think Gus is asexual...I think the subtext is that he's gay and is still grieving for his lost partner.

V complex character.

Still wouldn't do Jesse, though, despite "Yeah, MAGnets, yo!"

outforawalkbitch · 23/10/2013 10:01

ooh Roughtyping, do you mean that cartel bloke when Gus goes to get revenge at that house with the swimming pool?

oldgrandmama · 23/10/2013 10:06

Jesse and Saul for me! Although I did find Gus rather fascinating - seemingly so calm and gentle, lovely voice. And I do like fried chicken.

minouminou · 23/10/2013 10:11

Saul's ace, but he looks like he might be a bit smelly.
He's just grubby underneath it all.

YorksDame · 23/10/2013 10:35

No love for Badger? Wink

roughtyping · 23/10/2013 10:44

Ourforawalk, I think so. May need to rewatch tonight ;)

I love badger!!!

And Flynn, yes, he is lovely! Am only 27 though so feel it's allowed ;)

UriGHOULer · 23/10/2013 10:44

Badgers voice Grin

I'm glad no one finds Walt hot.

Mikes my guy. We're watching 15 ep10 so I won't say anymore.

Bettercallsaul1 · 23/10/2013 10:54

Don't fancy Gus at all but he's an excellent character - very worthy opponent for Walt, which is the essential for the plot.

As someone earlier said, great death scene - gives new meaning to "dead man walking"!

TheHeadlessLadyofCannock · 23/10/2013 10:59

Saul: tick
Jesse: tick
Flynn: tick Blush
Hank: tick Blush

NOT Mike, or Walt, or Skinny Pete, or Badger! Hank's colleague/partner (can't remember his name) is quite cute. Dimly remember I fancied one of the cartel guys in Mexico in Season 4 but can't remember either his name or anything about his character.
