He killed before that 💀

There is nothing wrong with thinking this is one of the best episodes (though there are clearly episodes that are much better), but why do you feel the need to look down on those who hate it? There are many reasons why people might hate this episode. Someone can understand the subtext and still hate the episode. And there's another thing about subtext - it is completely subject to interpretation. I have heard countless different interpretations of what this episode is about and the reality is that the writers probably didn't even consider a majority of them when they wrote the episode. People make up stuff, think they sound smart, and then say it's the greatest thing ever. It's like abstract art.

Hari Randhawa

Of course, but the reality is that something like that could have easily happened whether or not Walt was there. She or Jesse could easily have shifted in their sleep which would have led to the same outcome. The broader point that is often missed is how Jane and Jesse would have probably died had they continued their lifestyle. Jane died at that moment because of Walt but Walt also saved Jesse.

Hari Randhawa

Heisencuck killed Jane. Bro has blood on his hands like Ted Bundy.

Stannis the Mannis

And the Emmy goes to "The Fly", Breaking Bad Season 3 Ep 10. I see the fly as the minutia Walt tends to obsess over all the while missing the big picture regarding how much his attitudes and actions based on pride are wreaking a path of destruction. He and all his schemes and plans, despite his intellect, will be unable to stop in time before everyone close to him is brought down with him. Walt was right it is all contaminated. The almost Jane's death reveal Walt rambles on about is scary. He only has revelations when he is slowed down enough by whatever meds he has ingested or anesthesia to reveal the stuff he has bottled up inside.

Lyn Hurst

Actually Walter did kind of kill Jane...If you go back and re-watch that episode you will see how Jane was on her side like Jesse was...hugging him when Walter walked in and violently shook Jesse to try and wake him up...causing Jane you be rolled over onto her back where in that position she was able to choke on her vomit...remember she told Jesse how that was an issue before they shot up :'(

Corbyndallas

next 3 episodes gonna be lit. best stretch yet by far, but only ~5th best in my personal rankings on what is still to come

Ismael

Loved that Walt lost the last of his marbles when he realized Jesse had been stealing (and could be killed if caught). I think it really hit Walt when Jesse said that his life has been shit ever since he met Walt (because like you said, he sees Jesse as family, clearly).

According to creator Vince Gilligan, this was a "bottle episode." Because the season was already "hopelessly over budget," it became necessary to create an episode with minimal production costs. By filming in one location and using the fewest number of actors in the series ever, "Fly" cost substantially less than the average episode. Much of the fly hunting scenes with Jesse and Walt mirror Moby Dick, with Walter playing the role of Captain Ahab and Jesse as Starbuck. (With the fly, of course, being the whale.)

Jackhammer

Hate this episode tbh

Bill Nye

Honestly one of the best breaking bad episodes ever. People like to hate on it but it is peak breaking bad, just pure character driven writing. A deep dive into our charcters minds and some of the darkest concepts in all the series . Walter spills his guts out to the only person in the world he can be honest with and it is almost beautiful how you might think they have a nice friendship even tho it is all build on lies and manipulation. I honestly think that people that hate on this episode have 0 (ZERO) fucking idea what they are talking about.

Pablo

That fly represents Walts Guilt

DRIP DROP

Interestingly the lowest and highest rated Breaking Bad episodes were directed by Rian Johnson. This one threw me off a bit when I first saw it. I was watching as they aired so I was upset we didn’t get the overall plot advanced but in my rewatches since I look forward to this one.

James Woodford

woowee rian johnson directed the hell out of this episode. this is SUCH a great one my goodness the writing acting and directing all top notch.

micah

Funny enough this is the lowest rated breaking bad episode but its personally one of my favorites. Just having an entire episode centered on the two main characters is great.

Alex

This is whats called a bottle episode in the industry.

SuddenImpulse

Yep, this is whats called a bottle episode.

SuddenImpulse

This episode had a lot to do with budget constraints so they decided to shoot most of the episode in one location.

David Cansler

Bryan cranston was truly unbelievable in this episode, that monologue he gave ,his facial expressions was soo good, truly phenomenal actor.

JonSnow21

It might be lost on some, but the episode is essentially an allegory to the post-revolutionary Mexican muralism movement in the first half of the twentieth century. Others have coined the episode as a social-political commentary on the Israel-Gaza conflict. Whilst academics might debate whether 'the fly' represents either the Palestinians or the Jews, I personally interpret the Fly to be the physical manifestation of the toxicity of Western capitalism and racial prejudice. [To those who cannot read the satire] I happen to like this episode overall, there are some interesting insights into Walt's state of mind and thought processes and the episode does forward his relationship with Jesse. However, what I do not like is the severe case of intellectual grandstanding that some viewers like to indulge in when they call this the greatest episode of Breaking Bad. Yes, we are all aware that this episode is heavy on subtext and people interpret this in many different ways. I'm quite certain that many of these people probably found the episode quite boring when they first watched it and then subsequently viewed some YouTube deep dives of the episode and immediately felt enlightened to preach about it.

Hari Randhawa

Oh please tell us more about what this episode means. I want more fly metaphors

Hari Randhawa

That certainly wasn't their view when they watched the episode. They seemed very surprised at Walt's reaction to Jesse cooking his recipe and instinctively criticized Walt for not being more supportive of Jesse without considering why he might have reacted the way he did. The comments section of the episode was flooded with people providing the Grey Matter context.

Hari Randhawa

Honestly love seeing reactions to this episode

Cole

If there is ONE episode where “over-analyzing” is OK, this is the one. The fly is definitely a metaphor and I’ve seen many different theories on what it all means, but I think there are multiple layers behind it. I’m always interested in seeing how people interpret it.

imperial

The greatest episode in history lol

JonSnow21

The most divisive episode. Half the fanbase says it's one of their faves and the other half treat it as filler.

Munir

Sweet! Nothing brightens my day (or night) like a new Spartan and Pudgey drop.

John Neiberger

Walter falling will never not make me laugh😂

Erin

I love this episode😂

Erin

Just for explanation: The crew went over budget and so this episode was created in order to keep the budget down in just one set. You either love or hate it, me personally I love it because imo breaking bad is best when the characters are just talking

ynnk99

You guys make a great point in your intro about why Walt might’ve been so mad at Jesse for using his formula without his permission a few episodes ago….going back to Gray Matter where he feels his ideas were stolen. Walt’s pride is definitely one of his biggest weaknesses.

imperial

There's no controversy. Contrarians lie and say they love it and the other 99% of us hate it lmao

Skyler's lullaby to Holly over the fly in the cold open is from Phoenix when Walt is watching the nature show about an elephant and her calf. A reminder of the innocent lives Walt's destroyed to get to where he's at now and the fly represents the guilt and skeletons that are following Walt's conscience. There are references to the fly throughout the whole series in the shots & in the music. One of the writers said he wanted the fly to have a "menacing presence". I believe Vince & Rian Johnson were paying homage to the 1986 Jeff Goldblum remake: 'The Fly'. You can't help but think of this episode while watching it. The fly is the reason for Seth's (the protagonist) downfall hence why Walt treats it as if it's so deadly to them. The fly is representation for the morally wrong decisions Walt's made that he can't shake free from. It wakes him up at night in the closing scene. It's to say he was or still partially is a "good man" at least enough to feel remorse. He came from a place of morals before the criminal lifestyle to a certain degree. The metal reaction vessels in the lab resemble the Telepods from the movie, the lab itself and it's high ceilings resemble it's industrial warehouse–esque set. Seth is careless about the Telepod machine's safety precautions after awhile, I like to think that's reflected when Walt finally says: "it's all contaminated" aside from accepting his fate. Walt even says the fly is not Particularly dangerous to them. And "This fly is a major problem for us it will ruin our batch- we need to destroy it and every trace of it. Failing that... We're Dead". So much emphasis on the fly- as if the fly is deadly and not Gus. Jesse on top of the ladder could be an analogy for some kind of moral high ground while Walt holds onto it from down below, propping it up while struggling with Jane guilt. Walt asks Jesse what are the odds that he runs into Jane's father at the bar, which was part of the catalyst for Jane's tragedy sorta like what are the odds of a fly flying into the Telepod with Seth? The fly was out of it's element like Walter is in this business. It reminds me of 0210 when after Walt gets done installing the new water heater Jr burns his hand from the hot water as if even when Walt tries to do good, bad things happen. Literally the theme. Walt says "You want them to miss you, you want their memories of you to be..." good, is what he was thinking. Seth wasn't proud of his work and didn't necessarily want his lover to see what he had turned into... Seth had a genius brain- with such a bright future ahead of him and good intentions but by mostly circumstance he turned into an unlovable, deplorable monster that would rather be dead then carry on- a lot like Walter- "Oh, if I had just lived right up to that moment... and not one second more". Jesse's opossum rant is referencing the two-sidedness of the characters and his story about the cancer spreading to his aunt's brain and changing her could also be a nod to the movie. Not to mention BB is all about Change, Metamorphosis and Assimilation.

The controversial "Fly" episode. Breaking Bad's "The Great Divide"
