Bob Odenkirk: Hollywood’s Premier Payphone Actor
Seeing people decide to watch Breaking Bad based on the Tumblr memes is especially funny when they do it specifically for the memes about Jesse, because... well, let's put it this way. Aaron Paul, the guy who played Jesse, was nominated for a Primetime Emmy award for best supporting actor in a drama series for his work on Breaking Bad on five separate occasions, including twice in one season, and won three of those nominations. He was the first person ever to win that award three times for the same role. Like, Jesse's storyline is so viscerally unpleasant that it set industry records.
Jesse Pinkman is basically the prototypical Poor Little Meow Meow in that yes, he does objectively terrible things, but literally everything about his life seems calculated to maximise his suffering while he's doing it. It gets so bad that the show's producers ended up making an entire spin-off movie about Jesse in which he kills two men in order to obtain money to purchase a fake identity and go into exile in Alaska, and this is framed as his happy ending.

Think the thing I liked best ab Nacho Varga was that the only thing that ever seemed to put a smile on his dour little face was tormenting Jimmy… like I’m clinically depressed time to go jumpscare that random lawyer I found in the desert… he was so real for that RIP king
“In this case, the officer was not injured at all. He was hit with a bag of sandwiches. How can you justify giving Babineaux 18 months?”

(Kim aka the only "jury member" that matters.)
Chuck to Jimmy
yeah boss....yeah we hired a new goon.... he's all ethereal and pretty like a baby fawn sleeping in a morning dew sprinkled clearing with a ray of sunshine spilling right on him through the branches of the trees. just how you like them boss
mr white. you ever think about how saul goodman acts as a terrible person to hide the fact that he's essentially drowned the man he once was and has driven away every single person who ever loved or believed in him, and he's haunted by what could've been and the person he's become so he blankets himself in a fake exterior so he doesn't have to confront his inner turmoil within. everything he's done and every vile act he's committed is ultimately because deep down he's a lonely man crying out for love and acceptance that will never come again. bitch
mistah white. what if saul goodman recognized that he is his own worst enemy and that the grave he has dug for himself is his fault and his alone. and he owns up to the mistakes he has made and reconciles with the love of his life and realized that maybe he can be happy and satisfied with himself after all. yo
jimmy was gay af for letting her divorce him
