Any very experienced chemists out there that have any insight on the show breaking bad. Love the show but it seems super unrealistic.

Yes, I was enjoying it -- it has good acting and many episodes have interesting plot and dialog.  But yeah, in many cases, the science is wonky.  But still, its better than some other shows -- once on this forum I compared how the T.V show Prison Break chose to eat through bars ( with the magic acid stored in a toothpaste tube) versus how Walter and Jesse melt through a lock ( they use thermite.)  That actually is an important concept for a layman chemist to understand -- you want a significant result, it takes a significant effort.  Here's that post:  http://www.chemicalforums.com/index.php?topic=30128.0

I'm probably going to ignore this thread from here on out, I haven't seen the latest season, and I'd hate to spoil the story until I can rent the DVD set.
