Some Dude From North Carolina, hey, so I've completed the review and the article is more or less a good article. There are a few minor issues which might need resolving so I'm putting it on hold for the time being. Tayi Arajakate Talk 13:20, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

#### Comments
Question about the image caption. It's been a long time since I saw the episode but is the caption accurate? As far as I remember, the trailer implied that he was preparing to confront the police but wasn't he simply preparing his gun to shoot himself? Tayi Arajakate Talk 06:59, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
@Tayi Arajakate: Well, in the episode, Walter White points his gun towards the sounds of the sirens, questions this decision and attempts to commit suicide,  and then points the gun again towards the sirens. I would say that per the timeline of the events, the caption is accurate. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 14:11, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
Suggestions:
The sentence "Jesse drives back to show his distributor, Krazy-8 but encounters Krazy-8's cousin, Emilio Koyama, who believes Jesse set him up during the drug bust." is a bit awkward. I would suggest either removing "show" or adding "to show the product to his distributor".

The sentence "However, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that same year that the pilot had in fact been watched by 1.41 million people instead." is a bit awkward as well. For instance the phrase "that same year that the pilot", it should also clarify that it was later in the same year.

The quotations could be turned down a bit, for instance at the beginning of the section on production. Some of them could be re-worked as sentences narrating what Gilligan says instead of direct quotes.

The last paragraph is a bit too blue link intensive. Maybe it can be re-worked in a chart format.

The part referred to in the caption should be included in the plot too.

The article could talk a bit more about RJ Mitte's casting if that is available and if there is other information available about the production.
 Done Added information on the casting of Aaron Paul and Dean Norris. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 14:10, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
Oops, I meant that for the casting for Jesse Pinkman's role, not that of Walter Jr. Since, you have added it anyways, it's done now. Tayi Arajakate Talk 20:04, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
