Quote:
I could have done without the very dry and boring Michael flashbacks in last night's episode. It didn't add anything to the story as a whole nor the episode. It was filler. Dry and dull filler.

Completely untrue. The "now" part of the story had to do with Michael coming to grips with the fact that his son had been kidnapped. The flashback had to do with Michael coming to grips with his son being taken from him. The point of it was in the differences about why he wanted to hang onto his son and his differences in dealing with it. Which is basically the point of Michael's entire storyline: his relationship to Walt and how it changes. It was probably the most direct relationship between a flashback and the "now" we've seen yet.

Now, if you don't like the Michael storyline, that's one thing, but to call if filler is ridiculous.
