Better Call Saul (spoilers ahoy)

Is there anyone left still looking to kill him? I'm betting he'll get popped in the final season.

the ending of this episode was clever

favourite part of this episode was mike's former client* repeatedly fucking up

*i feel like he should have a nickname that's a pun on walter white//heisenberg but can't think of anything good atm

The way Breaking Bad ended, I don't think there was anyone left alive who would want to kill him, and his legal skills could get him out of any alleged association with Heisenberg. I get the impression that the b&w scenes of him in Cinnabon world are a self-imposed prison born from fear, and would bet that this series will end with him reclaiming his life & becoming a legitimate lawyer again.

Or maybe that's just me really wanting it to have a happy ending.

I think each season will show another little piece of the after story, but it has to end with him meeting a gruesome end. If you subscribe to the theory that Walking Dead exists after BB and BCS then you know there are no happy endings.

Other basement-dwelling idiots, I would presume.

lol rubin lay of those Marvel flix, man

The Walking Dead is a prequel to Everybody Loves Raymond.

I didn't come up with it, it's just a thing that exists.

people also ship agent mulder and skinner

and just like the people theorizing on a grander AMC shared universe, they should be ignored

I think the root of the AMC theory was the blue meth on WD.

Oh yeah, when they were looking for Carol's shitty kid?

that was a fantastic bit of tv, really is the best thing ever. lol @ giselle st. clair.

Highly intriguing opener to the season - I'm guessing that the "playuh" ends up as one of Saul's clients? My man's hummer was off the chain.

Also Mike is still one of the best characters ever.

As a BB fanatic...should I be watching BCS?

How would y'all rate the writing (etc) compared to BB?

as much as I adored BB, I prefer BCS.

I prefer the writing in BCS. The story and the acting are given a lot more breathing room. It's very confident and less sensationalistic than BB.

Got to agree with baph. It's a different tone than BB, but the writing is fine as ever.

Interesting...well I guess I'll have to give it a go, then.

Yeah, similar writing style to BB, slower pace, character development is more nuanced. Both shows are great. Mike's character feels like a strong link between the series, since even though Mike is in a different place in his life in BCS, his wisdom and attitude is really consistent. Mike is always Mike, always the voice of reason.

It's nowhere near brba in terms of thrillzzz but the emotional dynamics are more nuanced & the characters feel more relatable

Season 2 is off to a good start. Contender for best spin-off show ever?
