Better Call Saul (spoilers ahoy)

Season 1 was kind of perfect. But season 2 and 3 felt like one actual season of TV content spreeeeeeaaaaaddddd out into two seasons to make things reeeaaaallllyyyy sllllllooooooowwww.

I really like the pacing of the show (like the scene of Mike shooting at the baskets for letting the cocaine fall on the Helado truck), for me it's really on that aspect where BSC hits hard compared to other series. Yesterday I started a second watch of S3 and it's still so captivating even if we know the story. The direction, photography, acting and situations, not only are flawless, but truly special and different in the best way possible.

Anyway, I don't know if a 5th season was necessary, the 4th probably could have been enough to clear the events and finish to make the links to Breaking Bad, but if this can avoid a Game of Throne situation-like where they travel almost at the speed of light, it's good news.

i think it would be great if it runs past the breaking bad timeline. 

s5 could be what saul and mike were dealing with behind the scenes of jesse and walt being of fannies in an RV.

Maybe the 5th season will spend more time in the post Breaking Bad era with Gene. That could potentially be very fascinating.

Just got done rewatching season 3...

I'm so psyched for tonight!!!

=D

Man, that was brutally cold of Jimmy at the end. And it still leaves a lot up for interpretation. Is he in denial or shock? Is he happy that the guilt and blame can go to Hamlin instead of himself? Or is he just following his brother's advice to not feel remorse for the shitty things he  does?

I thought so too. I paused the show when we was walking over to his fish tank and had to ask my roommate if he was smiling. And then he fed his fish... And then the whistling... Fuck. So cold.

I have no idea if he's in denial or shock or what...

If not, he's got some pretty serious issues that I'd love to see the writers dive into.

One episode in and this season looks like it's going to be fucking fantastic.

=D

Really good episode, but god I don't remember anything from last year. What was the Madrigal situation again?

Mike's money was being laundered through Madrigal by Gus, paying Mike as a "security consultant". My understanding of the episode last night is that when Mike got the check for $10K, he broke into Madrigal to do some actual security consulting in case they were caught down the line, or he was just bored of staring at his TV.

Jesus, it's like I didn't watch a single episode. This is what happens when you binge watch Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul in the span of two weeks and don't come back to it in more than a year.

Fring laying down the law goddamn.

How much do we wanna bet we'll see Walt or Jesse coming thru the chicken shack drive thru? lol

BCS is a good show. Some great scenes last night. I want to know what that letter from Chuck says as much as I want to hear the Collapse EP.

Two scenes are in spanish but not subtitled... (the one at the hospital with the doctor coming from John Hopkins and when Nacho is waiting for his father at the garage). Any idea what they are saying?

Yea. The doctor is describing how they are going to treat Hector. She says try talking to him to create new neural pathways and help his recovery. She then tells them to strong arm bleep to get the Collapse EP and play it on repeat. Hector will be up and at em' in a day or so.

Luckily I had CC turned on, weird they didn't hard code the subs for that scene. Nacho basically said they were friends of the family, the doc told them to try to speak to Hector, then she left & the twins cryptically told Nacho to speak, and he and his ponytail bro updated Hector on the status of the current collections.

it pisses me off that we have to wait a whole week between episodes. it's like constipation. i wanna binge that

good show, if not best

Maybe he's in this state because those pills Nacho made didn't contain the NTS chemistry at the time expected?

There's been a lot of conjecture about exactly "when" the flash forwards take place. Some interesting theories, but hopefully the show don't go that way.

I'm still fuzzy as to who Gene is so afraid of, the Mexican Cartel was wiped out, Gus' organization was wiped out, Walt pretty much tied up every loose end except Jesse, and Gilligan says he was probly arrested. So maybe he's just paranoid about Jesse flipping on him & DEA / law enforcement?
