Kinda slow. Lots of set up/background info, but it looks like the crap is about to hit the fan and James McGill is transforming into the shady Saul that we all love.

I keep hearing people saying that it's slow, I guess I don't understand. We've been introduced to tons of characters, there are quite a few storylines that are starting to move forward, and we've already been introduced to more than one timeline.Breaking bad was slow to start fwiw too. It's the pace of each scene, not who's in it to me.

I've had bro's tell me they were going to intentionally not watch a TV show, just so they could binge at a later date: I don't get it. I guess if you want to not BBS about a show, or talk with your buds about the last new/great/surprising episode so you can have a whole Saturday to binge off, that's your choice, but I think i'd always prefer to be current.its too good to fall that far behind tho

Its like my old boss used to tell me he'd DVR sporting programs, wait until they were over, look up the score, and only watch them if his team won. Like, I see the logic in there, but I still don't think it'd be something i'd be interested in.

For starters, I'm too busy to watch a show every single week. I've tried and it just doesn't work for me.
I also don't get that much out of bbs'ing about a TV show and I can have conversations with people that don't reference a TV show. I did the same thing with Breaking Bad and will admit I enjoyed seeing people's reactions after the fact.

Mich, get a DVR or something.No, but I'd still need to make the time , and if my wife wants to watch our schedules have to match, and I'm not gonna coordinate multiple schedules for a TV show.
If she's not watching, I have to block off 45 minutes a week of me time on top of KSU sports and concerts and other generally awesome things I do to keep up. No thanks.

Post by: chum1 on February 20, 2015, 06:42:45 AM
So I haven't seen a single episode of Breaking Bad. I didn't feel like binge watching after it got really popular after seasons 3 & 4. Anyway I am watching BCS. I thought the first two episodes were good enough to hold me, episode 2 was brilliant. I thought episode 3 was awful minus the last 5 minutes. I attempted to watch it 3 times but dozed off after about 20 minutes each time, the second time I woke up to see the end and I was able to follow so I don't think I missed anything in the middle 30 minutes, am I right about this or should I try for a fourth time?
Also since I didn't see BB I'm confused by why/how Jimmy becomes Saul. Will explaining this to me likely ruin a story arc? If so don't explain it to me.
You didn't miss any essential plot in episode 3. In BB, he just says he changed his name because it would be better for business if people thought he was Jewish, which is a very Saul thing to do.

I love how he's turning into a great scam artist. I also enjoyed watching him pull out those stacks of cash at his desk after he had repeatedly told that couple, "I can't take a bribe. I can't take a bribe!" He's giving fewer and fewer fucks each episode.
sitting down and expensing that out was great. "Oh, I ate on the road"

The succession and toilet scenes were pretty good tonight. That being said we're now 5 episodes in and its pretty overrated. Usually a good scene or two each episode and enough to hold you through an episode but this certainly isn't some thrill ride killing me in anticipation for the next episode.
I don't think anybody has claimed that.

I like the characters, I dislike the story
I don't think we know the direction the story is going yet. The last couple of episodes seem to be setting us up for something.
The audience became so accustomed to a quick pace in the last couple of seasons of BB, but earlier in the series there was a lot of set up episodes. I bet that is the case here. We don't even know Mike's story yet and we're almost half a season into the show.

Jimmy had some kind of falling out bad enough to change his name (legal reasons?)
Jimmy and his brother no longer have a big connection, his brother didn't appear once in BB, wasn't even referenced.

Will you be back for more episodes?
I was surprised I was coming back in the first place, because I was dead and then it was "Oh, it's a prequel, great. I might come back." I don't know if I will again. It would be interesting. It would be fun to do a few more. It's just really hard part to try to pull off. That's why you approach it sparingly to do an episode here and there.

there is no worse acting than fake drunk acting.
Fake Drunk Acting and Fake Crying Acting are the two worst ppl I know.

To be fair, that could be his interpretation of how Mike would act if he were pretending to act drunk. But in general I agree with you. If I were an actor I would just get to level 5-6 before we started filming.

This show just keeps getting better and better. Eff the haters. Loved tonight's episode. Chuck is a fantastic character.
Not sure who the haters are, it's almost like everyone wants to be in on the show so no one is critical. I don't like the all over the place timelines, and like lib7 said there's entirely too much filler, these should be 30 minute episodes. The 61, 62, 63, 64 minute episodes are pretentious as eff.

I'm thinking they win the case and then Chuck's firm ends up with all of the money.
Yeah, like it gets too big, they bring in HHM, then HHM either buys him out or squeezes him out. Or, maybe they somehow say it was their case to start with since Chuck was involved and still works for them, or something.

Yeah, Kim.was all like, "But Chuck still works for us. Oh, well. Nevermind."
Then she uses HHM's resources and Chuck's HHM code to make copies to supply the case.

Last episode was really really good.
this.
also i think that there are two ways this is going to go. 1. chuck and saul proceed and win the case, but in the end either chuck fucks saul or HHM takes the proceeds. 2. chuck dies or goes completely insane right when saul needs him most and saul loses the case on his own. either way saul gets mumped and he decides to go off the deep end and makes his career as we see it in BB. soon it will be it's all good man.

this current season is 6 years before BB, so there is no rush to get to bad Saul.
Agreed, but bad Saul doesn't get where he is with a flick of a switch. It takes time to lower to that level, create all the shady contacts, get divorced a time or two, etc that is all shown and or mentioned in BB.

MIR questions who the haters are, then proceeds to list things that he hates about the show.
If you think listing critiques of anything is being a hater you may need to analyze your fanboi status. Better Call Saul tuck logic? Nearly every post itt praising the show talks about the links in each episode to BB, of course someone who didn't see BB will be more critical. I'm sure they'll do a better job as the show progresses of having BCS stand on its own.
That being said, last night was awesome. If there were BB insider things they certainly weren't evident. Everything about last night's episode was perfect and served as a great lead in to the season finale. There were two holes in the episode: How did Mike know who to vet for that job? I doubt that the pharmacist would tell hired muscle who he is dealing drugs to. And, why did ol' dude from HHM tell Kim about Chuck betraying Jimmy? Those are nit picks though the episode was great, now I'm intrigued where as before I was just watching hoping to get hooked.

I would guess Howard didn't want to fully alienate a valued employee just to carry water for an obviously insane senior partner that isn't ever coming back.
That's what I was thinking. Last night, we learned that he isn't pure evil. He might not be the greatest guy, but he was also being the bad guy on Chuck's behalf.

Judging by what you guys have said about Jimmy/Saul's character on BB and what happened with the latest episode I'm guessing season two will prominently feature Slippin Jimmy. We haven't seen that for the most part this season I think I'd make the show funnier.
This is exactly what CNSWife and I discussed last night. Chuck turned Jimmy back into what Jimmy no longer was. Chuck is a false and horrible person.

BCS reminds me more of Mad Men than Breaking Bad. The lead character is constantly fighting against himself on whether to do the right thing or to be a selfish, awful person. And for some reason you're always rooting for him to do the wrong thing because it's more entertaining.

You're pretty short-sighted sometimes. How the eff do you know if it's useless? You haven't seen what comes next. Hasn't Vince Gilligan demonstrated that seemingly insignificant details can actually have great meaning on down the line? So maybe the useful things in that episode just aren't totally apparent to us all yet.That being said, no, the episode was not terribly entertaining. Saul humming Deep Purple was pretty cool though, same with the origins of his ring. Pretty much a snoozefest though.

It was useless because after the previous episode I was able to determine that Slippin Jimmy was going to come back. The last episode was Jimmy going back home and doing the same stupid crap he was doing before his brother rescued him. The episode ended with Jimmy turning down an opportunity to do legit work. His driving out of the garage was him symbolically and literally turning his back on the man. Slippin Jimmy. It's rare in a dramatic series to have a cliff hanger that actually isn't a cliff hanger, the previous episode was that this was junk.

Putting pieces together after the season 2 premiere, I think the season 1 finale definitely helps to show that Jimmy is a hustler at heart. It's not just that he's a little crooked in order to make an extra buck or whatever, but more particularly that he gets off on hustling people.
This point was further driven home by Ed Beagley's everyone needs something to blow off steam line.
Also just realized both opening the season have been focused around time keeping mechanisms.

Same, she is annoying as crap but there's something about her character that I adore. I did miss on what I thought her role was going to be. I thought she was going to be a junior associate smitten with Jimmy making awkward, uncomfortable advances to him and he would eventually relent and get caught.

Howard was walking with Kim through the office, passing by cubicles, copiers, etc. and was just completely expressionless. Then, the instant that they crossed the threshold into the public area and conference room, he was all warm and smiley. Even considering that he now hates Kim, that was creepy.
That's because Howard is a creep. Pure and simple.

So, Kim's from a small Kansas town. We know she's not around in Breaking Bad, so I'm worried she's going to die or something.Those new suits are pretty sweet. Hector looked like he'd had a stroke in Breaking Bad, not sure how you induce one of those.

I don't think Kim will die. She moves back home and that is why Jimmy/Saul chooses Omaha as a soft landing spot in Breaking Bad. It's in close proximity to Kim.

Kim seemed hesitant to reveal much of her background during that interview. I wonder what her backstory is that caused her to get the hell out of Kansas and pick New Mexico as a landing spot. Maybe she has a slightly shady or checkered past too??

They've had full flashback episodes for Jimmy and Mike. Hopefully we get a pre-ABQ Kim episode soon :pray:

In my mind's eye Kim is from Seneca, or maybe Sabetha.

I can see this theory. I don't think she's going to die because that would crush Jimmy and I don't think he'd stick around ABQ and become Saul if something that devastating happened to him.

Totally loved watching Jimmy go all chimp with a machine gun crazy while trying to sabotage HHM.
Was bummed to see in the sneak peek that his plot fails. But, hey, that's Saul. One major disappointment after another.

Okay, so the long opening single cam shot following the truck crossing the border was really rough ridin' stylish and cool.

I wonder how many seasons of Slippin' Jimmy we'll get until we get Saul. As discussed I've never seen BB so I'm looking forward to Saul.
Are you ever going to watch BB? I would be curious what the experience would be if you watched it following BCS concluding

I mean, he really is the same guy character wise. I don't think you could say he ever snaps and stops being slipping Jimmy. He just gets mixed up with various shady characters along the way just like he has since like the second episode of BCS.
I'm actually more interested to see exactly how Mike gets in with Gus.

I think that Chuck dies. Kim obvs knows that Jimmy did forge those documents and chose him over the "right" thing/going along with Chuck. Jimmy takes Chuck's death hard, tells Kim all the dets about him bribing the printer clerk, being there, etc. Kim realizes that Chuck was right and shuns Jimmy.Kim already knows he did it tho! Did you not take hint during the bed scene?

Yepper Kim knows. I'm saying that she's going to realize what Chuck has been saying all along about Jimmy and cuts ties with him, especially with Mesa Verde and them sharing the office.

Yeah, that's gotta be coming. BB mentions Omaha in the end of it. I wonder tho.... Maybe a future BCS after the BB years?
The opening shot of season one and two shows him working at a mall cinnabon in Omaha. It's clearly his life after his last crash and burn as an attorney in Albuquerque.

Chuck won't do it, or Jimmy manipulates the sitch to get him committed to save his own ass. I mean, this show is a view of the slope downward. That would be a pretty great leap towards Saul.

The way that Jimmy worded his "confession" might mean that he does throw Chuck under the bus. I think he said something like "if it makes you feel better" and some other things that would leave it open to Jimmy claiming that he was trying to make Chuck feel better and get over it. Epesh on the "so can I go call Howard now and tell him you'll be back."

But, at least Jimmy won't get busted, though i bet they have a "never speak to you again" falling out over this. Its kinda a bad thing about prequels, they take away some of the suspense. Jimmy can't get busted because felons can't be lawyers an hes a lawyer in BB.
Post by: EMAWican on April 19, 2016, 11:52:28 AM
Yeah, i thought at the beginning that Chuck was more of a Lawful-Good character (to bring in some nerdy gaming terms) and whenever he does these bad person moves its because he's so straight laced he can't not do them. e.g - he's so buy-the-books that he has to report Jimmy because its in the best interest of his former client, he blocked Jimmy from joining the firm because he cut corners to be there, etc. but that he was actually a good guy at heart. This last episode kinda shows that he's probably just really an bad person/bad person.

I think the fun suspense is that we know how it ends because of BB, but HOW THE HELL DO WE GET THERE OMG. That opening scene of Chuck lying to Jimmy about their mother calling out for him? Holy crap, I mean if the boot fits on being a Goodman...

I agree with CNS that it's not really Gus's style. On the other hand, maybe Gus doesn't want to reveal his identity to Mike.
Would it be a new character then? Doubt it's anyone in the show already?

Also, I thought that scene was going to show how Hector ended up in a wheelchair unable to speak. I really thought Mike was going to pull the trigger.
Is Nacho also working for Gus? How else would Gus know about Mike?
Post by: CNS on April 20, 2016, 09:33:18 AM
Thinking through it, Gus could be the note leaver. Gus may want what Mike wants but may have a better scenario for it to happen under.
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on April 20, 2016, 09:37:31 AM
So, I am assuming that Gus isn't a kingpin locally yet. I mean, Nacho is obvsly getting the drugs he and Tuco sell from Hector. Hector being wheelchair bound has to be the rise of Gus, since Tuco was selling Gus's drugs in BB. Gotta think the Mike and Gus thing comes from COLUSION against Hector as a win/win for Gus and Mike. Gus gets the region as the new supplier, and Mike gets the threat of Hector away from him and his fam. That all said, I am pretty sure Tuco mentioned Hector having a stroke when Hector was introduced in BB, not being shot. :dunno:Can confirm from watching the after show, that even the writers have no clue where this thing is going.

We'll see Jessee eventually, but they are probably going to have to set up Tuco's whole operation first, including Crazy 8. I doubt they would bring Walter White into the picture until they are getting bored and want to introduce some more comic relief.
I bet they do but it will be something in passing like he's watching with Jesse in the background across a scene.

Howard was walking with Kim through the office, passing by cubicles, copiers, etc. and was just completely expressionless. Then, the instant that they crossed the threshold into the public area and conference room, he was all warm and smiley. Even considering that he now hates Kim, that was creepy.
That's because Howard is a creep. Pure and simple.
Of course he is. That guy's been a creep since he was a professor at Cal U. and he was scamming on a first-semester freshman Kelly Kapowski. Professor Lasky knew there was precious little Zack and the gang could do about it too, because they were just cretinous little freshmen and he was an accomplished head-stuffer. I mean sure, the guys could've tried to utilize the brute strength of their RA Bob Golic to help win Kelly back, but that's nothing compared having to the brain of a cultural anthropology professor. Guy's been a creep since the very first day of classes, no surprise that he would continue being that way after changing careers and moving to the Land of Enchantment.

I like the relationship between Jimmy and Kim and how you have to wonder how hard she is going to fall. Wow, I feel bad for her.
I think the scence with the Air Force guy was supposed to show an aspect of Jimmy's continual transformation, but didn't completely work for whatever reason.

WC does that after every episode (yet continues to watch). So if you liked the show before, his reaction is probably pretty meaningless.

I get distracted by my phone through most shows. I binge watch seasons and fast forward commercials to get to the payoff. I enjoy that BCS slowly builds tension throughout the episode since the tension that used to exist during breaks and between episodes doesn't exist much anymore.

haven't watched the second epi but agree with wackster on the first one.. that was soo slow until the last 10 seconds.. but they just keep reeling me back in!
Episodes two and three of this season were much much better, we weren't subjected to 20 minutes of Mike playing with a gas cap. The only thing they did in the other two episodes that were somewhat pretentious and self-serving was a 2 minute build-up of seeing Gus' face. Every scene is significant and obviously relevant.

I worry about the life of any character that wasn't in Breaking Bad. I'm hoping Kim Wexler just tells Jimmy to go eff himself and she's not a casualty of war.
I really can't handle the thought of anything physically bad happening to Kim so I'm choosing to believe her downfall will be of the personal/professional variety. Like at the end of BCS she will be disbarred and sitting in prison or something.

There may only be me who hasn't but I haven't seen BB and I have no idea which characters cross over. I think it's just Jimmy, Mike, and Gus, right? I thought nacho did too, guess not. Not sure about Howard. You know what, just don't answer this until the season is over.

Kim is going to prison for sure. She is way too wound up on the howard stuff. I bet she gets just a little too far over her skis, wanting to get his ass, and gets caught somehow.

I think her and Jimmy's connection has gotten too strong for her not to exist in BB if she stayed alive. She dead.

Not if Jimmy chose his not going to prison over her.
He mentions once in BB that he used to be married and it didn't end well. I don't think there was any detail other than that, iirc.

"Better Call Saul is too slow" is the scorching hot take equivalent of "SNL used to be so much better back in 19XX".I just started the final season and I marvel at how they can take 10 minutes to like unload a truck or pan across a desert.

Personally it makes me appreciate what good directing can look like. It wasn’t really until Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul that I appreciated you can build tension without jumping from one plot point to the next."Better Call Saul is too slow" is the scorching hot take equivalent of "SNL used to be so much better back in 19XX".I just started the final season and I marvel at how they can take 10 minutes to like unload a truck or pan across a desert.

I actually only saw the second to latest! the latest looked like another black and white snoozer.
also, semi spoiler, but the period from Kim leaving to Saul living in a mansion with a hooker was quite a quick transition given how slowly everything else goes on the damn show

ha yeah, i know they've gotta do something tie in-wise but could sorta do without the pinkman/walter fan service stuff, idgaf
What bothers me is there are like 100 episodes of Saul and Walter White and Jesse. We don't need the "lost tapes" lol. Both of those scenes were just so cringey.
Post by: Stevesie60 on August 14, 2022, 04:32:09 PM
The last 3 episodes have confirmed what I was worried about, which is that the origin stories of Mike and Gus are the reason the show has been so great. The scams that Jimmy/Saul pull are really fun, but outside of those, the Saul storyline is pretty boring.
Post by: MakeItRain on August 15, 2022, 02:28:03 AM
The only thing I didn't like was how Gus killed Lalo, that was really stupid, and then the scene with Gus, Eladio, and Hector, equally stupid. Could they not write a more believable way for Gus to beat the Salamancas?
Post by: Stevesie60 on August 15, 2022, 04:24:59 AM
Gus has an inflated self esteem because of a lucky shot that killed his antithesis, and I think it's intentionally written to be like Walt's inflated self esteem based on something comparable. In BCS it was a much less glorious death of the antagonist to really drive the point home, but it seems very intentionally related to the way the protagonist kills his biggest enemy in BB.
Post by: MakeItRain on August 15, 2022, 11:29:17 AM
I'll defend the writers' decision on that, but it's related to BB (spoilers ahead).

I do know how Gus dies in BB. What you described is far too smart for me, my mind is far too basic to fathom that.
Post by: Saulbadguy on August 15, 2022, 01:15:15 PM
I've really enjoyed the last few episodes and I didn't even watch BB. I wasn't bothered or confused by Walter and Jesse's scenes.
The only thing I didn't like was how Gus killed Lalo, that was really stupid, and then the scene with Gus, Eladio, and Hector, equally stupid. Could they not write a more believable way for Gus to beat the Salamancas?
There was literal fire in Gus eyes when he looked at Hector during that scene.
Bravo, Vince.

-i spent this entire series wondering about Mike's daughter in law and his granddaughter. Do they have a role and resolution in BB or do they just exist to seemingly humanize Mike?
-They gave a big time spoiler about Walter White on tonight's finale and it was 100% unnecessary.
-Until Kim was introduced to the finale in the last 20 minutes, all of the things discussed were about things he did on BB. He didn't have any charges related to anything we saw on BCS.
-Was the bus ride to prison scene related to something on BB?
-Why did Howard's widow call Kim? I didn't get that at all.
Post by: Stevesie60 on August 17, 2022, 08:10:33 AM
I see the frustration in the things he was being charged for only occurring on Breaking Bad, but obviously those are insane things to have done and outside of robbing that store they are way more recent than anything they showed in Better Call Saul.
The bus ride thing was very strange. I definitely thought it was going to lead to the prisoners getting the bus to stop and Saul having a plan to get them all free. I definitely did not see it going in a way that redeemed Saul to some extent.

Gus has an inflated self esteem because of a lucky shot that killed his antithesis, and I think it's intentionally written to be like Walt's inflated self esteem based on something comparable. In BCS it was a much less glorious death of the antagonist to really drive the point home, but it seems very intentionally related to the way the protagonist kills his biggest enemy in BB.
:love: i missed Stevesie BB analysis
Jerome Tang was a great hire!
(that's just a hilarious joke about thinking you meant "basketball analysis" when you clearly meant "Breaking Bad analysis")

Yes to all of michigancat's comments. I had an audible reaction to the Sin City-esque lit cigarette.If you're going to try to pull that corny crap, why not do it with his suit in the courtroom???? The cigarette was the worst intersection of goofball-y and arty film school crap but at least a colored suit would have been full on campy and fun.
