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.

Well, if we are doing BB spoilers ITT, there is a point in BB where saul makes mention of having a wife.  Iirc, he acts like it was a long time ago and a difficult sitch.

I don't want Kim to go.  I really like her.

Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

Chuck is such a major bad person. He knows that Jimmy could have him committed, knows that Jimmy won't do it, and still wants to ruin him.

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.

Also, I am as much, if not more, into the Mike story as the Jimmy story. 

I really do love this show.  I read yesterday that they have been picked up for a third season already.

I mean, that one guy that was trying to get him to kill Tuco would be the only one who I would have ever guessed would have helped him, but HE WAS STANDING RIGHT THERE WITH THE SALAMONCAS!!!!

Was it Gus?  Surely not.  Gus wouldn't GAF about that, right?  If he did, he would big time Mike, and not do something so sketch, right?

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."

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.

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.

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 mean, the branch in the car has to be Gus, right?  He's the only one in the series who is smarter than him.

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.
