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.

Just watched last weeks episode. The commercial thing was dumb. No clue why he was so nervous and did what he did. His character is smart enough and a good enough talker to easily get approval to air it in some form. Tried way too hard to create a situation to create friction between him and the firm. He's also smart enough to know that if he's going rogue he should just use a phone number and not the firm name. None of that story line made sense.

Didn't know this was a documentary, interesting

chum1 · « **Reply #256 on:** March 06, 2016, 09:07:14 AM »

Made sense to me. He knew what he wanted to do and that the firm would never go for it. Happens to me.

I have a feeling i'm going to hate the crap out of that younger attorney gal by the end of this season.

I like the connection with Breaking bad. It's starting to come together, but it's super slow. Still better than 90% of the crap on right now.

Really? I loved her. The yin to Jimmy's yang.

I'm guessing she stays legit and keeps getting crap on while Jimmy's shortcuts largely pay off

I don't think Jimmy will be at Davis & Mane for very long.

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.

he saw the commercial the firm put out and it sucked. he did his own thing because he knew the firm would never approve of it.

seems simple to understand to me?

I also think it was a timing issue to some extent. If it took 6 months of meetings to agree to the mesothelioma blurb, he knew that would take more for his vision. And time is not something nursing home residents and potential plaintiffs have.

Good episode. Very little Jimmy.

Good episode, however next week's preview was my favorite part

MakeItRain · « **Reply #267 on:** March 21, 2016, 11:16:33 PM »

most boring episode of the series thus far

chum1 · « **Reply #268 on:** March 21, 2016, 11:27:55 PM »

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.

Best part of the episode. I hope Kim doesn't take that job

Kim sporting a nice Royals shirt.

A little slow at times, but it set up lot of stuff, it served its purpose.

The Mike stuff was pretty great, imo

I was annoyed they didnt show how Kim got the check. No complaints other than that.
