I've come to the conclusion that it is better. The highs were higher on BB, but BCS is more consistent and has a better grasp on its sense of humor. It wastes litttle to no time on boring characters and shitty subplots.

Oh. Yeah, this might be better than BB. Maybe. But it's no Better call Saul.
I agree.

The episode also shows why pastor Tim works in the story, illustrating the internal struggle in Paige and reminding the viewer that P & E are in this incredible dance between losing their born identities and “living their cover”

Season 3 has been amazing so far. Pretty much everything is better than S2, the acting, the story, the framing, music...Noah Emmerich is stealing the show. And Keri Russell is superb. Cant believe there are 3 more seasons.

Still in season 2 so I'm scared to read this thread, but holy moly, season 2 episode 9 "Martial Eagle." That bumped this show into Breaking Bad and Sopranos territory for me.
