It takes zero effort to add a spoiler code when writing a post, or to click one open when reading one. Unfortunately, we've been through this a number of times, and the selfishness and pettiness of people like Wease and Given knows no bounds, so I've pretty much given up on it. Not everyone is at the same point in the show, and sometimes you absent-mindedly click on a thread before having watched the latest episode. For example, this happened to me right before watching the finale, and I accidentally read a post by Stickman about how Mike was forced to murder the German engineer after he snuck out of the site to meet up with his wife.tree_ wrote:I've seen almost every episode.. my dvr is being weird and hiding one or two eps from me...

Re: TV: Better Call Saul
Good post. Finished this yesterday. Fully agree with what you wrote about Mike. That was the biggest revelation here. Also Lalo was top notch in the last few episodes.theplatypus wrote:Wow. A beautiful and heartbreaking finale for a rich and complex season.
- The episode had me from the start with that wonderful cold open. The writers played some mind games on us with this one.
- The "lab building" subplot was never about building a lab, but about Mike slowly crossing his own personal lines in Gus's service. This was the first time he kills for him. It won't be the last.
- The parallels between Werner and Walter White are STRONG. This illuminates Mike's (and Gus's) relationship with Walt in a number of ways. I kept having flashbacks to the Walt of seasons 3 and 4 of Breaking Bad. Groveling, wheedling, bargaining.
- Lalo is so fucking cool. I can't wait to see what they do with him in season 5.
- Someone please give Odenkirk an award already. He was outstanding all through this episode.
- Also some great, understated work from Rhea Seehorn during and immediately after Odenkirk's monologue.
- And what a rollercoaster ride that monologue was. It felt tender and real, like a true act of closure for the brothers after all the shit that happened between them... and then to have the rug pulled out from under you as an audience and feel like a complete sucker for buying it.
- The transformation is complete, and it has been for a while.
I'm so happy with this

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

But I am seeing that there's actually not a lot of detail, and it could be any number of things -- a follow-up, another prequel, some sort of in-between-seasons story... the possibility exists that it could be good but I'm wary

That is a popular theory. When she interviewed at Davis & Main in s2, she mentioned she was from around the area where Jimmy ended up.
