This show does fart around a lot. Compellingly.

Re: TV: Better Call Saul
I think people look at relationships that aren't primarily sexual and see no romance / love; it's kinda sad

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.

I think that Kim has her tender moments, and Saul, being a stickler for fine detail, sees them; but he also lets her be stoic and serious; I think their relationship is beautifully written and acted, I find the show a bit dull when their dynamic is not at the center

yeah, their relationship is very well done, feels super real. Kim has a lot of tender moments that ring true to her character.

Re: TV: Better Call Saul
Also I think the show subtly communicates that sex is very much part of their relationship. Remember that episode that ended with them throwing bottles from the balcony, and then the next episode starts with them nude in bed with the whole room around them in complete disarray like someone did some vigorous fucking? There's several little moments like that throughout

Maybe Trag is going through a B phase were he needs to see stuff, like Kim in the rain looking at Jimmy with a smile.

Re: TV: Better Call Saul
Remember when she went to jail to visit Lalo during Bagman because she was worried about Jimmy being gone? Enough to go visit the cartel guy and try to reason with him? Then at the end of Bagman when Jimmy finally calls her and she breaks down into tears of relief? That’s love.Ms Harmless wrote:oh sure I get thattragabigzanda wrote:It's not just about sex here, though that's part of it. But she's generally a hard-shell woman. It's fine.
