TV: Better Call Saul

[Mecca]

I believe the endgame is:
1. Humiliate Howard
2. Force a Sandpiper settlement of which they're entitled to a hefty portion (Kim wanted to start her legal defense fund/group with this money which is ironic since she just had that handed to her on a silver platter by Cliff and she u-turned).

Walt turned down Gretchen and Elliott when they offered to pay for his treatment…

Great ep. Fire the directors and let the cast direct every episode. jk, the show's always good.

I actually cried when Jim and Kimmy kissed.

[VinylGuy]

yeah, but are they in love though

[Mecca]

yeah, but are they in love though

Pretty sure they’re just friends

Jim and Kimmy is appropriate too

Listening to the insider podcast, I am surprised to hear how he pronounces Esposito

having the rare experience of reading a thread that then increases my appreciation of the thread’s object.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. 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 remember him being in NYPD blue playing two different characters. The first character died and then he played a different guy a season or two later. That was weird.

guys I haven't watched the latest episode; I'm getting inexplicably bored, I feel like the show could have been wrapped up in 5 seasons like Breaking Bad if they didn't faff around with artistic close ups and finding the most complicated way possible to say the simplest things

I'm kind of sad that I feel this way, I generally feel fond of the Vince-verse

im the opposite.

Im fascinated by this season. I really appreciate its taking the time to develop its characters and motives. Its also something tv is not doing at all these days.

I think this season is actually a step up in terms of filmmaking. I think episode 5 was the weakest of the season so far but even that had a lot to enjoy. Episode 6 was beatiful, so many great moments, not the least of which is that gorgeous scene with Mike looking over Kaylee as they talk about the stars. I continue to stan

More, more, more of this forever please

[Ms Harmless]

lol

[Ms Harmless]

I’m not that far gone, but I agree this season feels like a bit of a drop. Nothing feels urgent to me. Just kind of like I’m waiting out the clock for the dovetail with breaking bad, and the answers to Saul’s Cinnabon future.

the only thing I care about anymore is Saul and Kim's fate and that could have happened last season easily

the thing is, I like how unnecessarily artful the show is; I don't care about crime thrillers but I cared about these shows... it's just, time to wrap!

I read "mid season finale" and shrugged

[Ms Harmless]

hopefully there's an upswing in the last half
