yeah, I thought so too.
Me too. But what the fuck do I know?

But this show is a delight and I enjoy every episode immensely. Love the pace of it, the character moments, and the modest battles within it. This last episode was just a tiny step down for me.

I've only seen praise for him. Maybe Jorge really is just a hipster doofus?

it might start getting a little tricky as time/seasons go by, since mr banks is no spring chicken. he's supposed to be a younger, pre-BB version of mike (obviously), but that's going to be a tougher sell as time goes on.

same goes for any other BB character they bring back.. i don't want to see a 38 year old aaron paul coming back to play 22 year old jesse or anything.

They'll just cake his face in makeup and shine really bright lights at him. It will be fine.

How old was Mike's granddaughter supposed to be in Breaking Bad? Because she looks the same age on Better Call Saul. Maybe constantly swinging on swings slows the aging process.

I'm guessing she's 4-5 in Better Call Saul, 10-11 in Breaking Bad.

i'm sure. it's not a huge problem for me.. it's just pretty obvious that the guy looks and moves like a noticeably older man than BB mike.

but yea, who cares? if the show wasn't as solid as it's been, it would be a bigger issue.
