VinylGuy could be right but I don't know why Vince Gilligan would say "I am not involved in the creative direction of this show anymore, I can't wait to see how they end it" while secretly pulling the strings behind the curtain. Seems pointless

Kim could do a lot better than Jimmy. He's a garbage person and he's dragging her down.

Jorge in the world of sports this kind of “deviation from the facts” happens all the time with coaches and player personnel ... seems like it is very possible in the TV world, too. To throw people off.

I think if Vince Gilligan is involved in the final season of BCS as a writer or showrunner again, it will be announced in the press leading up to the season premiere, not via some weird "gotcha!" secret tactic that 99.999% of the oublic won't care about

It would actually make sense for him to do so, considering that by that point the show will be presumably sliding into Breaking Bad territory. But as of halfway through season 3 (when he left to make his Jim Jones show), the guy has been hands-off from BCS except as a director for hire. Unless he's been lying to us for two years for mysterious reasons

You should hear Bob Odenkirk do his Vince Gilligan impression, it's great

You would think Vince would always have had one hand on the wheel with this show.

what if Kim died in that car accident and the Kim we've seen since then is just a figment of Jimmy's imagination?
