Because of the Gene stuff, I’m gonna do Saul after BB

That only makes sense if the Gene stuff takes up most of season 6 (a definite possibility)

Yeah I think at this point, Better Call Saul makes the first season of Breaking Bad kind of look like amateur hour.

I can't say the same for later seasons of Breaking Bad though, hell the new episode of Better Call Saul was straight up Breaking Bad.

No. It makes sense because the Gene stuff takes place after BB.

You could do a thing where you make a chronological edit where you pull out the Gene stuff and the flashbacks from all the different series and the movie and put it in order

various flashbacks from all the different series
Better Call Saul (Jimmy/Saul stuff)
Breaking Bad
El Camino
Gene stuff from BCS

with the BB-era flashbacks from El Camino and the BCS-era flashbacks from BB spliced in as appropriate.

Someone on reddit will do it eventually

What would be the very first scene? Jimmy stealing money from his dad's cash register, I think.

Sounds like a terrible viewing experience... also the first scene would be Chuck reading that story to Jimmy by lantern light

There's a flashback in BB with a young Hector Salamanca, but that was when the twins were kids, so the BCS flashback of young Jimmy and the one of young Kim would still be earlier

Most memorable Mike moment from BCS?

- "YOU ARE DONE. YOU ARE DONE" at little Kaylee?
- "I broke my boy"?
- Blood-spitting "is that all you got" at Tuco?
- Beating up on that street thug and turning to his crew like "so?"
- "Pimento sandwich"?
- A different moment I'm not remembering (so it couldn't have been that memorable)?

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.

According to the ID we saw a couple of episodes ago, Jimmy is 44 years old at this point in the story, and Kim is 36. The actors are 57 and 48 respectively but they pull it off I think

Yeah, the ages don't bother me other than Mike. He's really starting to show his age. An almost Deniro in the Irishman vibe.
