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.

Finally caught up on this.

Hearing that they recast Jeff the cab driver from season 5 (the guy who recognized Saul in the cab and then harassed him at the mall). Apparently the original actor was not available due to commitments to a different show. A bummer, those buggley eyes were wonderfully unnerving.

You can see and hear the new guy in the teaser below

Looks like The Old Man beat these guys to it.

The Breaking Bad version of Saul is surprisingly murderous. On BCS, Jimmy/Saul is constantly hatching schemes to solve his problems. Non-murderous schemes.
I didn't keep count, but on BB he proposes murder as a solution multiple times. It's a little jarring, knowing him as I do now.
These are irreconcilably different dudes, BB Saul and BCS Saul/Jimmy

One can only wonder what would inspire such a change in a person.
