Well put. Can't wait for S2.

I think they should have called it a "Cicero sunroof" instead of a "Chicago sunroof"...if it's something done in Chicago, it would have been better known.

This is kinda my feeling too. He was getting everything he wanted and all of a sudden he doesn't even go to the meeting. Even with all the emotional trauma with Chuck, it's just not realistic.

This is a good solid drama and a good successor to Breaking Bad. While BB and BCS are both well cast, Bryan Cranston was so unbelievably good as Walter White, that there is no way it would have been half as good without him. And I think that's what separates BB and BCS the most.

While doing yardwork yesterday I listened to this panel discussion with the cast and creators, which was recorded a few weeks ago. It's pretty good:

Interesting that they haven't ruled out future seasons taking place in Omaha or concurrently with the Breaking Bad timeline. And they joke about a spin-off of Mike in his Philadelphia days, but I'd watch the crap out of that show.

Kind of funny how I was getting a bunch of shit for merely suggesting that some scenes could take place during the Breaking Bad timeline in one of the earlier episodes this season and now it seems like it hasn't been ruled out by the creators. I definitely think that could make some sense and would be a good way to tie some of the characters from Better Call Saul to Breaking Bad.

no, you were getting shit on because you said that Kim and Chuck and Howard not being in any scenes in Breaking Bad means they must be dead or have moved far away from ABQ.

Way to put words in my post that were never there to begin with. I questioned their fates. I didn't say anything about what did or didn't happen to them.

My original post from February 17th after the episode Nacho. I definitely implied that everyone was dead or moved away or whatever else...

I did put the wrong firm name though.

I finally caught up with the rest of this season after stopping around episode four or five. I really enjoyed the finale, precisely because it wasn't a typical "finale". It resolved the primary narrative and thematic drive of the season, and there was no big cliff hanger or huge set piece thrown in just because.

Overall, the show is way better than I expected. It's no Breaking Bad, the subject matter just isn't as interesting or appealing, but they did a great job fleshing out Saul's character which was my big concern for this show. While he was great in BB, he was somewhat one note. Great for hilarious quips and criminal know-how, but not much going on there as a person. They really took him in a surprising and interesting direction.

I think they also made a lot of smart choices this season with the Breaking Bad character tie-ins, keeping it interesting while adding depth and history to Saul's character. Mike's character was an obvious highlight of the season as well and not something I expected.

I do wonder if he will be a recurring character going forward. I certainly hope so. I'm really excited for the show going forward. I think we'll get a lot more in the way of criminal behavior and Jimmy/Saul getting in way over his head.
