Tough to judge after two episodes IMO. I think they've laid a decent foundation so far and still had two entertaining episodes with a couple of memorable scenes but I would also agree if someone thought they dragged a little. As others have said, you can't go in to this expecting BB or you will be disappointed.
Didn't five seasons of BB show us how he ended up there?What I meant was, I don't think we see anything beyond that point in time. We will probably see a little of how he ended up there, but I am only guessing maybe a few episodes at the end of the run.I would be stunned if they don't.Not a chance, IMO.I wouldn't be surprised if they pick it up on the other side of Breaking Bad.
You think that was the only time you see post-Bad Saul? No way.
Probably some courthouse scene as a court assigned public defender of Badger I'd guess without looking back to see where he really first showed up on BB.
I mean a few episodes that cover where we last saw him on BB to first scene of BCS.Didn't five seasons of BB show us how he ended up there?What I meant was, I don't think we see anything beyond that point in time.

I believe there is a LOT of that happening in this thread. This show in a vacuum would just be "pretty good." People in here are so desperately wanting it to be another BB that they'll convincing themselves they love it a little more than they really do.
I think the optimism about this show is not because people think it will be another BB, but that they know the creators/writers/directors are among the best at their craft and they trust that talent to produce a top-notch show.
OK, yeah, that might be cool.I mean a few episodes that cover where we last saw him on BB to first scene of BCS.Didn't five seasons of BB show us how he ended up there?What I meant was, I don't think we see anything beyond that point in time.

I agree. Unless they only plan for this to be one season, it would seem very surprising to me to show the very end of the series in the very first scene. Even though showing the end of season 5 at the beginning of was a pretty effective tool in BB, that was a much shorter period to cover.Capella said:I would be stunned if they don't.shuke said:Not a chance, IMO.Homer J Simpson said:I wouldn't be surprised if they pick it up on the other side of Breaking Bad.shuke said:

It's hard to say. I just didn't find myself hurrying to watch the 2nd episode. It was more like a, oh yeah - I gotta watch the 2nd one. And throughout, I just wasn't loving it. I'm going to continue watching because I did like it and I'm sure I will continue to like it. It's just not grabbing me real hard up front.TenTimes said:
Yeah, that's exactly what those of us who aren't loving it were saying...
I think AMC already ordered a second season.I agree. Unless they only plan for this to be one season, it would seem very surprising to me to show the very end of the series in the very first scene.

Thx.kutta was the one guy who didn't like True Detective also. I think his standards and/or expectations are just really high.
Bad taste maybe?kutta was the one guy who didn't like True Detective also. I think his standards and/or expectations are just really high.

yes that's exactly what I think.Nothing else to know. He has a terrible new life where he will live in fear and remember the good ole days until he is old and dead. Nothing else to explore.Capella said:I would be stunned if they don't. You think that was the only time you see post-Bad Saul?

Good memory!For reference, shows I love - breaking bad, weeds, sopranos, californication, Boardwalk empire, curb your enthusiasm.kutta was the one guy who didn't like True Detective also. I think his standards and/or expectations are just really high.
Yes there is. Someone could recognize him. He could get sick of life and go on one big scam which if he is successful he can buy an island, if not he goes down like WW.yes that's exactly what I think.Nothing else to know.

Like I said, he knows where Huell is. They left that open, just incase.
They started a new show just to focus on this guy. You have to remember, by season 4 we will be at least 5-6 years removed from breaking bad so it won't feel so much like it is stepping on that show. I think they show him eventually try to pick himself up and improve his situation.yes that's exactly what I think.Nothing else to know.

And keep in mind, while Walter's face was probably plastered all over the news, Saul would have been a footnote. Yeah, he's wanted, but probably not too recognizable outside of ABQ.They started a new show just to focus on this guy.

Just came here to post this same thing. Finishing up my first ever as a post Valentine's Day dinner drink. Delicious.The twist of lime cuts the medicinal flavor nicely, fyi.
