***Official "Space Blanket" for Better Call Saul*** (3 Viewers)

I could never figure that out.  Like the Cunningham's had any idea who those dissolved bodies once were.  Talk about your garbled messages.

Since each barrel had two arms and two legs, an example of a mixed meatafour.

I think the drummers in Spinal Tap all died spectacularly in cartel-related misadventures - murdered by rival factions that have splintered off, meth lab explosions, poisoned Tequila, wheel chair bombs, automated machine guns in car trunks, executed for their own bloody trail of assasinations of shady amp makers that don't go up to 11 and incompetent Stonehenge stage prop makers that can't read scale specs.

Two great theme songs, among my favorites ever:

Sanford and Son (bass is BUMPIN)

The Jeffersons

Wexler was on Whitney. I swear it was pretty good for a network sitcom, and miles better than Cummings' other sitcom (a very low bar of course). I think Jutz and I are the only people on Earth that liked it. Maybe Vince Gilligan was also a fan.

it was tolerable

I'm now viewing the revelation that you can't fingerprint vomit with more pathos.  It was really a plaintive cry for unfulfilled justice.

Your list corrected for accuracy.  Of course the correction comes from an un-tatooed man so I presume you may wish to dismiss it, since, you know, I'm not bona fide.

LOL.....awwww dont take my general  comments personal bro....im just playin

 

[comfortably numb]

shows on guys

 

[Slapdash]

Opening scene was great

 

[BustedKnuckles]

loved the war hero scam hahaha

 

[elbowrm]

This season is moving too slowly for me.  Feels good to get that out.  Almost like they decided going in that they had five or six seasons instead of three or four.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

LOL.....awwww dont take my general  comments personal bro....im just playin

I don't.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Awaiting Bob's insight on the print shop scene. 

 

[fantasycurse42]

Is Hommy in Breakkt bars?

 

[Hang 10]

This show is boring as hell. 

 

[Dr. Octopus]

I agree with your last except for Sanford and Son. That show was brilliant.

 

[Jaysus]

This show is boring as hell. 

Two words: Spiked. Hose. Hippy

(you pick the two)

 

[Hang 10]

Knowing this show he really is going to use that hose for his daughter in-law's garden. 

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I agree with your last except for Sanford and Son. That show was brilliant.

I liked Redd Foxx.  I found the show unwatchable.

 

[TheAristocrat]

I have really enjoyed this season and its loaded up to be a great ending.  So many things that have been shown as part of document review, I've done in my career.  Plus, reliving the days when I was in the firm.  Good stuff as always.  Can't wait to see the end of the season.

 

[TheAristocrat]

Sort of.  There is a Kimberly Wexler Tombstone in S04ep11 that many assume is hers. 

Whoa, what?

 

[The Gator]

Opening scene was great

Yeah, I had to rewind it to double check it was all in one shot.

Iirc, only time it could have been edited is right before the warehouse guy opens the back of the truck.

 

[Willie Neslon]

This show is boring as hell. 

Were we watching the same show?  I thought it was a strong episode.

My spoiler guess on what happens with these last episodes of the season:

Spoiler

Jimmy left a document in the copier.  Copy store guy calls HHM to let them know they forgot something.  They blame Kim for tampering with case.  She faces disbarment. Jimmy tries to make it right to no avail.  He loses Kim as business and romantic partner.  Kim tries to go back to other firm who gave her offer but is rebuffed.  Have feeling that her calling partner by wrong name is brought up.  Mike under pressure to provide for DiL and grand daughter's new place stages spike strip ambush to steal drugs or drug money. He ends up with way more than he thought and needs someone to launder the money, enter Jimmy who is now on the cusp of becoming Saul.

 

[The General]

Sort of.  There is a Kimberly Wexler Tombstone in S04ep11 that many assume is hers. 

WHOA

 

[Johnny Bing]

Actually felt like this episode was picking it up a little.  Really hope Jimmy sticks it to his brother.  Chuck just pisses me off. 

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I think Chuck is going to catch Jimmy's sabotage and burn down Jimmy, Kim, and even himself in exposing it.  Jimmy not succeeding is more important to chuck than even his own success and wellbeing.  Kim is going to be a relatively innocent victim in all of this, but the fault lies in her in having the bad judgment to have not cut Jimmy loose.  Chuck lives in one world, Jimmy another, and they are opposed and destructive one of the other.  Kim foolishly seeks to straddle opposed worlds, opposed concepts.  She will pay for her hubris.  She has not heeded the Mr. Miyagi warning.  (You do karate yes or you do karate no.  You do karate "guess so" you get squashed like grape in middle of road.)

 

[pantherclub]

For dummies like me how would a wrong address screw everything up?

 

[Fariq]

For dummies like me how would a wrong address screw everything up?

It would make Chuck look like an old geezer who is losing his mind

Yeah, I even got the feeling he was being set-up.

Either way, Kim getting ####ed is obviously inevitable at some point, which sucks.

Especially since it's not by me.

I meant, like, now, genius.

 

[Capella]

Anybody think we see the formal transition to Saul before the season ends? I'm guessing it's the last thing we see in the finale. 

 

[joey]

I think they milk the Saul transition for another couple of seasons. 

 

[Daywalker]

I enjoyed seeing Chuck play the part of the con-man.

 

[Homer J Simpson]

For as deliberately paced as the show is, I'm always surprised at how fast it seems to go. It always ends with me expecting another 10 minutes. 

 

[Homer J Simpson]

 It always ends with me expecting another 10 minutes. 

That's what she said. 

 

[BustedKnuckles]

i know ....i just wanted an opportunity to showcase the best sitcoms ever ....no offence was intended  

 

[Hov34]

I enjoyed seeing Chuck play the part of the con-man.

It's like I said in an earlier post but am too lazy to look up.  Chuck and Howard are every bit the con-artist/slim-ball lawyer that Jimmy/Saul is - it's just that Jimmy embraces it while Hamlin, Hamlin & McGill hide behind pomp and $5,000 suits.

 

[Hov34]

Btw, the guy that plays Howard just crushes it every time.  Such a doosh.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I don't see it this season, but definitely within a couple, and we should get another couple of him living it up in the role 

anyone have thoughts on what he was filming with the fake war vet?

 

[McJose]

Some really bad amateur pron?

He's a natural.

Commercial for new business.

I'll assume it was an ad to pimp his "elder law" specialty.
