***Official "Space Blanket" for Better Call Saul*** (4 Viewers)

Enjoyed it.

Save for the ridiculous breach of privilege and expectation of others invoked that privilege should be breached.

And I'm at my Dershowitz end with this game. You're just being a #### deguerin and you're Allred in the face.

 
I enjoyed sipping my Rusty Nail while watching tonight. :thumbup:

Feels like a weekly tradition brewing.

 
Think it was A. Greenwald that said on Grantland, Gilligan just great at making TV. Why shouldn't this be good.

The subtle things like Saul trying to get the courage to make a tense phone call. Superb writing.

I was worried this show would lean too funny and episodic. Looks like we got a serious serial. Saul and Banks are terrific. What's not to like?

Much better then Fargo if we want to talk recent "award" winning shows.

 
Loving this show. Its weird, I know I'm watching Saul in a BB prequel, but when I'm watching I almost forget this is pre-BB...it feels familiar but it completely stands on its own IMO. Had I not watched BB, I think I'd still enjoy it...probably not quite as much I do knowing about Mike, Tuco, etc, but I think they're doing a great job not relying too heavily on BB and showing us right out of the gate who these characters are and what they're about without a half a season of development. The BB references and nods are just a great bonus, and I find myself really trying to take each whole scene in, from the actors to the details in the background. Its really fun to watch.

This, Shameless, GOT, and Walking Dead (for now) are my only must watch shows right now.

Gilligan has a new show debuting on CBS called "Battle Creek". It's based on a pilot he wrote more than ten years ago that was rejected by everyone. The previews make it look like a standard cop buddy show, but Gilligan has certainly earned the benefit of the doubt that it will elevate beyond that basic concept.

 
Best line of the episode:

Hey Cagney, Lacey: when you realize how wrong you were about all this, I'll take an edible arrangement as a sorry - heavy on the pineapple.

:lmao:

 
That wasn't the White backyard, was it? Sure looked a lot like it, if not. (no shtick)

 
Careful guys, don't get too excited, in a minute a wave of posters will come in and tell you that you really didn't like the episode.

 
After the first 30 minutes of Episode 3, my interest was waning. But my interest was re-piqued in the last 10 minutes of the third episode. I'm in for another week.

 
Jesus Christ you guys are weird.

Well I didn't like the first 8 minutes or minutes 27-36 but I was kind of into the final 3.5 minutes so I'll give next week another quarter hour and re-evaluate then.

Too bad he already spilled the beans about finding them. He could have kept a cut of that cash, found a way to clear Nacho without giving up the Ketterman's, and given Nacho a big cut of his share.

 
I love the interactions with Mike. Mike was my favorite character on BB. Seeing Jimmy taunt him is very enjoyable. I am looking forward to their relationship and when Jimmy finally discovers the danger he unknowingly put himself in by doing so. I mean I don't know that Mike is bad now, he may be trying to live a clean life after Philadelphia, and maybe he gets sucked back in like Jimmy or he might already be in the thug life and turn out to be Jimmy's conduit into that world instead of or in addition to Nacho/Tuco. So much to look forward to for me.

You at the end when the screen goes dark and the first credit appears on the screen and you say to yourself "wait, it's been an hour? that's it??"....that's how you know its a good episode.

I did notice how similar the back yard was to Walt's but didn't think it was the house.

As he was driving up the street it looked like so many shots of Walt driving up. Freaked me out. I was thinking, ####, do the Ketterman's live next door to Walt, but I would hope they don't do anything like that. The worlds will overlap enough as it is.

 
Just enjoy the show and quit worrying about ranking it after each episode.

You know its got good writing and acting.

That alone should be worth your investment for a full season.

 
Great moment: When Jimmy calls the Kettlemans to warn them and gets that terrible/cheesy answering message from 'Team Kettleman." He just looks at the phone and hangs up. :lmao:

I was rooting for him to get back in the car and leave. Anyone who leaves an answering message like that deserves to die.

I thought the best part of that scene was when they finally answered. He tries to give them warnings over his "sexy robot" voice, they don't understand. So he just yells the warning to them and then says...Okay, Bye. :lol:

 
A little too convenient that Jimmy could find the Ultimate white family so easily.

As Jimmy was walking his route up the hill to find the family we have classic high dessert flora. Then, inexplicably he is in a cottonwood grove. It looked to me like the same cottonwood grove down by the river where Walt offed Mike, just shot from a different angle. I am not seeing a cottonwood grove in the high country Jimmy was walking.

The start up credit sequence has a chick with very red nail polish ashing a cigarette into the scales of justice. The cigs had red lipstick on them. The nail color and the lipstick color seemed the same as the bar chick Jimmy was hitting on in episode #2.

The backyard was definitely not Walter White's backyard shot from a different angle.

I'm highly entertained so far. There's no way to say how different I'd feel if I hadn't seen Breaking Bad, but I don't find myself making comparisons very often while watching.

I know this will fall on deaf ears for those prone to doing so, but picking the show apart for illogical stuff is an exercise in futility. BCS is slightly surreal (or maybe I mean hyperreal) and it's meant to be that way. Breaking Bad was, too (Magnets, Great Train Robbery, Trunk Arsenal), but saying so is treated like cussing in church.

Anyway, I'm in for the long haul

Why can't something like that still happen?

Saul blackmails the Kettlemans into giving him say half. Saul then gives a portion to Nacho

Saul then needs to somehow assist in the Kettleman's defense without actually getting them as clients.

Yep. Not that hard to sweep this under rug. Saul says he found them, they settle on specific dollar amount to keep quite. Saul pays Nacho small amount to keep him happy.

Kettleman's say they were camping, someone must have broke into their house while they were gone looking for the money.
