Way too much time passing in between.
It's a year. That's pretty much the norm for every single show.
Yeah I get it...but it was a highly abbreviated season. Hopefully a full one won't make it feel like there is such a gap.

 
Binged all of Season 1 the other day. Better the second time around.
Watched two a day since Thursday so will be caught up for the Monday night premier. Agreed, it has been great the second time around, interesting to see instances of foreshadowing with the benefit of hindsight.

Trevor Vs. Mike

Soundtrack from the caper scene in Bingo where Mike steals back the embezzled Kettleman money, six minutes with no dialogue, sort of a mini version of the classic noir Rififi '55 (30 minute heist scene with no music and minimal dialogue), no video, song is Tune Down by Chris Joss

I just recently got to watch season 1 and I have to say the Marco episode really shook me. That guy was willing to trade a week of euphoria with his friend vs the rest of his boring life. A lot of folks walking around like Marco thru life. Amazing acting, that actor made me care about an ugly 6 foot 350 lb drunk more than I ever thought I would. 

This show is amazing. So lucky to have it on the air for however long they want to keep entertaining us. I could watch Mike chew gum for an hour. The scene where he takes the lead security role and disposes of the other 2 and doesn't even bring a gun/piece, priceless. 

I really feel for Saul and understand how he lost his conscience. Mike McKean, wanted to choke him when he calls Jimmy a monkey with a machine gun, such bitter betrayal. 

Can't wait to see what's next. 

 
Just watching scenes from the eps running now.

Amazing how it seems like every single scene is so perfectly done. Very little is wasted.
When I did my Breaking Bad marathon (62 episodes in 31 days), I also went back and watched every episode that had Gilligan's commentary.

He is a genius story-teller. 

 
I have a funny feeling this "I don't need your services, Mike" approach by Pryce is not going to work out as he intended.
