I get the parallels of Jimmy/Saul's and Kim's optimistic hopes for their work being immediately thwarted by the harsh worst-case scenarios of those situations They each have a platonic ideal for their respective positions that melt in the face of the darkest criminalist/corporatism

I missed the last two scenes of the first episode because it ran long and they put a commercial at exactly 11:00. AMC is idiots.

Gonna be honest, I thought Kim was bullshitting with that origin story until I saw how loving hurt she was when he didn't think she was telling the truth.

in a weird way Jimmy was extremely smart in this episode, quickly diagnosing the situation, not making anything worse by arguing, and getting the job done

I don’t get that one personally, to me it seemed like she got caught up in lying to the guy but broke down part way through. I took it as another sign that she just can’t handle living the way Saul/Jimmy does, even when her hearts in the right place. Who is the actor for Mr Axler? I cannot place him for the life of me despite knowing him from all kinds of roles. E: I’m dumb, but did I miss some significance of the photo in the bar for Mike?

It was the Sydney Opera House- Werner told Mike how his father helped build it.

I can't help but anticipate the worst sort of cheap, gently caress the viewer twists involving Kim since that car crash. Went from her getting in another accident, to her getting disbarred for breaking and entering, to her being a victim of the castle doctrine, to her being traumatized by a suicide.

I can't tell if it's nicely seamless or glaringly contrived that Lalo is calling Nacho "Ignacio" in order that it'll make sense later in BB when Saul calls him Ignacio even though he knew him as Nacho earlier.

Gonna be a nitpicking little rear end on this but I was a little disappointed to discover that the soccer game Nacho was watching wasn't time accurate; Belarus and Mexico have only played each other once in international friendlies and that was in 2018. Obviously one can't be perfect on these things but I was really hoping to be amazed at the attention to detail rather than a "dangit!" moment.

Lalo seems like the type to call him by his full name. Doesn't he also call Mike "Michael"? Also, I can't help but hear Lalo repeating "Vur-nur ZEE-glur" whenever I think of this show.

Like that exchange between Not-Wilford Brimley and Kim was a loving amazing set up of the conflict that's going to destroy the relationship between the main protagonists of the show and goons choose to post about how the background soccer match wasn't historically accurate. gently caress this is a worthless dead forum

UZR IS BULLSHIT posted:Came here to be like "wow that was an amazing hour of human drama" and talk about how the near complete lack of score added to the tension, and once again I have to post: yeah I deserve that. It's an amazing episode; every one is. I think I've been sucked into that side of the fandom where I'm trying to get so detail oriented to catch all the little symbols and metaphor. I got caught in a weird rabbit hole thinking that the game might have some symbolism (or at least give a direct timeline moment which could provide some temporal context). In all honesty it kinda ruined the scene with Nacho and his father because that was punch in the gut; for a second I really thought Nacho had found a way to get his dad out of danger but my brain kept swinging back to that stupid game.

I'm sure this is an idiotic question but when Nacho and his dad talk, why are all the lights off in the house? Is there some symbolism there? Prior to them sitting down you can see a lamp on in the living room, so I don't get why they are sitting and talking in the dark.

Prior to them sitting down you can see a lamp on in the living room, so I don't get why they are sitting and talking in the dark. It's actually a really interesting idea; considering physical light and darkness has been such an important part of the Chuck/Jimmy relationship maybe there's some idea that conversations in the dark have to do with familial confrontation? I think we'd need to go back and do some examination of previous scenes but there's an interesting hypothesis at least.

Prior to them sitting down you can see a lamp on in the living room, so I don't get why they are sitting and talking in the dark. Nacho is hanging out in hot Albuquerque with two tweakers. When his father leaves, he’s stuck sitting in darkness, his father embracing the path of light. I looked up the distance from where Kim had to go and Albuquerque, it’s more than 170 miles. The fact that she had any composure left when she got there is amazing. Lalo is such a good villain, one the series has been lacking since Chuck. He is canny, plays his cards close to his chest, and he’s exactly as menacing as he needs to be, never more. It’s funny to see him beat Giancarlo. Gus is amazing but he’s not the mastermind he’s going to be, so seeing him have to leave half a million on the table just to keep a pipeline open is amazing. And yet the last episode started with two tweakers you probably have 300 bucks between them. This show is as expansive a look at the drug war as the Wire was.

I thought Kim was going to go back and give the curmudgeon some nasty legal trick to use against Mesa Verde. I am really, really hoping that she goes down the Saul rabbithole and sticks by his side. They're doing a great job of having her go back and forth, she clearly envies Jimmy's newfound freedom. It's surprising how far we've come with Jimmy, he's completely transformed now; I see very little difference between where he is now and Breaking Bad Saul - it's just a matter of scale and success as he realises how much money that he can make with his shtick. There's no way he'd stop for Kim now, he's having too much fun. The only persons' judgement he ever really cared about was Chuck.
