Very much enjoyed that episode. Some light entertainment after a few heavy hitting episodes. But now I'm even more confused about what else the last three episodes could entail...
Television Better Call Saul | Includes Breaking Bad Spoilers
- Thread starter Kinky Melinky
- Start date
So when does this get good? I stopped after what felt like a whole season of a man wrapped in tin foil.
If you watch six or seven episodes without getting invested, then it's probably not for you. Season 1 is arguably the weakest season but it doesn't change all that much in terms of style and pace.
I started enjoying it a whole lot more when I stopped watching it with preconceived notions of what I wanted it to be and just watched it for what it is.
It's utterly brilliant and, in my opinion, a better show than Breaking Bad.
Might give it a go again at some point.
I agree.
Yeah innit, ive never been 3 episodes from the end of a show before without even an inkling of what it is about
Seeing some interesting theories around the fact that after six series of degradation, the video (which Gene is watching in episode one) that is the opening credits finally broke during this episode, the tenth episode, the episode that would usually be the end of the series. The Better Call Saul universe has been wrapped up, as has the Gene universe in a way. People are speculating that the next three episodes will all be set during the Breaking Bad timeline and will therefore use the Breaking Bad intro.
That would be pretty wild.
And also it would be pretty annoying if we never saw Kim again, I don’t feel like her story got a suitable ending.
Yeah I'm not sure I'd be happy with that lack of closure either. Definitely think Kim will come back into it because of that phone call Saul mentions to his secretary in one of the flash forwards in an earlier season. Can't see who else it would be.
Not gonna lie I like the above theory, in fact I think that'd be some bonkers change up.... but I also agree with above issue too.
I reckon we'll get a spin off.
I didn't even realise there was a new season. I haven't loved the series to be honest, but enjoyed season 5, so will give this a watch.
Season 6 good?
Season 6 good?
Yes and no. On the lawyer side it starts off very slow with a storyline I struggled to get into, whereas the cartel stuff gets off to a great start. Overall I found myself slightly underwhelmed after seven episodes or so. But then it has picked up and been outstanding for the last four episodes.
I've never had a Cinnabon and now I really want to try one and I can't because they don't operate here

They’re great but hideously unhealthy, eating a full sized one in 3 minutes is good going.
Yes, that’s shoveling it in.
feck!
fecking hell no wonder the Yanks are a little on the heavy side.
Walmarts blow my mind. I fill a suitcase full of shit from them...... then sell it all on ebay, pays off a fair chunk of any trip. You can get like 2 litre can of Red Bull for like $1, sugar tax? you havin' a laugh.
Thanks for sharing.
I saw somewhere Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul did some scenes for the show, so this makes a lot of sense. IIRC Cranston said there was a scene with just him, one with Jesse where Walter wasn't in and one together?
Sad but true.

I don't think we get the explanation how he's fallen so low that he has to organise such a risky and cheap robbery? He could still bring lot of money with him when he was running away to a new identity, or at least enough that he doesn't have to risk making that kind of robbery.
He explained it at the end, “mutually assured destruction”, the guy knows who he is so he needed leverage to ensure he kept his mouth shut.
Ha. Plus Jimmy/Saul is supposed to be laying low and keeping his head down, yet he's palling around with the Mayor of Pawnee!Every day as well
Oh Jerry!
Haha so did I. I picked it up and binged the whole thing over a few weeks and it’s great. Some shows should be binged, this being one of them. Week by week would probably fees slow.
Was hilarious when the guy slipped & then Saul had to stop the guard looking at the camera.
It’s expected that they will return to Alberquerque time line because a few scenes have been shot with Walt & Jesse
But It could be possible the last 3 episode are all about Gene. If you think about it the story with Kim is done, she’s left him, nothing really needs explaining about Mike or Gus or Even Saul as that’s all explained in BB. What we need to close is Saul/Gene in Nebraska. Does getting involved in any scam ever lead to nothing, do people who have gotten a taste ever stick to their “we’re done” when there’s someone they need to help them get more.
They’re probably going to get in trouble trying to sell it… Gene ain’t heard the last of that heist or those two.
I feel like this is all building to a post Breaking Bad series tbh. There was the fake out at the end with the Saul attire but most likely it’ll be because Kim returns and has got herself in a bit of a pickle, maybe during the Breaking Bad timeline which will be revealed soon?
Good episode but it doesn’t feel like there’s only 2 episodes left.
Loved seeing Walt and Jesse though
I forgot it came out today. (swamped with work) Thanks for using spoiler tags!
I think it's leading to a definite end and not a happy one. There's only one person who can rescue him now.
Was that guy Buzz from Home Alone?
Last time I saw him was when he was in the news for trying to choke his girlfriend.
