I liked it, and of course it will get better. They need to tell the "build up" story first, which can sometimes be slow.
Gonna pick up now since he's tied in with Tuco and gang...

The desert scene was great, bargaining about the 2 twins "sentences"...1 broken leg each... :D

yeah, there was never a boring moment with walter white.

in ONE YEAR (or 18 months?, he went from chemistry teacher to blowing up Gus to running his own empire to getting caught.

(Do i have that timeline correct?)  I know he celebrated his birthday on the day he does this big violent finale - was the entire show inside that 2 year window?  that includes the time he was hiding in vermont.

So essentially this will all be about some heist to steal 1.5 mill. Kind of a weak entry to the life of crime.  And the Chuck storyline?  Really?  Seems unnessecary.  Strange setup.

Enjoyed the first 2 episodes. The story lines are building, Odenkirk carries the show nicely.

Mike looks so old and frail yet this is supposed to be years before BB.

Imagine any Lawyer showing up to your house with a car only a Getbigger could love? His car is retarded. He's not that broke that he can't half way fake decent wheels. Maybe lease Vince G's jag or something...Didn't he just buy a few $1000 suits and a massive billboard?(which would be about 25 to 50k) Yet drives around in a $500 piece of shit a high school kid wouldn't drive...

The only thing this old version of Mike would intimidate is a Depends diaper.

The show is definitely getting better now, especially with more of Mike's Philly cop back story.  Will be interesting to see how James McGill becomes Saul Goodman and how Mike becomes strong arm for Fring.

yeah, the shooting back in philly... that scene and the buildup to it would have been classic breaking bad material, fit right in.

the weird thing is that outside of AGE, the show is way more realistic than BB. 

I love the parts shown in the same alleys, buildings, deserts, roads we saw in breaking bad.  When Saul and the black detective were sitting on the bench talking, with the Police most wanted list behind them - i was searchig for easter eggs but didn't see any.

They gave a hint when he was running a scam in college and the guy asked his name and he said It's all goodman  Like Saul Goodman.

Basically James McGill is trying to fly straight, he realizes his shady antics is causing Chuck to stay ill.  He wants his deep voiced blonde friend to go legit with him but he'll slide back into a sleezy hole and adopt his sleezy name soon.

To 240's point, I thought the same thing when they showed the mugshots. Was trying to catch any old BB characters

I admit that I was skeptical about this, but I am totally hooked now. The characters are so perfect. And Saul was one of the best characters in TV.

theyve shown saul to be witty and brilliant and hard working.  he was a one-sided character on BB. 

same with Mike... used to just be an effcient badass on BB, all the way to the end.  Now we see what molded that, the helplessness and pain.

I'm sure it'll see a 2nd season.

It better.  I want to see the 4-5 seaons and when the timeline overlapps with BB.  I especially want to know how he found Huell.  Would suck if Huell got his stomach stapled and is thin now

Yup, they added more colors to the caracters, especially Mike. Seeing a tough guy like that getting through so much makes him much more credible.

I'm hooked.

Awesome show...and its only going to get better.....I hope they show some shows out of sequence....for instance, I'd like to see more shows devoted to brief glimpses of what life is like in the present for Johnny (saul)...like the first episode when they showed him working at the Cinnabon..maybe at the end of all of this in season 5, he may wind up dead like Walter White.....or may even hook up with Jesse in the aftermath after Walter White's death
