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

The best part is when he'll meet up with Gus at Pollos Hermanos.

i think they want this show to be able to last 3-4-5 seasons.  They'll flirt with it.  They gave us tuco early, but now they can bring him in and out as they place.  Same with Gus...

Also I bet they give us more cameos, get cute.  Have a pre-BB Jesse walk thru a scene, bump into saul and tell him to piss off or something... the Mike storyline is almost more powerful than anything with Saul.  Maybe "Saul" is just a vehicle for what is really the Mike Earmentraut show.

I will watch it tonight. Not sure how it will be but a bad lawyer seems like a fantastic idea.

Tucco seemed wayyy too forced too early.

I kinda agree with this.....but it was still good....I love how Tuco just takes absolute JOY in hurting people......he's a true psychopath....I also loved Jmmy's reaction of horror when he was watching Tuco break the bones of those two skateboarders

agreed.  I think they needed something to draw in viewers that first weekend.  Totally forced it.  But they did the same on breaking bad... started obnoxiously fast, then slowed down bigtime during season 1.  They didn't wanna get cancelled or terrible review or lose that viewing base by waiting 6 months for action.

Saul's crazy brother with his fucking emergency prep foil blanket story line is beyond boring to me, besides that everything else is rock solid

I thought it was uncessary but realize this storyline is the essential link between Jimmy McGill the legit lawyer and Saul Goodman the crook.  you can see that his brother gets more sick when he realizes Jimmy is up to no good.  it's the only thing at this point in time from keeping him from breaking bad.  yeah, I said it fuckers.

So now this show is Ally McBeal meets LA Law.  Seriously, elderly abuse class action.  Hit the fucking snooze alarm.  Just skip this shit and show us sleazy Saul

I had a client very much like this.  His “healthcare provider” convinced him that the Wifi signals from his Uverse  modem was keeping him awake.  He was my most difficult client so far.

My mother was crazy in a different way.  I know therefore what it is to have a crazy relative who doesn’t listen to you, or let you have any control.  It is incredibly stressful.

This character is to show how Saul is being stretched to the limit of what he can bear.  He wanted just to be a conventional lawyer, but circumstances are not allowing him.

So now this show is Ally McBeal meets LA Law.  Seriously, elderly abuse class action.  Hit the fucking snooze alarm.  Just skip this shit and show us sleazy Saul

Again, he wanted to be a conventional corporate “Mit Romney” lawyer, but the cards he was dealt won’t allow it.  He has to credibly move down the road to become Saul.

I love the show. Never know where each episode is going to go. The episode with Mike going back to Philly to avenge his sons death was definitely the best one.
Shades of Breaking Bad. There is definitely enough material to get 4 or 5 good seasons of the show.

I agree, it's moving to slow. I'm afraid sleazy Saul will not show up till the 2nd season.

Last episode finally showed some promise!

His brother is definitely doing a turn around.

think about the potentials now.

Mike is doing dirt now... they can invent any adventures for him.
Saul will have some legit lawyer success.
Saul's brother will recover and inevitably die at some point.
That blond chick will get fired, work with saul, have a love affair and breakup.

The myriad of bad guys from BB can come and go as needed.  HANK can show up!  fans woudl shit their pants if they crossed paths.  hank's partner will probbaly show up first, I'd guess.  Gomey.

Gus will be epic.  Seeing Polls grow from 1 store to 14, seeing him buiild his network. 

Brian Cranston is too much of an egomaniac not to do a cameo soon :)

Jesse too... his movie career sucks, get him in there, interacting with mike or something. 

Those bald twins can visit with Tuco.  the dealer tied to the pole that Walt choked out crazy 8. 

And their braintrust had years to plan how they'd do it... there are going to be lots of easter eggs, I'm hoping.

You see it coming.  Saul discovered this class action case.  Knew he could settle easily for a couple million and make 50% for himself but his brother is going to push it to a bigger case, they'll eventually win and Saul is going to get fucked in the end.

Last weeks episode was pretty weak, but it got much better this week. Mike's character is evolving independently to Jimmys and the whole electromagnetism story line with his brother is finally moving along as it was getting tiresome. They need to start introducing some bad guys soon though.

WOW...nice episode concerning brother's jealousy and betrayal......Jimmy's brother obviously hates him secretly....that's gotta really hurt
