that's basically how Mad Men episode summaries used to read. "Don takes a trip. Roger has a problem at the office."

I thought this was a great episode.

I keep trying to predict developments as if I were still watching Breaking Bad. I was very good at forecasting the long game with BB, not so much with BCS.

I thought the first episode was pretty good. I'm going to give it eight out of ten
― paolo, Monday, 9 February 2015 19:17 (1 year ago) Permalink
I'm going to say that this is a nine out of ten show. Not quite as good as the holy trinity of The Wire, Breaking Bad and The Sopranos but not far off

Lols weren't from the prediction but the electricity joke xps

Be interesting to see what Chuck does with that tape, since we know Jimmy doesn't get disbarred/convicted
Do we know he doesn't get disbarred?
In BB, he's practising as Saul Goodman so perhaps this is the start of his journey down that road.

Spoiler depending on how sensitive you are...........Did anyone else see the christiantimes.com article naming 3 BB regs appearing in S3??
― Quarter measures (sunny successor), Thursday, 7 July 2016 10:28 (seven years ago) link
No, and no thank you! One is fairly obvious. If you follow the threads on the obvious one, I can think of maybe one or two regular supporting characters that would make sense. I'm certain that Flynn is one of the three, though.

Clearly Holly.
― chap, Thursday, 7 July 2016 13:23 (seven years ago) link
if we're throwing out guesses the most obvious one is Gus, other two could be just about anybody at this point
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 July 2016 15:53 (seven years ago) link
lol "Flynn" I forgot about that
― O, Barack: flaws (wins), Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:04 (seven years ago) link
The beloved fan favorite Tyrus will return, obvs, if Gilligan & Co. have any sense.
It seems at least possible that Hank will show up eventually. That's probably the most likely path to a possible Walt cameo, however inconsequential and unconnected to the larger narrative of the show it would be.
― There must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls (Old Lunch), Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:13 (seven years ago) link
Ugh I don't want that
I'm thinking ppl related to gus's operation plus maybe saul's receptionist and huell
― O, Barack: flaws (wins), Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:18 (seven years ago) link
I don't want that, either, but I'm accepting that it'll probably happen. I just hope it happens in a way that makes sense and compromises the integrity of the narrative as little as possible. These guys and gals can handle it.
― There must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls (Old Lunch), Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:19 (seven years ago) link
Yeah I'm crossing my fingers for Huell.
― chap, Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:19 (seven years ago) link
I don't really see any reason for Walt to show up in this but who knows
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:22 (seven years ago) link
at this point I def trust the showrunners not to do some clumsy shoehorning fan service bullshit tho
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:23 (seven years ago) link
They've at least hinted at possible cameos from Walt and Jesse. I'm sure that, when and if it happens, it won't be much more than a quick winking nod. Like in half focus walking through the background at the grocery store or something.
― There must be some magic clue inside these gentle walls (Old Lunch), Thursday, 7 July 2016 16:26 (seven years ago) link
Hank is a definite possibility. Maybe Gale, too. He was involved with Gus before the events of BB, no?
― JRN, Thursday, 7 July 2016 17:03 (seven years ago) link
I'm certain that Flynn is one of the three, though.

can't tell if serious
― k3vin k., Thursday, 7 July 2016 17:08 (seven years ago) link
such a useless character
it's pretty amazing how much better the characters are in BCS than BB btw, gus notwithstanding
Maybe Gale, too. He was involved with Gus before the events of BB, no?
my memory is that Gale is Gus's original cook so yeah I thought he might be a possibility too
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 July 2016 17:11 (seven years ago) link
xpost I'm totally serious. We never got to see the oft-alluded to story of Flynn's summer job as an intern in Saul's office.
― some anal dread (Old Lunch), Thursday, 7 July 2016 17:12 (seven years ago) link
Or the time that Flynn accidentally bumped into Tuco at the mall.

Just like King of Comedy is better than Taxi Driver, but it's the shocking & violent psycho drama more people praise rather than the more subtle and dry follow-up.
