Jun 10, 2017 AMAZING scene. Michael Mando was incredible. I love this character so much cause he's so meticulous with his strategies. Like he spends all night feeling the capsules and sealing them, then practicing the swap until morning. I felt like my hands were about to be shaking worse than his during that scene. Great episode, so many highlights. - Saul making a quick 700 bucks to s--- on some Ginger c----, fire. - Kim (who is leaps and bounds a greater female lead than Skylar ever was) vs Howard in the restaurant was dope.. I feel like she's really utilized every chance she's been given to pay Howard back for the bs she went thru at HHM despite jumping thru hoops to help the firm. - When Mike asked Nacho for one thing in the last episode, I knew that it was gonna be the location of the good Samaritan's body. And that final scene is one of the many things that I love about this show, cause every weekend when the end credits appear, I actually feel like I'm buzzin'. And that's the kinda TV shows I like to watch, ones that trigger dopamine release and s--- lol.
Jun 12, 2017 I have to wait to watch tonight's episode, but I actually felt bad for Chuck when he said to the doctor "If it isn't real, then what have I done?' Granted, he was a piece of s--- to Jimmy pre-mental illness, but still.
Jun 13, 2017 Fire episode as usual. - Mike & Lydia. If you're gonna have a character in only one scene during an episode, this is how you capitalize on that scene. Lydia was unbearable by the time she entered Walt's life, but it's amazing to see how she acts when she still has some comfort to enjoy as she obviously trusts Gus completely. Love when she tells Mike it's the first time she's done this... "I don't know what you do, but Mr. Fring must obviously thing they're very good at it." - Jimmy is Saul now. He's been shedding his old skin since he made his brother look like a lunatic in court but there is no more skin to shed. He slowly but surely ostracized an old woman until her crew abandoned her all in a plan to have her settle. How raw is that? You saw all those boxes of shoes? The man was prepared! Then he injects some s--- into Bingo Balls to make them more magnetic. In another life, Jimmy could've been someone. - Kim.... Man, Kim, wtf? You're doing nothing to improve the stereotypes surrounding women's skills behind the wheel. My take on what happened: She is already burning the candle at both ends. In a previous episode, before the meeting w/ Mesa Verde, she set a timer in her car to catch some zzz's first. The time jump in that scene was identical to the one from last night. She was already exhausted, but after practicing her pitch, she gets silent.. She's wondering what Jimmy has done to be so sure that Sand Piper is about to settle. She's well aware at this point of the lengths that he'll go to in order to survive, and the mystery of his methods obviously worries her. That's when she zones out, and her Eclipse loses a shoving match with a f---ing boulder. If she would've made it past that rock, she wouldn't have survived. - Oh Nacho, you fool, did you think Hector would die the first time? No no no, poisoning old b------s takes time! I know it's not poisoning, but Hector may have been experiencing the placebo effect last night as he's oblivious to his nitro pills being swapped for duds. Even if Nacho hadn't taken them, Hector's on a path of destruction. Cursing the entire cartel when they say that he's gonna have to continue working with Gus... I did feel bad for Nacho at the end. Hopefully his father doesn't do anything stupid to make him an orphan. Hector murders people for doing good deeds so there's no telling what he does to those who defy him. - Chuck. I hated this dumb MFer until he went full lunatic in the hearing. My sympathy kicked in after that. He's obviously batshit crazy. I think it's tied to Jimmy passing the bar since everything they talk about places his first incident around the same time Jimmy became a lawyer. If so, that's very s-----y of Chuck. But to carry on with a fake disease for all those years? d--- bro. Anyway, Howard is smart to attempt the ultimatum approach - either take this other job where you're not f---in' our firm up or we'll push you out. Too bad his adversary just so happens to be the best attorney on his team. Plus Chuck has electricity now, Howard, you dapper b----. Chuck could pop a few tylenols and hop online if need be and destroy you via technology in the mid-2000's. Next episode is titled "Lantern" and all I can think of is that picture of the lantern on top of the newspaper. I'm thinkin' Chuck's gonna end up burning down his crib. Who knows...
Jun 14, 2017 Kinda rooting for Chuck now. IDK how Gilligan did it, but he's managed to get me to like Chuck. I had a weird satisfaction when he said "Imagine being my enemy" to Howard. And I don't even dislike Howard, but that was boss. I used to be so indifferent about Nacho, but he's quickly became one of my favorite characters from both shows. I felt awful for him when he talked to his dad. Saul is ruthless, god d---.
Jun 18, 2017 I felt so terrible for that old lady. "Rose??!?" Jimmy is now Saul and he's ruthless. Incredible season.
Jun 20, 2017 A little underwhelmed with the finale. Could've sworn Dean Norris was going to make an appearance.
