Better Call Saul...

[Strenuus]

The last Episode was one of the best episodes of any show I've ever watched. If you're ever watched Breaking Bad, it's a must watch. You get to learn about Mike, lets just say that.

Better Call Saul is turning into a damn good series... it started off slow, but now it's really picked up, and is really creating it's own entity separate from Breaking Bad, while still honoring the show at times. It's beautiful.

Better Call Saul is awesome! Really fun to watch while that Battle Creek show is pure crap. Both are Vince Gilligan shows.

I really didn't think Johnathon Banks had that great of a range as an actor, or maybe his character was just dull and pointed. (Oxymoron, I understand) but this last episode changed that completely. So powerful.

He was great in this cop show called Wiseguy. Late 80s, early 90s show that was actually pretty good. It had this multi-episode story arc where the bad guy was Kevin Spacey. I had never heard of Spacey before but he just jumped off the screen, you could tell he was going places in acting.

I watched that last episode and thought that this was a guy gunning for an Emmy. Very great.

I give the show a B, maybe a B+. Very tough to follow Breaking Bad, but they are doing a good job of creating a different story. I could do without Michael McKean's electromagnetic storyline though. Doesn't resonate for me.

You can watch Wiseguy on Hulu for free - http://www.hulu.com/wiseguy

Also Banks was a bad guy in Beverly Hills Cop.

yeah. that story is boring with me... they're trying, but i think they'll fade that out... hopefully.

I'm going to have to catch this on Netflix.

Johnathon Banks was outstanding. His delivery and voice made that performance memorable.

Just watched it, fabulous episode.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

By the way, after the first episode I give it a solid A. The first episode was slow, Breaking Bad had me hooked. That doesn't mean the show should be judged against one of the best shows ever, so still an A.

Good to know. I tried to watch the first episode, but gave up. I'll have to give it another chance.

Yeah, Breaking Bad had me totally hooked from the opening scene.

The episode 3 and on are absolutely genius. The season finally was a little slow, but there was a method to that madness imo

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Things are looking to get crazy next season. I hope so.

 

[Stevenson]

Anyone else underwhelmed by Season 1? I really thought the last episode would have more, actually I thought the whole series would have more, but it didn't. Bob Odenkirk is what makes it watchable.

B-

Now that the first season is over I have started watching this (so I can binge watch in succession). I am finished with episode 5 now. I like it. It isn't as good as Breaking Bad (what is?) but it is worth watching imo.

 

[THE HCP]

Just finished the season finale. Would have loved more , but I think they wanted to take it slow and set the foundation. Can't wait for season 2.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Bump.... all you guys who thought this show was slow in the beginning were right. However, the wife and I just finished season 3 and it was AWESOME.

This show is amazing. The electromagnetic crap storyline is fabulous after it gets going.

I liked the show but im too poor for cable now

Season 2 is on Netflix, season three isn't yet. We bought it on Amazon for about 20 bucks. Well worth it.

I’m loving it! Thought I wouldn’t like it because I’d be comparing it to BB...... but it is it’s own greatness if ya ask me.

I see you ending up managing a Cinnabon at the mall.

His wife forbid him from going to Cinnabon and now they're closing all over the country.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

New season starts tonight!

Having the scenes of Saul in the future (or after what happened in BB, you know what I mean) was a brilliant touch to me. It made the show feel like less of a prequel because you also get a glimpse of what happened to him. Plus it would make an easy transition from a prequel to a sequel show if they want to continue the BB storyline.
