I enjoyed the episode, although I wish the thing was a little faster paced.

Wow. Guess I should have read the few posts before mine a little better. My bad.

It's been too long since I've seen. Totally forgot that was the KEN WINS guy while watching it. Pretty good episode to setup the new season. Next week's episode looks pretty damn interesting.

If you're talking about the preview at the end of the episode, they announced it as "this season on BCS" as opposed to "next week on BCS"

yea it actually concerns me a bit that they went that route. When I see that, I think one of two things...either its a new show and they're trying to get their hooks into an audience or, alternatively, there just isn't much happening next week so they need to add stuff from future episodes to make the preview more enticing. I don't think the former applies since its an established show which worries me a bit.

Every show does the "This season on..." promo after the season premiere.

I don't agree with that, but I'll have to pay closer attention. TWD didn't do it.

The scene at the beginning where he first met with the Santa Fe guys was maddening. His briefcase switched hands 5 times without you ever see him switch. Every time they switched camera angles, it was in the other hand. Crazy magic.

Love Cruise definitely went with the "this season on LC" which should've been a big red flag for all 12 of the viewers.

I just watched season one. Last night. Like I just finished it. 10 episodes, 540 minutes, two piss breaks. It was okay. Good to see the characters again, needed to see more Perkins waitress nudity.

watched the season 2 premiere last night. i still think the back and forth decision making from jimmy was contrived, but i liked the direction gilligan eventually took him to. he's going to try everything to fuck shit up, and that plays to his insecurity about his brother and his immaturity as a person.

i really liked the last scene of him flicking the switch that says "always leave on"--and nothing seems to happen. but who knows...
great symbolism.

This is a really good show. Jimmy McGill may be my new favorite character.

Yes it is. Odenkirk is just great. He's almost reached like a Larry David level where whatever he says is just funny because he said it.


And man FUCK his brother. McKean playing a good villian. Bear witness...fuck you


Howard is my dude. (hi cut arms on his suits bitches)

The interrogation scene was great. It was so well-written and acted.

You could just see Jimmy coming into form, albeit a less smooth version. It was great.

It was perfect. He got the drug dealing geek out of there just in time. For a story so unbelievable, he met it believable...if that makes any sense.

This show is great. That interrogation scene was awesome. I didn't really like the nerdy guy at first, but I've done a full 180 on that. That guy is fuckin hilarious.

Nice pickup on "Playuh":

I dont' think we've seen the last of Playuh. His legal name is Daniel Wormald. At the precinct, Jimmy refers to him as "Dan."

As most Breaking Bad fans can probably recall, when Saul is showing Walt around for suggestions on how to launder his money, Saul prefers the laser tag place, because it's "foolproof." It comes complete with Danny, who "will play ball and make sure everything goes smoothly."

Play ball? Perhaps Pryce gets a little street smarter after his first foray into slinging narcotics (hey, even the great Heisenberg was a little green when he started slinging crystal). Maybe Playuh gets back in the game and eventually needs to start laundering his income. Laser tag is nerdy enough to be in Pryce's wheelhouse (Daniel Wormald is an IT guy, to boot).

In an interview with TV Guide, the actor who plays Playuh, when asked if we'll see his character again, said, "It's one of those things I would hate to speculate on, because our fans are so savvy that they may be able to figure it out, and then I would be spoiling something for them. So you'll just have to wait and see."

Every business needs a Danny, even if he is a crybaby Cobb Squatter.

Wow......good catch there P Ghost!! I'm looking forward to how that plays out. 8)

Agreed, another fantastic episode.


Previews for next week show an appearance from another minor Breaking Bad recurring character.

I am really hoping for a super intensive "Mike Episode" this coming Monday. You have to think at some point that Gus makes an appearance or becomes part of the story.
