Sooooooooooooo, is Chuck officially now more hateable than Skyler?
Damn, he got Jimmy good though.
Nah, Skyler still takes the cake in my book. The only one worse than her was, Laurie from TWD!!!! lol lol
You know, that's the one thing that takes away from the show a little bit. The fact that we know, Jimmy and Mike and other characters are going to move forward to the BB timeline. Don't get me wrong I still enjoy very much seeing how they got there, but it does eliminate some suspense.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
I totally agree. We all know the outcome. No matter how good this show is... that takes away from it all for me. Prequels always do

To me, that's what makes the show great. It's fascinating to see how Jimmy turned into Saul. As a lawyer, he always moved to the beat of his own drum, but he was still a pretty good guy. As Saul, his morals completely went out the window. Watching how he got to that point has been great.
We are supposed to assume that the black and white scenes that have opened every season is supposed to be Saul/Jimmy after the events of Breaking Bad where he got the hell out of dodge.

SS, I didn't mean to take away from the show at all. I agree. It's really cool to see how some of the characters got there. It does take away a little suspense, but I am totally into the journey.

Better Call Saul begins with a present-day shot of Saul working in an Omaha Cinnabon, where he has ended up after fleeing Albuquerque and changing his identity in the penultimate episode of Breaking Bad. At home in his apartment, he dejectedly watches a VHS tape of his glory days — back when he had boasted gaudy commercials and criminal enterprises.
You opened with the bleak, depressing Cinnabon scene. Is there more of that to explore in the post-Breaking Bad Saul?
Gilligan: It does indeed give us the indication that there is more to explore about the present. That sequence in Omaha — him working at the Cinnabon, with his new name, Gene — that's pretty interesting stuff. I'd like to see more of it. We may well indeed, and I'm not going to say when.

Yes, the b&w scenes are definitely in the future.
Last week's scene with Saul inside LPH was a masterclass in quiet menace. Gus did nothing else but sweep the restaurant and help Jimmy find his watch, but you could feel the threatening vibrations throughout those short, tense minutes.
What a show.
Is it just me or are these extended "bullshit" scenes like, Wexler getting ready for work and the initial sneaker scene and so forth getting tedious?

I'm not sure I'd call it bullshit. What exactly makes it bullshit?
Personally, one of my favorite parts of the show is the editing and cinematography. I'm not sure a 15 second scene is really going to make or break anything either. A scene like that is mainly utilized to bridge one scene to another, or introduce a scene after coming back from commercial.

I enjoy them because they're a personal stamp. Gilligan has a deep respect, almost a fascination with processes and how things work. Mike taking the car apart, Saul painstakingly forging the fake address on the court documents; these have been some of my favorite bits of the entire show.
He did the same thing with BB and the steps necessary to make top tier crystal meth.
