It's on AMC in the US. People are spoilt now by by watching a whole season/series in a few days to think it's the norm, back in my day we would cram around a black and white telly whilst playing with the bunny ears to get a decent reception once a week and we couldn't even pause it for a toliet break!!!

It's really finding its groove.

I know I should have known better but I fell for the billboard thing until the slapshake

Ah right. Makes sense. I just thought that it was a Netfix thing as it has been advertised as a Netflix original series which it obviously is not............

really enjoyed his brothers little bit, seeing through the eyes of his mental illness. shaping up very well this show!

that bit was great and even made me laugh when it cut to the neighbour watching him.

When we were in his head i could feel his pain and anxiety then it cut to his neighbour and it seemed so silly. It made me think of how we can't know what somebody is going through unless we have experienced it ourselves.

yeah it was a great way of portraying it i thought - so much going on in his head, but so little going on in reality

Watched the latest one last night, it's getting better every week!

Loved the whole con-man side of things that was shown this episode, and as said previously the bit with his brother going outside was a great little moment, cutting to the neighbour watching was hilarious.

[WS_Jack_III]

That was my least favourite so far but it was still decent and the last quarter shows more of one of my favourite characters from the Br Ba universe and promises more to come.

[FloorFiller]

yeah it was probably my least favourite as well (i think the lack of a Saul's lawyering / scamming made it a bit less exciting) but was still good

[WS_Jack_III]

How many more in this run?

[FloorFiller]

5 more left!

[Spindles]

I still really enjoyed it, despite it being slower. The bit where the doc exposed his brother's illness as being mental, rather than physical was very well played out, I thought.

Am I the only person who didn't realise that Saul Goodman was a pun until last week?

Yeah I had not noticed it either until pointed out last week.

This week was a lot slower and the last 10 mins or so felt like a director indulging. Its the sort of episode that one most likely will never refer to when discussing the series when over.

[MrZigster]

I guess I must be alone in loving the latest episode then.

I think it's really going to warm up now.

I've only just got it!

[WS_Jack_III]

My Bro didn't realise it was a pun untill last week. I thought it was obvious.

[viberunner]

I recognised the nurse... she was a nurse in Breaking Bad too!

Doesn't he explain it in Breaking Bad the first time they meet him

[WS_Jack_III]

He mentions it sounding Jewish but I don't think he explains it is a play on S'all good man!

[viberunner]

Best episode of the season thus far.

[FloorFiller]

yep that episode was incredible

[WS_Jack_III]

Just watched it, excellent episode and nice to get the back story on Mike.

Some of those beautiful transitions were in this episode too. The merging of two scenes was always something i loved in Breaking Bad.

Been off the forum for a while, but I'm loving Better Call Saul more and more each episode. The Mike centered episode was the best so far, can't wait to get home and watch today's.

[FloorFiller]

another great episode today! obviously not up to the standard of last weeks (gonna be hard to beat) but really good non the less. loved the bit at end with Mike (although the UV light bit was incredibly hard to watch - really hurt my eyes)
