Like it so far too, but would we feel the same way if we hadn't seen BB?
Is this really a quality stand alone series so far just on its own merits?
Curious to see what someone who hasn't seen BB feels about this show.
- characters have already been developed... we're just watching a backstory so I'd think the show would work just fine but it would...PonyBoy
- would require a lot more filler to develop each characterPonyBoy
- I thought BB was good but never understood people going crazy over it. I am really liking this and have shown it to my wife who hasn't seen BB. She agrees that's it a quality show. So there's a view from a 'hater' and a newbie.ORAZAL

- good point, ORA... my GF never watched BB and she's really enjoying BCSPonyBoy
- My dad hadn't seen BB and loves Saul, so much that he is now binge watching BB.eighteen

A bit cheesy to bring in Tuco so soon.
- ii thought it was awesome! lol
what a luck he has.pango - if by cheesy you mean the most amazing thing that happened in the show, then, sure...Miguex
- I agree. He's a fucking cartoon character, and an unnecessary inclusion.e-wo
- how do you know how important will he be on the show if they only showed 2 episodes so far?Miguex
- ii thought it was awesome! lol

I'm assuming i'm alone in thinking it was good, but a bit slow with filler?
I mean, its good but I wouldn't say amazing....not yet.
- breaking bad was slow with filler at timesdrgs
- Most times the filler becomes important way down the line. Patience. These writers know what they're doing.monospaced
- except for that fly episode in breaking bad...Milan
- nah, that scene made Jesse understand how perfect he had to be... to understand Walt's obsession and act on itmonospaced
- it was totally relevant, and good tv to bootmonospaced

I ordered Pollos Hermanos last night, they have this Uber Eats "virtual restaurant" where you can get a few options.
Chicken was good, fries meeeeh, probably won't order again but it was kinda cool. I guess they relly on different restaurants to make the orders so depends where you are you might get a different experience.

Such a good episode! The tension on the couch!
I'm really curious what the next season will cover. Obviously they will catch up to breaking bad, but will they give more context to the events of BB? While they spend more time post BB?
While I'm sad that its ending, I'm also happy they they are only telling the story they have, not padding it out.

No one is happy, no one has a personal life, everyone works 24/7.

Never be a or work for lawyers.
- I did for 11 years. Glad I'm out of that industry, but they're not all bad people. Some of the best people I've worked with honestly.mg33
- I worked with attorneys - in legal marketing and as a consultant to law firms. The work hours for them are brutal. No thanks.mg33
- I was gonna go to law school but became a designer instead. True story.monospaced

His tin foil hat wearing brother is so pointless. I hope they tie in walter white and heisenberg soon.
- Has to be after gus hires mike.pango
- i don't think you'll see them in the series. i think it will end before it gets to that point.sarahfailin
- Ya maybe the last episode of the this series.pango

Anyone catch that the Wall Street dude they fucked with was the same douchebag Walter White fucks with in a gas station, when he puts a wet squeegee on his car battery and blows up his car?
- yup caught thatRamanisky2
- That was Ted. Oh sweet Ted. Pay for that tequila.stoplying

** spoilers **
the ending started slow and i wondered if the opening cinnabon scene would be revisited - so that'll come at the end of the series, I suppose - but i did appreciate what was some very nice character exploration and development for jimmy.him finding himself between NM and chicago and back. the faded novelty of his slipping jimmy hijinx, his friend's passing, his undying care for his brother and new opportunities not really fitting the mold of who he realizes he really is... very well written season finale if you ask me.. and strong series considering there are really just two main characters compared to BB
** spoilers **- The Cinnabon store is present day. It's waaay after Breaking Bad. He relocated to Omaha or something.Luda
- Yes, he go that. And he was wondering if it would be revisited.ORAZAL
- I assumed it was just to show where he is NOW - a flash forward - still watching his back. Think the whole BCS series will be in New Mexico/Chicago.Luda

ended well, but with him being so close to what he worked all season so diligently for, it's slightly odd that would be the moment he chooses to 'break bad' (as it were).
either way, fantastic first season.
- Well he didn't expect his brother to hate him so much and he doesn't have much of a life or office.omahadesigns

His brother is such a dick
- For real! It's his brother's fault if/when he backslides again...his brother gave him the push.MondoMorphic
- Too much egopango
