Now I just need to remember how the last season went. These long breaks make things really tough. 

Jimmy is suspended as a lawyer for a year, embarrassed his brother at the hearing, HHM tries to buy him out and force him into retirement, kim gets into a car accident, Jimmy's brother burns down his house while inside of it.

The best show on right now. Even if you're not a BB fan. The Chuck courtroom episode was amazing. I heard it was renewed for a 5th season. I'd like more of the current day Gene scenes. Whatever happens I'm sure it'll be fantastic.

Oh yes right!  I now remember the scene where the girlfriend gets in the car crash.  They showed 10,000 pages of legal work all over the desert floor. 

 

And now I also remember the bit about lighting his bro's house on fire!  Lots of good stuff going on.

 

And where this show really shines is the Mike Ehrmantraut character and anything involving him on screen.  As I recall things were getting juicy with his little world too.

 

Once you get into the first episode (of the new season) it all starts coming back.

 

 

 

 

PS:  Watch the little "Sneak peek" I posted above.  That short little scene is absolutely suspenseful and riveting and will get the juices flowing for the new season.  I normally don't like watching sneak peeks or knowing what's coming, but it's worth making an exception in this case.

I forgot about Mike, he cuts a deal with the owner of the chicken restaurant

 

I watched the trailer for the season which pretty much confirms chuck died and Jimmy gets dirtier.

 

The video you posted was good, I'm guessing it's the future seen that will be shown before this season like they always do. Last season started with him at cinnabon working, then watching the kid get arrested for shoplifting and telling him to get a lawyer. Then when he gets back to work he collapses

I saw the very end. I thought it started at 10!  Oops

 

Wait, it airs earlier than 10 now?  I didn't bother to watch last night because anything starting 10 or later is DVR territory for me.

That was an odd ending. Jimmy the douche.

I interpreted it as him not rejecting personal responsibility for his brother's death.  Also, the start of the transition from Jimmy to Saul.

Exactly. He appeared to be grieving but he actually was worried he'd be blamed for Chuck's death. When Howard said he felt responsible over the malpractice insurance issue, Jimmy was happy to let him "bear that cross."

 

Of course Howard doesn't know Jimmy tipping off the insurance company about Chuck's condition is why that issue came to a head.

There's a rocky past relationship between Jimmy and Howard too and that may have played a role.  Howard's role going forward will be interesting given that's the first time he's shown any real pain/vulnerability.

Just finished watching episode 1.  Great episode, even if it moved kind of slowly.

 

Loved the "Gene in Omaha" black and white stuff at the beginning.  Absolutely riveting stuff...

 

And the last scene...Jimmy realizes his performance at the insurance agency played a major role in his brother's death, and he liked it.  Check out that look on Kim's face!  She seemed shocked at Jimmy's reaction; I am wondering if that relationship is about to end.

 

The Gus/Nacho stuff was a little slow, but it's all foundation work for stuff upcoming this season.  The Mike sequence at the warehouse was all really well done; he's my favorite character in the show. 

 

Loved the Bruce Lee/Ali debate going on in the lunch room! 

 

Can't wait to see more.

I loved Mike's day at the office :lol:

 

Only Mike would have to justify getting paid by actually working for it. He's the conscience of the show. 

 

 

So, hes in Omaha. The cab driver has a Albequerque Isotopes thing hanging from the rearview, so they both are from Albequerque.

 

Think he recognized Saul? Remember Saul's face was all over billboards and commercials during Breaking Bad. 

 

And depending on why Saul became Gene, the guy may have been sitting there calling the cops.

Saw the  teaser last week and put a reminder in my phone. Looking for something good to watch after the Westworld disappointment. 

Thank you.

 

Westworld season 2 was Ballzagna.

This entire series is slow. I do love the show, but every season has been a bit slow. I'm actually surprised that we're on the 4th season. I don't think any other show that told a story this slowly would ever last. Breaking bad only went 5 and a half seasons and that show was non stop drama.

Many things to like about her. The Aussie accent might be the deal sealer though!

But man, I mean depending on your perspective, she gets herself in trouble on the party nights off the boat. For management, she really should watch the alcohol-related drama! Now if you are the benefactor of her reduced power of judgment, that's a whole different story. ?

Both shows are perfect for binge watching.  I never watched Breaking Bad until it was already off the air because I didn't have cable when it started.  I flew through all of it and I bet it would have been the same with this show.  The wife loved Breaking Bad but hasn't watched any of this one so far.  I think that's a cheap excuse for me to go back and start the whole thing all over again.  It'll be worth it just to see the episode that gave Mike's back story.

Mike is definitely my favorite character.  I know it's all writing but dude is as clever as they come.   The warehouse thing was awesome.    

 

 

 

I kind-of wished they'd snuck a Beverly Hills Cop reference in there.  

 

Kim going off on Howard...that's Rhea Seehorn's Emmy nomination right there.
