The Minertaur Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Yeah that was a great episode. Well worth the wait. I take it it's a week until the next? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christophe Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Absolutely brilliant! I love that Lalo and Howard have been buried under the lab the whole of the BB timeline! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 They didn't cover the dead bodies with lime. Might explain why the fly was there in BB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) Think we will get a fairly decent time jump next week then? All the ends have been tied up other than where Kim is in the BB/present day timelines...so I don't see any need to hang about in the current timeframe. Onto Saul in the gaudy mansion and beyond? We still need to fit that/the FBI stuff, a possible Cranston/Paul storyline and the Gene stuff into the last 5 episodes Edited July 12, 2022 by Christophe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Fucking awesome. Again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Oh, also loved the shot of Kim approaching Gus' from above which was very reminiscent of the shot of Walter approaching to do the same thing in Season 4 of BB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Between tonight's episode and the last in the series of The Boys from Friday, I feel like anyone watching both of these shows has been seriously spoiled this week. Amazing stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Can’t ask for much better than that for a return, tremendous. I’m planning a BB rewatch after the final episode and I feel the bodies are 100% going to make every episode with the lab more vhilling, fly included. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Fabu-fucking-lous. I stand by my earlier comment. Best show on TV right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch a lot of new stuff, I'm more of a 'watch old shows again that I loved' but it has to be the best around at the surely. It's right on par with BB IMO. I could never put it on a higher pedestal, as BB is one of my 3 favourite shows of all time, but I'm happy to but it right alongside it. BCS is firmly in my top 5 now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Did Jimmy and Gus have any direct interaction in BB? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant think of a scene they're both in however Gus did refer him to 'The Lawyer' a couple of times, obviously Saul mentions Gus a lot in BB. Happy to be corrected, i'm just saying this from memory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still need to fit that/the FBI stuff, a possible Cranston/Paul storyline and the Gene stuff into the last 5 episodes I don't think we'll get the time jump in the next episode or the one after. Seems too early for me. The Kim storyline will take a while. Surely the Salamanca family (i.e. the twins) will be in town trying to figure out what's happened to Lalo as well? The Walt/Jesse storyline is only supposed to be a few scenes. Not enough to be the main focus of an episode by the sounds if it.If I had to guess I'd say only the last episode will involve Walt/Jesse and Gene's conclusion too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Vince Gilligan has said one of the hardest parts of BCS was writing the series and fleshing it out to the extent he has whilst knowing he had to keep Gus and Jimmy apart because they'd never actually met. Saul introduced Jesse and Walt to Gus via Mike by saying 'I know a guy who knows a guy' and we saw the formation of what would become that arrangement in the episode gone by when Gus showed a bit of quiet shock and admiration when Kim said that Jimmy managed to successfully talk Lalo round and get him to send Kim instead of Jimmy. Clearly, Gus is impressed by Jimmy being so persuasive as to be able to do this and that's what leads to him being Gus' lawyer via Mike. Gilligan has gone on record as saying he regrets never having Saul meet Gus because it would have made writing BCS a hell of a lot easier if they had been established as acquainted by the time Breaking Bad rolled around.

They just didn't know each other, or at least not specifically. Gus would have knew that Jimmy was connected to Mike.https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/F-tAqMT_z8Y?start=128&feature=oembedI don't think Gus' reaction to Jimmy persuading Lalo was shock and admiration. It was shock and realisation that Lalo's apparent plan to get Gus murdered could be changed on a whim by these clueless individuals. Gus knew Lalo didn't care who went to the door, meaning it was just a distraction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
