DIRTY DOWNLOADERS I was watching on Netflix but because I 'acquired' Season 2 of BCS and never watched it on Netflix, it still thought I needed to watch Season 2 and started at S02E01. By the time I'd got it to manually start S03E01, the recap thingy was no longer there so I went in cold. (Incidentally BCS is the reason I resubbed to Netflix as I felt guilty for downloading it when it's so damn good and it's a Netflix production. I often go weeks without watching a single thing on Netflix but maintain my subscription as I think the content is worth it when I do watch.) |

Netflix recaps are available at any time by selecting Seasons, then Trailers And More. |

Also, Better Call Saul isn't a Netflix production. It's made by AMC and Sony, the same as made Breaking Bad. Netflix bought the UK streaming rights, is all. |

I agree with Hearty: read a summary. I didn't take heed and totally forgot exactly who Mike was going to pop. Overall it was great. I forgot how much I hate Chuck; the actor is doing a tremendous job of making me hate him. More of this type of thing please. It was interesting also that some slow lingering shots can really add to the atmosphere without feeling like a vain attempt to be all kooky and arthouse and shit. I'm looking at you Neon demon. |

S03E02 was superb. I realise this sounds like a back-handed compliment but it's almost daringly slow sometimes, totally sucks you into the characters and the situation, and then time fucking bends and the end credits roll and you're like, 'Eh, not already, I NEED MORE BETTER CALL SAUL DAMMIT'. Lovely opening sequence with Mike too, not a single word spoken for the first ten minutes or so? ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! |

markg wrote: It was another good episode but: ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! Yes I wondered that myself. Everything in the programme is so deliberate so there must be a reason for it but considering Jimmy's background as a hustler/con artist sort of chap, that kind of thing really shouldn't faze him at all. |

He bought an identical tracker and replaced the one on his car for that one. Then he took their tracker and connected it to a radio to run the battery down so they would come out to swap it out, only instead of taking their dead one they were taking his. |

Wot Z said. Was totally absorbed and before I knew it I was looking down the barrel of a 7-day wait for the next ep. So afterwards I watched Catastrophe. Which continues to be pretty great and made me realise Mark Bonnar's character is due a Better Call Saul-style spin-off himself. |

Goodness me S03E05, 'Chicanery', was a stunningly, thrillingly superb episode. Gah, I have no words, amazingly accomplished stuff, it's actually as good as Breaking Bad, and that's really, really saying something. |

I forgot it was on; saw your post and dived onto the downloadatron. You aren't wrong. What lovely stuff. I hate Chuck. The TV made me hate Chuck. I hate Chuck because Chuck is Chuck. There's no actor, just Chuck. And I hate him. |

Post subject: | Re: Better Call Saul |
Episode 6 was necessarily a bit of a step down from Episode 5 in terms of intensity, but nonetheless a very engrossing 45 minutes of telly. ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! Good review here: http://www.denofgeek.com/uk/tv/better-c ... -off-brand Quote: As Better Call Saul enters the home stretch of this season and the Breaking Bad references become more and more prevalent it’s becoming clear that the end of this show (and the beginning of the previous one) is slowly coming into sight. The pieces are in place that will create the world Walter White will come to dominate. Now the biggest question is what will happen to the characters we see no sign of when Walt walks into Saul’s office for the first time.

I love the show, but when it leans hard into being a breaking bad sequel is the weakest part. |

Yeah, but it's brilliant at being a prequel. |

Post subject: | Re: Better Call Saul |
So that's Season Three drawn to a close and it was, of course, most excellent. We've still got a way to go between the world of BCS and BB though, I just hope everyone in the cast lives long enough for it to happen, and IMO they need to start tying up some loose ends pretty sharpish and leading us on into the BB world. (I've already decided I'll rewatch all of BB once BSC finishes.) Whilst it'd be nice to have two more seasons, my personal feeling is they should try and get it all done in Season Four. (Which AMC haven't even renewed it for yet......) ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! |
