Factoring in the brother seemingly being manipulative of Saul and Saul feeling that he owes his brother for helping him out of big trouble in the flashback and you have an interesting dynamic.

Yeah, I get that, but that just doesn't seem that interesting. So he wants to please his brother. Meh.
And that he has some kind of kooky condition. Just seems like it is just something weird for the sake of being weird. I guess I should have more faith in the writers.

The one good aspect of it is that is leads to Saul's interactions with the douchebag law partner. Those are pretty good.

Are you talking about Tuco? Tuco would eat DeSimone's sawed off ass so quickly he'd need half the Tums in ABQ to settle down his heartburn.

Actually, many are. Totally depends on whether they run a route near the delivery. I grew up with my father the publisher and printer of a newspaper in SWMO, and we mailed more than got thrown.

Weird, but not created out of whole cloth. There are entire communities in the eastern mountain ranges and rural mountain west for people claiming electromagnetism sensitivity.

yeah.. not even close... tuco is an insane mother effer.

love this series.

I didn't check entire thread..

but there is a conspiracy theory of red and blue being a significant theme of good vs evil

Better fight would be Tuco on BB/BCS versus Det. Sanchez on The Closer/Major Crimes

I've been re-watching Breaking Bad with my wife and son, who haven't seen it before, and last night we hit "Open House" in Season 4. In that episode Marie is showing up at open houses, pretending to be a different person each time, and stealing stuff. At one of the houses she lifts ... a Hummel figurine.

Perfect timing, as I had forgotten that and hadn't made the connection during Sunday night's Better Call Saul.

I have no idea if the figurine she stole was part of the old lady's collection in Saul, but I'm 100 percent sure they were different houses.

I was suprised afterwards when I saw the ep title. What a wierd thing to key on. Gotta have some significance.

Word is, it was initially titled 'Jello' but the owners of the Jello trademark were too interested in their continued ties with Bill Cosby to grant licensing.*


* - Last part about Cosby is snark, initial title info is true. Middle part about licensing is supposition on why they changed the title.

If you can bring weapons, my scratch is on BB Mike. No question. He's an assassin.
