How big of a firm is Schweigert? I had the impression it was a medium practice, smaller than HHM? Am I misremembering?

Ad campaigns always get signed up by senior management law firms or not. It's just they way it goes. I've seen $100,000 spent only to have it unapproved by the top a CEO of a firm.
You run an ad campaign without the proper sign-offs, you're toast. Even an ad firm or design studio gets a signature before running with an ad.

Jimmy said they were huge.

I was thinking a Shook Hardy type; 100+ attorney firm.

I disagree.

D&M were totally in bounds being pissed off there.

It doesn't take a firm long to get that 'mid-day advertising ambulance chasers' tag real quickly. D&M may have some massive thriving anti-trust practice or IP law or something equally stuffy where running a mid-day add of a senior citizen acting confused is completely opposite of the culture they've developed and the reputation they've built.

Even the add they did run was extremely dry; again - perhaps a corporate culture thing they've sought to cultivate.

Jimmy was out of bounds there.

:spock: keep your horrible takes in DC...thanks!

this is pretty cool. nice read. nice video in which Gilligan says "The more we learn about Jimmy the more we like him...and the more we dread him eventually turning into Saul Goodman."

There aren’t many better mash-ups between sports and television than this.

On “Better Call Saul,” the prequel to the best TV drama of all-time, “Breaking Bad,” there is a character named Kim Wexler. She is friends (with benefits, it seems) with Saul Goodman (aka Jimmy McGill).

In season two of “Better Call Saul,” Wexler was spotted in a Royals T-shirt and it didn’t go unnoticed on social media.

The show is set in 2002 (when the Royals went 62-100 and Neifi Perez was the starting shortstop), so this isn’t a matter of the producers jumping on the bandwagon. Besides, the series takes place in Albuquerque, N.M.

We reached out to a source with AMC, which broadcasts the show, and were told that the T-shirt was was “a choice made with thought and intention.”

That was as much as they would give us, because they don’t want to divulge too much.

If you watched “Breaking Bad,” then you know that every detail of the show is well thought out.

So, let’s hear it. Anyone got a theory on why Kim Wexler is wearing that shirt? Here’s one thought: Since we know Saul ends up in Omaha, maybe she’s from Nebraska and is a Royals fan. Perhaps she runs into him at that Cinnabon at some point in the future.

Or maybe she has a crush on Mike Sweeney — he hit .340 in 2002.

Perhaps she simply loves losers (at the time).

Nice

It's to show how loyal she is.


She will stick with a loser even if it's a detriment.


She won't leave HHM simply because she is loyal to a fault.

We all know how loyal she will be to Jimmy.

Yeah, I rewatched the episode and have a different perspective now. I was totally wrong. I work in Marketing so I should have known better. My original point was that Jimmy wasn't trying to be slippery and I believe that. I think he was legitimately trying to follow the rules and don't think he realized he was being slippery in this case.

Hold on a minute! I watch "Suits"!

You mean every lawyer doesn't have a life just like Harvey Specter's?

I despise Mikes daughter in law. Shes sooo willing to take hand outs, for no real good reason. She has one kid, a job, and lives in a super affordable part of the country. Booofrickinwho

Half-measures haunting him. It is not for her at all either. He knows what a (insert meanie name here) she is.
