Anyone else spend this last episode rooting for Lalo and Howard?
These last couple have Kim inching in the direction of Wendy Byrde. |

Definitely with Howard. Really sick of them to make us feel even worst for him as he reveals his marriage issues on top of everything else then to just end it a moment later. I was also really wanting Saul and Kim’s explanation of why all this being done to him. |

I am dreading the end of this show.
It's the only show I look forward to during the week. Please tell me Vince Gilligan has another one lined up. |

I wasn’t a fan of the long play of the Howard story line but I should never second guess Vince Gilligan. Worth it for the payoff. Is there a death in either show as unfair as Howard’s? The German guy was tragic but he brought some of it on himself. Howard didn’t deserve any of it and kudos to the show to keep him pretty pure throughout.

I actually like Howard. Initially you think he's this uptight ahole but hes really a pretty good guy. OCD, thorough and very smart. Seems to have a good moral compass. My favorite character other than Nacho and old Kim.

We need more of the American Greed documentary. Still just the one episode so far that was posted here.

I thought it was very necessary as it was the straw that broke the camels back that made Jesse turn on Walt. I forgot about Adrianna… that’s the best example of an innocent victim seeing that the kid wasn’t a main character. Plenty of innocent side characters have been unfairly steamrolled in both universes. Gomez kind of fits into that too. But what makes Howard particularly interesting is that it was really Jimmy and kins direct actions leading to his death. You can’t fault Jesse for Adrianna dying. Mike killed Werner because he had to even though he didn’t want to. Jimmy has to wear this Howard death and my sense is it is going to wear on him big time.

You know, we are damned lucky to live in the era of good television. To think we could have grown up on Bewitched and Dragnet. |

Oh, I had forgotten Andrea's [and that that was even her name] death at the front door, probably I had subconsciously buried that scene. That was rough, but Adriana's was a slow burn. The clip doesn't do it justice, or maybe I've distorted it in my memory, but I thought they were in that car for a while longer. It was played out the inverse of the kid on the bike, but left the same feeling of utter disgust and puzzlement as to why a viewer even puts themselves through watching stuff like this.

They did it to Howard because he was the lead attorney on the sandpiper case. They did everything just to get it closed quicker so Saul could get his money quicker.
