Nice trailer for S4 there, really looking forward to it! :toot:

That said I am slightly sad that things seem to be going much more BB on us, I know that it's the destination we were always heading toward and we had to get there eventually but it was nice that BCS was its own thing with a different style and it will be a shame to see that go!

S4E1

Good episode. Gene getting his longest segment yet. I was tense with him when he was giving out his drivers license and SSN. Hopefully more Gene segments this season. And my Jimmy was a dick at the end with Howard, particularly as the insurance thing was his fault in the first place. Getting closer to Saul..

And also I watched it live on AMC, but damn those commercials. Think it may be better just to wait for it to be on Netflix

Always forget that this is a drip-feeder and not a binge watch scenario. Tempted to wait a few weeks before starting so I've got a bit of a backlog if I want to watch more than one at a time...

Is there a recap for this at the start? I can't remember a whole lot off the top of my head.

I watched the last episode of the previous season last night, leads into this nicely. Loved the entire episode.

Great episode

Mike :lol: Just mooching about with that guy's ID tag on display with no strawberry floats given :lol:

Oh and that end scene, very clever how the whole episode seems like Jimmy is upset, but all he really cares about is being rumbled for the insurance tip off, so as soon as Howard takes the blame by saying it was his firing of him thsst pushed him over the edge, Jimmy practically skips around the room. What a banana split.

Had no idea this was back till getting an email from Netflix to remind me. :fp:

Mike's savage analysis / conclusion of the building security was great. That's one well earned payday for a "Security Consultant".

So good to have this show back. :wub:

Saul was a complete banana split in that episode. There's no way to justify that. :lol:

I wonder who would win in a fight?

Ali or Lee?

I personally think Ali would win, he has the weight advantage.

That end scene...I think that's the first out and out terrible thing we've seen Jimmy do..

Yeah Jimmy has done plenty of terrible gooseberry fool before that!

Just caught up on 4x01 now, great stuff as always from these guys. The look of the show is consistently fantastic, they clearly put a lot of effort into how everything is put together. There's a shot of Patrick Fabian as Hamlin near the end that is just so perfectly lit. :wub:

I was trying to rewatch the first 3 seasons before this came out but only managed to get through S1 in time, it's fascinating to see how beautifully the show has evolved over the years. I forgot how deliberately subtle the whole drugs/cartel side of things was initially, before slowly seeping more and more into Jimmy and Mike's lives.

Getting worried for Nacho now though, the writing is properly on the wall for him now...

Holy gooseberry fool you guys are in for a treat of an episode

That scene with Kim and Howard was intense, one of the best moments of the show so far. She really unloads in that exchange her real feelings towards Howard. Much like the box cutter scene, this ep really shows how ruthless Gus is. Nacho is truly strawberry floated now, no getting out of the game for him.

Kim (well the actress playing her!) is amazing. :wub:
