Jay 37,364 Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 The Cinnabon Gene scenes are some of my favorite parts of the show. Right before each new season starts I re-watch each of them shortly before the season premiere This is what I'm expecting to happen this year, once they announced this season will be 13 episodes instead of 10: Episode 1 - usual Gene cold open, ending with the biggest cliffhanger yet rest of Episode 1 through episode 10 - wrap-up of the main timeline story they've been telling. Towards the end we are overlapping with the Breaking Bad timeframe and see Saul's viewpoints on things we saw in BB (like that one flashforward they did in season 4). Ends with Jimmy leaving everyone behind to go into hiding in Omaha via Ed (which would have been shown but with Robert Forester passing that will have to be discussed without being shown I guess unless they already filmed it in secret) Episode 11 - continues the black and white Gene scene from the cliffhanger, but at some point it transitions to color. Rest of episode 11 through episode 13 - continuation of the Gene story line to some kind of... probably tragic but maybe not ending GerateWohl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season ended with Saul and Rhea planning some crackpot scheme to discredit and ruin the lawyer the used to work for.

bruce marshall 1,315 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Kim's metamorphosis is not credible. I worked in law; no attorney would act like she has.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 And I've dealt with lawyers before, particularly IP/patent attorneys, and fuck they're the dryest, most off-putting matter-of-fact personalities you'll ever encounter, it's almost eerie. I'm actually intimidated speaking to them even on a casual basis because I'm scared they'll charge me a fee for simply having an informal chat with them. //shudder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce marshall 1,315 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Right. They are not impulsive. They wouldn't actively work against their client. They wouldn't jeopardize their law license for a scoundrel like Jimmy. And, if they are as hot as Kim, they wouldn't let him even be her clerk.

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Their impulsions and hot-headedness creates drama or else there'd be no show. We want our fictional characters to have some sort of exceptionalism to them to distinguish them from their dry, conformist peers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce marshall 1,315 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 There is ZERO chemistry between the two. I never believe she cares for Jimmy. Not for a moment. Remember the storyline about the pensioners being ripped off? They acted like lawyers not grifters. The latest story seem phony and lazy.. The drug smuggling storyline is far better When Kim double crossed her client- who.had treated her very well- all credibility in the character as a real person, went out the window.

GerateWohl 4,370 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I really like the show. But during the last season, I thought, this is one season too many. In the fifth season they should have finalized the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holko 9,526 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It's the drug stuff I have the least interest in, BB did a better job integrating it in small enough doses, even Mike isn't enough to keep me too interested. But I'm fully captivated anytime Jimmy or Kim are on screen. GerateWohl and Edmilson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSH 969 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I love it, the entire universe. Eagerly awaiting this final season and finding out if and however it connects to the Breaking Bad chronology.... and the fate of the present-day Saul. Saul didn't join Breaking Bad until the latter half of Season 2, so there's a decent amount of shared continuity, if they have chosen to 'connect' both shows up... which I should imagine they have to some extent. I don't want them to do anything too obvious but it does need to end well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce marshall 1,315 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 There is a big difference between the two shows. BB never passed itself off as a serious, realistic drama. It's melodrama, pulp Gilligan admits this and said he was surprised audiences took it as a serious statement. 6 hours ago, Glóin the Dark said: Given the programme we're talking about, I believe there's a glaring flaw in your argument. Jimmy is a.con man above all. Kim never gave any clue as to her deviant behavior. Bad writing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce marshall 1,315 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Well, if you mean her going along with Jimmy's cons, that's part of the whole story arc I have problems with.
