AMC's Better Call Saul

[kryaa]

Just to be a debbie downer, The 1st season of Lost was amazing too

I liked the other seasons of lost. I also thought the ending was good and made sense.
I also like Matrix 2 more than Matrix 1.

There "Here's Jonny!" moment in the last episode was funny as fuck.

 

[GimpSpack]

Was a huge fan of Breaking Bad.

Better Call Saul does not disappoint, although I find myself having to suspend belief more than I'd like.

I'm enjoying it so far. Very much a BB feel to it, especially the black-comedy parts.

Im thinking that they are going to bring some stuff tied into walt during the later seasons. Like stuff in the begining of walt/jesse we didnt see in bb. We shall see

Rocky IV is better than the first three combined.

Not sure about beginning, but I am seeing things like Saul arranging Tuco to deal with the new blue stuff etc.

You admitting all that other stuff along with it means to me that you know your taste is bad lol

Apples and Oranges. The writers were just making shit up as they were going along with Lost. This show is more comparable to Breaking Bad and I thought that show was excellent to the very end.

Actually I think - I could be wrong - Breaking Bad was written along the way and nothing was planned to the finish (or very loose). I know things like the Nazi gang wasn't planned ahead.

Lost, believe it or not, was only supposed to be one or two seasons, max. So they originally had a really good premise (along with some super intriguing folklore and backstory), to work with. At least for crafting a nice, engrossing, (albeit) short-term story.

Instead, they had to elongate (giggity!) said premise for waaaaaaaaay too many seasons, and that's basically how we ended up with the random, all-over-the-damn-place clusterfuck that was Lost as a whole. I still loved it, though. (Probably because that's pretty much also how my brain works.)

As for Better Call Saul, that show had me in the first few minutes at, "Near honor-students, ALL!"

But yeah, they definitely need to do more spin-off style TV shows, IMO.

Somewhere I read that the final scene from Lost was written and maybe even shot along with the pilot. I liked it up to the point where they found the dude underground.

You can thank the writers guild for going on strike mid first season....

But it(the strike) wasn’t all bad. Jesse Pinkman, the junkie turned heart and soul of Breaking Bad, was originally going to be killed off in episode 9 of the first season.

Instead, the strike halted production at episode 7 and creator Vince Gilligan rethought his plans based on actor Aaron Paul’s performance.

This show has me wanting to make some cucumber water.

Its horrible. Take my advice with a grain of salt, always.

That been said, amc is on a roll. Recently started "halt and catch fire" which has the potential to become yet another absolutely amazing show, damn.
