2025-09-30 16:24:08 +0000 UTCAnd thats part of the fun seeing reactors watch this series, as they all get behind Jimmy and nail Chuck to the cross, forgetting what Jimmy has done and what he becomes.

2024-12-19 04:08:32 +0000 UTCHe doesn't try all that hard before resorting to his scams though, and thats all before Chuck helps enable him to become what we know he will later.

2024-12-19 04:07:42 +0000 UTCHi Vicky. If you enjoyed the scamming part of this episode, which you clearly seemed to, check out the greatest con movie of all time, THE STING. A bonus for you, more than me, it also happens to star 2 of the most handsome movie stars in Hollywood history. But even if it didn't, it's still the greatest con movies of all time. I can't wait to watch you watch it. And for anyone else out there reading this, you should check it out too.

2024-11-20 08:18:27 +0000 UTCThere is a deep, controversial theme playing throughout the stories of Jimmy, Chuck, Mike, and Marco. As Mike said, there are good people who are criminals and bad people who are law-abiding. Notice, for instance, that most of the folks being scammed by "Slippin' Jimmy" and Marco appear to, in some sense, "deserve" it. They're trying to get the better of people, and Jimmy and Marco use that to throw it back at 'em. That's what makes most scams work. And as Jimmy says, at his most vulnerable point, "The Hills Have Eyes was a documentary." The world is fundamentally corrupt. Finding the good, either above or below the law, is a difficult effort. It is a powerful cynicism which sets Jimmy onto the eventual path of becoming Saul, learned through the betrayal of brothers and the tragedy of lost friendship. Perhaps the cleverest of keys is the ring. Jimmy fiddles with it whenever he makes big decisions. It is a reminder than the good, the actual good in this world, can be something as simple as a devoted, flawed friend. The world at large is, largely, a wasteland.

2024-09-10 02:03:49 +0000 UTCI think Jimmy RESPECTS the Dark Side. :D We've seen time and time again that Jimmy has a conscience, and it always nags at him. We see him struggle constantly with his dubious decisions all season long. We can't accuse him of being REAL evil, and I think that's the whole idea of the show. Everything is a shade of gray. Everyone is gray in Better Call Saul. Chuck is gray because he simultaneously wants to sponsor his kid brother's growth while keeping him at long-arms reach in the professional association field. Hamlin cares only for his own image while (arguably) genuinely enjoys seeing his underling's success. In this episode we mix the black of sorrow of Marco's passiing with the white of 'it was the best week of this nobody's entire life'. Kim though.. Kim is a Real friend, as we've seen. She stands up for him in private in Hamlin's office. She's just adventurous enough with Jimmy to entertain some out-of-the-blue interactions or favors. This episode had me emotional the entire time. Been a while since I've watched the show, and I remembered that Marco passes away during this episode. So all show-long I'm reflecting on how Slippin' Jimmy comes back and gives this poor going-nowhere best friend the week of a lifetime doing the greatest thing he's ever known, doing the Art with his best bud, probably for the biggest cash haul he's ever done. It was kind of beautiful though. He could've passed with a smile on his face doing what he loved best. One could argue that's what he came into the world to do - take the town and feel like a complete King, with the best wingman ever. Better than a movie. That's why - while I feel sad about his passing, it feels like a happy ending for the poor guy, you know?

2024-03-31 04:02:35 +0000 UTCDid you notice that the woman who tells him "You're not Kevin Costner" is a reference to an episode of Breaking Bad in which Saul tells a story about one day pretending to be Kevin Costner?

2024-03-29 22:11:36 +0000 UTCJimmy continued to wear Marco's ring throughout Breaking Bad too. This is just one example of the writers adding to depth to something that was originally insignificant. I am sad to see your already through the first season but excited for the five to come. This show is a slow burner throughout but it is masterful in it's details.

2024-03-10 22:22:16 +0000 UTCIt's been super cool to watch season 1 with you in this digital, synced-up kind of way. Like a virtual friend of sorts to give me a reason to re-binge this amazing series. Looking forward to your impressions on Season 2 and beyond. Cheers.

2024-03-09 21:10:53 +0000 UTCEven though the show is a lot like Breaking Bad, in a way it's almost the opposite. "Breaking Good" would've been a suitable title, for season 1 anyway. Where Breaking Bad followed a man suddenly turning to a life of crime and his morals slowly degrading, Better Call Saul follows a scam artist criminal genuinely trying to walk the straight and narrow with the whole world seemingly against it.

2024-03-09 21:03:15 +0000 UTCmaybe the worst moment to eat a chocolate bar of all time lol
Edward Garrity
2024-03-09 20:02:52 +0000 UTCHoward never wanted to be Jimmy's enemy. He actually really liked him.
Edward Garrity
2024-03-09 19:56:36 +0000 UTCI was hoping that you don;t notice the chocolate for rest of the reaction :D, lol That was a greating ending, i think jimmy meant that "doing the right thing" is not stop him to get some moneys anymore. Waiting for S2 now!

2024-03-09 16:54:09 +0000 UTCGetting screwed over by Chuck and Marco dying... the seeds of Saul Goodman have been planted.
Joe Blankenship
2024-03-09 16:19:04 +0000 UTCI'm not gonna make fun of you for not remembering, that Chuck can't call Jimmy. That chocolate on your chin though... :D
Andrew
2024-03-09 13:40:30 +0000 UTCit really does show that jimmy is reeeeally trying to be a good guy, playing by the book, but Chuck only wants to keep him where he is!
neez duts
2024-03-09 10:49:30 +0000 UTCOne thing to note… the use of the Kennedy Half Dollar story about facing east towards the past or west towards the future/new-frontier… You can see it represented in the shot at the end with Jimmy facing east, and then turning back towards his true destiny.

2024-03-09 08:14:43 +0000 UTCI'm sorry but that "Oh no I'm so embarrassed" was so freaking adorable 😭

2024-03-09 07:52:40 +0000 UTCIn Breaking Bad Saul tells Walt one time that he convinced a woman he was Kevin Costner 🤣
Matt
2024-03-09 06:29:57 +0000 UTCYou nailed it describing Saul & Marco's relationship. The commentary has been top tier so don't hold anything back.
Jorge Hernandez
2024-03-09 05:27:10 +0000 UTCWithout digging into it too much, even in season one, you can see that Chuck is a massive presence over both Jimmy AND Howard. Despite being brother and peer respectively, Chuck really comes across as a father to both. And then once you realize Jimmy and Howard are spiritually brothers, the nuances of their relationship starts to clear up.

2024-03-09 04:58:16 +0000 UTCDamn this show is so good. The entire BB/BCS universe. Saul says to Walt “I once convinced a woman I was Kevin Costner - and it worked, because ‘I’ believed it”. Marco telling Jimmy he should be king of the desert…driving around in a white caddy. Good call, Marco

2024-03-09 03:48:23 +0000 UTCThe best part is when you were eating chocolate while learning what a Chicago Sunroof is!
Javier Ruiz-Leon Jr.
2024-03-09 03:41:54 +0000 UTCOh yes, and a quick quote from Breaking Bad that applies to this episode. Saul talking to Walt: "I once convinced a woman I was Kevin Costner and it worked, because I believed it!"
TGrimace
2024-03-09 03:39:16 +0000 UTC"He's not going to scam anymore". "He got the scamming out of his system" Granted, it is an amazing series and easily stands on it's own, but I feel you forgot who Jimmy is in Breaking Bad.
TGrimace
2024-03-09 03:35:32 +0000 UTCI have watched a lot of reactions to this episode. I have never watched someone unintentionally smear chocolate all over their hands and face while Jimmy explains a Chicago sunroof. That was hysterical lmao
Josiah Kane
2024-03-09 03:03:42 +0000 UTCI think you misunderstood the ending a little. Yes, Jimmy wants to do his own thing, but this wasn't him walking a moral path. It was him walking away from it. Wearing his friends ring, singing Smoke on The Water, he's embracing that life. These are the beginnings of his transformation into Saul Goodman.
