psychosomatic hypochondria, the guy is off his rocker, and Jimmy/Saul is pretty much aware of it.

Chuck is suffering from an anxiety disorder…OCD-like or a phobia. Sort of like Howard Hughes but more focused on electromagnetics.

Meth is a hell of a drug. He looks "cleaner", maybe the different approach in the possibilities of a less "intense" Tuco was interesting to Cruz, being he walked away from the character for it just being too difficult of a character to be.

Seems calmer, like less of a junkie.

yea I really liked the first 2 episodes as well.

When the series was first announced, I had my doubts, but holy crap, I have that same feeling I had when Breaking Bad was rolling along. I just can't wait for new episodes

A show that finished airing a year and a half ago. And more specifically to this thread's "spoiler" a death that occurred in the season finale of Season 1.

There's a time limit on spoilers, and it's certainly less than 7 years.

I can see more groundbreaking things from the writers when this series ties things from BB into what Sal was doing the entire time. It could even go real-time into BB at some point with Cranston showing up in the office here and there, if it keeps going and is popular. It's already starting with back stories on some of the characters. This could turn out to be a very clever series.

I don't know why I was expecting this was just going to be some sort of situation 30 minute comedy with a cheesy laugh track. So, I am already happy with it. I'll stick with it. We'll see. I notice the writer is working on another major project. That may hurt how much effort is put into this venture with all the irons in the fire. It sort of looks like it is already taking its toll to a degree, but that may just be the set up to it all. I'm in and looking forward to seeing where it goes.

I would love, perhaps in season 3 or 4 of BCS, a mention of a "cray client" named Mr. White.


Would be awesome if down the road, it cuts to the present, and Jessie shows up to the Cinnibon needing help from Saul

I love seeing Saul's early interactions with Mike.

I guess Saul prefers boxers over briefs.

I haven't seen it discussed, but are Chuck and Jimmy/Saul brothers?
