Great show. I knew Chuck was up to no good.
And again, Mike is the best.

Bob Odenkirk was on James Cordon last night and he said he actually learned how to make Cinnabons. Cinnabon brought in a representative and taught him how to do it.

Btw the guy who was the armed bodyguard giving Mike a hard time was the same guy who voiced Trevor from GTA 5.

Chuck kinda annoyed me all season with his issues. I knew there would be a big payoff for all the time they spent on him, and they really hit it out of the park.

That was really good. And it turns out Chuck will be right. Wonder if Jimmy turned into Atty Slippin Jimmy due to this or if it would have happened eventually anyway. I've been thinking and outside of the original BB references like Tuco, this show has been pretty much its own since then. I've really enjoyed it. Can't believe we're already at the end of the season.

Source of the post Wonder if Jimmy turned into Atty Slippin Jimmy due to this or if it would have happened eventually anyway.
I've been thinking about that a bit as well. I'm sure he would have always taken some shortcuts, but by doing this, Chuck has ensured that there is no other way for it to turn out. I'm not sure if I could ever see him being a totally "straight" lawyer, but he was at least trying... and this betrayal has ended any chance of him being legit.

i'm guessing he becomes Saul in this last episode. a name change to separate from his brother, maybe?

Yeah, that last episode was great. I knew he would lose the case somehow, but I didn't realize it would be because Chuck sold him out until Chuck made that late night phone call.

can't say i enjoyed that finale. the montage of them scamming people was the worst thing i've seen on a good show in a long time.
the episode was 45 minutes of nothing and then 2 or 3 scenes that all came out of nowhere. very poor story telling.

The finale was definitely the worst of the series so far. Nothing really happened at all. Even the "payoff" at the end when he vents to mike and drives off seemed really forced.

Hoping to watch the finale on the DVR tonight... though from the last couple posts seemed like it wasn't very good.

Just very uneventful for a finale I thought.

That sucks. Oh well the season overall was very good even if the finale was kind of meh. Gonna try to watch it later.

Finale was a bit of a letdown, but overall it was still a good season. Looking forward to the next one.

I nust started episode 7. Still think the spin off should have been about mike.

Piling on... Such a great 1st season and pretty bad finale. Nice to see others agree with me. I watched it with a friend who loved it, and then I saw the reviews online were positive.
O well. Still looking forward to season 2

Haha yeah that was awesome. Even the first time around in breaking bad it made me laugh. He looks just enough like Costner where you could see some drunk girl at a bar would believe it.
