    Great episode and even better since nothing I expected to happen actually did happen.

    Fucking fantastic.

    So Gus and Mike think Lalo is dead now? He knows Nacho was in on it.

    I can’t wait for the final season

    I liked how the soft yellow light was shining on Kim the whole time she was talking this plan at the end, making her look angelic, but the plan was as devious as we’ve seen in this show. I wonder if that was on purpose or if I’m just over analyzing shit.

    It also gives us a really good idea of where BCS is within the BB timeline because you know that Saul knows Lalo isn’t wasting any time trying to get revenge.

    All the Lalo/mexico stuff was really great, but man did kim steal the show again. I was so caught up in Jimmys dealings that i didnt notice Kim spiraling out of control. I thought he’d divorce her because things got too scary and he didnt want her to be a part of it and she’s just like “why dont you get worse, big boi?” i’m fucking blown away about how they made so much shit around Jimmy, the shootout, Lalo coming over etc. that they snug that shit with Kim up on me. Its not like she hasnt struggled this season, but this? didnt see it coming for a single moment. Now im like what the fuck happens with Kim? it could be anything litterally anything.

    She is now the one pushing Jimmy to be worse instead of keeping him honest. holy fucking shit.

    This show is a fucking masterpiece.

    also this about sums it up:

    For nearly five seasons, I was afraid for Kim. Now I’m afraid of Kim.

    I know its all kind the new thing to switch people around to switch the viewers perception of the character.

    Howard
    Jamie Lannister
    Etc etc.

    But my god do the other examples fucking pale in comparison to Kim.

    I dont know how you do writing on this level, it blows my mind.

    They might do a split season 6 with part 1 up to mid-season 2 and part 2 post BB?
    Jimmy isn’t full on BB Saul yet either.

    These guys are the best because we’re all going to be trying to figure this mindfuck out from now until the next season premiers.

    Im sure it will tie together at the end, but they seem pretty unconcerned about the BB timeline. and i’m fine with that its the same universe and it should tie into BB but i bet they wanna tell a new story rather than get into the bb timeline too much.

    Just my guess i know as little as the next guy.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if we have to wait until 2022, unfortunately. All the stuff that got delayed that is supposed to start production before BCS was scheduled to start, if it even was, is going to take priority, I’d imagine.

    Yeah everything new is going to get pushed back a not insignificant amount. Luckily there's a shit ton of great television content that's already been made so we should all be able to survive

    I thought the same thing as I was watching it.

    Lalo is incredible.

    The first three seasons are very good but they are certainly slower than BB. It was a slower burn, which I appreciated.

    Finally, if I remember correctly when they started this show they were coy when asked if we'd see Walter at all in the show. I'd like to see it for nostalgia purposes and because I trust Gilligan to do it right. He's fucking incredible.

    Pissed I have to wait a looooong time to finish this wonderful show

    Please keep Banks healthy and alive on these trying times

    Really great how at the start of S1 and so on, I didn't feel like there were stakes at play since I know how it ends out to be in BB, that's definitely changed
