Better Call Saul spoilers for season 1 and 2
I’ve been watching BCS recently and I’ve got to say it kind of sucks and isn’t as good as I remember Breaking Bad being. Things seem to happen with very little reason and a great deal of convenience. Like why the hell would Jimmy not show the advertisement to his bosses at Davis & Mains first before airing it?? There is absolutely no benefit to not doing so, and he already knew that the bosses had a positive opinion on an ad so they’d almost definitely approve it.
And why would Mike choose to get beaten up by Tuco?? “Sorry, it’s too dangerous to shoot this guy with a rifle at distance, instead I’m going to get into a hand to hand fight when he has a revolver and I have no gun.” I mean I know Tuco must live to the next series, but still that was kind of silly. Or like Mike got an in into the criminal underworld of Albuquerque by just asking a rando taxi driver who happened to know a vet who had illegal work.
It’s not alll bad, I really liked the plot about Mike’s son, the show has good moments it’s just that the scenes between the moments make little sense.
Idk maybe I just have rose tinted glasses for BB and BCS is the same quality and I’m just remembering BB being better. Inbetween watching BB and BCS I did watch The Sopranos so maybe my standards just hot higher, idk. Are the later BCS seasons better?
Money me. Me needing money a lot now
