I'm on season 4 and I hate everything to do with Gus, Mike and the cartel. Mike was fine at first, but once he joins Gus he becomes a cartoon character just like Gus, just like Madrigal. Show was at its best when it was just Jimmy fooling around trying to make ends meet. I love his chemistry with Kim, I loved how repulsive Chuck was at the end, the lawyer stuff is just top notch. But Vince treats the cartel and Gus like cartoon characters. Granted, the cartel IS cartoonishly evil IRL but come on, wasn't this show supposed to be inspired by The Sopranos? When did Tony join a multi national company to launder money? Most "international" thing he ever did was sell stolen cars to his italian colleges and bring Furio to New Jersey.
>>214508375BCS gets worse and worse after Chuck dies. The last season is offensively bad. You can tell how much the show hated itself and how much the show writers loathed their creation. It's disappointing.He's also only really Saul Goodman for about five whole minutes. Every other minute and hour of the show he's either Jimmy or Gene. He's BB-era BB-personality BB-office Saul for a scene or two, no more.Remember in Breaking Bad how it made it seem like Jimmy was Saul and had that office for more than five minutes? How he introduced Walt to Ira's crew after having a history with them? Where did that history go? They didn't record itA show about Saul Goodman and they more or less skip over Saul Goodman, including established Saul Goodman historyIf I wanted to actually watch scenes of Saul Goodman be Saul Goodman I'd inevitably have to watch Breaking Bad, not Better Call SaulI thought it was going to be a slow burn or slow character development and that he would become Saul gradually, but no, he becomes Saul as gracefully and subtly as Anakin becomes Darth Vader. Kim leaves him, fast forward, he's balding and has prostitutes, he's Saul for five FUCKING minutes, then you've got Gene until the show dies a miserable death.Years I waited for this. What a sick joke.
