Season 6 was fuckin terrible and Lalo was laughable as a villain
>>218701520>WE GONNA MAKE A BB PREQUEL>IT WILL BE SAUL GOODMAN’S JOURNEY OF BECOMING SAUL GOODMAN>*becomes Saul Goodman in a montage 4 episodes from the end*
>>218701537exactly this. the timejump felt abrupt af and you can't make me believe that Season 6 Saul was the same Saul in Breaking Bad. Fucking terrible writing
>masterminds money laundering for a billion dollar criminal drug empire >brought down doing some half-assed ripoff of Bad Santa
>>218701569It really felt like they didn’t know how long the show would go. It seemed like they had a plan at the end of season 1, with him going back to Chicago and taking his friend’s pinky ring, right up until he made the Saul Goodman commercial. Then it went off kilter for awhile and they tried to steer it back in season 5. But it ended up being overshadowed by Saul’s punished Goodman “friend of the cartel” shit where he behaved more like season 1 or 2 Saul than how he’d been built up up until the season 5 premiere
>>218701598The Gene scenes are some of the most boring that Breaking Bad universe has to offer
>>218702015I wish they would rerelease it without the faggy black & white shit. It’s so pretentious
>>218702120With the exception of the "Sugar Town" scene (which I love because that song is banger), the black and white flashforward solifies that Better Call Saul will never, ever be as good as or "better than Breaking Bad" (LMFAO). Pretentious shit.There's also a lot of useless fan service throughout the show, and Lalo being a Salamanca is just lazy writing.
>>218702120It somewhat made sense for the flash-forwards since they were only a few minutes at the start of a season, but they obviously never planned on an extended post-Breaking Bad story, and felt like they were stuck with the black and white for whatever reason. The whole universe actually is just them writing themselves into a corner then barely writing themselves out of it.
>>218701520I don't even remember what happened in Season 6, but I agree that Lalo was an absurd villain. He's teased as some super-genius but then he just... ignores his intuition and lets characters get away with betraying him to create fake drama.
>>218701520>You will never be able to pay a vacuum repair man to disappear from this life and start over again
Lalo headshotting all of Gus's minions before they can react is the most cartoonish thing in the setting.
Lalo is badly written, Gus is terribly acted.
>>218702759lmao part of the reason i hate this life is because of my career failures and lack of money
is this the thread
>>218701520Lalo would be among the best villains in fiction if he actually killed Gus and changed fate itself, but Vince is a coward.
>>218703961>Kill Gus >you hear a bang>Lalo gets domed>out of the shadows steps another Gus>”why do you think we called it “The Chicken Brothers”?>cut to Mike looking shockedbravo Vince
>>218704078Would have been peak.
>>218701520bad take I can't think of a better ending
>>218701537They actually did the same fucking thing with BrBa>IT’S GONNA BE MR. CHIPS TURNING INTO SCARFACE BRO>Walt is pretty much just trying to prevent himself and his family from getting murdered until S5 when he turns into a cartoon villain
>>218702210>alo being a Salamanca is just lazy writing.I thought this. Tuco is a low IQ retard. His uncle is basically a slave to the cartel boss who he hates; but all of a sudden there's a longlost Salamanca who's a big brained chad who is extremely resourceful to the point he can survive in the desert and go to the other side of the world to find someone who is basically invisible. Lalo really ruined BCS.
