Hope we see more of Nacho. I love his character. Fantastic actor whoever that guy is.

It's hard to grade folks for a job they've done playing characters that they created, so I can't compare the 'new crew' to guys like Odenkirk and Esposito.

But man, Patrick Fabian has just killed it as Howard Hamlin. He's had just enough nuance to his performance that you can see the occasions of guilt and betrayal. His sheen of arrogance is exposed as pride and duty on occasion as well.

Hamlin, against all odds, has become one of the most likable characters in the show, IMO.

I'm just really glad that Rhea is getting this opportunity to be lauded for both her beauty and her talent.

She's always been attractive, but her particular look has typecast her as the bitchy WASPy friend. She was in a string of dire sitcoms bitching about her ex-boyfriend and her painful shoes for laughs. Then she came in as the foil in the last season of Franklin and Bash.

She's one of those you see and say 'I HATE this show, but I hope she gets better work later.'

Is it just me, or do you feel the kicking of the table was too drawn out? I fail to see the purpose. Maybe if Chuck's condition had created ticks and spasms before (it always seemed to paralyze him), could I see the purpose behind the drawn out scene, but it felt like it was filler and served no other true purpose.

Bash away.

Yeah. She trips my trigger.

Beyond that though, her internal identity crisis is a pretty big deal in the story. It's obviously not as overt as Chuck offing himself, But it is a big plot piece. Kim has always grounded Jimmy. Given him a glimpse of a life to strive for. Now that she's going off the rails a bit, his moral compass is going to be gone and lead further down the road of Saul. Good writing too, something as innocuous as a completely unrelated car accident subtly but dramatically changes 2 characters lives.

Par for the course. The writing has been largely excellent.



Meh. Looked to me like he was getting up the nerve to do it. Happens a lot with suicides. People half ass it and chicken out before they do it for real.

Besides, have you watched the show? The producers love to work towards an event rather than stuffing it down your throat.

Neither Jimmy or Chuck are sociopaths. They both walk a grey line but they're not engaged in criminal activity.

Manipulation? Sure.

Chuck wasn't evil. He was an asshole. Jimmy isn't evil but he's often very self serving although he's shown more compassion than Chuck ever did by helping Kim.

But in the end, neither are sociopaths.

No battles with Jimmy

No battles with Howard
Bluff called on the ouster suit, at personal expense to his partner, demonstrating just how unwelcome his continued presence was.
No battles with malpractice underwriters
No battles with the electricity coursing through his house.
Every connection had been severed [literally and figuratively] and no one was left to battle, judge or defeat.
