Realism? Good luck with that in most movies. This is why I watch so many reality TV shows and documentaries. I could come up with some more. Watching "A Wild Wild Country" on Netflix about The Rajneshies in Oregon. RE: Watched on Netflix (or other streaming channels) - GPnative - 06-04-2018 Gleason on Amazon Prime. It's riveting.

It had great reviews but probably not for me. It's a two year old movie so if it shows up on direct TV I'll give it a try.

I missed the start of the season and they aren't showing it on On Demand yet....so, now...but I find Better Call Saul while an excellent show to be very slow in general.

I'm having a hard time getting into this season. Yes, it is only 2 episodes in so don't give up on it yet. But I am enjoying it. There is a larger story building, with current day donut shop working Saul.

I'm having a hard time getting into this season. Thanks. I'm actually ok on television watching...I've got a another show I'm watching (yes, it has an accent) (no offence and Endeavor) and a couple of films on my list....Just watched The Glass Castle on Hulu, that was good. So, I know that eventually I'll catch up with Better Call Saul. RE: Watched on Netflix (or other streaming channels) - GCG - 08-15-2018 (08-14-2018, 10:14 PM)Valuesize Wrote:I binge watched the 1st 3 seasons over the course of the last 3 weeks. And I'm DVRing season 4. I thought that season 4 episode 1 was possibly the worst episode ever. Episode 2 was much better. At this point, I'm more interested in the storyline surrounding Mike then the than the one about Jimmy. I've never really been much for series TV. Watching Saul, Game of Thrones and BB is like a guilty, (and hypocritical), pleasure because I remember the dim view that I always had for people that were addicted to soaps. Watching these shows is about the same... just better writing and acting.(08-14-2018, 09:46 PM)Juniper Wrote:(08-14-2018, 09:22 PM)Valuesize Wrote: Anyone watching Better Call Saul S-4?

I was ok with it, it was certainly not a great episode on the action front, but the dialog was good (and well acted) and I think it was another great brick in the wall for the Jimmy to Saul conversion in how he was coping with Chuck / Howard and moving along the story of pre-Breaking Bad details, with Nacho, The Salamacas, Gus, etc. RE: Watched on Netflix (or other streaming channels) - Valuesize - 08-15-2018 (08-15-2018, 11:12 AM)GPnative Wrote: I was ok with it, it was certainly not a great episode on the action front, but the dialog was good (and well acted) and I think it was another great brick in the wall for the Jimmy to Saul conversion in how he was coping with Chuck / Howard and moving along the story of pre-Breaking Bad details, with Nacho, The Salamacas, Gus, etc. I didn't watch BB enough to carry ANY storyline to Saul, so that's probably detrimental to my whole Saul experience. I'm good with that though...

So many characters have tie in, some major, like Lydia etc. to minor, like Gus's henchmen following Nacho. Or hell even why Saul himself is in hiding as Gene! It matters....

I think most of all you mentioned that has roots in BB is easily figured out weather you have seen BB or not.

I'm good with that though... If you enjoy just surface level plots, sure that's what its all about then, the characters just being "alive" Quite honestly, I don't know why anyone would bother watching BCS without watching BB.

Well I don't see that but like they say it takes all kinds to make the world go around. I just don't see how much of what goes on with BCS DEPENDS or matters because of what I know from watching BB. I get that BBS is a prequel and many things tie together. But IMO In no way is BBS not worth watching if you haven't seen BB. |
