Better Call Saul - Season Five Discussion

Same here!

 

Yes- that's how I found out about it. When I saw the episodes to be recorded on my DVR, I wondered why? New episodes??? A little googling got me the answer.

 

I gotta say the bonus content was pretty underwhelming. I spent an awful lot of time on the FF button. I didn't feel the need to rewatch all the episodes at this time, but will likely revisit before Season 6 comes, whenever that is.

 

Aaannnd, here it is July 13th, anf I'm just seeing this.

I've been waiting weeks to catch up since my DVR failed to get the third-to-the-last episode...

 

I recorded eps. 9 and 10. Were these the only ones to have new interviews?

I need to check these out.

 

Only watched ep 1 so far, but yes, no real content, just a couple of appearances by Saul and Kim. VERY underwhelming.

If I understood correctly, yes only the last two shows have real content.

 

Also watched the 1st show of Giancarlo's hosted show The Broken and the Bad. Wasn't very impressed w/ that either so far. Just a wacky lawyer whose strategy is to be so irksome he circumvents the law. Not unlike Saul in some ways but nowhere nearly as interesting.

 

No Emmy love for Rhea.

Watchmen, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Lead This Year’s Emmy Nominations

 

BCS got screwed over big time, especially Rhea. Unbelievable.

 

Eight nominations is fantastic, but one for acting? C'mon! Rhea and Tony should easily be there. Bob, Michael, and Jonathan all did excellently this season... certainly worthy of nomination too.

 

They act so well they don't see it as acting.

 

Methinks some well placed "Chicago sunrooves" may be in order.........

 

Even though I have a few issues with Better Call Saul in general, the acting is always tremendous, and Rhea Seehorn not getting a nomination for this past season is a travesty. Just like Michael McKean not getting a nomination when he was a regular on the show was as well.

 

i will admit upfront that i have not seen The Handmaids Tale or Succession(gotta start that one), but i have seen every episode of The Crown, Ozark, Killing Eve, Westworld, & Big Little Lies. and for Rhea Seehorn to not be nominated over Fiona Shaw, Laura Dern, or Meryl Streep is a god damned travesty! and even Thandie Newton, who i love, is barely acceptable due to the ridiculous travesty of a mess that was the most recent season of Westworld. PROVES that a majority of the voters don't watch what they vote for and look at names almost exclusively. also goes right to my previously posted point of the need for these awards to be split entirely between streaming and broadcast/cable programming. too many fantastic people at all levels of at home entertainment not being acknowledged for their work!

How Peter Gould Made ‘Better Call Saul’ Distinct From ‘Breaking Bad’

 

13 episodes...cool!

 

"It's an honor just to be nominated", we've all heard that one before. Imagine doing something so well, and not being even noticed for it...or, as the Brits call it, "Tatiana Maslany".

'Saul' Co-Creator: Final Season Puts 'Breaking Bad' in 'Different Light'

 

Well, I was loaned the first four seasons, and think that is as far as I will go. I may never know if the Chilean gang lord will dispose of the Salamancas at last, or what that damned excavation that Mike was overseeing was about.

 

I'm not sure if BCS would have worked for me either if I hadn't already seen BB. It's missing the major context and no doubt a lot of subtext too that way.
Can a prequel ever really work without having seen the 'quel'?
