That was a [I]damn[/I] good episode. I could feel my eyes widening towards the end.
Also this episode reminded me that I fucking love lawyer drama, does anyone know of any good movies or shows that deal with this kind of stuff? (Think: A Few Good Men, for example.)

Watch the new OJ Simpson show if you haven't. Regardless of whether you know the verdict already, it's the best courtroom thing I've seen in a long time.
That felt good to watch. Awesome episode.
Nice. Nice. Nice.
I'm glad this show keeps it's quality at BrBa level. Seeing this thread less active than back when BrBa was on I'm hoping it's popular enough to get to it's conclusion and not perhaps get cancelled too early.
Dear God that last episode was so. Damn. Satisfying.
The actor who plays Chuck is extremely good. Dude deserves an Emmy for the last episode alone.
Incredible episode
My heart rate was all over the place towards the end.
Chucks rant at the end was really sad, but it explains so much about him and why he hates Jimmy.
The pain you hear in his voice on the line about Jimmy being the favorite son felt real. I thought Chuck resented Jimmy for becoming a lawyer, but it almost sounds like he felt betrayed by Jimmy making that choice. Knowing how black and white Chuck is about the law I was always under the impression that he felt like he was doing it as a some kind of self righteous crusader.
I cant help but wonder if the real reason is because Chuck is obsessed with doing the right thing out of being the devoted son who took care of his family and was ignored, while the son who did the wrong things was favored.
Michael McKean did really nailed that scene though, Chuck has never opened up like that in the series. Theres been anger at Jimmy in the series 1 finale yes, but this was Chuck actually opening the floodgates for once. Gotta wonder how much self loathing and rage is in this guy.
get rekt [sp]chuck[/sp]
fantastically written episode. that episode alone has made up for the waiting for this season so I can't wait to see where it goes next.
everyone's talking about chuck getting fucked but don't forget about this:
[sp]"Nepotism. Your firm is Hamlin, Hamlin and McGill. Who is the other Hamlin?"
"My father."[/sp]
FUCKING OWNED
It's really exciting to see how the setting of Breaking Bad is coming together during Better Call Saul: [sp]the big dude who Jimmy hired to plant the battery on Chuck, isn't that Jimmy's security dude during Breaking Bad? And isn't the receptionist that Jimmy and Kim hired for their office also the same receptionist that Jimmy has in Breaking Bad?[/sp]
It's kind of dark at this point in the season as well. You know that Jimmy will sever his connections to people like Kim, Chuck and Hamlin by the time of Breaking Bad. Now, we're watching exactly how that happens.
Also Chuck [sp]got fucked hard[/sp]

[sp]Pay close attention to Chuck when he rants and when he back pedals. The camera zooms in when he goes deep into his soul and zooms out when he leaves.[/sp]

[sp]I really love the camera shot after his rant where he just feels like a tiny person in a big empty space. He had his ex wife, he had his brother who loved him, but right after his rant you could see that he was just a petty little man who pushed everyone away and is now truly alone. Nobody on his side.[/sp]

American Crime Story pretty much only focused on the trial of the OJ case and did a terrific job dramatizing it.
God my heart was racing so fast and I was standing for the entire court room scene. Amazing episode, and great acting/callback techniques
I was shaking by the end of the last episode. God damn that was good.
The whole thing had me so wrapped up in it that it only felt like twenty minutes as well, the wait for next week is going to be hard.
Started watching Better Call Saul lately since I feel like I've waited long enough for me to watch it after watching Breaking Bad.
Gotta say, I'm liking how Jimmy and Mike split the protagonist role somewhat similarly to how Walt and Jesse did in Breaking Bad, though without being partners. It really isn't just a show about Jimmy, and getting to know more about both Mike and Jimmy is really great cause I thought they were some of the best side characters in Breaking Bad.
it's been said 100 times in this thread already but holy shit that last episode was immense
I've rewatched the last 10 minutes five times now
But I'll still rewatch the whole episode just before I see the next one
[sp]i predict a jimmy/chuck recreation of 'loss' within the coming season[/sp]
[sp]No more Jimmy only Saul[/sp]
That was a great episode. Surprised I didn't see more discussion of it when I checked the thread, though admittedly a lot of what I liked was just breaking bad wank. [sp] Lydia's appearance and the laundromat were really exciting to see. Lydia's one of the characters I think it makes the most sense to have return, she didn't get much time in breaking bad considering how big of a role she played. [/sp]
[sp] SAUL GOODMAN [/sp]
