Love that damn show, but I'm a sucker for comic nonsense and shows with great soundtracks. The actor who plays 5 is Fing incredible for his age. As long as you can put up with some (purposeful) cheese I can't recommend it enough. It's a really well done show and would recommend 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain F Posted August 25, 2020 Author Share Posted August 25, 2020 Watched Norsman season 3. Like mentioned above, some very funny parts. I really don't understand these 6 episode seasons, especially when they are only 30 minutes each. It looks like they spend a fortune on production, so why not take advantage of the sets and all that? Great show, just not enough of it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gannan Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I loved BB, but kind of meh about Better Call Saul. The stories and characters just aren't as consistently interesting. Every once in a while I'll see an episode that is really good, then it's followed up by 2-3 where nothing much really happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemack8 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Man - I guess I’m just way more into Kim Wexler than most. Rhea Seehorn is ukin brilliant - the fact that she hasn’t even been nominated for an Emmy yet, let alone won, is one of the biggest jokes in TV 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fair take. I love both but I can see how BCS is the more humorish show with occasional dark/action scenes whereas BB is the more dark/action packed show with occasional humorish scenes. I give BCS the nod in acting and cinematography though. Walter was the only great actor with Mike, Gus, Saul being very good. The 3 good are already in BCS with Kim, Lalo, Howard and Chuck all being pretty great 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, it’s a much slower burn. The last season was really good though with that. Stakes definitely picked up now that the cartel/Gus is more involved.

The guy in France Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Better Call Saul, this past season felt like there should have been farther along with the story as if they put in too much filler. Felt the same way about the last season of Ozark, stretching it too thin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't "cancelled" per se but a third season was put on "indefinite hold" because the director wanted to focus on other projects he had going on so I would guess thats it but who knows. Fun fact if you didn't know, the main actor Jonathan Groff was the original King George from Hamilton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfway through the second and so far its good but falls a bit short of season 1. Again still really good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have done more if it was a show Explained your issue below I think. Quote Hide contents They kinda explained the dying thing in the first confrontation of the movie. The first time you take it you don't know your power. So if you live and get superstrength, you will always get superstrength. If you blow up or freeze or whatever...then your dead lol.

I despised that dynamic which is why it took me a 2nd/3rd try to power through this. Going from BrBa and the constantly escalating tension and action that explodes at its end to a flawed sibling drama dynamic in BCS at its core early on was such a hard transition for me. I felt like I was in Chucks blacked out curtains house in his tinfoil blanket for 6 years in those early seasons. Couldn't wait to move past that, but even when you do its into more legal white collar crime before slowly introducing the cartel characters later on. This show has moments of greatness (which for me are the flash forwards with Gene) but it is absolutely appropriate in saying that it's not for everyone. Whereas BrBa was a TV viewing experience that everyone should have, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
