Getting bored with this show.


Something's missing. I never expected Breaking Bad's level of quality, but Better Call Saul needs to step up its game. The first season was funny, the second got a bit more dramatic, but I was still on board, this time I'm not. Mike is cool, but there's a limit to how long I can watch him do is slow motion geriatric McGyver shtick. 40 minutes in 2 episodes is a lot.

We can see everything coming from miles away. I want to be surprised, not wait for the show to catch up to what I already know. All that happened in last night's episode could easily be guessed from the first episode. Mike going to Los Pollos Hermanos, Ernesto squealing about the tape, Jimmy breaking into Chuck's house.

Seems like the show is back on track. Last night's episode was great. A lot more exciting than watching Mike doing his things.

I actually really like the Mike scenes, but I agree this episode was a step up. Also I got a thrill of excitement at the end of the promo for the next episode, where we hear the words: "Saul Goodman!"
