If you’ve watched the first episode you already know it’s shit! You’re only watching for the skimpy wrestling outfits Confess!

"Yep, mike was top drawer, loved it how everything was an inconvenience before he just got on with it. May well watch BCS but another 40 episodes, the film is a no brainer and can' wait. Have you watched The American's? About the only one out there that appeals right now."

"Just finished Breaking Bad, when I said earlier in this thread that I wasn't convinced by it early doors (never said it was crap just not over impressed) even when writing that I just knew it was going to get better just based on how popular it is, how can so many people be wrong? Well fuck me, it did end up blowing me away, still not sure if in my top 3 but fmob that was some show and the last episode must be up there with the best tv ever. A truly great show. Not sure if I will watch better call saul as didn't buy into the character that much."

Each to there own. But some of the episodes of Better call Saul have been up there with the best of Breaking Bad. ( Mike leaving Philly. And Chuck’s courtroom meltdown come to mind.) As for Pinkman moaning. That’s the entire point of his character. He wanted to be a bad ass drug player. Then quickly realised he was over his head. But was tied at the hip with Walter. And was riding that storm for better or worse. He was originally going to get killed at the end of the first series. But Gilligan recognised how well both Cranston and Paul acted off each other. And decided to develop the character.(Admittedly with a fair bit of bitch’in thrown in.) I totally understand if it’s not your thing. But it’s superbly written. Wonderfully casted. And is without doubt. A TV series for the ages. All Hail The King.

collrob into episode 4 of Mindhunter. So far so good. I'm generally a big Breaking Bad fan. I think SE04 was some of the best TV ever. SE05 was a bit of a let down. Same with Better Call Saul. Got a feeling the film will be a let down without Heisenburger

Dukeofdevo Did 2 episodes of Pennyworth and it's OK albeit a bit slow. This Jack Bannon has got a young Michael Cain/Alfred to a tee. Nice idea with Bruce Wayne's dad etc however too much better stuff on.

As long as Gilligan is at the helm it’s bound to be a good film. Can’t wait!

Written and directed by Vince Gilligan again. Judging by the trailer it starts off where Jesse left off. Pedal to the medal getting away from the factory he was imprisoned and released by Walter. Also good news for anyone who liked the SAS Rogue Heroes stories. The BBC and Peaky Blinders writer Stephen Knight are working on a series.
