    Anyone? No? It's the parking tickets with stickers for court he gives to Mike.

    First two episodes have impressed me, 2nd one in particular. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the season!

    Trying to explain proportionality to Tuco was too good.

    I agree. Watched both episodes back to back last night since I missed Sunday's premiere. Will definitely be watching Monday nights from now on.

    It's definitely very good, but I kind of find it lacking in suspense. It's unavoidable because it's spin-off prequel, but that Tuco scene would have been a lot more intense if we didn't know how Tuco and Saul turn out later in BB.

    Had no idea how the twin redheads would turn out. It could of ended up that Saul led them to their death. That added suspense.

    True. But for example, comparing it to the "Grilled" episode in BB, it wasn't quite the same. I almost wish I didn't watch BB to watch this show, because it's unavoidable in my mind to not compare them especially if they keep using the same characters. I hope they bring in a lot more new and interesting characters, I'm not interested in a lesser version of BB with similar characters.

    This show snuck up on me, I didn't know that it had debuted until I saw it on my guide last night. Set the DVR and will definitely catch up once the first show re-airs.

    Just watched the finale of Breaking Bad last night. Really great. Ranks up there with the final episode of Six Feet Under for best finale ever.

    I agree with you but watching how they get there in BB is what I'm interested in seeing too. Also agree that they need to introduce new characters and not just use all the characters from Breaking Bad.

    Good call! Six Feet Under was such an under-appreciated show, and I still think it holds the title of best series finale ever. I've watched it probably 50 times, but it still gets me to this day. Such a great series!

    I have the first two episodes of BCS recorded, but was only able to get through about 20 minutes before my sick toddler threw a fit and I had to switch to cartoons. Hopefully I'll get to watch them tonight.

    iPad bro, with the PBS Kids and Watch Disney Jr apps. Put it into Accessibility Mode so that they can't screw with the volume or exit the app. You get to watch your own TV and they still get their Elmo and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

    Hot dog, hot dog, hot diggty dog! That's a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse reference btw. I have a two year old, in case that wasn't painfully obvious. lol

    also everyone keeps referring to saul's brother. i thought it was his dad?? saul just passed his bar exam and his "brother" started a built a successful law firm already? he looks like he's at least 20 years older than saul.

    I was wondering the significance of the Cinnabon intro, then I remembered this.
