I pray to God Bryan and Aaron don't show up until Part 2 so Mando can hopefully get a guest nod. I doubt they would have revealed it if they don't appear in Part 1. Sadly you're probably right.

Jimmy in Hamlinface was fucking hilarious. The Kim/Mike scene gave me latter-day GOT flashbacks tbh … though thankfully not nearly as egregious and it’s like the only blemish on the season so far.

The mid-season finale was Vince Gilligan's Uncut Gems, and it was utterly heartbreaking.

What just transpired actually makes me more confident that Kim doesn't die. I seriously doubt they'd kill off all 5 of Chuck, Nacho, Howard, Lalo and Kim.

I read a fan theory some time ago that, if it pans out, would be the bleakest ending to a series I can imagine: Jimmy-as-Gene runs into Kim in Omaha, only to find that she has remarried to a dirtbag, has a few kids, and is running schemes just like her own mother did. And when Jimmy tries to make amends, Kim sells him out for the reward. I read that theory and immediately had to lie down.

There have been a few symbolic camera shots these first 7 episodes of Kim appearing to be behind bars maybe as a foreshadowing of her fate and my guess that faced with the guilt of what she was an accomplice towards indirectly (the death of Howard Hamlin), she commits suicide in prison. Which would be interesting because she would be the 3rd major character during the duration of this show to technically do that.

It's possible that they don't even kill off Lalo considering Saul asks Walt and Jesse if Lalo sent them when he first meets them in Breaking Bad iirc... unless he's a completely different character also named Lalo.

Well I assume Saul just doesn't become aware of Lalo's death. Remember, Gus tells Hector that the Salamanca name dies with him.

Tonight’s episode was a masterpiece! As much as I love other shows like The Boys, there’s Better Call Saul and then there’s everything else.

With Mike insinuating to Saul that Lalo is dead by saying "he's not coming back," I'm still trying to make sense of that Lalo line in Breaking Bad. I guess you could say that during that moment with Walt and Jesse, Saul thought for a second that Lalo might not be dead after all... (?)

I think it was last season but Saul mentions he's afraid because Lalo has guys everywhere and he could have sent others after him Maybe that's what he's still afraid of in Breaking Bad.

No supporting actor nods, no directing nods. Utter bullshit that Banks and Esposito didn't win for "Five-O" and "Hermanos" when they were the clear best in their fields those years, and they're set to cap their runs as Mike and Gus without an Emmy to their names. But for Mando, Fabian and ESPECIALLY Tony Dalton to go without nominations at all? Horseshit. And come on, Thomas Schnauz missing a Directing nod when he was giving us Safdie Brothers energy in "Plan and Execution" is a crime.

Do you have to have seen BB before watching this show? I want to watch BCS but I just didn't like BB.

In light of the last couple episodes, I wonder if it will happen that Howard’s death becomes the thing that drives Saul and Kim apart… like the guilt over being responsible for Howard being in the wrong place at the wrong time will just eat at her, whereas Saul might be able to recover from his death more easily. Perhaps she becomes disturbed that Saul can brush off his death so easily while she struggles to move past it, and this is what drives a wedge between them – the fact that Saul sort of “normalizes” Howard’s death and becomes comfortable with it, and this is the line in the sand that Kim is unable to cross with Saul psychologically.

I was so sure we were getting at least one of Jesse or Walt there at the end. Especially considering people were touting this as one you "had to see live".
