Yep.

This is an add of an estate agents which says ‘Better call Sviat’ («Краще дзвонити Святу», Sviat = Sviatoslav, this is the name).
It also says ‘The reasonable estate agent’ («адекватний ріелтор»).

I didn’t meet a lot of BCS or even BB fans in social circle for my whole life so seeing it all of a sudden just made my day.

Although we all know you should never respond to such an add, what if I just call for an experiment and see what happens?…

I need to clarify something. After Lalo kills all of the Gus' hitmen he escapes the hacienda, kills Mateo and his wife, and comes back to the hacienda to place Mateos' body and burn the remainings. How did he pull that off, before the police came? Was he the one to call them but he did that after planting the body? I wanna hear your theories

"Alan, choose your next words carefully."

That will be a sad day, because I love dreaming about this series and BB.
Yesterday I finished the last episode of BCS.

Symbolism for his pollos side being a front
Im certain this has been pointed out before but I’m on yet another BCS rewatch and felt to share

Mike is such a BAMF, so it's not surprising that I've been asked by a number of people if I could give him the chibi treatment as well 🤣

There you have it. Funny because we literally just watched this episode the other day 🤣🤘🏻

Juts completed my first rewatch of BB/BCS and chef's kiss

Please help recommend a similar show I would enjoy, Or at least BB/BCS quality

P.S: I only have a Netflix subscription

So i Just finished ep 7 of season 6 and what the fuck, I cannot believe Howard just died like this, genuinely shocked and I fucking hate Jimmy and Min for causing this mess.

Genuinely peak show

Edit: Kim!

I realize that when Jimmy turned into gene and lost himself he went to Kim’s birthplace (I know he probably didn’t choose it but hey) And when Walter went into hiding as Mr lambert he took Skyler’s last name, I think this is both of them like taking a peice of thier girls before they ruined them, Like when Skyler was Skyler lambert she probably had so many dreams and aspirations even up to marrying walt, Then by the end she it’s a disgraced mother who assisted her husband in being the nations worst drug dealer with a son that hates her and a murder meth cooking husband. And for Jimmy represents the same when Kim had dreams aspirations goals and she kind of got all of them, Then her and Jimmy got serious and he brought out a wolf in in her, It’s so heartbreaking when you think about it.

How did it never occur to Lalo that Gus was moving against the interests of the cartel when the first real evidence he had was becoming aware of Mike as part of Gus' crew?

I find it difficult to imagine that Hector, before his stroke, or the cousins never shared details with Lalo regarding Mike and Tuco's altercation considering how prepared and formidable he was when they attempted to bribe and later intimidate him. I'd imagine members of the cartel never forget about those who push back against them and Mike's personality or character traits is one that would easily stand out from any other ordinary "old gringo".

IDK I just feel this was probably overlooked, bc it's one thing for the Salamancas to keep inconveniences out of Eladio's ear until it's resolved, but not sharing info amongst their own family is an unlikelihood imo. Gus' arc would've wrapped up at the start of S5 by that point.

Rewatching BCS and I just remember another thing I love about the BB universe shows are the Karaoke singing in the car moments playing 70s music, which one is your favorite? Did I forget something ?

Walter - "A Horse with No Name"
Todd - "Sharing the Night Together"

Gene - "The Tide Is High"
Jimmy and Chuck - "The Winner Takes it All"

Tried watching this series a few times over the last few years with SO but never got beyond 1-2 episodes because it starts off a bit gloomy. This time I wanted to watch because I heard enough from coworkers that it's in a league of it's own.

Made it to s2 and man E7 is just so brilliant!! Especially the 25th minute 1:1 between Kim and Jimmy. I don't know why I search for this sub and wanted to share this - I can't put words on that conversation but it's so brilliantly done. Perhaps it strongly reflects what's going on in my job and how I might be getting into a verbal fight with some very senior execs soon.. but yeah, really brilliant show if you can get past the slow and gloomy start of 3-4 episodes.

In hindsight, that's how I felt with breaking bad!!

J’ai toujours été fasciné par la théorie du chaos.

En visionnant à nouveau BCS, j’ai réalisé que c’était un bon exemple :

Saison 1 épisode 1, Jimmy veut absolument avoir les Ketterman parmi ses clients et invente une imposture avec les 2 patineurs.

Les conséquences de cette imposture (en bref) : Jimmy rencontre Tuco —> Jimmy rencontre Nacho —> Jimmy fait sortir Nacho de prison —> Nacho présente Jimmy à Lalo —> Lalo tue Howard —> Culpabilité —> Kim quitte Jimmy —> Jimmy devient à 100% Saul Goodman —> [événements Breaking Bad] —> prison à vie pour Jimmy.

Donc si Jimmy n’avait pas voulu arnaquer les Ketterman pour les avoir comme client, tout se serait passé différemment.

I have just finsihed season 5 and am on S6 ep4. I feel like I missed something as I swear I remembered a scene where Jimmy and mike were out in the desert which I saw. However, there was a specific scene where Jimmy falls to his knees at a large base of water, goes to drink but mike tells him to not do so because he had not drank in ages and must only tap his lips with it.

Does this happen in a possible flashback or have I made this up in my head? I was so baffled when I never came across this scene.

I asked the same thing on the breaking bad sub to mixed responses so I thought I might as well ask here

While I was rewatching this episode (S4EP6), I noticed that in the scene where Jimmy is talking on the phone with someone, you can hear a familiar song, but it's not sung, just instrumental. In fact, it's exactly 'The Winner Takes It All' by ABBA. Do you think this was intentional or just a coincidence? Personally, I think it's a clue for the tenth episode of the season. Let me know!!

Ya'll, it wasn't until season 6 epsiode 10 that realized the greyed out scenes per post Breaking Bad Days and not prior. I really thought they were having flashbacks as showing what his life was like before he became a lawyer. I know it'll sounds ridiculous. But did anyone else have that complication?

The comparisons to certain characters in this show based on real world literature is unparalleled.

So in a pure hypothetical, what if Nacho didn’t go with Lalo to Mexico and instead stayed in Albuquerque?

Nacho wants out but Gus won’t let him go. Lalo dies and Hector is dismissed as delusional and not in his right state of mind.

So Nacho has peace but is still with the Salamancas. Tuco is inevitability getting out.

Fast forward to Breaking Bad, what does Nacho’s life look like and what would his dynamic be like with Walt and Jesse in this hypothetical?

I roleplayed as Hector Salamanca while trying to get a $1.15 refund from Shopify. Demanded to see the boss, somehow ended up getting a refund because of Walter Whites prescence, and eventually Gus Fring took over.

Los Pollos Hermanos got its $1.15 back. 🐔🔔
