The natural progression of events prevents it from being episodic, or even the season being self-contained with a bunch of conclusions before the cliffhanger. Instead there's multiple threads both plot and character driven growing and evolving and old plots or faces you thought done? Guess not. True to the house-style of logical but inventive (seems an oxymoron, but here we are) writing co-creator Vince Gilligan spun in Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul practically perfects it, and even the reintroduction of characters from it's predecessor hardly earns this show the stale moniker of 'spin-off.' This is very much it's own show, confidently walking it's own path and fresh and exciting directions. Nothing ever really feels like finished business in Better Call Saul, unless you're dead. The relationship between Jimmy and Kim really flourishes in season two, with their respective actors getting some juicy, prime-rib cuts to sink their acting chops into, developing into a complex, stand-offish-yet-tender romance. Mike's stance on hard justice only leads to more trouble and difficulty, but remains an important break-up of the legal proceedings. Jimmy's brother Chuck's turmoil with his odd condition comes to a fore in a cruel way, leading to the final shot that'll leave you wishing you had a time machine just to fast-forward through the painful wait of a year until the next season begins, which is going to be one hell of a clash. It's funny that I complain about the year-long wait between seasons, but it'd be greater torture if you're the type who'd watch one episode a week. Just like season one, I blasted through this is a few days; and would've finished quicker if I didn't have to wait for today's season finale to drop. That's the state and quality of television these days. Just fantastic stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets better? For some light watching to fill the gaps - if you like Archer, Brickleberry, Bobs Burgers etc look up Ugly Americans (excellent), Crash Canyon & Border Town Each are only a season or 2 long, but similar vein. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of scheming, manipulating and character interplay Loving it. Good cast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Andrew Gold Donating Members 2,019 Member For: 9y 1d Gender: Male Location: Canberra ACT Posted 20/04/16 03:10 AM Share Posted 20/04/16 03:10 AM Yeah first few episodes of each season of 100 are a bit crap, but pretty gripping after that. Particularly season 2 - gets way more interesting than a bunch of juvenile delinquents running around getting killed. I'll check out a few of those suggestions!
