Better Call Saul is the best shot, edited, scored, acted and written TV show in human history. Breaking Bad obviously spells out Walter’s male pride inferiority complex motivated genuinely disgusting actions and yet will always have the detritus of media illiterate dipshits who think Walter White is a hero and the other misogynist mongrels that think Skylar is somehow an antagonist and not a victim. BCS however strikes perfect moral grey areas with no easy answers about heroes and villains. A show is only as good as its fans. Breaking Bad is a near perfect drama, BCS feels more real and has notes of genuine tenderness missing in the sickly yellow world of Breaking Bad.

I like them both as well, but still BB more because nothing seems forced in BB. In BCS there were a LOT of forced retcon scenes that didn't _really_ need to happen. For example: Lalo telling Hector how he got the bell. Holy exposition, Batman. Very cringe and forced. The bit with Nacho being a run of the mill guy who suddenly turns into a commando, was just a way to shoehorn some action into an otherwise tame story.

@@Connection-Lost Idiotic criticism; Lalo telling Hector about the bell was not exposition for the audience’s sake it was a character moment monologue to tell you the dynamics of their relationship. Stop pretending to be film literate, you’re not fooling anyone Nacho was Tuco’s leash holder, a foil for Mike. He was not a run of the mill guy turned commando. Almost everything in BCS is perfectly paced and orchestrated; you’re talking out of your ass because you like edgy Walter White phonk edits.

@@sbraypaynt I agree that BCS is exceptional, but not so much that Nacho is a foil to Mike. I saw Nacho as Southwest Matty - Mike's son 2.0 and Mike's challenge throughout the entire series. When Mike sets up Tuco he brings Nacho deeper into the 'game.' This makes Nacho, who was previously insulated from the boss, more visible. Subsequently, it endangers Nacho's father, leads to the attempted murder of Salamanca which then makes Nacho another of Fringe's 'dogs on a leash.' It's the same circle Mike traveled with his own son. Mike's conflict is his perception of himself. Secretly he knows what he is - when he holds the same sniper rifle of the same type he used in vietnam he says, 'The wood warped terribly in that jungle. Someone should of thought of that.' He's the wood, but to survive he has to pretend to be a law abiding, honorable, man. He arrives out west believing he is different from the police officers he killed who had killed his son. "They didn't have to do it. They were scared." That's the lie. They did have to do it because that is the life they chose and because people like them have to constantly kill anyone who can expose them for what they are. He is deluded and all of BCS confronts Mike with his delusion. Season by season we see Mike come face to face with the truth - when the german architect runs, Mike kills him over trust (just as the police killed his son over trust). When Mike has a chance to save Nacho, which he could have done by killing Fring at any time, he doesn't and when he goes to tell Nacho's father, the illusion is stripped away. Nacho's father is Mike's foil - a real father who tells Mike what he is - a gangster and a murderer. He is no different from the men who killed his son and he never will be. He is not a real father. He is not good. He is not just or moral. Mike is a criminal and a murderer in the employ of a drug kingpin. It takes a real father who had a genuine concern for his son to confront Mike with what he is because that's what a father does - confront you with reality. The genius of BCS is that Banks is such a lovable guy it hides the revelation from the audience in the same way that Mike hides himself from himself. It's possible to watch the entire series and never really see what Mike truly is.

Her initial response is a natural, human warm read. But her take on Kim as a character being a little forced and controlled is what you see on the show. THAT'S why it feels different. So, if anything, she's a much better actress than you give her credit for, because Kim is so unlike her.

@@DLWalkerActor sorry I should be more clear. I don’t mean this performance is better than her own performance in the show. I mean this table read performance is better than 90% of what you see in other TV

Honestly, I mean, he didn’t really do anything.
