  1. I secretly hope they divorce so I can change the thread title to Leah Messer Sims Calvert Messer.
  2. His screen time seemed similar to Ryan or Gary the first show and season. They are the only intact couple so we see the Dad for more than one segment. Plus, he really loves the cameras. I'm sure he never expected to be shown treating the crew like an ass but I think that's closer to his true self.
  3. Sorry, being on The Soup is probably very good for them. I believe E! and MTV are both part of Viacomm but they have different promotion budgets. That clip likely generated extra revenue for the show.
  4. He just needed to patter a little bit. Not a specific thing, just a little bit more. It was too fast, the scene ended too quickly.
  5. I figured out my problem with the ending. Jimmy has spent the entire season talking. Over talking. Telling the stories with extra details or colorful little barbs. The dialogue was wrong. It was like Jimmy was reading Mike's lines. They needed 40-65 more seconds of exposition and it would have been fine.
  6. The black hat seems like a very on the nose Heisenberg reference.
  7. Mod sponsored side trip to talk about the US territories because it's not a widely talked about thing. Here's an explanation from wiki: (I'm sure the posters above knew all this, I'm just adding substance to Janelle's thread because she isn't going to do it.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territories_of_the_United_States
  8. Well, those shows aren't connected. I was comparing spinoffs.
  9. Breaking Bad is the best character study I have ever seen even. It is also emotional complex and draining. You can't passively watch it, it takes something from you. The way the plot moves is incredibly honest. Not everyone likes it. Some say its just a series of ticking clocks with no depth. I found an extraordinary amount of substance to the entire series. I watched it in first run and probably a 6 rewatches. The shows don't compare. Its like All in the Family and The Jeffersons. They Start/End together but that's it.
  10. Wonder if the parents have physical custody of Kaiser and that's why they were on the trip?
  11. I don't see drug issues with Ryan. Plenty of grown men lives in their Momma's pockets. He likely sucks with money, doesn't make a ton, and has no clue how to do without.
  12. Honestly, I think Culinary School = Affordable Plastic Surgery. I never think she enrolled.
  13. I wish they'd round them all up and put them on a challenge.
  14. Its a weak argument - Jimmy as rapist. I'd ask you to prove that sex occurred and that consent was based on Kevin Costner. Feels like trolling to me, no need to characterize another forum that way though.
  15. Cate drives because Tyler wants to talk to the camera. He doesn't have any license issues that have been published and his mother told him to stop buying cars, suggesting he has several.
  16. I have a feeling Farrah is going to be one 10 minute segment in the finale. Part of me believes Farrah's lawyer found a way to insist she appears on the show.
  17. Did any of the ABQ nazi's survive? I'm cool with connections and avenging a homie, I just can't recall if anyone survived dues ex machina gun?
  18. It really depends. Each place has a range of housing that could make it a difficult choice between the two. As far as prestige, its really the same. Popularity mildly shifts between the two but they're both amazing places. Neither are Rye, NY though... And thats the basic deal with NYC, whatever you have, there's a better option, and everyone knows about it. Someone will always have a better beach house, bigger boat, wider view of the park. You basically spend a few million so that anyone you know can ask why you didn't pick some harmless equivalent option.
  19. So, Chuck backs Jimmy into a corner, insisting on what Jimmy's career could be and also insisting on being waited on, and it's Jimmy's fault he broke? That proves Chuck right? Jimmy didn't break, he rejected Chuck. He rejected the advice, the direction, all of it. He realized Chuck didn't have any answers or magic about living, he just had resources. This episode went out of it's way to scream "Slipping Jimmy was a goof, not some mastermind, he pooped in a sunroof!" It's not either Chuck or Jimmy. They aren't any different. They manifest their damage in different ways. Chuck retreats and controls, Jimmy roles plays other people. Its transparent escapism. Its unfair to dismiss Jimmy's decade of service to himself and Chuck by thinking the first chance Jimmy got he ran home. Jimmy figured out his brother and mentor was a fraud, so he went searching for something else. He left, willingly and enthusiastically, after a week. Chuck pretended to be a normal lawyer for a day, if it was a week would Chuck be cured and permanently a normal lawyer? Jimmy doesn't have to be reduced to A or B. He's the complex lead of the show.
  20. I wonder if we gave an older Bulgarian and Farrah an essay test who would pass? Lets assume the Bulgarian is using google translator to answer in english and the subject is "Who Loves Farrah the Most?" My money is on the Bulgarian.
  21. Leah's speech at the dinner table about Kristen was upsetting. Mostly because Leah parrots Amber's mannerisms, the squinty eyes, the feigned shock. We're 11 years away from the kids getting their own show.
  22. I'll be the jerk here, I like red delicious apples. Have 3 of em now. So what.
  23. Many, many murders including two DEA agents. Saul never returns to ABQ.
  24. Kim would have to already be ex-wife #2. Jimmy mentions his mother passed a few years ago in the finale. That's the only way Jimmy gets a step-dad. Edit: I just realized the step father could still exist past the mother's demise and feel silly.
