    But I just think it would be a bit boring.

    I think they’ll come up with something more exciting….not a slow whimpering “death.”

    Like the last two episodes? LOL

    So, Marion has this laptop she never uses hanging around, and Gene decides that, for kicks, he'll show her how to use it. It works just as well for news stories as it does for cat videos.

    Jeff just bought her the laptop as a gift with some of his ill gotten money from the mall theft.

    Putting tape over the door frame only works on the door knob/spring locks not on a dead bolt.  You cannot lock a deadbolt from outside without a key. You can open a spring lock with a credit cart/driver's license.   Where did Gene get all of his information on these wealthy Omahians? All of them lived alone with  no alarm system or dogs?  They all went to the same bar and got s----faced drunk on a regular basis while taking to a stranger?

    And that all there financial docs were right there in the house (instead of an office) where this obvious doofus could easily/quickly find them...

    Could someone tell me where I know this bar patron from?  The actor looks very familiar.  I'd go back to the credits but I don't want to go back to the beginning. 

    He reminds me of Russell Dalrymple, "The President of NBC" who was in love with Elain on Seinfeld...

    Kind of interesting thing about MUSIC in this regard.

    Many kids these days are listening to the stuff I listened to when I was 10, 12, 16 years old.

    I guarantee I was not listening to 1920’s and 1930’s music when I was a teenager.

    Lets see LL...I would guess your music genre back then was either Death Metal or Horror Punk? Possibly Gangster Rap?  😃

    ONE EPISODE

    I thought PIMENTO, since it has some cool fisticuffs that would appeal to a young man, and I don’t think it gives away too much of anything. Plus, as a BB alum, he’s familiar with Mike.

    That is def one of my favorites...also .much later in the series its Bagman, even watching one from last season may get him to back up and do an all weekend marathon?

    I'm sure someone at some time has addressed this but I must have missed it.   At one point in "Breaking Bad," as Saul is lamenting the grim future awaiting him, he says, "I'll probably end up managing a Cinnabon in Nebraska."  He said it like it was the worst possible fate he could imagine, not like it was an actual plan.   So, how is it that Saul wound up actually managing a Cinnabon in Nebraska?   What are the odds that the vacuum cleaner guy would set him up with the exact situation he envisioned in a moment of despair?

    Is the vacuum cleaner guy the Devil?

    Maybe the Gene scenes are in reality Saul dreaming and that's why they are in B&W?

    Re: Carol Burnett. It's like when I see Albert Brooks playing a gangster (Drive) or an attorney (A Most Violent Year). I'm not expecting him at any moment to go into the West Coast Woody shtick for which he is most famous, because he's a solid character actor apart from that.

    I think they just wrote a part for a woman of a certain age, Burnett was right for it, and she agreed to do it. Marion could have been played by some other actress in her eighties who has a lower profile or is more known for drama, but Burnett's performance was quite good, and that's what matters most to me. I believed she was this woman in Omaha with a son who drives a cab. 

    I think Shirley MacLaine would have killed it as Marion...

  10. I had the idea of checking each actors IMDb page to see who is credited in up coming episodes.

    Carol Burnett (Marion), Pat Healy (the "new" Jeff) and Walter & Jessie are all credited for the next show 06/11.

    Walter is credited also 06/12 and the finale 06/13.

    Kim is credited in the last three episodes (shes wasn't credited in Nippy) 

    da da da dum duuunnnnn

    Here is a pretty good analysis of the episode.  He makes some observations that match mine.  

    He also has good reviews of Platoon and Full Metal Jacket, for those who like war movies.  

    Def some good observations there, thanks.

    BTW loved Full Metal Jacket, well at least the first half of it.
