Is it just me or are people turning on Kim and Jimmy much faster then they turned on Walter?

Howard had a big part in allowing all that to happen by playing along with Chuck’s desires for both Jimmy and Kim’s careers. Of course they could have just moved on with their lives, but Howard saw all the same signs with Chuck’s mental state and really didn’t properly confront him about it until it was way too late.

It’s all well and fine to say that Howard realized his mistakes, offered an olive branch to Jimmy last season, etc… However Jimmy and Kim already made up their minds about Howard before any of that. Arguably the point the show is trying to make is that they made up their minds about the idea of a man like Howard Hamlin before either of them even met him.

Also i dont think its fair at all to say they don’t care about Chuck’s death… One of the most recurring arcs of this series is about Jimmy contemplating that (unhealthily, but still). They didn’t want Howard to die either, given that the final 6 episodes are presumably about why Kim and Jimmy aren’t together in the future, it seems it will remain a tragedy they never planned for

godbottle · 2022-05-25T15:09:12+00:00

im shocked at how little anyone is blaming Mike for telling Kim his guys were watching her, then pulling them off after he knew Lalo was in the area (at least that seems to be the case). pretty stupid of him and Kim will probably be pretty fucked up about that once the dust settles

godbottle · 2022-05-24T19:39:19+00:00

its not, it already has 6k ratings lol and is still a 9.9. The other highest rated episodes dont have that many more ratings (around 15k each for Chicanery, Bagman, Bad Choice Road, & Rock and Hard Place, all at a 9.7) so i think this has a good chance of at least holding to a 9.8 over them

godbottle · 2022-05-23T23:06:46+00:00

i think they mean there hasn’t been much surrounding Howard’s story that foreshadows death in particular. unlike with Chuck where it was very deliberately telegraphed. people are just jumping to death as a theory because its simple and ends Howard’s story. however it’s not really necessary because all that needs to happen is for the Sandpiper case to be settled, he wouldnt really have any theoretical connections to the story in Breaking Bad that would need to be explained away by him dying

godbottle · 2022-05-18T14:12:55+00:00

the ones u/plzsnitskyreturn listed above are a great start. Close-Up in particular is a personal favorite. Widely considered an all time classic.

You write this comment like he’s just another DNC grifter from some other state here to make money off Mitch and Rand’s bad reputation. But the reality is he’s lived his whole life here and knows the community better than the last Dem who ran for Senate, who was a white centrist and got clobbered anyway. Charles has every right to run for office in the state he calls his home. In fact, one might argue ties to the local community, or rather lack thereof, is one of the biggest problems facing how many representatives to Congress govern these days. Also the name of his organization/slogan is and has been “Hood to the Holler” so he definitely is aware of how his blackness affects him politically and has a vision for how to offer ideas that bring people of all backgrounds together. Rand is more popular than Mitch, so it still likely won’t succeed, but either way your comment is ignorant of how the campaign is actually being run

people complained a bunch about the plot not moving fast enough at this point when season 5 was airing too. Episodes 4 and 5 are the lowest rated of that season just like this season. Of course it all culminated in 3 of the most acclaimed episodes of the entire show to end the season so we really should just stop worrying and trust the process that really hasnt let us down once in almost 15 years on the air between the 2 shows

godbottle · 2022-05-03T12:13:57+00:00

Gotta be jail or vaccuum guy. In season 5 Jimmy more or less tells Mike outright he’d kill himself if Kim died. Don’t really see how that dynamic would be able to play itself out as “He processes his grief by becoming even more Saul Goodman”. Not to mention as you’ve just said, the writers played that card once already, so they’re probably not going to do it again for the core relationship holding up the entire show.

godbottle · 2022-05-02T18:29:42+00:00

maybe someone who knows more about the inner workings of TV production deals can clarify, but it seems to be more complicated than that. Severance started at Ben Stiller’s production company, but Apple was attached before filming started along with another production company that has produced some other shows for Apple. For Arcane, by all accounts Netflix had no input besides hosting the finished episodes. It was already in full production for a couple years by the time they picked it up. And Riot definitely doesn’t need any of Netflix’s money to keep making it.

godbottle · 2022-04-28T21:45:30+00:00

it doesnt mean they “can’t” make MK season 2, no one would stop them lol. Big Little Lies competed at the Emmys as a Limited Series before getting a second season. It just means season 2 would have to move over to Drama Series if it ever happens.

I work in aircraft parts manufacturing and that’s really not the problem. Nobody wants to be blamed for an accident like this so tight specs are pretty vigorously adhered to. Obviously there are bad actors in every industry and things happen, especially when there’s a large number of different suppliers for all the parts that go into something like a 737, but to imply there’s no due diligence on the part of Boeing or Airbus or even the suppliers themselves before something gets approved for use on a plane, it just isn’t how it works.

godbottle · 2022-02-03T21:57:08+00:00

Sarah Jarosz’s version of Gnarls Barkley Crazy at the 2014 Bluegrass situation superjam was a pretty amazing moment.

godbottle · 2022-01-27T20:29:53+00:00

I’ve been reading monthly since the early days and honestly to my memory the return issues for each run have always been pretty lowkey with the high emotional stakes coming later. The setup is all here in this issue so I’m not worried

godbottle · 2022-01-12T02:28:00+00:00

I mean, several directors have had their style toned down by the MCU under Feige. Captain Marvel comes to mind. Taika got his through for Ragnarok somehow though.

godbottle · 2022-01-11T19:31:09+00:00

I mean, the biggest glow ups here (Haim, Twenty One Pilots, Lord Huron, Isbell) weren’t exactly nobodies in 2013 either. This is simply a quality lineup top to bottom. Just something festivals can’t afford anymore

godbottle · 2022-01-11T17:46:02+00:00

the new Japanese Breakfast tour this year was incredible, you got nothing to worry about

godbottle · 2022-01-11T13:15:43+00:00

Well, the album release and Billy Strings collab did raise her profile quite considerably and very quickly. And she’s one of the most exceptional live acts in any genre right now, which i think the industry is taking note of (her current tour is selling out across the country). If she is at Roo though, I’ll see you there!! 💜

godbottle · 2022-01-11T10:07:11+00:00

it’s already been gone for years. be glad we at least got Sierra Ferrell if this is real. Telluride is the same weekend so most of the top acts are there instead.

godbottle · 2022-01-05T19:07:44+00:00

It was really just concessions/water day 1, which they then figured out day 2. Keeneland is a great venue for a festival and all the performances that weekend were top notch. Definitely going again if the lineup is as good as it was last year

godbottle · 2022-01-03T22:21:04+00:00

From a “business point of view” Roo books the Opry because it’s a world famous connection to Nashville. It’s definitely attractive for ticket sales just not to you. Doubt they’ll rid of it soon.

godbottle · 2021-12-30T16:10:35+00:00

Its not not misogyny, but I do think a big part of it also is that we are largely conditioned as a society to view romantic and non-romantic relationships through different lenses. Despite the romantic innuendo with Tom and Greg, Tom is still mainly just Greg’s boss and the viewer is under no/very little assumption that he should be loving/respecting Greg in the same way that they expect the woman he married to love and respect him. It’s sad, but toxicity in the workplace is pretty normalized really.

godbottle · 2021-12-21T13:27:24+00:00

You are thinking of the insider podcast. In the episode for the season 4 finale they go into a pretty lengthy story about how they got to use ABBA and how the band is very selective and hands on with how their music gets used in other media

godbottle · 2021-12-15T22:25:15+00:00

This is consistently the worst take on this subreddit. When has she been uncomfortable with Jimmy’s schemes, like once with the squat cobbler thing? Every other time she has consistently engaged with him and even added her own flair to go even deeper with the complexity and risk level of the scam. If she was really done with Jimmy she wouldnt have lasted 5 seconds in that scene with Lalo instead she told him off 10x harder than Jimmy was willing to.

godbottle · 2021-12-07T21:39:44+00:00

Fair point. I think it getting out further is still a ways away though. Gerri hasn’t even spoken with either Roman or Logan about it yet.

godbottle · 2021-12-07T20:23:49+00:00

How can you be at a loss for how the company’s general counsel for years would know better how to handle a scandal than somehow who just joined it maybe a couple months ago? Even if said scandal involves herself. The company is so corrupt and Gerri’s seen it through so much of that, that the actually unbelievable part here is how Logan doesn’t view Gerri as bulletproof especially with another larger sexual harassment scandal already going on.
