That Desert Episode was Breathless. The only thing I guessed was who the Shooter was.
And this latest episode in the Apartment was equally Breathless.

No one watching this? I was not a BB fan but a BCS one, and identified the reason why because BCS had more characters I could root for and be emotionally invested in. I didn’t much care for Walt. I hate Skylar. I certainly didn’t give a shit that they thought well of eachother. Jesse was blah. In contrast I like Saul, I love Kim, and I am praying for them to stay together.
I am barely breathing while watching because I can’t bear to see the outcome for Nacho, who I want more than anything to have a happy ending like Jesse (who I would have been fine with dying). Sadly I think most shows and books now seem to think that sad endings gets them more credibility. I wish Harry Potter, GOT, BCS etc realised that once you’re good you’re good. And you CAN actually give out a bit of happiness and wins to the audience and your characters without selling out.
Not yet able to watch ahead as I can’t take the sadness which I’m pretty sure they went for. Ugh I hate that the show runners seem to think it’s either a choice of good and sad, or feel good and silly (eg This Is Us) which I can’t then watch for quality reasons. I feel there used to be a lot of GOOD stuff made that didn’t break my heart with the outcomes.

I am watching BCS on Netflix, which is a season behind. When the new season comes out, Netflix releases the previous one, so I just tore through the next-to-the-last season. In fact, I was not paying attention to which episode I was on and was shocked that I'd just finished the season and was going to have to wait AGAIN. It went by so fast!
I was a Breaking Bad fan but agree that BCS is a more enjoyable show. I'm going to be sad for it to end. I'm really curious about what happens to Kim since she is never mentioned in Breaking Bad (that I remember). I was reading a BCS wiki and accidentally learned about Nacho's storyline beyond where I am now in the series.

prisma where did you learn up to? I hope Michael Mando gets cast in many projects. He hadn’t really done much before BCS, but I think he was a big find. Tony Dalton is chilling, and the charm makes it even more so. Crazy that Hollywood has to many A listers that just don’t make sense there, Timothee Chalamet, Channing Tatum, bland/unattractive af to me, yet there are these actors like Dalton and Mando only getting a big break after 40, just brimming with talent, charm, and X factor looks. Wish they both could have had some romances, I don’t mean a full on romantic arc as it’s not that kind of show but just something to show that side of them, the way blah Jesse had.

Ridha, the last episode I saw (spoiler below) {Spoiler}was where Jimmy and Kim are relieved because they assume Lalo is dead, but the audience has just watched him escape the assassination attempt. However, what I read about Nacho was clearly from the following season and there was speculation about what happens to Kim based on things that are more recent than what I've watched. I really don't want to spoil myself so I just backed away from all commentary. My problem is that I forget which characters we met in Breaking Bad and which were exclusive to BCS, which is why I was looking up Nacho. Plus I think both Michael Mando and Tony Dalton are really great performers and pretty hunky so I was vetting them for positions as my imaginary boyfriend.
