      For whatever, surely money-related reason, they never aknowledged BCS as Emmy-worthy, so why should that now, when all the hype has gone cold, will go any different.

      For sure. It’s crazy because Banks was a total day player before that, dropping in for an episode or two on various shows but never getting a solid role. His appearance as the “cleaner” in Season 2 of BB was going to follow that trend but they called him back to return for season 3 since he crushed it. Wonderful actor, awesome dude. I love it when under utilized actors get to shine.

Mike is pure gold! Especially in BCS and especially with him nearly tearing up while speaking to Stacy with the "THIS IS BETWEEN ME AND MY SON".

    I love his honesty about past failures and missed opportunities. Most "celebrities" you get the impression they literally never had a bad day in their lives.
    Its also really telling that he talks about how he was a minor part of something big at SNL without trying to spin it in to some kind of LinkedIn massacre of modesty.
    Huge respect. He deserves his success. Him and Jonathan Banks killed it in BTL. They both deserved Emmy's. Jonathan in "Five-O" deserved an Emmy for that episode alone.

    He was fantastic as Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad, but his performance as Jimmy McGill slowly transforming into Saul Goodman in Better Call Saul was so amazing that I will watch any movie or show he’s in. Generational performance, it’s the Television Academy’s loss to never honor him with an Emmy.

    I'm a cinephile and my love of films started when I was 12. I remember it clearly, in my small town you did what everyone did, ate what everyone ate, listened to the music everyone listened to, and watched only the movies being hyped at any given moment. But, one day when I was 12, I spotted a DVD on the shelf of our local movie rental place.
    It had box-art similar to a New Yorker cartoon and this interesting font that was like the neurotic offspring of papyrus and comic sans, as well as a stupidly simple title: Melvin Goes to Dinner. It was mesmorizing, I knew I needed to rent it. The film followed a bunch of friends having a fancy dinner together and the dissolution of a relationship.
    That was the first independent film I ever saw and started my life of independent films. Fast forward almost 2 decades. My favourite TV show, Better Call Saul is just about to stick the landing with it's third-to-last episode and something makes me think of Melvin goes to Dinner. I look up the film on iMDB and it turns out it was directed by Bob Odenkirk.

    This may or may not be an uncommon opinion, but I don't think Breaking Bad or Better Call Saul would be as amazing as it was without Mike. To think such an important character in both shows was "invented" is an amazing thing to think about.
