    When Jimmy says that Howard has had a "cleansing moment of clarity", this is the second time he is referencing the movie Network and relating Howard to the main character Howard Beale, a man who has a nervous breakdown after he is threatened to be fired after poor ratings. Jimmy did this before in the first episode of the series, when Howard is introduced.

    BCS has the best cinematography I've ever seen in a TV Show, and it legit gets better from here. Season 6 is the pinnacle of it imo. I love this show soooo much and am sad that it's over, but I've been watching it since the rumors of a "BB spinoff" were rumored. This is honestly one of if not THE best television show I've ever had the pleasure of watching. I can not wait until they get to season 6 sooo bad!

And your comment Eric about Vince Gilligan worried about being a “one-trick pony” are exactly right.

    I'm really disappointed we didn't get a Gus backstory show. I would've loved to see his time in Chile and how he got his reputation. How he gets connected to Madrigal. How he gets back in with the Cartel after they kill Max. And how he builds the empire so well (obviously with Madigral backing, but specifically how? Were they just dumping cash into his dumps to inflate his numbers? Or did he use the resources to legimately suprass the Salamanca empire?) The other half could tell Mike's backstory. You could use the common BCS/BB mirror concept, and show Mike building his empire as a corrupt cop, while Gus is building his as the chicken man. But something causes Mike to draw his line and back out, being on the take still, but with lines that Gus doesn't. Until Matty. But I would end Mike's story with his wife telling him she's pregnant. Such a happy, yet tragic ending because you know how that story ends.

    This and the last episode (I believe), is essentially where Breaking Bad basically starts. Crazy Eight turns into Hank & Gomey's informant but most importantly this is the $700k bust Hank makes just before Walts birthday party in BB s1e1. They see him ( Hank) on the news and Walt asks if that is a "normal bust". It would/could line up in the timeline (as Season 6 is now on its 1/2 season hiatus).
    There was a bit of time between Walt & Jesse's 1st encounter, 1st cook, killing of Crazy Eight and Emilio and there 2nd cook, hooking up with Tuco (who I guess would have to get out of jail soon in the BCS timeline) and when Blue Magic was devised and catches Gus's attention. Obviously the lab at the laundry needs completing aswell but alllll that is to say; it would be plausible for this to be the essential "cross over" episode or introduction right. 🤷🏽‍♀️ any thoughts?

    • @IgnisKhan
      @IgnisKhan ปีที่แล้ว

      Brace yourself: The second half of Season 6 started July 11 and the series finale aired August 15th. Also, I'm almost positive there's a few years left in the timeline before BB starts, but I can't tell you why without spoilers. But just for starters, Crazy 8 had been an informant for some time before s1e1, and Hank's big bust on tv was a meth *lab*, not just money.
