    to answer the pre-spoiler question, I think they made him out to be a sympathetic character on purpose. that seems to be the trend with these types of shows now. there is no black hat or white hat anymore. look at Dexter, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, etc. They are all conflicted in their own ways, commit both heinous acts but also act in heroic ways other times.

    I did find it interesting that a drug lord who can justify killing innocent women and children would "let" his wife talk to him in any way out of turn like that. I mean, my impression (probably through past movies and tv shows, mind you) is that these types are usually the "women and children should be seen and not heard" types, and rarely, if ever, show a vulnerability to his spouse, or are really a family man who plays with his kids at all. But hey, maybe he was like that. Who knows.

    Yeah, I do agree that they often do that with these kind of shows. I guess a lot of this also comes out of the fact that the writer and creator was on Fresh Air and he talk about how the dude was a monster. He didn't seem to have an ounce of sympathy for the guy, then this season, it kinda shows a softer side to him that you alluded to.

    Just started Season 2. I was wondering why the Netflix preview picture thing doesn't even have a picture of Pablo but instead a few people who aren't even in the show yet, or at least to my knowledge...

    Then some people at work were telling me they think the 3rd season isn't as good as the first two but they didn't tell me why to avoid any spoilers.

    So I'm talking to my brother about this (he's one of the one's who told me to get into the show in the first place) and he goes "Yeah, well, they probably just don't like the third one as much because Pablo isn't in it anymore."

    That SON OF A BITCH. I should've just punched him square in the jaw. Fuck.

    The 3rd season blows the other 2 away. Every episode is like it's own movie. Very well done.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Nice. For what it's worth, my brother said something similar.
