    After the last show I don't think he's faking any more.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Seems to me that Chuck is faking the issue, and totally forgot about it in the course of working the Case.
    You just know that the HMM law firm is gonna somehow sweep this case from underneath their feet.

    i don't think he's faking it. I think it's just all in his head though.
    I think someone with Chuck's affliction likely suffers from a mental disorder and not a physical one (which doesn't make it any less real, but would make it more realistic). If this were the case, if his mind were drifting elsewhere, a strong enough distraction would help him forget about his affliction and temporarily 'beat it'. When his head's back on earth though, he remembers who he is, what he fears, and what he's around, and is crippled again.

    watching the replay now. i think that was the same parking lot that was in breaking bad where walt planted a bomb on Gus' car. Funny when mike asked the big dude if he wanted a gun after beating the shit out of the other guy and he ran away.

    Great episode. The downfall of Jimmy is officially underway......
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Yeah, looks like everyone turned on Jimmy. I wonder what Howard said to Kim though.

    I'm guessing Howard told her that it was Chuck who didn't want Jimmy involved.

    The thing I don't get is why can't Jimmy just take this case to another law firm? I get that he wanted to work with his brother, but since it's clear that won't be happening, why wouldn't he just take the case somewhere else so he can be involved in it??

    I would say that Jimmy is a complete unknown in the legal world. It sort of looks like HHM is the only big firm in town.

    You could see this coming when Chuck found out Jimmy passed the exam.

    I read this tidbit in Sepinwall's review. Nacho's full name is Ignacio per what Mike said in the minivan. In the BB episode where Saul first appears and Walt/Jesse have Saul out in the desert, Saul screams out "It wasn't me, it was Ignacio!" So obviously Saul will get involved in some serious shit with Nacho eventually.

    I'll admit, I was a little bit skeptical about this show. Just didn't think the character could carry his own show, despite being fantastic in breaking bad. I have to say the show is growing on me though. Definitely has a lot of potential

    Ugh....that was one the longest, most boring hours of television I've ever sat through. A total filler episode as the season finale. Come on, man. Love the show and like any show/band/sports team you love you'll find something you don't like. But man, I'm shocked this was the season finale. Oh well. I like his declaration at the very end and look forward to see him be more Saul and less Jimmy. But man oh man, I hated this episode.

    Watching it now. The bingo scene is painful to watch. Hence, me playing with my phone. Snooze fest.

    there was some lagging moments and yeah it def. wasn't the best finale, but wasn't too bad. I didn't really think there was gonna be a huge/shocking finale though.

    I went through a couple of the breaking bad episodes with saul in them. It's funny to hear him say "I convinced a woman once I was Kevin costner!"
