And it's here! Anyone catch the premiere last nite? Another episode tonight, its regular slot.

I enjoyed it, Odenkirk is great. I've read that the eps get better and better, so something to look forward to..

They're running it again tonite before the 2nd ep.. and again several times thru the week. And I'm pretty sure it'll be on-demand too. AMC, as h4c said.

They want to build an audience, so should be easy to catch.

It has started out a little slow but is getting more and more interesting. Hopefully, they are getting the back details to eventually move forward more excitingly. Not that it has been awful, far from it.
I do love the setting in New Mexico.

Yeah, it's gaining some strong momentum now.. can't wait to see where the elder law stuff goes .

Also very happy to see Mike's story unfold.. he's awesome.

Hope we don't have to wait a year for the next season.

Glad to hear a couple people say that. I planned on watching, forgot about it, taped a few, watched two, well one and a half since I couldn't finish the second, and promptly stopped trying.

I've kind of been meaning to pick a time and watch a string of a few in a row to see if I can get into it.

For me, the show grinds to a halt when they spend time with Saul's "love interest" from the big law firm. She's anything but compelling.

Yeah, Mike's story was interesting and he should have a big part in future episodes. I'm really waiting for some crazed lawyer shenanigans though. The sign scam was ok but...

I just watched the trailer again and it seems like there is not too much more. Not sure how many episodes.
The folks at imdb think this is a masterpiece with a rating over 9. That's absurd to me. I agree there is some subtle stuff and I love the SW desert end of the world setting but too me it has been average good not outstanding.

Has anyone seen the movie Whiplash? That is another where the imdb rating (8.6) too me seems way to high. I love jazz and was hoping to like it but it was way over the top and not too reality based.

I'm starting to think Rotten Tomatoes has better ratings than IMDB...for what that's worth...
