That was also pretty much a recurring sketch, with "mom animal" substituted in for the "mom haircut" of the original from last season's Mother's Day episode:

Yeah, her previous Spicer appearances seemed like they were there in part to paper over episodes where Baldwin wasn't available.

And, this being SNL, the desk pieces can never change which anchor they interact with because all recurring appearances must rigidly adhere the the original formula with only different punchlines slotted in, under penalty of torture

You can get a halfway decent camper used and do that for like half a grand. Or just get a tent.

They also always seem to land on one that is like 100k over their budget, yet are somehow fine with that

They also completely overlook mentioning that the prevalence of yellow in cartoons might have something to do with the heavy use of yellow in old-school printed comics, which was due to the limitations of the four-color printing process used at the time.

Yeah, all I could think was that you could make a list a mile long of characters with any of the primary or secondary colors. The fact that their list devolves so quickly into "Flounder from The Little Mermaid" levels of minor-ness is kind of evidence against their argument.

Yeah, it's just odd because if you're a BrBa fan, you almost certainly already guessed that it'd be Gus Fring that was tailing Mike (he works for Gus when we meet him, after all), and if you haven't seen BrBa, you don't know who Gus is so it wouldn't matter. The show was clearly trying to elicit an "Oh

I think it's a pretty safe bet that he won't be formally disbarred, but just strike a deal with Chuck that he'll stop using the family name in exchange for not taking the tape thing to court.

He's also a great antagonist (I won't go so far as to call him a "villain") in that he legitimately believes he's doing the right thing. Chuck thinks he's doing the world a service by getting Jimmy disbarred.

So far most of the Breaking Bad cameos haven't done a lot for me, but I am really looking forward to Huell showing up.

I'm pretty sure anybody who doesn't think Walt is the worst villain in the Breaking Bad universe has completely missed the point.

I think it's more about Chuck/Howard not wanting him to use the McGill name for his practice (since it reflects poorly on HHM's use of the same name), not that he's supposed to be in hiding as Saul or something.

I didn't mind the slow reveal of Gus in the restaurant (since there was something else happening in the foreground anyway), but I thought the slow reveal of the Los Pollos Hermanos sign when Mike first tailed the guy there was a little silly, since it has no significance at this point in Better Call Saul.

Like the review here, I also kind of missed that Chuck's little sly smirk and casually tossing the tongs after Ernie "accidentally" heard the tape were signals that it was all part of Chuck's plan (though it seemed obvious after my wife pointed it out).

That really bugged me because it seems like common knowledge that all prescriptions have imprints and they could have just looked at a reference book.

I did really like the way, in the opening scene, that Dustin subtly reworded his therapist's "you are entitled to happiness" to "yeah, I'm entitled to a relationship with Mikey!" Pretty shitty therapist to not call him out on that shit, though.

Yeah, Gus is sort of garden-variety selfish and a little condescending, and definitely not equipped to deal with someone who has problems of the magnitude that Mickey does, but he doesn't, like, need a therapist in the same way she clearly does.

I feel like it's inevitable that Gus is going to find out early in Season 3 though, right? I doubt that Mickey will ultimately get away as cleanly as it seems like she has here (after all, Bertie is a horrible liar).

I did think it was weird that the show never bothered to clear up whether the offer to come to New York was ever legitimately on the table.
