I’m not sure he was ever actually considering suicide. The only reason he visited that particular drug dealer was because of his connection to Mobley’s brother. So despite all of the narration and the dramatic sit on the beach, he was probably planning on bringing the bag to Mobley’s brother the entire time to…

dramatic effect?

Oh wait, the guy in the video said I would say that and explains why I’m a dummy for saying that. I guess he got me.

Uhhh, I think folks are taking CinemaSins a little too seriously. They don’t even take themselves that seriously.

I’m finding this season frustrating in the way it reveals that the writers just don’t seem to have had any plan for what was to come after Season 1 or 2. The formula that emerges here is just one sign. Killing off Joanna Wellick served no other purpose, I think, than to show that the writers had no idea what her…

Brooks’ is the most incoherent summary of the Populist/Progressive movements that I have read in a long time.

I don’t usually do this—because really there is enough people complaining about something as unimportant as a pop-culture website—but I have to say the decision to move AVClub to Kinja is misguided. Sites like Deadspin, which I’ve also read for years, built its content around this style of a site. AVClub has spent…

I like this reading. I'd add that Chuck has defeated Howard and Jimmy but at the expense of being completely alienated from everyone and his life's passion, the law. It would have been good to have seen more background as to how and why his mental state deteriorated in the first place. The flashback scene with his…

This is probably already in another thread, but I can't scan 1000 comments right now so: What is it exactly that triggers Chuck's slide into oblivion? Are we to see it as the ultimate terrible impact of Jimmy showing up at his house? Is Jimmy's presence so toxic that it immediately reverses Chuck's improvement? Or is…

Yeah, I was surprised that this got no mention in the review. I'm trying to figure out if it winds up being more than a running gag, considering how the show likes to delve into the supernatural at times. Or is this some key to Gloria's character that I'm just not smart enough to figure out?

Donna—This is a masterful piece of writing. Thank you for making this show that much more enjoyable. That is all.

"Before his partner is killed before his eyes, before he declares war on the cartel, before the underground meth labs, the torture, the murder, he’s a star earner in the Eladio organization."

"Hardly anything of note happens here and it’s riveting nonetheless…"

Victory Prima Pils for the win.

What about the kid who can't read yet? Those pictures are not particularly helpful.

I can't tell if the reference to Justin Roberts here is an insult to him or not, but his albums are really the best kid-friendly pop-rock that you will find out there. I don't even call Robert's work "children's music," lest people lump him in with the Wiggles or something. His songs are way more interesting and…

Unfortunately, I think the fumbling is more a matter of the writers not having a clear sense where they want the story to go and less a comment on life under fascism.

I suspect the reviewer here has spent more time thinking about the logistics of the alternate reality mechanism of this show than the writers have.

You can watch the entire thing and still not know what it is about. I think if you ask the writers to say what it is about in a sentence they would come up empty. It is not even clear by the final stretch of the second season (I have yet to watch the finale) what the point of the alternate reality setting is in a show…

My two favorite bands of the 1990s! Wait, are you me commenting from a parallel universe?
