I don't want the show to last beyond the point where there's story left to tell, but my assumption is that once he properly becomes Saul Goodman is around the time the show will hurdle forward to the Cinnabon future.

It's not the guy from the wanted poster, but it's something better: he's one of Old Joe's magnet-making buddies from episode 501 of Breaking Bad. (Not making this up…confirmed on the Insider Podcast.)

Are you sure he's heavier in Breaking Bad? He's always been thin, I thought. They're doing wonders with the more ponderous wig and the make-up though.

He directed the first two episodes, and I imagine the sleek aesthetic of the show essentially comes from him, so his influence remains in that regard…but yeah, I don't think he remained a very active participant.

It's happened. The Season 5 premiere, "Live Free or Die," was a bit shorter than the norm.

I will never understand how you fuck up a John Malkovich As Blackbeard TV show. Even the bad version of that show should have been entertaining in a heedlessly bonkers way. But to make it boring is inexcusable.

Just tell me that Ian Gelder is back as Kevan Lannister and hasn't been written out.

The Cynthia Nixon character was meant to be Paul[a] Krendler, but because that character is first referenced in Silence of the Lambs, they could not use the name, and settled for an anagram. It'll be interesting to see if they actually use her for the Krendler role when they get to the "Hannibal" (the novel) section…
