You think Howard Hamlin, the best-dressed and most type-A person on the show, had no part in any of the decor choices in his home?

I’m a little confused by when exactly Jimmy decided on the plan to get Kim into the courtroom so he could demonstrate to her that he was accepting responsibility for his crimes and for Chuck’s death. Were all the negotiations engineered with this in mind, or did he have a last-minute change of heart? It feels like he…

I thought her personality change was jarring and clumsy. You can take a new life and job but you’re still yourself. It felt like everyone (writers director etc) botched this part of the show. The writers got carried away in their Florida-woman stereotypes. “Wait I know! And she’ll only make sandwiches with white…

What was the reference? 

The problem is just that the writers used Cheryl Hamlin as whatever device they needed at the time, leaving a jarring continuity problem for viewers. When they wanted to humanize Howard they made it clear that at home he doted on a wife that they took pains to show didn’t love him anymore. But then when they needed…

Check it out.. Right down to the lampshades and table decorations.   There is just no way. 

I agree. For me it rang true that she’d taken on a McJob in Florida, but they went too far and turned her into a mocking cliche, both at home and work. Her job might change but her total personality wouldn’t. Felt like the writers got carried away here, to the detriment of the show.

I just wanted to illustrate what I see as irritating laziness on the writers’ part. They used Cheryl to show the problems in Howard’s life and build sympathy for him — Jimmy was determined to bring down a guy who at home was desperate to please a wife who had lost interest in their marriage. But six or more years…

OK but would you live in the house you shared six years later and not change a single piece of furniture or decoration?  

She still lives in their house, and not one piece of furniture or decoration has changed in the kitchen.   No, she hasn’t moved on, and it’s been six years. 

But wasn’t she still living in their house?  It was a strange choice to not have the new spouse around.  I took the wedding ring to be hers and Howard’s because no other sign of the new beau was to be found, I think. 

How would she think living in their house wearing their wedding ring six years later would reflect on her?  

But she appears to still be wearing his ring and living in their house, decorated exactly as it was six years later. That is entirely inconsistent with how she’d been pictured up until now.

I totally agree; she seemed to appear here only as a plot device. People are replying that “of course she might be devastated” but it’s not that she’s upset, it’s that after appearing to give up on their marriage here she is, several years later, still living in their house, not one piece of furniture has been…

So much good stuff in this episode, and two truly awful choices. 1) Cheryl who was basically ignoring Howard and had clearly fallen out of love with him is still living in their house and still apparently wearing their wedding ring all these years later? She seems to exist only as a plot device; the version of her who…

“Lalo was betting Jimmy—so lucky to be with a woman like Kim, to begin with, as Lalo tells him—will go for it. Jimmy flips the deal around, though, and convinces Lalo to hold him in the apartment with Howard’s dead body...”

I have to say, at this point I’m having trouble buying Kim’s motivation in trying to destroy Howard.  Jimmy I could believe, Howard treated him poorly and Jimmy could have easily lumped Howard and Chuck together in his mind, and found it easier to redirect all his Chuck anger at Howard.  It would make sense for Saul…

Anyone wonder if it’s just a coincidence that Kim grew up in Nebraska while Omaha is where Saul will end up post-Breaking-Bad? 

I’m guessing the company founders have to spend a lot of their time telling people that everyone laughed at Thomas Edison too.

This feels like something you’d come up with if you wanted to create a Pelaton-ish product and didn’t play basketball.  I can’t see how anything here would make me a better player, beyond having someone on the screen yelling at me to take another 20 shots and I already take a lot of shots.
