Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler as written by Gould/Gilligan writing room has become one of the more enigmatic female characters I’ve seen portrayed - she is such a great character, her motivations are sometimes opaque and yet always believably depicted - tonight was a rare example of Kim expressing her motivation via…
Kim accepts that she’s in the game now, even when Jimmy doesn’t. So she’s going to bring everything she has of herself to the table, no matter who’s sitting across from it.
The combination of cheery charm and absolute menace has really made him an amazing character. I’m struggling to even think of someone who combined those two elements so well on screen. Dalton is amazing.
Kim’s reaction when he called her was heartwarming for me. Almost swoon worthy. It’s not just a business arrangement- she really does love him! After siing the cup, when Kim genuinely wanted to know what happened- with no judgement- and Jimmy still lied, (and she knows it) that’s the heartbreak. Goddamnit, Jimmy...
As scary as Lalo is, I have to say that what I find endearing about him is the true love he has for his tío.
I’m not sure which part was more heartbreaking, Kim worrying about Saul and the relief she felt after he called her, Kim seeing the coffee cup with the bullet hole, or Kim almost breaking down and giving Saul that look after Lalo left.
I think it’s just Lalo knows Saul is hiding something. That if Saul weren’t, he would not hide the fact that he got shot at for the money, maybe even be upset. Instead, he tells him his car broke down.
Eh, it’s kind of comforting to have Dennis Perkins out here giving out B- in these trying times.
Yeah, that misspelling of “neighbour” annoyed me more than it probably should.
Where to start? The sketch is actually based on a real BBC Sports commentator.
She ordering takeout at Terrazanos.
Turns out the real star of SNL was Studio 8-H all along.
That’s not his mom, it’s Kate Beckinsale
Kudos to whoever wrote the “breaking news” scrolling at the bottom of the Sky Sports sketch.
If there were ever a time to leave a letter grade out of the mix, this probably could have been it.
I initially thought Kim might be driving out into the desert to find him, then when I realized it was the same vehicle from before I figured Mike would shoot the driver so they could drive out in that car. Instead they didn’t even manage to get any water.
Halores: You think I should get bangs?
I think it will be interesting to see how all those different versions of her will start to diverge. If they find goals of their own once they inhabit those other lives long enough - we know Hale’s book has been giving her some trouble. How much can you really trust anyone - even yourself?
