It seemed like somewhat of a "filler" episode.... transitioning from the first half of the season to the last half. I only just watched it tonight.

Not enough? There wasn't any! Nice to see how the moniker Saul Goodman came to be though. I don't know his name, but I like the Hector goon who was taking the drug cash in the beginning. Don't remember him on BB, only Tuco, who was mentioned in this ep as being in prison and stabbing a guard. Like that guy, he has potential. |

Then we learn how Saul Goodman was born, thru the magic of TV. The only complaint I have is minor. I made some TV commercials 35 years ago for a business I had. No way those amateurs made that extremely edited professional spot in 2 hours. Editing alone would have taken longer than that. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I agree. Having made and been a part of the making of numerous gambling videos, I know a lot more goes into making even a bad video than it seems. Then again, maybe some people just have a flair for it. If there are, I'm not among them. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

It would taken a whole afternoon to shoot it, then hours to edit it and add all the graphics. There were a ton of graphics. And it was 2001, the software for editing was primitive compared to today. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

He was there a few minutes, with his daughter in law at the meeting. The President is a fink. |

| Fleastiff Member since: Oct 27, 2012 Threads: 62 Posts: 7831 | You sure are good at picking the models though! Even that one you picked that is also an Armed Executive Bodyguard is simply stunning. Rember the writers are hemmed in by certain constraints, can't necessarily get Tuco back under contract, and are really writing for the NEXT season as well. |

Thanks, but which one would you be referring to? Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

| Fleastiff Member since: Oct 27, 2012 Threads: 62 Posts: 7831 | Well, I guess your wife will be happy to see that post. She knows you never tried anything with that model or you would have discovered her five-shot cleavage pistol. Frankly this was along time ago and I don't recall now which one it was, but I read her resume quite some time ago and she does more than just look pretty as a gun show demonstrator, she sidelines as a body guard in heels and a slinky dress. |

I'd be in a lot of trouble if she snooped on this computer. What married man wouldn't be? You must be referring to Angela as she is the only one that I would have given a last name for, enabling any easy searching. I had no idea she sidelined as a body guard. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
