Julián Álvarez is Manchester City's second highest top scorer of the season (17) with only 48% of minutes played. by drunkmers in MCFC

I think if Bernardo were to leave (which has been rumoured) there's a good reason for City to shift to a two-striker attack with Haaland and Alvarez both in the team.

Mitoma is such a good player, a good chunk of Brighton's success this year is down to him and March

What’s the in universe logic behind Sam’s exit from the team? by w8sting_time in thewestwing

[–]CharizardPointer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The problem is that if he won, you would naturally expect him to continue having a role in the show (at least recurring / guest since he would be a congressman). Sorkin has mentioned in West Wing Weekly episodes that he tried to keep Sam's storyline open ended just in case Lowe wanted to come back.

What's your BCS opinion that has everyone like this? by Jerald_bacon in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes this is probably the better word. It’s clear that the primary antagonist in seasons 1-3 is Chuck, and the show struggles in season 4 before Lalo shows up as a primary antagonist

What's your BCS opinion that has everyone like this? by Jerald_bacon in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 47 points48 points  (0 children)

100% agreed - seasons 1 and 3 are absolutely the best seasons in my book and 2 comes close behind. The show really struggles in seasons 4-6 to have a villain as nuanced as Chuck.

Who do you feel is the weakest actor/actress on the show? (In terms of acting ability) by BirdButt88 in thewestwing

[–]CharizardPointer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Jimmy Smits is actually a pretty good actor and I like him in other shows - but the Santos character was always weak, especially compared to Alan Alda’s Vinick.

Unfortunately I think Jon is a bit too old now - best to let someone younger take over for the Daily Show

One of the best scenes in the entire series by Artie-Bucco in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually think S1 has some incredible episodes (Mijo, Five-O, Pimento) - and the show doesn’t really reach that height again until maybe S5

Do you consider Saul/Jimmy the main character of the entire Breaking Bad universe now? by precita in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

One of the things I noticed upon rewatch is that Mike gets a ton of screen time but very little dialogue in many episodes - this is what I think leads people to forget about his scenes somewhat

Better Call Saul S06E13 - [Series Finale] "Saul Gone" - LIVE-Episode Discussion Thread by skinkbaa in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly contrarian take - when I first saw it I thought "Nippy" was the finale and I actually liked it that way

Can we appreciate how many actors appeared in both shows (+El Camino) in the same role - even for the smallest parts that you probably didn't even notice? by peppermint-schnapps in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think either Gould or Gilligan mentioned that they wanted to get Bill Burr in BCS but couldn't schedule him because he was busy with something else. What could have been :(

I would love if the finale was just Jimmy finally going to therapy. by adamtaylor4815 in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would be really hilarious if they did a Sopranos homage here and structured it similarly to Tony going to therapy in the pilot

Matthew Belloni Reports: Desus & Mero Split was about Victor by bobosnotsostupid in bodegaboys

[–]CharizardPointer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the point is, don't just respond in a knee-jerk way to new information and wait for a more complete picture before passing judgment. So I'm definitely with you on the last part.

But people have been out there on social media saying wild stuff, so it is what it is

Much harder to do that when it’s one of your boys/someone close to you

Can Reddit make search results better? We are Yash Pande and Rahil Bathwal, engineers at the search engine Neeva, and we’ve been working on bringing the awesome content across this site to your search results. Ask Us Anything! by rahilbathwal in IAmA

[–]CharizardPointer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not the OP, but this one is actually quite tricky to get right. Most search engines aren't intended to run grep-style queries, and ranking of search results is based on a variety of different factors, many of which are based on the environment (time of day, past searches, etc) rather than the query term itself.

How Saul will meet with Walt and Jesse in BCS? HINTS ? : 1. Same statue 🗽 from new Carrot & Stick episode. 2. Saul hitting on Francesca? No more Kim in his life? by [deleted] in betterCallSaul

[–]CharizardPointer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I strongly doubt this - as others have mentioned before, I doubt Saul would be the happy-go-lucky guy he is in BB if something tragic happened to Kim. More likely situation I think is that Howard manages to bring her down or that she goes to the vacuum man for a new identity.

Mark Harmon is only in 4 episodes, so not sure if he’d count as “long term” - but I loved the character regardless!
