'Better Call Saul' Season Premiere Recap: Funeral for a Friend

Did the cabbie recognize Gene as Saul? One clue is that he was played by Don Harvey, a busy character actor (he's one of the uniform cops on The Deuce), whom the production wouldn't have spent money to fly in from out of town for a nothing part.
Thought this nugget was interesting.
So yeah more likely he recognized him then he was a hitman or connected.

He had the Albuquerque dangling thing from his mirror. So he possibly has seen Jimmy's/Saul's ads there.

Maybe it's simply how word gets back to NM that he is in Omaha through people the cabbie knows ("hey guess who I had in my cab the other day "Saul Goodman" that notorious lawyer for the drug cartel... he wanted me to take him to a mall in Omaha").

When he called information to get the number & address. It's also mentioned in the Sepinwall article I linked above. He wouldn't have time to drive to Houston. Remember he committed to picking up his granddaughter every day for the rest of the week.

I'm such a baseball nerd that I spent way too much time wondering whether this was supposed to have taken place before or after the team changed its mascot from Dukes to Isotopes.

They became the Isotopes in 2003. Does that fit with the BCS timeline?

BCS started in 2002....I think it's about 2004 now. So yes in that period somewhere.

Breaking bad was 2008 through 2010 in flash forwards.

The ABQ team is really the Isotopes? The owners must be Simpsons fans.

Off topic but I don't think it's worth starting a new thread on. Did anybody happen to catch the show that premiered after BCS last night, Lodge 45?

Just curious.

Not yet but it's recorded. Supposed to be a dude lebowski like character. I like Wyatt Russell so I'll give it a shot.

I watched about 30 minutes. Apparently the premise is a Lebowski wannabe stumbles into an Freemason-esque fraternal organization. What happens next is either hilarious or inspiring or both.. I might go back to watch the last 30 minutes, but I was struggling to stay interested.

The last time I used that logic was in True Detective Season 1, you are probably on to something.

From True Detective Season 1 thread 1/30/2014 (holy crap has it been that long): "The use of a recognizable actor for such a small role as the lawn mower guy. "

Love it when they bring things full circle:

It's not quite full circle yet. Saul isn't even aware of Ignacio at this point, right? Maybe he saw him when Tuco was breaking those guys legs? Surely he didn't know his name.

Speaking of full circle.



Also, the circled one - possibly where Saul gets his burner phones?

So did they really burn down a home in Albuquerque to make that scene?

It was CGI. I'm sure just they just threw a big green screen in front of the real house and then did all that in post.

7th highest 18-49 ratings on cable, even with the finale last year, down a tick from last year's premiere.

Well, they had to compete with the bachelorette finale, so.

Solid first episode.

Almost got chills the first 10 mins during the hospital/cab ride sequence. That was creepyAF.

Vince can really drop you in to a setting. BCS is so good. The ultimate slow burn. But about to pick up is my guess
