Rewatched season 5 last week. Lalo Salamanca is such a great character. Upbeat and likable but also menacing, like he has a wonderfully positive outlook on life but could snap and put a bullet in your head at any time. My favorite character in this show for sure.

---

He's amazing. I think the best word for him is menacing. He's just scary as hell.

That dude has a great screen presence. I'm surprised he hasn't been in more things.

Someone made a YouTube playlist of all the Gene scenes.

Season 6 is 100 percent on RT as of now. Though I assume the reviewers only saw a few episodes.

Edit: and if you read the reviews it tells you where the early storyline centers, which I think will be really good.

Think we will have any Chicago sunroofs?

Did you create that username just to continually post that gif? If yes - nice!

Was thinking the same thing. It's magnificent. Cannot wait!

Anybody else's DVR showing a 2.5 hour episode tonight? Is there some new release airing after BCS that AMC is trying to get me to record and watch?

First time I saw Lalo I thought 'who the f*** is this Cousin Oliver mf'er.

A couple episodes later he's one of the best characters in the BB universe.

Outstanding job by this dude.

Outstanding.,

---

Two mistakes.

1) you think the writers are gonna let you down? After all weve been through...

2)have you ever met a Salamanca that isnt menacing or formidable?

It's a double episode tonight

Good listen. A conversation between 2 old coworkers about Bob's early career and how he became the actor he is now.

The recap above reminded just how amazing that Lalo Kim Jimmy scene was. Maybe my favorite 20 minutes of TV the last few years. Kim's speech to shut him down was perfect.

---

Add in the tapping on the fish tank glass when Saul told him it disturbed the fish, genius.

Pretty good read here.

Is there a place to watch the new season other than AMC. I don't have cable anymore

Get AMC+ or pay for a stream I think service that has AMC

Yeah man, the writers did an outstanding job.

We've all watched so many shows where in later seasons the show starts trailing off. Introducing characters that don't resonate. Huge shift in storylines. Homeland was like that for me.

BCS and BB consistently get better as the show goes on.

That whole team is the best out there doing it.

Y'all are right. Looking back, the Jimmy, Kim and Lalo scene at the apartment has to be one of the best scenes of all time in any show.

Yeah, its gonna have to be AMC+ for $8.99 a month.

I have AMC via YouTube TV, but refuse to watch episodes via crappy compression with commercials. So, I just subscribed to AMC+ (via the Apple TV app) and everything I've read says that season six episodes drop on AMC+ Mondays at 9 EST/6 PST. That said, all current Saul episodes on AMC+, seasons one through five, are $2.99 each. Surely season six episodes will be free? Otherwise, what the hell am I paying $8.99 for? I'm guessing because seasons one through five are on Netflix, AMC+ can't have them for free on their own streaming network for some insane reason? Also, I've never understood why AMC+ isn't its own, separate app. This "channel" thing is so weird.

No AMC+ on Android tv. Oh well.

For every great streaming platform out there I feel like there are 5 dog crap ones

The sell for AMC+ with Walking Dead is they'd let you watch the next week's episode 1 week in advance commercial free.

Doubt they do that for BCS, but I'd assume the reruns in S6 will be commercial free on the service.

AMC+ isn't letting me sign up, **********

It's time

Time to avoid this thread 'til later tonight. See you guys then. Finishing the Mavs game first.

"Lalo". Oops.

The American Greed play was hilarious. Hope they do a 2nd part to it once this season is over.

Premiere starting off tense!
