Its problems like these that are making it difficult to watch this show. The same kind of stuff that made me quit Breaking Bad.

They’ve already reached that limit if you ask me.

That was pretty special, wasn’t it? 😃

Also pretty special. And why would Saul even give it a second look, since its been established it was _in fact a different car?_ 😕

I hate to sound like a dick, but I really don’t think the writers of these shows have an ounce of respect for the audience and expect the viewers to gobble down bowls of shit and beg for more.

I bailed on Bad, and if things keep going the way they are here, will most likely stop this show as well. Too bad, I’m an Odenkirk fan.
