Should I do El Camino before, during or after BCS?

I hope EC is on Netflix or Prime...
EC came right after the end of BB and just before the end of BCS, but BCS is not linear.  I’d say watch it before the last season of BCS.

My unsolicited advice is to junk all of that and rotate over to MonsterQuest on FreeVee.   What a hoot.  Watched a group of dudes greasing around Ohio because they somehow think that a 9 foot Primate lives there. Another episode they captured a wild pig down in Texas and mounted a Hog Cam on it and released it.  So got to see some pig cam action as it hauled ass thru the bush but no Super Hog was found.  Then they moved onto NYC where they caught a rat and tried to mount Rat Cam onto it. Sadly it was too heavy and the rat just sat there in a funk so no Super Rat was found. Then some poor bastard went to take a crap and found a big ass rat in his bowl so he routed it with a Louisville Slugger.  Good times.  ;D

Does Brock grow up to be a gun-toting 11-year old too?

I know Mike goes dark, but I like Mike so far too.  Great character development.

El Camino is on Netflix too. If I had to do it again, I’d wait until I finished BCS to watch.

Mike gets even better in BCS

This would work well too.

I've been thinking this all along, but Junior and Marie should have be box-cutted in season 1. Those two make everybody's business their own. Asshole characters.

Damn you, Vince Gilligan!

Eh, nevermind...

Lessons learned up through to the last two episodes of Breaking Bad...

People with cerebral palsy don't just sound slow*. That character, Walt Jr, is a fucking idiot. Doesn't know when to shut up and gets in other people's business way too much.

Sister bitch was even nosier than the cerebral palsy tard. There are times when family should die.

Lots of FAFO examples. If you keep picking, you're going to earn a scab.

Illicit drugs make beaucoup bucks.

The Pontiac Aztek was a sturdy car.

*I know, I know, CP doesn't really make people stupid. They're only held back with their physical limitations.
Eh, nevermind...

Half Measures/Full Measure are probably my favorite episodes of the series.

Yeah, intense stuff.

Worst episode IMO was FLY. It was like a bad Twilight Zone episode.

Never got the hate for that one. But I also really like bottle episodes.

"I never told you..." Walt says, as he's zonked out on the sleeping pills. Almost tells Jesse he let Jane die.

Right now, it's too fresh.  There was a couple of annoying sequences that I thought "that took too long." Maybe I'll formulate more opinions as it ages in my head.

On BCS now.
Eh, nevermind...

Vince Gilligan didn't know if AMC was picking up the show past the Gus blowie uppy episode, so he made it a series finale, if AMC decided that season would be the end of the line. Since they renewed it for season 5, they needed new villains. Enter the neo-Nazis, and Jesse in a slave pit. Meh.

I thought it was just SJWs pissed that all the bad characters were Latin Americans. You know there's a gazillion Nazis in America

Having seen the final BB episode without any context, not seeing any other episodes, it was a nice wrap-up. I then saw the video with the alternate ending. Loved it.

If you haven't seen it in the Celebrity Deaths thread, the person that thought of the cross show dream ending was Bob Newhart's wife, she recently died.

I'm up to episode 8 of Better Call Saul's first season. It's finally in full gear with the old folks home class action episode.
Eh, nevermind...
