Jimmy can't respect someone he can con.
This.
Facts.
Does he respect anybody?
@@playedout148 Kim.
@@jculver1674ehhhh...
The guys falling for his sales pitch reminded him of his dad being an easy mark for con men. He has a lot of resentment for how gullible his dad was, and of course thinking about his dad makes him think of Chuck, which is the last thing he wants to do right now
Can't expect much from uncle Jack and the waiter!
@@tornoutlawUncle Jack and "Not Benedict Cumberbatch"
Demonstrating box cutter safety AND plastic bag choking hazards to new employees; Gus is such a thoughtful boss!
6:43 "I cant wait to see how THIS blows up in *precisely 20 seconds"
ong i said "later on?" XD
8:43 😂😂 I often stop myself while watching BCS and think “man Walt really came in and ruined all this”
Idk, I think yes but also Saul too.
exactly! In BB, Mike angrily tells Walt how he ruined everything. They had loads of cashflow, just trust in Gus and he'll take care of the business/empire/drug lord/assassin part of it.
@@sickpunch1That was honestly one of Mike's dumbest moments tbh. Every action Walt took was to save either his own life or Jesse's life. If he hadn't killed the dealers, Jesse would've got killed. If he hadn't killed Gail, he would've got killed. If he hadn't manipulated Jesse to turn against Gus, then eventually Gus would have convinced Jesse to let Walt die. At a certain point, Walt had no choice but to "blow it all up".
what exactly did walt ruin? a massive meth and cocaine distribution empire? Only to replace it with his own that had several of the same people.
Who else was waiting for him to scream ''Uncle Jack and The Waiter!!!!''
12:40 One of the best scenes in the entire series imo. Rhea Seehorn is Goaty McGoatface.
baffling she didn't win an emmy for that
Biggest emmy snub ever, specially after season 6, she shone in it
Anyone notice how that guy from printing place had really small hands?
It’s so funny to think about how a high school chemistry teacher brings ALL of this to an end, lol.
The dudes Saul is talking to around 5:30 in this video are both actors that make several appearances in Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia! One of them is Charlie’s Uncle Jack who only briefly appeared in season one but you’ll see more of later and the other is someone you haven’t seen yet but will very very soon! Fun little crossover between two shows you’re watching right now
These last three seasons definitely kick things up a notch. Looking forward to everything coming up on the channel ✌️
the other actor is the guy from Gugino´s
3:50 What's going through his mind is the last conversation he had with Chuck and he's trying to prove to himself, more than anything, that he doesnt care either.
Uncle Jack and the Waiter from Its Always Sunny lol
Also, keep in mind that Kim doesn’t particularly like Howard very much. He’s been very condescending to her in the past, so personally I think part of her rage at him derives from that as wel
How Rhea Seehorn managed to one up her own, incredible acting EACH SEASON still blows me away. Fascinating character and performance.
That scene with Howard is my favorite in the whole show.
bangin shirt
Ayyy my guy 🙏🏽
Dude I was gonna say the same thing. I want one like it.
That scene where the twins are told to talk to hector in this hospital setting will never not be funny to me.
“Both these characters are dead.”
lmfaoooo
Crazy how a chemistry teacher cause so much damage..!

Much love!
That scene with Kim shouting at Howard is one of my favorite Kim scenes in the entire show. He intensity gives me chills there. She's such a good actress and she's such a compassionate character when it comes to Jimmy.
honestly, she is also letting her guilt out on howard. not trying to justify his actions; she's not technically wrong per se, but yeah like james says it is Jimmy's fault (and hers too for helping with the trial) and she is trying to deal with that while also watching the man she loves slowly dying inside and coping in a pretty bad way
One of the best scenes and he talked over half of it 🙄
She's always there for Jimmy.
But in scenes like these, I always feel like she knows he's at least somewhat guilty of what people think he did.
@@mattwoodson6427 no offense but why are you watching a react channel if you have this problem?
@@shinyt9003 Good question. It doesn’t bother me for the most part. Just think reactors can be more selective about when they add commentary. Like immediately after a heavy dialogue scene.
I really hope you watch Spinal Tap one day, especially after seeing Chuck.
The best part of Jimmy's pitch this episode is that they're the same actors as Charlie's uncle and the male waiter (you meet him in later seasons of sunny) from It's Always Sunny. Epic crossover episode!
Hey James, don't know if you noticed, but that doctor that inspected Hector at the beginning of the episode is the very same doctor that saved Gus' and Mike's lives after their assassination of Don Eladio, all the way down in Mexico
I was really happy when the dude died at the end only because I really hated that haircut and it drove me crazy. Like WTF was that ponytail?
Looked like a dick on his head, lol. I agree with u 100%!!
Anytime Jimmy is given the opportunity to be a straight shooter he always goes into self-destruction. as much as he acts like he wishes he could have things simple, he’s given an opportunity and he purposely fucks it up. He enjoys breaking the rules. That becomes more clear towards the end of the show
I'm just glad to see Uncle Jack has grown comfortable with the size of his hands.
I love the scene with Jimmy’s job interview. There are a lot of aspects to it (like jimmy being reminded of his dad in the interviewers).
But I also think it has a weird dimension of self-punishment to it. Chuck’s death is laying heavily on his conscience. He wants someone to call him out on his BS and hold him accountable. Those two guys do the opposite and he hates them for it.
Only one person who can hold him accountable. But your comment is spot on. Reinforces the ending even more.
Only 6 more episodes until the goat
It hurts when they make you feel bad for Howard when Jimmy is totally to blame.
We're lawyers!
One of the many things that makes Gus an interesting character: as powerful as he is, he's more than willing to do his own dirty work. He wants people to be afraid of him. Not his henchmen. Him.
"I can't wait to see how this blows up in his face later on".... literally 2 mins later. LOL
Dude that’s uncle jack that’s Charlie’s uncle lol
Not missing this one. Season 4 is where the show changes. Chucks death was the catalyst to start the infestation. It's no longer a lawyer drama, it's in the world now that encompasses Breaking bad. And Jimmy is like a magnet to it. And with Chuck being the only one to keep saul in check, that's gone now. Not sure if this was intentional by the writing team, but I can't not see it like this ever since rewatch.
The show changes from the Better Call origin story into the Breaking Bad prequal. But it also still manages to continue to be the Saul origin as well.
Man the writing and directing from this point on is absolutely magnificent.
Better call Saul is a master class of writing, ive and you have already seen Breaking Bad we know whos there, who dies, and whos not, but we still care for them in the prequel. I believe this is far more challenging then making a original series besides the concept/foundation.
Please react to Society of the Snow Please! Long time fan here. Keep up the good work!
The end of this episode was crazy.
Oh yeah, the guys jimmy went on a job interview to were in sunny, we got the waiter and Uncle Jack
Just saw "All That Jazz" (1979) at my local revival theater, and it completely blew me away! You should put it on your list, James.
Cannot wait for you to meet Lalo, James
he loved lalo a lot! we hope you enjoy!
😂😂 Been thinking the same thing. Cannot wait.
I believe Jimmy immediately said no to the position after getting hired was that Jimmy has a constant internal struggle between going straight and pursuing the thrill of his con man ways, which ultimately leads him to reject the mundane stability that the copier job represents.
"I'm sorry but I love Jimmy." Lol. It's funny how, just like in Breaking Bad, nobody is rooting for the main character. We'll except for you but I'm sure you got there eventually with this show.
Edit: Bro.....saying Jimmy is responsible for Chucks suicide is like saying Chuck is responsible for Jimmy being a con man. They both orbited the problems but neither were the cause. Howard isnt responsible either, but hes closer to it than Jimmy.
The scene with Kim and Howard is my favorite scene in the entire series. It made K8m my favorite character for the rest of the show. I am always surprised with how many reactors and comments I see painting Kim in a bad light for that scene. She said nothing wrong and her delivery was INCREDIBLE. I fell in love a little.
I don't know that Jimmy is really any more responsible for Chuck's death than Jimmy. Obviously the show needs to contrast someone who is repentant for his part in all that to someone who is deep in denial, but Howard did enable Chuck for years. He didn't have to force Chuck out in response to the insurance thing, and he didn't have to try and block Jimmy from getting Chuck help in the hospital back in season 1. For me, the difference between them is not about culpability, it's about who exhibits guilt over it.
Everything Kim said to Howard is exactly what i was feeling. Kim and me are jimmy defenders through and through
Giving all the accountability to Jimmy is shitty as well. Yes, he played a big part, but you could also say that Chuck ended up pushing Howard and his friendship as well, all for ego. Howard at least is trying to do what's good now
Watch mommy-2014 by Xavier dolan. It's amazing
I gotta say, I love the car choices for everyone in BB/BCS. It all makes sense for each and every character and the cars are used appropriately. Nacho and his goon pulling up in a Cutlass 442 package, those are some sweet fucking cars.
Was more of a coworker than friend, while max and gus is theorized to be buttbuddies
2:51 - Gus be like Slender Man standing there.
Gus- “I decide… no one else.”
Walter - “hold my flowers.” 🤣
This is when the slow burn and crescendo of BCS starts to match the same level of action and tension as BB.
This is the episode Kim became my favorite character. she is tough.
3:01 thats Batir , he was one of the goons paid by Noho Hank in Barry
Gus is always very hands on when it comes to making points💀
Oh right, this is the moment where Gus becomes an actual demon.
Am I to remember every man that falls into a plate of spaghetti?!?
Nice to see a couple of always sunny actors in there!
Ah man, I wish you were further along in Always Sunny because the two copier guys are both recurring characters in that, and I absolutely lost it first time I watched this that they were both here together!
8:26 Lmao I can't believe I thought "Bladerunner" 2 seconds before he said it, even though I don't even remember Blade Runner to even know if this resembles that. Now I'm so connected mentally to his reaction that I'm predicting what James is gonna say like he predicts what show characters are gonna say lol.
Yo that dude is Uncle Jack from its always sunny. 5:40
You are mine! Let's go Gustavo!!
So goes Nacho under darker pastures.
The more Jimmy holds things in, the worse things are going to be for him.m, especially considering how we see Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad. And now that Gus has revealed that he knows what Nacho did, things are going to take a turn for him that he didn’t expect. Great reaction James, I hope you’re doing well. Have a great day and take care!
Nacho's Dad has killer lines.
I can't when Jimmy just start playing with people like they are NPCs😹😭😭
“I’d never join a club that would have me as a member.”-Groucho Marx
They reminded him of his late dad's gullibility. He loved him, but that's the one thing he always resented about him.
This dude Gus💀
Kim is amazing
That shirt is so fireeeee!
WELCOME TO THE FRUSTRATING WORLD OF KIM PROJECTION!
dont be sorry for reminding us that jimmy's responsible for the mess 😂
😎
Karaoke waiting room
Best intro sequence of the whole show
I don't see Mike or Lydia or Gus as dead. Much like I don't see Laurel and Hardy or any other old stars on films as dead. I love how the magic of photography and film keeps them all alive. As I'm sure you know being a filmmaker. By the way, Mike does address his view on his fate in season 5 and I found it very comforting for me regarding his character.
Not me. All I think about is that some jerkward, ego maniac school teacher is gonna be responsible for their deaths. Makes me appreciate their characters more.
James VS Cinema, You're amazing! Let's be friends and have fun together!
