It is amazing. But I’m not surprised in the least given Gilligan, his writers, directors, cinematographers, etc. etc., could complete each other’s sentences after their years of perfecting Breaking Bad.
I wonder how different it would be if they weren't allowed to take their time to make each season. They're not rushing out new episodes like most non-streaming shows.

So, that's even if it's cancelled? I know the Sabres and everybody are holding everybody's money because the season is "on pause" - not cancelled. Same with Stones tour - postponed, so they're keeping the money. Ticketmaster that is.
And when they are cancelled, wouldn't the refunds go to the original ticket holder as opposed to someone further down the chain on a stubhub purchase?

I've been toying with the idea of them throwing us a major curve and Kim never has the downfall we're all expecting. She was still there during Breaking Bad, but never shown. There's really no way of doing that though thanks to Omaha. I do wonder though if ultimately the brief present day storyline will bring her back.

Norm and Niles jokes about their wives, without them being in the show, were often hysterical.

there has to be a back story. Like why he was so reclusive when he first met Alpha. Something was up that some may want answers to.
Not me particularly
The only back story I'd be happy with would be if he was the guy who played Opie on Sons of Anarchy. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed.

I dropped Netflix a couple months ago. I guess it's time to pick it back up for a month.

So, with Dawson playing Ahsoka Tano, I guess the stance on having all new characters is gone...
Biehn could play Dengar or Bossk. Boba Fett cameo?
If Biehn doesn't time travel, I'm out.

No. I've been surprised by the comments saying it's been boring. I just caught up on it and think it's better than ever. I find the relationship between Jimmy and Kim to be more interesting than the Nacho/Gus/Mike story line. They've managed to make Kim the most interesting and conflicted character on the show at this point. Although, Gus being a ruthless villain in the guise of a reserved small business owner has been fun to watch too.
The show is like watching an interesting tragedy because you know for the most part that Kim will no longer be in "Saul's" life in Breaking Bad and that Saul will eventually get in too deep with the underworld that he's going to have to go on the run. How will the Kim/Jimmy relationship end? What happens to Nacho and his father?
Kim is good, but I think a big part of the interest there is that everyone is waiting to see how she falls off the map. You might get that same thing with Nacho and Lalo, but they're nowhere near as important to the show. She's probably the 2nd biggest character on the show.

Maybe it makes sense to the comic book readers.
Does it matter what a Half Moon is? Unless he killed his audience during a concert it's moot IMO.
That was unique to the show. He's famous in the comics too, but not a musician. And that's all the point was here. He's a famous singer and that was one of his albums. I hope that's as far as they take it though. We don't need a full episode sharing his back story.

The article says that a weighted draft lottery system is still probably the most likely scenario. But I thought this was an interesting idea (assuming that they’re even able to resume at some point before next season is set to start).
They played most of the season. There's no reason to change the draft lottery procedures. They shouldn't completely alter their operation just because they want a temporary ratings spike. Sure, a couple teams here in there were going to move up or down a couple spots, but there's no way to account for that and they shouldn't just throw out 70 games worth of results.

It’s cool hearing a younger RJ call a game again.
I miss the sounds of the old arenas, things so packed in with the low ceilings. Some can get loud today, but they'll never sound like that.

If they didn’t air the Michonne episode this week they wouldn’t have been able to use the scene of Judith telling her they got Alpha, which freed Michonne up to look for Rick.
I feel like there was a significant time jump there though (a couple weeks maybe?) and all of the Whisperers were taken care of at that point. How much time that was, who knows, but from the show point of view, only two people know she's dead. I think that radio call happened after anything we'll see in the last three episodes.

With CV-19 ,,,, Filming isn't happening so "next" half season may be a while.
If the Rick movies are already filmed NOW would be the timeGet it done and no looking back
I meant the start of this half season may have been a good spot. Apparently they originally planned to air this episode at a different point but then they swapped around the order a bit. I forget exactly where it was meant to air, possibly right before the attack on Hilltop. I think that just goes to show you how even the writers didn't know where best to place it.
And thanks to this comment, I googled a bit to see if they've started on the Rick movies. It doesn't sound like that has moved much at all yet, so it should be well down the road still. Part of me wants to say the main series ends before we ever see those, but I get the feeling that they'll want to reunite him with his kids at the very end of the show.

That episode kind of sucked. Very little plot movement forward. Zzzz fest.
Yeah, it did feel like a bit of a waste. They didn't choose a good time to air it either. I think most wanted to see immediate follow-up to Negan's actions. I'm not really sure what would have been a better time, maybe the first episode of the half season.

She sure does.
What a tripped out episode. Kinda dull but it sews the pieces together.
Based on the closing scene .....
My guess ... that may be the last time we see her for a long long time.
the next weeks preview -
What was Negan promised
anything else beyond his freedom?
I just wish it was a little easier to hear that radio conversation at the end. I missed a lot of it due to the static. I'm also a bit curious on the time line and how long after the beheading that was. It sounded like they were back in Alexandria, so we do get one little spoiler there on certain characters surviving.
As for when we next see here, my guess is that will be at the very end of the first Rick movie, with their reunion.

I never watched or read any of the Jack Ryan stuff before, I enjoyed this show so far too, it did take a little while to adjust to Jim fighting crime instead of Dwight in the Office......
I've been watching the Office on comedy central this week while I've been home. So yeah, it's extra strange for me.

I used to really dig those too but unfortunately my health issues no longer allow it. I would cook 2 of them and dip sliced bread with peanut butter in it, a meal in itself.
cupboards are bare here, may have to go knock off a squirrel or two for supper.
I like how "Flavor" is in a slightly smaller font. It's like they're trying to hide it but not really trying to hide it.

The wife and I started Jack Ryan over the weekend. She's only half paying attention, but I'm really enjoying it with maybe 3 episodes left to go in season 2. She's never seen them, so I'm going to have to show her Red October and the two Ford movies once we're done. I've been saying "how dare you sir" randomly while watching, so now she'll finally understand why.

And all 18 cups are filled with hand sanitizer. It's a nice touch.

Someone far less calculating and far more brutal is now in charge. That should lead to some fun.

Did she steal Bret the Hitman Hart's sunglasses?

I never watched Breaking Bad live, but I thought they had a similar schedule, at least near the end, where they had more than a year off between seasons. Am I just mixing up the last season being split in half?
