All these great villains, and yet we haven't met the most terrifying one of all.
Walter 😔
Lalo
Kid named Finger
Don't spoil it for him
@@runningwolf21 Can't spoil anything at this point, he's gone through the series months ago.
“These guys are like Far Cry villains” - ironically that’s Nacho and Gus, not the Mexican Cartel guys lol
"I want to see your BALLS"
One neat thing to keep an eye on is how Kim's hairstyle changes over time. How tightly wound her ponytail is, for example. The actress herself pointed it out as a detail not many notice.
A side note, just noticing you’ve called her “the receptionist” a few times - Francesca is Saul’s secretary from Breaking Bad. Another subtle tie-in between the two shows, who’s character development and background is neat to see from its origin.
If you already knew, apologies. Just wanted to connect that dot for awareness as the show progresses.
I only figured it out much later myself ngl
Hard to recognize her when she looks happy.
Mike walking around firing off the Chuck repellent every 5-10 seconds is for real hilarious
how does your comment say “4 months ago” 😂
@@stephen1245they watched it earlier on patreon
Yes! We finally get introduced to the most essential character in the show: LYLE
This was a joke, don't tase me bro.
Well he IS a fan favorite that's for sure.
better dial lyle
We love his work ethic
It isn’t a joke
Lyle’s character arc is so perfect
Hector’s lucky Lyle was in a good mood that day 😤
Get ready for probably the best moment in TV history next episode. not joking.
Interesting fact - "Better Call Saul" has three actors from a legendary movie that came out 40 years ago - "Scarface":
Miriam Colon (Abuelita / Mama Montana)
Mark Margolis (Hector Salamanca / Shadow)
Steven Bauer (Don Eladio / Manolo "Manny" Ribera)
And the movie itself was referenced at least twice in Breaking Bad:
In season 1:
Walter: So why you selling it in such small quantities? Why don't you just sell the whole pound at once?
Jessy: To who? Who do I look like? Scarface?
In season 5 Walter and Walter Jr. are watching "Scarface" on TV.
And also, Walt’s character arc was stated by Vince Gilligan to be a transformation from Mr. Chips to Scarface.
I knew the other ones but I didn't know Tuco's abuelita was the same.
Favourite character? Howard. The actor works so hard early on in getting you to hate him. And succeeds. But the nuanced acting slowly, slowly wins you over, to see he's really a good guy. it's like a concentrated mini reverse version of Breaking Bad all in one...
I just knew you were going to get the giggles over Gus' speech to his employees. The first time I saw it I thought "goddamn, he's good".
"You do not know the tank you are swimming in" is a cold line
Normally prequels aren't as thrilling because of knowing what happens but BCS beautifully jumps that hurdle while also being excellent fan service
Giancarlo aka Gus is at my job rn on set filming 😆
The Mike and Chuck scene almost felt like a cameo appearance by Mike. They are in such opposite parts of the show I never expected them to have a scene together
The actor who played Lyle also played Hood's long lost (faux) son from Oregon in the show "Banshee." The bastard got to be in a love scene with the luscious Lili Simmons.
Lucky bastard... (I have never seen Lili Simmons, but I assume she is, like you say, luscious.)
Don eladio diving in the water is almost exactly like when he face planted after being poisoned in BB.
“Not the manager- the balls” Bravo, Vince!
I like that phrase you gave, “You’re well intentioned, but you don’t know what tank you’re swimming in.”
Love how Mike racks the drill the first time. It's like he's saying, 'f*ck off, weirdo.'
I am just so in awe of the Breaking Bad writers!!! How do they track so many details that eventually converge later in the series? Incredible!
Now that Gus is in the picture, the show has picked up a few gears. Also, that episode with the shoes hanging from the shoe laces is so cool, genius stuff.
Special note to Mike meeting Chuck (and vice versa). This is the kind of amazing stuff Better Call Saul offers. The writers did an amazing job pleasing Breaking Bad fans, MUCH more to come 😁
Best thing about the Mike scene with Chuck? You just know that he fixed that door to the best of his ability. Both because it would be suspicious if he didn't and because he has standards as a face door repair guy.
Bob’s delivery of “nobody should treat your own brother like that” really hit me the first time. Jimmy found a way to turn his apology into an insult to Chuck about how poorly Chuck has treated him
I honestly have a hard time choosing a favorite character in this show.
I hated Howard initially but by the end of the series he's one of my favorite characters.
Kim is phenomenal. She was nominated twice for an Emmy for her performance on the show.
Nacho is another huge favorite. How can you not love the dude? Michael Mando killed it. (Side note, he was mentioned by Saul in his debut episode of Breaking Bad.)
Mike and Gus are basically gods of both series.
I can't wait for the season 3 finale.
As much as I love the characters of BB, I think the ones in BCS are even better.
Oh you should be excited. The next episode is incredible
You know, I always thought that when Jimmy said to Chuck, "No one should treat his own brother like that," it was not actually an apology but rather how he felt towards Chuck and his actions. And as others have said, the next episode is fire!
When Gus and Mike first meet in-person on that road, they bring back the dark ominous music from Breaking Bad for the first time in the series
Next episode is chefs kiss. Cant wait to see your reaction
I love the direct callback at 2:03 bc what it does is introduce us to this character the same way he goes out, like, in a literal sense too (bc the shots are basically identical)
The irony of Gus actually being a Far Cry villain
Nacho too
Seeing Gus and Hector interact before Hector was in the wheelchair is amazing to witness. Also seeing Mike and Chuck in a scene together is fantastic as well. When I first saw this, I didn’t expect the two would have a reason to have them share screen time, but I’m glad we saw them interact, regardless of how small the scene they were in was. Great reaction James, hope you’re doing well. Take care!
"Whenever Mike's involved with something, you know some slimy, shady stuff is happening. No offense to Mike." LMFAO
I'm pretty sure we've all been patiently waiting for the video on the next episode
I am just glad we have gotten to the point you reference things in order. Like how Breaking Bad inspired GTA 5 and so much media afterwards. This inspired the time-lapse and lock off camera shots. They didn't invent it, but things like that, you know are from this crew working on Better Call Saul are from Breaking Bad.
Kim loves Jimmy, but more importantly she's intensely loyal.
Gus should have made Lyle the employee of the month for not almost killing Hector.
I am looking forward to witnessing your experience of the court showdown scene!
Just an FYI the actor playing Chuck has been famous since the 70’s. He played Lenny on an old popular sitcom Laverne and Shirley. He is a great actor. Michael Mckean. He was in This is Spinal Tap. Not sure if you reacted to that yet. By the way, you are one of my favorite channels.
What's delicious are these episodes. And they just get better. Thanks for another reaction. Look forward to seeing these.
Ooooh boy the next episode is something else! Can't wait for that reaction!
Man I look forward to every Tuesday because of your BCS reactions especially when there's a double BCS week.
I remembered when they aired season 3 they also uploaded online these Los Pollos Hermanos training tapes with Gus himself in it lol I'd recommend checking it out it's quite a treat.
James is bringing the quality as always!
Jimmy and Kim. Gus and Mike.
KIM/eKIM (Mike) are the two
supportive characters to the big minds in the show, Jimmy and Gus.
Great use the beats, you're right. I love how the second turning leads to surprising climax almost every single time. Great writing (and directing, cinematography, coloring....)
Oh boy, next episode is the big one, I'm excited to see your take on it
When some of the Breaking Bad timelines intercede with Better Call Saul. That's why some say this TV show is even better than the original show. I felt the same way you did when I watched this for the first time. Looking forward to your next reaction video. :)
It's funny because while watching BB, I always thought that despite Gus being a force to be reckoned with, he was reasonable. But after watching BCS, I saw the cold side of Gus that was so terrifying and it only reinforced how scary he could be. In the upcoming episodes he has a monologue that gave me literal chills when I heard it.
Can’t wait for your reaction on the next episode cause things are gonna hit off the bat
omg i was watching your videos to breaking bad as i started watching it and i just about finished breaking bad a few days after you uploaded your last breaking bad video, and i finished better call saul a few days ago and even though some of these comments are 7 months old implying youve probably already seen the whole thing it will be cool to actually watch these as they get uploaded
I honestly feel bad for the Pollos Hermanos employees unknowingly being part of Gus' dealings. They're just living their lives and doing their jobs at a fast food.
I can't wait for next week's episode
Gus being introduced into this series elevated EVERYTHING.

Much love!
James, if you like the guy who played Chuck (Michael McKean), you might like him in his early role, tongue in cheek, This Is Spinal Tap movie. They just released Spinal Tap 2 last month with him in it again. It's funny/weird to see "Chuck" rock out. But you should see the first one to get the following.
I cannot wait for you to finish this season everything Amps up so much
Yeaahhh no we're gonna need another double upload this week
"They're far cry characters" Meanwhile Nacho is still waiting for his cheeseburger
cant wait for next episode
Ah, man, Rhea’s acting in the finale will break your heart.
Hopwfully we get episode 5 tomorrow..woukd be an epic wednesday
I love seeing more of download audio
Funny that he's comparing them to Far Cry villains when two actors in this show have also played Far Cry villains.
How have you not reacted to 'Dont look now' yet ?!
Lyle is lowkey an S-tier character
Buckle your seat belts for the next one😉
Lyle and Ernie are the 2 characters in this show that I hope have great fictional futures
Don Elazio played Manolo in Scarface!
There we go.
Peak fiction is coming up next!
Rewatching Banshee Lyle is also Jason Hood😮
I'm glad nobody spoiled you on gus
One more episode to go ...
2:03
Nirvana
*Nevermind*
Is next episode the episode that I think it is? 😬
Great reaction but go ahead and release the next reaction episode because you know we have all been waiting for some Chicanery
1 More Episode!!!!! Chicane Me Baby
I never understood how some people could watch these videos 7 months ago ? (since there are comments dating from this time?). Do they have access to it through the patreon ? although in the desription it's said that the patreon "only" gives you access to 2 episodes ahead ?
I might be making this up but I think I saw someone comment that he already completed the series on patreon
Yes he has finished it on patreon 😊👍🏼
Ok thanks. But then what I still don't understand is why he says that the Patreon gives early access to 2 episodes ahead when it can actually give you early access to months of content (since the BCS finale was uploaded in january 😅)
@@Thomas_Sch98 oh right, that's because the 2 ahead is the UA-cam cuts
7:46 😮
Obligatory comment mentioning Hector was lucky Lyle was in a good mood that day, otherwise Hector would be put on that wheelchair way earlier.
I dare you to triple upload bcs this week mr james... you won't
Still one more episode before we see your reaction to the greatest episode of television ever made? What is this chicanery?!
In hindsight I bet gus wishes he had just let mike kill Hector
Nahhhhh Gus wouldn’t change a thing hahaha he was petty when it came to Hector lol
For me (a typical cis-het guy in his 40s), Kim Wexler is a representation of the ideal woman (physically attractive, supportive, intelligent, fun to be with, ferociously loyal, enduring).
Why thank you
for me, in my 20s, i'm right there with you.
Unfortunately, you're most likely never going to meet a woman like that in real life, not even close. And if you do, she's probably going to be in a relationship already 😂 sorry to be a bummer but even though this show is realistic, she is still a fictional character
Bad driver
Dude I totally understand getting wrapped up in this story. It’s such tight storytelling. I was one of the people who didn’t think it could live up to B.B. but holy wow they raised the bar even higher!! Great reaction!!
😎
I loved this show at first but his brother story line made me switch off.
Anyone else fast forward through the grandkid/daughter-in-law scenes?
People with poor attention spans, yes
@@shaun6038 or people that don't need the exposition scenes. It's filler. Not interested. Personal preference is not synonymous with attention span.
me.
Handyman Mike best character, your opinions are invalid.
Good god, will you stop saying things remind you of video games? This is real art and video games replicate it, not the other way around. What’s next you start reacting to Elvis and say he reminds you of an Elvis impersonator?
Shut up you crybaby loser 😭
Haa! Nice
Don't believe the other comments. They are trolling you. The next episode is considered the worst of the series. It's like "Fly" in Breaking Bad.
James on GOAT pace with these uploads HOLYY
And you just know that Chicanery is tomorrow. I've been looking forward to this one since the start.
