Highly subjective of course, and I dig all 5 seasons, but this one sticks in mY head

Can’t wait! You have been killing the reactions to this show, so glad you both enjoy it!

Posting this for selfish reasons (IYKYK) document.querySelector('video').playbackRate = 0.95904

The way everything converges to the point where Frank is walking towards The Greek in the last shot is masterful storytelling.

Vimeo's not what it used to be ( ˘︹˘ )

What video player do you all use that lets you set that specific of a playback rate?

I've been binging this show along with you, and also watching episodes of Avatar the Last Airbender in between as palate cleansers, so imagine my surprise when I learned from IMDB that Erik Dellums, who plays the medical examiner on this show, also did the voice of Koh the Face Stealer.

Hey Doug, it's a bit of a browser hack. You have to right-click on the video, select "Inspect", then plug the above line of code into "Console"

I'm always leaving it super late to comment on these posts. Anyways, the shot of Frank kicking the barbed wire fence and grabbing onto it after talking to Nicky has got to be one of my favourite tv shots in recent memory. What a phenomenal character. Reminds me of Jimmy Mc Gill even though they're very different people: they sound like simple characters on paper, but in practice they garner no much sympathy.

Love that shot! How would you compare the character writing between The Wire and Breaking Bad/better call Saul? Obviously one has a larger cast with less focus on individuals

@Doug Just in case you don't know, we are changing the speed of LM's video on Vimeo and not The Wire episode.
