Top Comments of this video!! :3
The idea that Lalo invaded Kim and Jimmy's home, taking away their sense of control, which led them to plan their scheme on Howard to get their control back in a way, actually blew my mind. It's insight like this that I couldn't have picked up on if I rewatched the show 100 times. Thank you for doing what you do ā¤

You described an aspect of Jimmy that I don't think is noticed much, the outsider, creative side. It's what makes Jimmy so relatable to me, and what makes him standout as a lawyer.
I was helping a kid with Math, and I told him to just play around with a calculator and do things and see what happens. And he didn't like that idea, it seemed almost morally wrong to him... that not doing something in a way you are told to and creative play. If you aren't told specifically how to do something, it's wrong to just try it. I was kind of shocked by this, and I thought this might be the process that many people actually have. There's a flippant creativity that some find repulsive, that sets you up as an outsider just by disposition.Ā
Jimmy seemed to embody this in some way... I fully get his reaction to working at Davis & Main. I did student teaching, and had a talking to that wasn't much different from Jimmy's stern warning from the higher ups. I didn't realize that what I was doing would offend them so much. (I inadvertently insulted the teacher, because I didn't like a worksheet that was her pet project.)
Great video, you always reveal so many new things about it.

but consider the silver lining: he seems to have an exceptionally good reputation among the other prisoners, providing him modicum of extra protection from the violence or prisons and with his added social skills, a huge potential to create contacts to get like extra coffee and ice cream and stuff. and most of all, he can work as a legal advisor, which is one of the most valuable types of "currency" you can make in the american prison system if i'm not mistaken. this unironically does make saul 'the last line of defense for the little guy'

You and Ological are the two best BCS analysts on YouTube. So many channels just summarize episodes and have nothing original or insightful to say, but you guys always remind me the amount of detail and depth that was put into this show. I think that a great TV show is designed to make you think, and reflect on what it means, as well as have discussions about what it could mean (there's no one obvious answer to the questions the show poses). BTW, you should team up Ological for a collab video.

Iām an artist, I studied psychology, and Iām obsessed with bcs, so this video could not be any more up my alley. I just absolutely adore your videos. And your thorough explanation of the psychological underpinnings of the Howard scam was so on point. Every video you make is a giftā¦.even more so now that the series is over. Thank you š

I really love the description of jimmy's art being a way for him to feel powerful. I think it's definitely right, when he's performing he can make himself into an auteur, he can convince himself that his opinion matters more than anyone else's. I think it makes not telling clifford main about the commercial make way more sense because having to be accountable to anyone else would take away that power to some degree.

Your comments on legacy made me realize something (a bit off-topic) --
Jimmy hates Howard, in part, because Howard is an alternate version of Jimmy. Or rather, Howard represents an alternate path. Both Jimmy and Howard are living in the shadow of some amazing and significantly better lawyer: Jimmy's brother and Howard's father (the other Hamlin in Hamlin Hamlin McGill). But unlike Jimmy, Howard accepts this role with total complacency and satisfaction. He shows that Jimmy could have been happy to simply live in his brother's shadow, and Jimmy resents and despises that.

I always click on these videos of yours thinking "I'll watch 15 minutes right now and finish the rest later"
I usually end up sitting and watching the entire thing in one sitting.
Love what you have to say about the show, and I also love how your thoughts on the show deepen my appreciation for it!
