TV Review: Better Call Saul (2×8) “Fifi”

“Fifi” was a really good episode, solidly advancing the story arcs of Kim, Chuck and Jimmy in equal measure. Spoilers ahead! With Kim and Jimmy entering into a solid business partnership, this week they pursued a client: Mesa Verde. Kim delivered this client to…

TV Review: Better Call Saul (2×7) “Inflatable”

In Better Call Saul’s seventh episode, “Inflatable,” things really start to move forward for our favorite con man/lawyer, Jimmy McGill. Spoilers ahead! This was a great episode. Almost as if creators Peter Gould and Vince Gilligan read my last review…
