Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 15 minutes ago, Nictarion said: Not so much unpopular, more that many thought Ozymandias was the better episode. Dunno. I think for a series as highly serialized as breaking bad, you really have to evaluate each season as a whole. Given how grim the final season was, the finale was tense. I honestly had no idea what was going to happen. I can't wait for the next season of Better Call Saul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler With Chuck dead the show becomes even more so Breaking Bad lite. I image we'll see more of the developing relationship between Jimmy and Mike, but based on the continuity we shouldn't see much if any interaction between the former and Gus - who I suspect will also be a major character. Overall, this is my way of saying it's rapidly becoming less Better Call Saul and more Breaking Bad: the prequel. Which is whatever, but obviously means no more Micheal McKean, who was great, and probably less and less of Kim (Rhea Seehorn), who's both been fantastic and whose relationship with Jimmy has been the heart of the show.

Spoiler I'm not completely sure he is. Isn't the rest sort of inevitable? The two have to connect eventually. I'd like to see more of the flash-forward story play out. I'm interested to see how Jimmy Magill's story ends. I'd also like to see how the other arcs end. Clearly most of these people are out of the frame in the BrBa timeline. You know Saul kept a copy of that squat cobbler videotape. It will be his ruin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler I just liked the other characters and wanted it to be their show longer. Now I suspect it's going to be primarily "Saul," Mike, and Gus. Which we've already seen.

The BlackBear Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I hate ketchup, and kind of look down on people who like it.

I also love tattoos and think neck tattoos look awesome. But I'll never get a tattoo, because I'm far too fickle, I'd end up not liking it.

That would be almost everybody. You look down on almost everybody. Now, if you're talking about Ketchup on steak, I'm right there with you. Homemade ketchup is very different from what you buy in the store, though it still doesn't make a good steak sauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadlines? What Deadlines? Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I really don't like any of Gordon Ramsey's reality TV shows. I watch Kitchen Nightmares as a guilty pleasure, but not anything else. Reality TV was never terribly good to begin with, but it really jumped the shark when it became this cheap voyeurism where boobs who aren't as clever or talented as they think they are get screamed at by millionaires. I have never seen an episode of American Idol nor do I want to. Having said that, I think Gordon Ramsey's YouTube basic-cooking videos are fantastic.

There is definitely a "mass produced" quality to it and it's so cheap and plentiful. I think commercially produced Ketchup is generally sweeter and less complex than a good homemade example. Hence the appeal to children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's obviously an exaggeration, but everyone else in my family is at least somewhat into them, so whenever we all get together I spend a substantial amount of time feeling left out. And as you said, I never got reality shows from the first season of Survivor (or Road Rules, or Real World), and still have never had any interest.

Yeah but what I'm talking about aren't really cooking shows; they're variations on American Idol that have a vague relationship with food. We used to watch Wok with Yan a lot when I was a kid. Justin Wilson (Louisiana Cookin') is still great. Martha Stewart is even pretty good. I have to support her because she went to jail for insider trading while serious criminals got billions for nearly destroying the world. I was also a fan of Nigela Lawson. Try to blame me.

dbunting Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Well hell the last few posts have nailed me. I love ketchup, but only Heinz. Never on steak, that would be a sin. A1 or nothing but it's own juices. Ketchup with french fries, hot dogs(and mustard), hamburgers(depending on toppings), hashbrowns, home fries, cornedbeef hash...I am sure there is more but fuck it, I like it and that's that! I like a lot of cooking shows and a lot of "reality" shows. No I don't think they are real but some of them have interesting people or are about things I am interested in. I still watch Survivor, have since day one. Watch Forged in Fire, Gold Rush, and Jersey Shore, with my daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the 45-day dry aged New York strip. I decided to try it sans-gravy because I wanted to taste the meat. Very flavorful, very tender, but not an abundance of juice. The meat was great, but I should have ordered a gravy. Herbed garlic butter would have been been heavenly. I probably should have ordered it "rare" as well. I think I ordered medium rare but I might have ordered "medium". I'm also inclined to think a fattier cut of meat would have been more suitable, like the ribeye mentioned earlier. - Oh, and I have no opinion on the Jurassic world sequel.

DMC Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Ah that's another unpopular opinion - I don't like ketchup on my burger. Or rather, I don't like it unless it's a shitty burger. If it's a goodburger, I find the ketchup to be too dominant as opposed to the thing I actually want to taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
