I miss my show.

No revelations, epiphanies, or theories. Just wanted to commiserate with people who get it.

My husband insisted I watch it and even though I loved Breaking Bad, I resisted. I didn't like, Saul, I said. Spinoffs almost always suck, I said. But he persisted and here we are. Best show ever, amirite?

My husband is sick of me talking about/watching/reading about this show. Fed. Up. But I am in full blown obsession mode. I mean, Breaking Bad was great. Incredible. Flawless. Technically masterful.

But Better Call Saul is all that AND A FUCKING LOVE STORY TOO.

There are two types of TV shows I like. Type A is all about quality storytelling. Visually compelling, well written, impeccably acted, high quality television. The Handmaid's Tale, Stranger Things, Black Mirror, ER (old school but the early seasons were fantastic). You get the idea.

Type B? Fluffy, mushy, lovey-dovey girly stuff. Grey's Anatomy, Gilmore Girls, Friends, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (old school and boy oh boy, by far the lowest quality of the bunch but have you seen Dean Cain without his shirt??) You get the idea.

Better Call Saul is type A meets type B. Quality television and a romantic relationship that hits me as hard in the feels as Meredith & Derek used to.

I hate having to wait for season 6. I'm so eager for the story to be complete. I'm choosing to remain optimistic about the fate of my all-time favorite fictional couple but either way, I'm ready to see the story come to a close. I know you all are too.

Care to reminisce with me? Share your favorite Jimmy & Kim moments.
