Gill, and welcome Jimmy Mc. Gill, attorney at law. After taking the focus off of Jimmy for several weeks, Better Call Saul swung the camera back around on its leading man for a pretty huge episode centered on his career.

He's been wrestling not only with his Davis & Main gig but also the constraints its put on him as a rule- bending lawyer all season. Finally, he's found his way out: he forced D& M to fire him so he could set up a new practice (though that didn't quite go the way he'd hoped). The montage of Jimmy coming up with creative ways to get fired - - not flushing the toilet, playing the bagpipes, juicing obnoxiously - - was one of the highlights of the episode. Bob Odenkirk is consistently the comedic heart of this show, and any chance he gets to showcase that is a good one (we'll never forget you, cobbler). Adding in the imagery of Jimmy getting inspiration from a wacky waving inflatable arm- flailing tube man Airdancer commits to the absurdity of the sequence - - and hey, who doesn't like seeing Saul suits in action? Jimmy's plan to get himself fired so he gets to keep his bonus pays off, though he fully earns that "a- -hole" comment from Clifford Main.

His follow- up was somewhat less advised: Jimmy went to Kim and pitched a Wexler- Mc. Gill firm that would make them partners. Unfortunately, Kim knows Jimmy at his best and his worst, and though she is willing to be romantic partners with him in spite (or despite) that, she's not willing to commit to him professionally. That's clearly a pretty big blow to Jimmy - - especially when she comes back to him at the end of the episode and tells him she'd like to work alongside him, but not with him. Her pitch is that they both share office space but as solo practitioners, not partners. Inflatable" intentionally ends before Jimmy can give his answer, but if there's anything that shows him there aren't many who support him as his own lawyer, this is it.

It's interesting to tie that back to the excellent opening where we see the younger version of Jimmy who Chuck talked about earlier in the season. Here, we see his father falling victim to a scam artist - - he likely would have fallen victim to the older version of his son if he met him, too. The scammer tells young Jimmy that men are either "wolves" or "sheep," and it's clear that in striking off on his own journey (as he's repeatedly considered) is Jimmy's way of being a wolf. There wasn't as much with Mike's storyline this episode, though we did get a big hint as to how his and Jimmy's storylines will tie back together. Jimmy represented Mike when he rescinded his claim that the gun was Tuco's, and Mike subsequently helped his daughter- in- law land the perfect house in a nice neighborhood she had been hoping for. Jimmy makes a point to tell Mike about his own run- in with Tuco from back in Season 1, and it's easy to see that as the Tuco situation escalates in Mike's arc, Jimmy will get drawn into it both as his lawyer and his cohort. The Verdict. There was lots to love in Better Call Saul's seventh episode of Season 2, from Jimmy's big ploy to get fired to Kim's pitch for being "solo practitioners" alongside one another.

Many important pieces are being brought together as the series gears up for its finale, and there are plenty of hints of how various storylines will be brought together. But Better Call Saul is at its best when it balances its comedy with rich character drama, and "Inflatable" was a perfect example of how that can successfully pay off. Plus, so many Saul suits.

Anyone Else Kind of Bored? Was anyone else a little underwhelmed by Sunday’s “Walking Dead” return? Watch Clarkson Supercar Showdown Online Movies24free. I wrote last week that the premiere was a little boring, and I’ll stand by that. The problem isn’t new show runner Scott Gimple’s stated intention to focus on character development.

We TV critics gravitate to that sort of thing like zombies to carcasses.) The problem is that I didn’t see real character development in Sunday’s Season 4 premiere: just a lot of sloppy exposition and pandering pans of good- looking survivors whose haircuts get more stylish as the apocalypse wears on. We met a bunch of new folks we know will be eaten soon, and old characters symbolically planting seeds with what must be very heavy hands.

Lots of critics were more charitable, including Time’s Nate Rawlings. He praised “one of the series’ best opening scenes yet.” He also called the walkers- through- the- ceiling sequence “one of the more impressive zombie battles we’ve seen in a while.”“What if you tuned in to watch “The Walking Dead” and an episode of “Green Acres” broke out?” asked the Contra Costa Times’ Chuck Barney. That’s what it sort of felt like in the early moments of Sunday’s Season 4 opener.”Also read: ‘The Walking Dead': 7 Characters We Lost… Who Came Back (Photos)But Barney remained confident in Gimple.

Gimple is surely smart enough to know that, even with a more contemplative, character- driven approach, this show can’t thrive without heated conflicts and scary threats and lots of bloody splats. And so he gives us ominous scenes of zombie hordes pushing up against the cyclone fences,” he wrote. Hit. Fix’s Alan Sepinwall said it remains to be seen whether Gimple can “maintain a level of quality and consistency over a long period.”But he noted that “the show tends to run into trouble when things are too peaceful,” and that the new characters feel a little disposable. Sepinwall wrote that they “have the air of redshirts, there to be picked off one by one… while the bulk of the main cast survives. Beth’s attitude towards the newbies — friendly, but not emotionally invested, so she won’t feel bad when some of them inevitably die — could well be how Gimple expects us to feel about them.”The Onion AV Club’s Zack Handlen also worried about the interchangeability of the characters and situations.“As an episode of television, then, this is solid–nothing remarkable, exactly, but entertaining. And the store attack scene really is swell.) But as an episode ‘ The Walking Dead’ — or, more importantly, as the first episode of a new season of ‘The Walking Dead’ — it’s somewhat troubling.

The stuff that works … has very little to do with the recurring ensemble. Apart from the fact that we recognize the faces, the store attack could’ve happened to anyone at any point, and despite Rick’s agonized expression, the encounter with the Crazy Lady was most compelling for what we learned about a character we’ll never see again.

Sure, it turned out to be another excuse for Rick to wonder if anyone can possibly hold on to their humanity in the midst of all this horror, but by now, the answer to that is pretty obvious, isn’t it?”The Washington Post’s Hank Stuever compared the show to a video game, and wondered if it’s worth sticking with a series that has no hope of a happy ending — at least, not an honest happy ending.“There is only a reset button (revolving showrunners, new writers) or a fresh level of horror and despair, just like the popular video game based on the show which emphasizes the feelings and personalities of characters, who could all die at any moment. The TV show also banks on non- zombie intervals of personal conflict among the still- living, who behave like test subjects in a morbidly long experiment of applied social psychology,” Stuever wrote. Still, he said, he can’t stop watching. I know the feeling.
