Edgar Allen Ho posted:Albuquerque is actually surprisingly cool, due to the elevation. It's still hot compared to northern climes but it tends to top out around 90 or 95 in the summer, it's no Vegas. Also it's a dry heat. I'd take a dry 100 over a muggy 85 any day. People adapt to the temperature they live in. You see people from Minnesota wearing shorts and a tshirt when it's 50 out and Florida people would have their winter jackets out. I don't get a jacket in 95º either but I've never lived there.

I grew up on the coast of Florida so to me anything less than "95 with 99% humidity" is "a bit nippy"

They must film during winter. yeah, I'm pretty sure I heard on one of the podcasts that they filmed in winter all through BB too. It's bright and clear out but 48 degrees....hence "the coats" also, parkas come out here in Norcal if it drops below 68 degrees. I grew up here but still wear shorts for golfing in winter >50 degrees though, but with long sleeves/warm top.

You've worked in TV but didn't know that yearly seasons were the norm the whole world round with the exception of factual, soaps etc? Get the gently caress out dude.

I'm from west Texas, far enough west that I'm about as close as you can get to ABQ while still being physically in Texas, but I moved to Ontario for a while. One of my most enduring memories is walking outside in shorts and a t-shirt after my first canadian winter, sometime in late April, and being shocked that the just-above-freezing weather felt physically warm on my skin. It's crazy how quickly people adapt. Especially since we spend most of our time in climate-controlled buildings anyway.

Look, if WWE can crank out 6 hours of live scripted tv every week, alongside another couple of hours of TV from monthly tapings and two monthly live 3-4 hour PPV events then I don't think it would be too much to ask for the BCS crew to work a bit faster.

Yeah I think they've always filmed over winter in order to be able to air all the episodes in summer. Several of the BB podcasts talked about actors filming scenes that were supposed to take place in the summertime but it was actually 20 F out. They'd do a take then run off camera and throw a coat on. Sometimes the opposite happens, I think they mentioned that when Mike hides in the refrigerated Los Pollos truck it wasn't actually cold so he was sweating it out in all that gear. And as a Texan anything below 90F is a cool spring day to me.

Two 8 episode half-seasons instead of one 10 episode run every year would've made the pacing more tolerable for this particular show

I remember when I was a kid, there would be one half in the fall, and one half in the spring. Everything had at least 20 episodes a season. Now everything runs for 8-13 episodes over a few months until the next year.

I can't believe people are criticizing Jimmy for getting Chuck's policy hit when the real villain is the insurance lady. Why is no-one talking about this ruthless monster?! Realtalk: I find it hilarious that the oblivious pharmaceutical guy keeps coming back. Figured he was done after his first appearance/arc.

But Saul in BB managed to be a source of fun shenanigans. IMO it should be about a veneer of humourous hijinks hiding a dark underbelly. At the moment it's all underbelly.

One of the best parts of this show (and BB) is Gilligan & co's ability to bring back characters from minor side plots in earlier seasons and make them relevant in the main plot. I'm looking forward to finding out how Pryce develops what isn't technically a hearing problem, but sometimes when there's a lot of noises going on at the same time, he hears them as one big jumble.

Cnut the Great posted:Huh, if it happened in prison you'd think they'd be more than "pretty sure." From the surrounding dialogue in the BCS scene, it seemed like Tuco stabbed the guy, but it was punching a prison guard in the ensuing chaos that got him thrown in solitary. If there was no evidence (like if he had an accomplice to dispose of the shiv for him) or other prisoners that were willing to testify against Tuco, I could see the charges not sticking. Then again, my knowledge of prison is based entirely on other TV shows and movies.
