"You got to call Saul"

I hear a Saul Goodman spin off is planned.

The entire season has been devoted to the storyline of ACN's staff being questioned by their legal counsel in preparation for a $20M wrongful termination lawsuit due their totally wrong reporting of the US military using chemical weapons on Pakistani civilians.
Click to reveal..
Their reporting was based on the "evidence" that was actually doctored tape footage, and yes, they got it all wrong and they were set up. Every episode in season 2 follows this storyline on how they f*cked up, the personal accountablility and the tangential circumstances that have taken emotional tolls on many of them … and their own personal accountability and integrity has likewise acted to bond them. And yes, Sloan is red hot.

My favorite is Charlie
I've always liked Sam Waterston.

I find his interaction with Jane Fonda's
character (and son) the most interesting of all.


I still wonder exactly what happened to Keith Olbermann.
One night he wrapped up his show, and without any warning
or explanation simply announced that he'd just done his last show

...........................wtf?.........................

I've really liked how the character of Don Keefer has developed this year over last. He has been very supportive of Sloan.

nup

afaic
the dismissive, overbearing way he treated Jim
from day one (while Jim was warning him about
the ((yellow alert)) Deepsea Horizon event made
me want to land him on his keister from then on.

I realized I had seen the Fukushima episode because someone showed it to me in the US because they wanted to know how good her Japanese was.

The answer is she has obviously studied it some but it was a bit stilted and she is not fluent as she was portrayed. Still an interesting set of scenes.

Yes and that episode was definitely a series of things going wrong. The Fukushima Daiichi retraction and Will being taken to task for the black and gay Santorum supporter. The man who played that character was spectacular. I had to rewind it and watch his rebuke of Will again.

And thanks to Gary for putting some stuff in a spoiler box. I know it's not Breaking Bad level stuff but I would like to find some stuff out for myself.
