Reddit has/had a boner for it. I thought it was okay. I don't particularly think it should be showered in awards.

The pacing is divisive. Some people love the slow deliberate pace of the show and others find it painfully slow.

Personally I didn't buy it was the same guy who became Saul whatsoever. Just didn't mesh for me. The fun of Breaking bad and in particular that version of Saul was missing.

God, I love the pacing to death. I'm a complete sucker for a slow burn.

But even I, in some of those earlier seasons, was left feeling like..."OK, this is great but let's get to the meat and bones of the Saul story."

Took me a couple seasons for it to really sink in that we were already in the meat and bones and this is what it looked like.

Amazing show IMO. Crazy that they took that character, built that show, and made something on par with its amazing predecessor.
