However I can not figure out how they can possibly keep this going more than 1 more season before they run into the beginning of BB.

Besides how Jimmy ends up where he ends up when we meet him in BB, what else is there to know? Nothing.

And we know this is not like 10 years before BB because of everyone's age, including Mike's granddaughter

It isn't going to be just a linear development of Jimmy morphing to Saul. So many other background angles to develop, i.e how did Fring get into the meth/pollo restaurant business, what happens to Kim, Chuck, what is with the Salamanca / Fring rivalry... many possibilities to explore with many interesting charters in the mix.

What really jumps out though is how much older/tired Mikes looks in the prequel as opposed to when he first appeared in BB.

Why do we care about Kim? I don't care a bit for her. I don't even like her character. It's safe to assume they eventually part ways....for obvious reasons. Any other overly dramatic reason is going to really annoy me the way walking dead annoys me now

I don't care about Chuck either. It's safe to assume he dies naturally or Jimmy has Mike kill him. Either way, not sure I care or understand why this could take years to develope

We know why there is a hector/Gus rivalry. This was shown in the BB episode by the pool......at least we know why Gus hates him

I guess we never found out how Gus got into the drug business and that might be the only interesting story plot to explore here

Either way, I enjoy the show but have doubted from the beginning the necessity for its existence

Is that a serious question?

Once the timelines meet, we jump ahead to Cinnabon of course and watch Saul quit his manager position and move on to ??? Maybe he hooks up with Jesse and they get back in the meth biz??? Last week's intro showed that he is not happy keeping his mouth shut and is ready to go ballistic in some manner. Just a guess

I think she's a great character, always on the edge of ethical behavior just to help Jimmy.

She'd be much prettier with a smile.

The one timeline I can't figure out is Hector. How do we get from young dark-haired Hector as he is now on BCS to old white-haired Hector on BB where he appears to be 10+ years older. I realize he is on the verge right now of getting F'ed up in major way and into a wheelchair, but that won't account for the apparent aging??

We'll never know...

I still like her.

Rhea Seehorn is delicious
