There seems to be an issue when too many spoiler tags are in a post andit messes up the formatting of the whole page. I had to edit my post above and delete Buckboy's last post. Repost it but don't quote the other post that had multiple spoiler tags.

It's from overlapping tags, like if you open a spoiler in the middle of a quote. Probably happened when somebody quoted the post with the extra half spoiler tag.

Yo, for you that like westerns, I found a hidden gem.
That Dirty Black Bag, it’s on Prime. Ragnar, Little Finger and Preacher are in it.
On the 3rd episode, looks like a keeper, my kind of show.

This is actually AMC+. Prime has the first episode for free, then you need AMC+ to watch the rest. They offer a 7 day trial.

It was more of the same. You guys aren't missing anything intelligent (par for the course).

Hmm, no clue just started it and didn’t see any charges. Maybe signed in AMC there, have it through Directv. Looks like Ep. 4 may need the trial or something.

Too many streaming services. Everyone wants to have their own. The question will be weather they make more money with their own service or by selling their content to another service. Depends on the subscriber numbers. Some of it is jumbled up. Paramount and AMC have their regular cable channels and their streaming service. Most of what they have on their streamers is the same as they have on their regular networks with a few exclusives (1883 on Paramount +, Dirty Black Bag on AMC+). And it can get muddled up. Paramount showed the first couple of 1883 on their regular network, then made the rest exclusive on Paramount +).

Feel like AMC+ is pretty pointless. It's not like have BCS, BB or TWD exclusively outside of live eps.

Joe Pickett season 1 is now streaming on Paramount+. Originally a Spectrum series so it's there as well. With Michael Dorman (For All Mankind). I enjoyed it. Based on the books by CJ Box. There are 20+ books. Been renewed for season 2.

Letting Gus go on his rant was smart. Up until this point Gus had been kept alive because he was a great earner. If Lalo kills him Don Eladio would have been pissed. But taping the tirade covered his ass

The podcast talks about when they finished filming E7 they took hundreds of pictures of the set so they could recreate it exactly when they resumed shooting. Patrick Fabian was actually lying there, they used some "magic" to make it look like he wasn't breathing.

i forget what episode it was but gus hid that gun down there when lalo first was down there with him
Why should you go to jail for a crime someone else noticed? You don't need double talk... You need Bob Loblaw.

I forgot that and had to go back. The lighting for those scenes were terrible and were pretty hard to follow what exactly went on.

Spoiler:
Lalo was never in the lab until this episode but you're right, they showed Gus hiding the gun there in S6E5. I forgot about that.

Yeah it's getting crazy with all these streamers. That being said, I got it for $24 for the year on some sale. I've enjoyed it for access to my favorite show of all time, Mad Men. But also worth it for Gangs of London (unbelievable action), That Dirty Black Bag, Ipcress files, This is going to hurt, and the North Water (Colin Farrell.

But as MD said, streamers are out of control.

Spoiler:
without regard to what Gus did a couple episodes ago, Lalo deserved way better.

Yuck.

Just watched the whole thing

F- from me.

And I loved this show like a child.

Spoiler:
the downside to BCS is we already know what happens to many of the characters. Given Gus dies in BB and Lalo isn't in BB we knew Lalo was going to die. Given that I'm fine with how it went down.

Yup. Let's say you somehow meet someone who's never watched BB. Would you recommend to watch BCS first? I guess we don't know for sure how these next episodes go, but I think I would

I probably would watch BCS first

Someone just asked me that. I said BB, but I don't think there's a wrong answer.

I want to revisit BB after BCS is done. I wonder if knowing the backstory of certain people (thinking mostly about Mike) would make it a different experience.
