The Mike storyline cliffhanger kind of bugs me. But now I'll definitely watch next season.

I mean there's great questions left to answer but what a sh**ty finale. No climax at all.

I really liked it, I thought it moved a bunch of the storylines along to logical points. Shows Chuck can be just as manipulative as Jimmy. And I thought the scene with Mike set up with the sniper rifle was fantastic. Much better finale that TWD's a few weeks ago.

Had to be Gus or one of his guys, right?


I figured it was Nacho, but was Nacho near the truck driver that got shot? Or was that Tuco standing in front of Hector? Maybe it was Gus's guys, ohh man, that would be awesome.

I was expecting a bombshell somewhere and we didn't get that. Maybe if the note left on Mike's car was written on a Los Pollos Hermanos napkin or something like that it would have made it better. I just think as a finale, the episode fell flat. Felt like that could have been a better lead in episode to a finale than the actual finale.

That would have been pretty cool.

The Chuck story-line is getting very old.... Jimmy was completely setup, total BS!!!
Yeah, I imagine Nacho got killed and Gus was the one that left the note.

Nacho survives at least until the Breaking Bad timeline. He is mentioned (but not seen) in the episode where Walt and Jesse meet Saul.

Chuck is becoming my most despised character, but I thought the finale was great. It will be a long 9 months or so until the show starts up again but overall I've really liked the series. Definitely a slow developing story much like the first couple seasons of Breaking Bad but I have a feeling things will start to escalate from here.

My guess - the note was left by Gus, or one of his men. He didn't want Mike to shoot Tito because he knew the cartels would blame him for it and come after him.

This show is great. Man, do I really hate Chuck. I knew he was lying. This gets Jimmy disbarred, he becomes Saul?

I'm not sure how they are going to play this since its set in Albuquerque and Saul practiced there too. Wouldn't everyone in the legal community know Saul as Jimmy, so I don't think he'll get disbarred and create a fake identity to continue practicing law. I'd guess his reputation as Jimmy McGill gets tarnished bad enough that he starts a practice under the name Saul.
