I was initially tricked by the karaoke scene with Chuck and Jimmy. I thought when Jimmy sang, "the winner takes it all..." and got Chuck to join in with, "the loser standing small...", that Jimmy was indirectly poking fun at Chuck. But then they actually had a nice bonding moment.

Jimmy is complicated, which is why the show is great. I think he truly wants to be a good person, but he does not have the fortitude to put in hard work. We all see that he actually has the potential to be a good lawyer, but he is also street smart and knows how easy it is to cut corners. He cannot help but choose the easy, selfish path.

I had a feeling w/the karaoke scene that it would end with Chuck pushing Jimmy aside - which it did, as he wanted the limelight. I thought it was interesting how Jimmy didn't seem to be bothered, and they had the bonding moment again in bed. I thought it showed how Jimmy just allowed Chuck the limelight for their whole lives in many ways... and maybe it's why he's not doing it anymore? It was an interesting scene.

‘Better Call Saul’ Season 5 Will Explore Kim’s Relationship With Saul Goodman

https://uproxx.com/tv/better-call-saul-season-5-2/

This piece explores some aspects that I've been anxious to find out - what is the final undoing for Kim prior to the Breaking Bad timeline? And is she still around post-BB?

Yes of course she is around. Which is why Saul is in Omaha near where Kim is from.

Wonder who the holdup is? Bryan Cranston?

I read between the lines that an actor (or two) is unavailable due to other commitments.
That's the way I read it as well. Mike is starting to look too old to make it believable as a prequel. Now add two years to the last season.

Rhea Seehorn posted this weekend that shooting has officially begun, at least. (My Twitter is freaking out or else I'd post.)

I don't mind the delay as long as they get it right. Such a good show.
