Yeah, I don't mind the pace of the show at all. Why rush it? Hopefully, it will be on for 5+ seasons. We know where Saul ends up. I am loving all of the information about how he got there. I think rich, detailed characters is one of the things that made BB so good, and I am glad Vince Gilligan is taking the same approach with this show.

Im really liking it so far. Not a fan of the Chuck storyline, but understand the role it plays in Jimmys life/ethics. Im hoping he is institutionalized sooner than later and we dont have to waste 10+ minutes on it every week.

But, other than that, everything else is exceptional. The shots that Gilligan uses are still the best in the business and add a lot to the show, even if the viewer doesnt realize it. The writing and acting is top notch.

At this point (comparing to the writing in both The Walking Dead and Breaking Bad), I think everything that they do has been necessary. I'm not questioning these writers one bit until it's all over. (The walking dead, on the other hand... those writers suck).

I really like Mike :) Now that we know his background it makes sense.

I agree with the above comments from sport, raw, Ytown and earnest. The character development is outstanding.

He is easily one of my favorite "non-star" characters on any show ever.

At least it looks like the Chuck story line is mostly done.

I loved the last two episodes.
They are really building Mike and Jimmy. It is slow, but so was Breaking Bad at the start.
It is not as great as Breaking Bad, but it is some of the best tv on right now.

Every scene involving Mike is great. The second half of the episode was good last night. Right after I posted.
