UBKS's "the leading cause of death in Vietnam is when a diabetic asks for directions" tonal language joke checks out. That was great.

Also, was Hank from Breaking Bad sort of terrible on that show? I kind of thought so. Maybe comedy's not his thing. I did love the Entourage jokes.

I mentioned it a ways back, but The 100 is a really ballsy show. Season 2 finale was last night and it just continues to get better. Once you get through the first 6 episodes or so of Season 1, it's all uphill from there.

But you were already very familiar with his character and I assumed the back story was was fun to see. I just kept thinking throughout the episode "man, this would be so much more fulfilling if I knew more about what kind of guy Mike was". Just some "not watching BB remorse".
For sure it's better if you know Mike is a beloved character.
Yeah, I'm not sure if that episode would've been so great if you've never watched Breaking Bad, and don't know how unflappable and no-nonsense the character is. This week's episode was basically Better Call Mike.

We're using spoiler tags for people getting arrested?

The Jinx was a very interesting and fascinating 6 part doc series. And in every article i've seen, the very ending is given away, sometimes right in the title of the article, so yea spoiler tags are somewhat warranted here. The ending is pretty WTF.

Perhaps that should have been explained.
