We thought Kim Wexler would be the moral anchor preventing Jimmy McGill from turning into Saul Goodman for most of the series but she actually may be more responsible for Saul than Jimmy himself. Incredible character development 🙌

[@dariusz_darson_8968]

it's rather contrived. there were some hints in the past, but still the actual change of her behaviour was done too quickly and unnaturally.

[@tomlette4358]

@@dariusz_darson_8968 respectfully disagree. Her disdain for Howard was well-established and so was her attraction to the thrill of the con which got less innocuous over time. If they telegraphed it too much it wouldn’t hit as hard for the audience or for Jimmy who was left stunned.

Indeed

[@KillerTacos54]

@@dariusz_darson_8968 And Saul calls it out, definitely not contrived at all

[@williamwren4006]

That's not how I see her character at all. She was and is still the moral anchor to Jimmy's character and when he became Saul, which was about the beginning of season 5-ish, he began to twist Kim into the perfect partner for Saul, which is kinda tragic because she fell in love with Jimmy, and whilst becoming Saul is great for Jimmy, since he's finally realised his potential, and he's the best at what he does, it's double-edged because Kim, who was morally, intellectually, and physically superior not just to Jimmy, but to most people, was brought down to his level. She's the one who has broken bad. She's the Walt to Saul's Jesse.

[@travisbickle2004]

Rhea is just incredible as Kim Wexler, she is easily one of the best characters in the Breaking Bad universe. It’s kind of sad BCS is coming to an end, it’s been consistently brilliant and I can’t wait to see each episode.

It always amazes me just how good these actors are. When you get to see them in real life ,they are often almost unrecognizable because the character they portray is so different from the actor.

What's really amazing though is that they not only avoided the extremely creepy way casting is usually done (with 20+ years of age difference between romantic couples), they did so despite having Odenkirk play a character that's 20 or so years younger than he actually is.
