Why does Howard dare Jimmy to a boxing match? | Better Call Saul S6E5 "Black and Blue" Breakdown

[@daniel_cerv]

HE’S BACK!! I’ve been an avid viewer since S4 basement breakdowns and I can genuinely say that there is no one out there providing the kind of in-depth analysis that you do. Thank you for continuing this series! and just know that’s there’s people who are happy to wait for these masterpieces 👏👏

[@jackdonsurfer]

Let’s go John! We’re all happy to see you still posting

[@rikard.h]

Lalo slipped through! Great analysis, John 🙌🙌🙌

[@Emi-md3ed]

I don't care how long it takes you to complete one of these analysis, it's totally worth it. Just, wow, such great work. Please get to the finale!

[@RedMangabey]

In the middle of the night, when I can't sleep, I keep wondering if Jon Teti's masterful Better Call Saul analysis would ever come back. But when I thought all the hope was lost, he triumphantly returns!

[@DK-wv7ed]

I know i can speak for almost everybody in the comments. The hype for the remaining breakdowns is as strong as the hype we had for the last season of better call saul. We miss you Ological!!!

[@ConnorYagecic]

I am so unbelievably glad to see you back! Your analyses always leave me with plenty to think about, and I've been very curious what you have to say about the final episodes.

[@TestingChannel1407]

I heard a theory that Gus had an epiphany that Lalo would search for proof by means of a German connection, because when he suggests to the customer to try the spice curls he is reminded of showing the new item to Madrigal and Peter Schuler... people who may spill the beans on the underground lab.

[@mdamien4156]

Those window opening/closing shots were sick. I cannot believe i missed that

[@cristiancervantes3088]

The window/ Lalo breakdown Maybe the best analysis I've seen. Thats fucking awesome.

[@LateCigs]

This is the most insightful BCS analysis series I've ever seen, glad to see it back

[@Calebe311]

You're back? 😭😭😭 We missed your reviews

[@vhampyre01]

Dude, your attention to detail and the way you present it in these videos is ART in itself. Please keep it up.

[@hopewhite7533]

Your updates are like one of those favorite college courses that you look forward to attending because when it's over, you feel so much more insightful! Great to see ya, again! The telepathic comment regarding the lab scene with Gus and Mike was hilarious and spot on.

[@GG-hh1sl]

I'm SOOO glad you're back! I was distraught over the lack of basement-breakdowns, thank you for this one!!

[@Cybershell13]

I always look forward to these analyses. There are so many little details to appreciate in this show.

[@darkbowserdofus9978]

Hi :3

[@Ballislife32]

I gotta say your videos are in a league of their own compared to others that try to analyze BCS/BB. I've seen A LOT of video essays and analysis on this universe but they can be very surface level. But with your extensive knowledge on cinematography, filmography and entertainment in general, it really shows us a whole new layer of depth that many people including myself would never have seen or understood. I really hope these continue even after season 6. These videos have made me look much closer at both series and I'm now finding all sorts of foreshadowing clues and details.

[@Alphadanielmon]

KING I LOVE IT WHEN YOU UPLOAD LONG LIVE THE BASEMENT BREAKDOWNS LONG LIVE SAUL

[@TrueGamerX]

Like every season of Better Call Saul, you too are well worth the wait Mr. Teti.

[@Mattened]

Man, these breakdowns are so entertaining and interesting. Please, keep going!

[@brownie_1595]

The man, the myth, the legend!!! Take all the time you need to upload these John. There’s a lot of analytical content of KZbin these days and without a shadow of a doubt your stuff is so consistently so far above rest!

[@rogerrubio9540]

BRO YOURE BACK!!! PLEASE KEEP GOING I REALLY WANNA SEE YOUR BREAKDOWNS ON PLAN AND EXECUTION AND POINT AND SHOOT!!

[@jithwheels]

These videos are a treasure trove of some of the best BCS breakdowns, apart from those made by the take. I want to binge watch all videos after you’re done with all the breakdowns

[@Blackcatjinx77]

Love these videos, i had a rotal Schizo moment watching this show because when Saul mentioned Howards alias "shanking a guy near Central Penn" I realized he was talking abot the intersection of Central and Pennsylvania, which is a very sketchy place in ABQ where I was attacked with a knife about a week before this episode came out. I felt like the tv was talking to me.

[@rafaelarevalo8047]

you really are fantastic at this. you seem to see right through the show so clearly. especially loved how you pointed out the sliding door/window connection. so excited for the episodes to come.

[@brennanmcdonnell9343]

you are far and above my favorite "critic" on youtube. no other channel comes close to matching the depth and the ingenuity of analysis in your videos. please keep them coming!!! I and so many others could listen to you deconstruct any piece of media. Thank you for putting out such thoughtful content!

[@Hitman61547]

It wouldn't even matter if the show had been over for ten years, I would still be excited to see your breakdown for the next episode! So much I hadn't caught even when I was trying to because of you! The Lalo part in particular was eye opening with the Werner allegory!

[@Chisito23]

I love your analysis videos so much. Please keep posting them! 🙏🙏🙏

[@SuperiorJohn]

YOU'RE BACK! I cant stress enough how I love these basement breakdowns, I've probably rewatched them more than I've rewatched BCS. I cant wait for you to finish the rest of Season 6.

[@Jennifer_150]

Same!! ❤❤❤

[@asackofgravy1001]

Happy to see you John! Hope all is well. Thank you for your in-depth analyses of my favorite show ever!

[@podge7356]

I loooove your BCS breakdown videos . . . they seriously might be the best film/tv-show analysis videos I've ever watched. Every point is so well thought out and beautifully worded. I don't even care that they're not released very often, take all the time you need. You're creating real value 😊

[@grahamcrackerz1714]

YESSSSS! I don't care how long these take to make, they are always fresh.

[@qwertyboy5000]

You’re back!!!!

[@GaZZuM]

When I watched the show I already thought it was a masterpiece, but seeing your analysis videos, I realise that it's even BETTER than I thought! You make Better Call Saul better, thank you so much!

[@EvanGaoTV]

THE KING HAS RETURNED

[@pokechamp3987]

The best channel is back!

[@veralynn8334]

The goat is back

[@fabybaby]

could you pleaseee do a basement breakdown of House of the Dragon? a lot to unpack there

[@scooterjones303]

Namast3 brother. Love love your breakdowns and will continue to be here for it!

[@TheMovieSequelDude49]

You're one of the best Better Call Saul analysis channels on KZbin. So by all means, take as much time as you need to analyze this awesome series. I already know it'll be a sad day when you've finally covered the last episode but I'll be enjoying the journey until then.

[@Kevt23]

Hey John! Wanted to see if you'll eventually be finishing making Basement Breakdown videos for the rest of Better Call Saul? I've been re-watching every BCS episode with my gf, and we are following each episode with watching your corresponding Basement Breakdown video. It is the optimal way to watch! We are getting very close to season 6 episode 6, so I'm really hoping you'll be putting some new content out in the near future! Thank you for doing what you do! These truly add an additional layer of depth and appreciation to every episode (which is saying a lot considering how incredible this show already is on its own)

[@ortigarosa]

YAY! YOU ARE BACK! I was so worried, that the series would end in the middle, but no, really glad to see you again!

[@epicwin4913]

Yes! YEEEESSSS!!

[@Noah_AWICB]

The mirrored beginning and ending of the episode... it really is as you say, artistry.

[@iinc6290]

Another point of interest about the mounted stag is that it is also used as a symbol towards the end of breaking bad while walt is getting chemotherapy in the cabin with Ed, the chemo being hung from one antler and heisenberg's black hat from the other, a clear analog of the dichotomy of walter as a character. I find this interesting because this dichotomy is mirrored so often in BCS, I am positive I remember you commenting on this during the season 4 basement breakdowns. The reappearance of the stag as a symbol is now being used to further cement this parallel even after werners death.

[@Jennifer_150]

Yes! I noticed this too! 👌

[@IHamilton9320]

So glad you’re back! Mindblowing breakdown as always, it’s amazing how much of this goes completely unnoticed without a keen eye. The opening and closing window shots are absolutely brilliant

[@Jennifer_150]

👌👌👌

[@localhost.0]

Fresh Oological content from John, heck yes dude! Your channel is criminally underrated. By the way, did anyone else notice something a bit wonky with John’s mic/audio in this episode? Anyway, fantastic breakdown as usual!

[@ologicalonline]

Good ears, yes, there's a slight microphone issue I need to figure out before the next taping. Sorry about that!! 💙💛

[@I_Just_Stellar]

I really enjoy these breakdowns. You’ve made me understand films on a deeper level. Please continue. Love from Kenya🇰🇪☺️

[@EverSinceMyExorcism]

Knocked it out of the park!!!! Fantastic breakdown. Thank you.

[@dudebro0481]

I never really engaged with an T.V show like this before I got hip to your channel. I knew the show was good, but I didn't why it was so good. You fostered in me an appreciation and interest I never thought I had. I'll never look at cinema the same way again. 💚

[@Jennifer_150]

Same here!! It’s like my eyes have been opened to a whole new world that has brought me so much joy and excitement! 😮❤

[@Nihit]

This is the best analysis of anything in the cinematic world. I know you will finish the season 6, but please also do the initial seasons, if you can please also do breaking bad, I am very sure that your audience will pay for it, this is golden!

[@jeremycurle6880]

finally back! i was so hyped when i saw this in my notifications.

[@rogerrubio9540]

me too!!!

[@davefava256]

Return of the king

[@alexjin1693]

John and Inky are back!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@Jamieos1990]

Oh bravo. That was exceptional, even by previous standards!!

[@LumilusD]

The best is back!

[@wattsnottaken1]

❤so happy to see you’re back. I’ve Been binge watching your videos for the past couple months

[@arenavisionTV]

This guy knows how to build anticipation for his next video! Welcome back good sir

[@meowier1]

This video encouraged me to make my own breakdown of the next episode. When Ological's one comes out, I can compare the two. But I'm horrendous at this and probably made 1% of connections that Ological will make 😄nonetheless, I'm glad I did this exercise and would recommend it to others.

[@The-Triumphant-Truth-Talker]

I binged this entire series today. Day well spent

[@lukas834]

This is the best Better Call Saul stuff, except Better Call Saul itself! And it's great excuse to jump back to BCS world 🖤🖤🖤

[@rsp1983]

I'm two episodes from completing my first rewatch of the series, and I lucked into finding Basement Breakdown two days ago. I've since binged every video and it gave me such a huge new appreciation for a show I already thought was amazing. Thank you for these videos, I've learned so much, and can't wait for the rest whenever you get to them!

[@georgeforeman7621]

Me and my girlfriend finished the show together yesterday, her for the first time and me the second… couldn’t have been a better time for you to post another vid :)

[@vladimiralcazar8459]

Thank you! Please, never stop making this videos!

[@NewYork975]

Wow… I thought this dude quit, wb man.

[@bella3775]

I’m officially in love with this channel ❤

[@ryanbaker2762]

Amazing content as always but sad it took this long :(

[@liquidluck8594]

Your breakdowns are just as good as the show.

[@OliverObz]

The insane amount of detail you go into!

[@Safalo]

Wow it's a funny coincidence that yesterday I rewatched the last one after KZbin recommended it, despite having already seen it. What a well-timed refresher!

[@Jungus1999]

HE’S BACK! Hands down the best analyst of BCS out there!!!

[@doodley3d]

Good to see you again!! Love your BCS analysis.

[@yourfriendoverseas5810]

It is absolute madness that after 8 months of your last video, this is the first time I do a better call saul search, and you posted this video only 10 minutes before it. And I searched specifically for the boxing match. Thanks for the breakdown.

[@davidbarnett8617]

At the rate videos are produced, I will be dead before the end of the series.

[@VicUPx]

oh my god what a great video. absolutely brilliant. again. always shows me how many details i've missed. Especially the Lalo and Margarethe summary in the start kinda blew my mind.

[@boop7725]

HE'S BAAAACCCCKKKK So happy to see you again buddy!

[@raultraje]

He’s Back!!!!!!!!🎉🎉

[@powerblindtest1978]

Come on dude, you're the best. I hope you will do more analysis on BCS season 06 ^^.

[@Evilforzapalermo]

Hei, so nice to see you! Thanks for another insightful breakdown, the BCS production should give you an award or something

[@corrystucki3874]

We are still waiting. Thank you John for the best breakdowns

[@elisabettat4632]

Soooo happy to find a new amazing and smart analysis of yours! Thank you! The one about “week/weak”: omg!

[@kimiantonellifan]

Hopefully John will return soon 😞 it gave me hope with this one. Miss these videos. Legend.

[@drdramatik]

And when everyone lost hope, he came back! I LOVE these breakdowns so much, I was just rewatching some a few days ago!

[@raymonddickson4295]

Your breakdowns are as timeless as the show

[@guendoloena1]

Start from the beginning season one, I love your videos

[@m.edisonhatt9136]

I am so glad you're back, I thought maybe you had abandoned ship, so glad to be wrong can't wait to hear your latest breakdown!

[@ryanayers1620]

These breakdowns add so much color to the show for me... thank you!

[@cormacliotta122]

I watch a lot of KZbin and I can say confidently this has to be one the best channels on the entire platform. So glad you’re back!

[@TJ-928]

When the world needed him most!! Johnny my boy! Sorry I'm stoked to watch this and super stoked to see a new post!

[@Zinjo]

YEAAAHH!!!! So excited for another BCS breakdown from a guy more observant than I'll ever be

[@bezolsmate]

babe wake up there's a new Basement Breakdown

[@wooster1173]

Hallelujah, he is back !!! Gosh, I am only half way through, and I need to say that is an analysis masterpiece.

[@Hysteria98]

Still really enjoying these, will be almost as sad for it ending as the show itself. Looking forward to it.

[@EpicRavenclaw42]

And now begins my waiting game for the next breakdown. Amazing and insightful as always!

[@teenariley7961]

I’ve seen what others have said about this episode and yet, you STILL surpass them in what they viewer missed and continue to offer up another aha moment for us to ponder. NO ONE DOES IT LIKE YOU!!! Although the show is over (and I continue to mourn that reality over a year ago,) I welcome your insight!!!!!

[@ManuelGuinand]

Amazing as always! The best analysis of BCS on the whole Internet! NAMAST3!

[@Heavenira]

28:30 yeah this line from Kim felt really off to me. i was churning through with my own interpretations, i kinda disregarded them because I figured there was some significance to Kim's line here?

[@ryans5299]

Glad to see you back on my feed, thanks for making these videos, they're awesome!

[@defnotatroll]

LOVE THESE VIDEOS. So eye opening. I realize I've missed 90% of the actual episode haha

[@juliusholstein2376]

These analysis videos are ridiculously good.
