‘The Lizzie Borden Chronicles’ Interviews Pt 1: Writers Small & Blaney
  |  @   |  

The Lizzie Borden Chronicles debuted on April 5th, 2015, on Lifetime, as a continuation of the Lifetime movie, Lizzie Borden Took An Ax. It tells the fictionalized story of what life was like for the Borden sisters, Lizzie and Emma (Christina Ricci and Clea DuVall), after the sensational trial of the murder of their parents, of which Lizzie was acquitted. As can be expected, life in Fall River was not ponies and rainbows, but chock full of more death and tons of blood.

Geeks of Doom got the chance to speak with 3 of the writers (Part 2 with David Simkins posts Monday) of this campy series (think 1890s Evil Dead-y), and while they didn’t give us spoilers, they did give us some insight into the story process, Christina Ricci’s dynamite input, and how lucky they were with the fantastic casting.

Last night saw the Season 1 finale of AMC’s Better Call Saul, Episode 1.10 “Marco,” which tied up all the loose ends of this debut season. We saw more of Jimmy McGill’s (Bob Odenkirk) past and the type of man he was when he was “Slippin’ Jimmy” the con man; we learned more about his best friend and con partner Marco, who he goes to see again in Illinois after the devastating reveal from Episode 1.9; and we get a glimpse of the direction that Jimmy is going in for Season 2.

Now that Season 1 has come to a close, the cast and creators are taking a look at what’s to come in Season 2 with a new 4-minute video, which you can watch here below.

‘Better Call Saul’: Inside 1.10 ‘Marco’ Season Finale (Video)
  |  @   |  

The Season 1 finale of AMC’s Better Call Saul, Episode 1.10 “Marco,” aired Monday night and it served mostly as an epilogue of sorts to the previous episode, which revealed what has been standing in Jimmy’s (Bob Odenkirk) way all these years.

The network has released the “most talked about scene” from the episode, which sees Jimmy talking to Mike in his parking clerk booth about what they could have done different in the Kettlemans situation. AMC has also released a behind-the-scenes featurette that’s a 5-minute “Inside Look” at the episode that brings us from the HMM law offices to Cicero, IL where Jimmy meets up with his old pal, Marco, and back.

You can watch all the videos here below.

TV Review: Better Call Saul 1.10 “Marco” Season Finale
  |  @   |  

Better Call Saul
Episode 1.10 “Marco”
Directed by Peter Gould
Written by Peter Gould
Starring Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Michael McKean, Rhea Seehorn, Patrick Fabian, Kerry Condon
AMC
Air Date: Monday, April 6, 2015, 10pm

It’s been 10 episodes of Better Call Saul and all season long, we’ve been wondering how Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) went from Slippin’ Jimmy the con man to Jimmy McGill, Esq., graduate of online law school University of American Samoa, to criminal lawyer Saul Goodman on AMC’s Breaking Bad. In tonight’s season finale, Episode 1.10 “Marco,” all the details have been revealed and all the dots have been connected.

More so than ever, we see that Jimmy is a criminal at heart — but it’s a good heart. If you think of Mike Ehrmantraut’s (Jonathan Banks) speech in Episode 1.9 after the drug deal about “good criminals and bad cops, bad priests and honorable thieves,” we see the analogy to Jimmy. This is a man who’s smart and quick on his feet; people like him and are drawn to him; he’s a good talker; he can convince people to do things — but what to do with those powers? According to Jimmy’s brother Chuck (Michael McKean), Slippin’ Jimmy with a law degree is dangerous. And he’s right, a Slippin’ Jimmy who knows the law is someone to watch out for.

In this week’s installment of Better Call Saul, Episode 1.9 “Pimento,” Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) has some extreme highs and some very low lows as he deals with the class-action law suit and the possibility of partnering up with his brother Chuck (Michael McKean) and Chuck’s law partner Howard Hamlin (Patrick Fabian). Meanwhile, Mike (Jonathan Banks) takes on a side gig as muscle to make big money fast.

For the next installment, Episode 1.10 “Marco,” which is the Season 1 finale, AMC has released a sneak peek, which centers on Jimmy meeting up with Kim and facing the consequences of the deal with Hamlin.
