I don't know why lol, but I always pictured it in my head as being a kind of sitcom of Saul's ducking and diving, and I assumed that it would be a ton of gags that would eventually start to feel overplayed, but it was so much better than that.

Yes! That was why I was unexcited when they announced the show. But wow, it's totally not that.

Huge agreement with everything you say. I guess I had no expectations going in, which is funny because BrBa is probably my favourite show of all time, and so everything that happened made me unreservedly happy.
