OK, so I see there is a long-running Walking Dead thread, and that there was a Breaking Bad thread, both of which mention good ol' Saul.
But I think Slippin' Jimmy deserves his own thread as much as his own show.
(And if you haven't watched yet, probably spoilers below)

So, thoughts on the first three episodes so far?
One thought: this EMR-based "disability" or whatever that Jimmy's brother has, is that just mental illness / tinfoil hat (or suit!) stuff, or is there some actual known physical disorder?
Another thought: it's supposed to be what, 2002 or so? Did they even have those stupid family stick figure stickers for car windows then?
Also, predictions?
I figure Jimmy will offer a deal to the Kettlemans where he takes a big cut of the loot in return for representing them as innocent (he can't let the HHM law firm represent them, not if he wants the dough)...though I'm not sure how that explains the missing money. Jimmy will offer Nacho a cut to shut up and take the rap (and maybe a short jail stay) for a simple B&E on the Kettlemans' house; Nacho will take the deal, but demand more later...and certainly get Jimmy involved in some deeper **** over time. Mike will sniff this out and demand a cut, too, though Jimmy will surely want something from Mike for that, maybe to get rid of his Nacho problem. So Jimmy will have expended a lot of effort and broken a bunch of laws, ultimately for just a little bit of money (seems to be his MO at the moment).
(Maybe all of that is obvious...I kinda hope I'm wrong and the plot is NOT going to be so obvious!)
