For me there is nothing wrong in essence with its lack of direction - or, more accurately, knowing exactly what direction it is going in because we know how things turn out for Saul. This show is more about the journey than the destination: Saul is a funny character and there is plenty of scope for entertainment following his career as it develops. But this is why I always thought this show was going to be lighter and a bit more overtly comic, it seemed the more obvious structure if the show was basically going to be a series of encounters between Saul and the town's criminals as he establishes himself as this corrupt and fast-talking defense lawyer. Having said that it works well the way it is, for me. I still dont think it fundamentally matters that we know where the show is going to end up, there is plenty of scope for drama along the way and Im still enjoying it a lot - though I agree ep 4 was the weakest so far.
