He gets the job done and at the end of the day, as bloody and philandering and as it may be, he returns home to be the rock of his family. Only instead of working for the mob, Ray Donovan works for attorneys. Ray (played by Liev Schreiber) does the dirty work beyond the sensibilities of two nebbish partners, Ezra Goodman (played by Elliott Gould) and Lee Drexler (played by Peter Jacobson) dispatch him as “fixer” while staying behind at their lavish office or by the pool. While Ray makes his living by excising a price for his fixing, the money is nothing close to that made off of his deeds by the partners while shrouding themselves in ignorance.

  • Better Call Saul's Portrayal of Electrical Sensitivity
    Better Call Saul is the movie industry's first attempt at portraying electrical sensitivity Better Call Saul has the first fictional character with electrical hypersensitivity (EHS) on film and television. We review the three seasons where he appears, which is a mixture of facts and myths about the illness, but also some excellent filming and acting. Keywords: Better Call Saul, review, Chuck McGill, Michael McKean, Vince Gilligan, electrical sensitivity, electromagnetic hypersensitivity, fiction, television, Hollywood The first season of Better Call Saul aired in 2015. The main character is James "Jimmy" McGill who is a lawyer with a criminal background. He is a small-time operator in Albuquerque, New Mexico where he is struggling to make ends meet and stay on the ethical side of the law. One prospective client rejects hiring him by saying that he is "the kind of lawyer guilty people hire." Chuck McGill is Jimmy's older brother and everything Jimmy isn't. He is the senior partner in a large and successful law firm. He is highly respected, extremely smart and with a keen sense of what is proper behavior. Chuck is played by Michael McKean. 2 Better Call Saul As the series starts, Chuck has been sick for a year with extreme electrical hypersensitivity (EHS). He had to take a leave of absence from his law firm and isolate himself in his home where he has disconnected the electricity. He uses an ice chest as a refrigerator, a camping stove for cooking and Coleman (white gas/gasoline) camping lanterns for lighting. The story takes place in 2002.

  • Better Call Saul's “Chicanery”
    Better Call Saul’s “Chicanery” – An Analysis in Light of the Law Society of Newfoundland and Labrador’s Code of Professional Conduct Introduction Chicanery, as defined by the Oxford English Dictionary, is “the use of complicated plans and clever talk in order to trick people.” It is also the title of the fifth episode of the third season of the American network AMC’s Better Call Saul, a prequel to the network’s hugely popular Breaking Bad, which follows criminal lawyer Jimmy McGill in the years leading up to the events of Breaking Bad as he slowly loses the bearings on his moral compass and is transformed into “criminal” lawyer Saul Goodman. For context, the series opens with Jimmy McGill struggling to find his way as a sole practitioner. Jimmy was once a conman but after being saved from a jail stint by his morally upstanding older brother, Chuck, Jimmy vowed to change his ways. Chuck was a successful lawyer, and a founding partner of the prestigious Albuquerque law firm Hamlin, Hamlin, McGill. At the beginning of the series, Chuck is suffering from an “allergy” to electricity, that he refuses to admit is psychosomatic in origin, and is living as a recluse. Jimmy originally took a job as a mailroom worker at his brother’s firm and attended law school online through the University of American Samoa. Upon applying for a job at his brother’s firm and being rejected, Jimmy decided to go his own way. Over the course of the series Jimmy realized that many of his misfortunes had been manufactured by Chuck, who was always jealous of Jimmy.
