At first, I understood his character and how he played him. You could wind him up like a toy robot and there he would go, head jerking about, eyes avoiding & searching, stammering, etc. But man, he could have seamlessly stepped from the pilot episode to the season 2 finale in the same workday. It would have been more authentic if the actor had added some variety to his character even just a wee bit of development would have been applauded. All his head and eye movements screamed DECEPTION, in every scene and situation. I don't understand how these people could trust & follow him. Even when he states a fact he seems to lie. A scene opens, Cal sees or learns something, and we see panic and a brain moving almost out of control. Cal was the worst, and I thought his portrayal unraveled when I noticed that he reacted the same way to every situation. As it progressed, problems with the story and actors emerged. It was believable and things were moving along well. His Eddie has a mysterious past and some of his emotional reactions reminded me of his former character. It was a pleasure to see Aaron Paul again this even seemed like an adult version of Jesse Pinkman.

Things were revealed and the actors portrayed the characters well. The entire first season developed well, was entertaining, suspenseful, and I looked forward to each new episode. I was fascinated at the beginning, learning the story of this particular 'movement'.

I binge-watched this from beginning to end (s02 e13).
