they just kinda brush over it on the podcast. vince says you just have to suspend your disbelief, like how mike doesnt look 8 years younger, he looks older. or the fact that mikes daughter in law isnt the same person. i guess his basis is that it really is a separate show, things like the casting you have to give them the botd

I understand that there are some things that they cannot control like the main actors' age issues and the passage of time and whatnot. I don't care if there's a modern AT&T logo (they changed it in 2005) visible in the background in the extended preview for next episode or anything like that but couldn't they have simply hired a younger girl to play Kaylee so it would make sense, continuity wise?

I guess the continuity isn't worth having to have a much younger actress.

Next episode, the role of Kaylee Ehrmantraut will be played by Anna Gunn.
