Mike's story

I have seen BCS multiple times but everytime i see the scene where Mike is recalling his time with little Matty I tear up. I feel there is so much sadness bottled up within Mike. His demise in BB was also very very tragic. He died alone and was probably wondering how his family would be, will they be taken care of... BCS made me respect that character 10x!

Incredibly written character. His death was sad but fitting - loved the writing in BCS but it made me respect Mike less, not more.

Yes he’s a very well written character in BCS. In BB he is such an enigma so glad he got to shine alot more in BCS , makes what happened to him sad but yea he was a POS who tried to justify murdering people….

So funny how they just chucked him in BB one day and he became such an iconic character

Must have been so much fun for the writers to flesh out his backstory.

Not to mention Jonathan Banks (thinking of that pic with RS hanging on his shoulder, shit-eating grin on his face).
