There is also a link within that article to an interesting interview with actor Michael McKean's thoughts on the demise of Chuck, the character he plays in BCS.

It's funny. I felt the same way exact way.
And I was trying to figure out why?

Answer: lots of familiar pieces/characters from BB... Tie in's... explanations. Mysteries explained. Less stimulating second go round.

That could be a part of it.

Though I will say that the BB fan in me kind of marked out when some of the characters were introduced for the first time on this show just because of who and what they were in BB.

I think Mike's on screen absence in the final episode is by design to emphasize the impact of his off screen presence which took form in Gus's side eyes reaction to Nacho as the ambulance pulled away. It was because Mike had informed Gus of Nacho's plan. It's important for us to remember Mike and Gus are now in cahoots.

you know...wrestling fan thing. Where you get excited to see a character that you know and thought was great in a previous show. This was especially true for when they brought in Gus cause man he was awesome in BB.
