The Television Academy does not currently give an Emmy to the Most Outstanding Ponytail in a Scripted Series.
Its a reflection of who Kim is and who she wants to be.
Oh, and on top of all that: That thing is just flawless.
No strand is out of place.
Its a total power pony.
But the ponytail, by nature, also has a whiff of girlish energy about it.
Kims ponytail is her signature, but its also something bigger than that.
In the real world, her ponytail has inspiredReddit threads, fodder forPinterestboards, and general fan obsession.
Its like the ponytail is aBetter Call Saulcharacter all of its own.
Which it kind of is, isnt it?
But the most important function Kim Wexlers ponytail serves is that of truth-teller.
Thats been happening more frequently since the events that transpired at the end of season three.
Not surprisingly, the answer is not much.
This is a huge moment for Kim, one thats played with perfectly deployed fury by Seehorn.
It shows how loyal she is to Jimmy and how hurt she is on his behalf.
