What's new

"Better Call Saul" Premiere This Sunday!

Yes, but that doesn't mean you should watch it first.

Even just in the pilot episode of BCS there are lots of things you won't understand if you haven't seen BB. It would still be enjoyable, but you wouldn't understand everything you ideally should.

Watch it in the order it was intended to be watched in: the order it was made.

Alright thanks bro, I've ran out of decent series to watch so Breaking Bad's my next target.

I think this must be the case. I was confused by the 1st 2 episodes. I'll probably go back and watch them if I ever do watch Breaking bad. Still BCS is a great show. Just took me longer to get into the show that a fan of BB probably would have. I almost stopped watching after the 1st 2 episodes because it was hard to follow.
 
i cant even imagine watching saul without knowing the breakin bad info.
its def. much better after watching breakin bad.
for Mike, if nothin else.
 
Kind of think BCS would be better without having any preconceived notions of who Saul/McGill is.

Hmmm, could be, it is kind of interesting knowing the end game from the beginning though.
 
So what's going to happen with this big case?

Jimmy ****s it up by doing something illegal?

Chucks ****s it up because of his condition?

Jimmy loses the case to HHM because the clause doesn't cover class action cases?

I just got a feeling this case isn't going to go Jimmy's way at all.

Now Mike is getting back into the doing illegal **** business too. That should make for some interesting episodes.

I'm definitely expecting this to be the case.
 
I'm surprised Nacho still hasn't made his return. Looks like it might not happen till the last episode of the first season.

I miss the Kettlemans. They seemed like a couple out of a Coen Bros film or something.

I like the show, but it kinda feels like it hasn't quite found its footing as quickly as I had hoped. There's been a lot more plot threads than I was expecting. It's like there's a few episodes that largely deal with the Kettleman case, then we have with some Nacho/Tuco ****, then there's the Philly PD stuff, now there's this other big case... I feel like the show is doing a lot of bouncing around. It's not as fluid as BB up to this point. But we'll see what the show amounts to after the whole season is finished. Maybe all the pieces will seem to fit together better at that point.

Breaking bad was the best tv show I had ever seen......... until I saw true detective

Breaking Bad had a more clear goal early on too: Walt has to make enough $$$ selling meth before he dies of cancer.

2 more episodes left.

Maybe Jimmy is offered a finders fee for the case by Hamlin, which he initially refuses and fights, but then gives in once Nacho returns and starts ****ing with him. Jimmy then uses the finder's fee for the case to pay Mike to deal with Nacho?
 
I guess since we all know the end result of BCS they can get away with being less focused and telling the story more loosely.

Looks like next week might be another Mike-centric episode.

That dude is humongous

I don't think we know the end of BCS. Vince Gilligan has said the BCS timeline is pre, present, and post Breaking Bad. I'm pretty sure the show doesn't end with Saul in Omaha.

NOTE: The following contains major Breaking Bad SPOILERS. If you haven't seen the show, you are encouraged to watch before reading further.

I think the opening scene of BCS with Saul at the Cinnabon takes place either while Walt is still hiding in New Hampshire or possibly just before Walt kills all the neo-Nazis and dies on the floor of Todd's meth lab. Saul went into hiding out of fear for his life, Huell was missing and he thought he was next. When Saul finds out Walt is dead along with the neo-Nazis he will no longer fear for his life and will return to Albequerque and deal with whatever legal issues remain. He will also return to provide some assistance to Brock, Andrea's son, for whom he helped pay rent and living expenses. Where it goes from there, who knows? Of course, this is all just speculation, but I don't think we can say with any assurance exactly how or during what timeframe BCS will end.

It was after Walt died. He looked to have gained weight and lost a lot of hair.

A few months working at Cinnabon could dough up anybody's waistline. Good point on the hair though, it does seem like that is meant to show some passage of time, possibly years. Still, my speculations on a return to Albuquerque aside, I don't think there's any reason to assume Omaha has to be the end of the road for Saul. Maybe that's just wishful thinking though, hoping for some kind of redemption for him.
