Better Call Saul


As I am sure many of y'all already know, a spinoff of "Breaking Bad" titled "Better Call Saul" will be airing in 2014. This is going to be a prequel to Breaking Bad and will be based on the character of Saul Goodman from "Breaking Bad."

I, for one, will be watching. I'm sure the majority of all of you other "Breaking Bad" fans will be as well. Might as well get the discussion going sooner rather than later.

So... what are your hopes, expectations and/or concerns with the show? Here are some of mine:

Hopes: I hope to see Saul do his thing in the courtroom. I hope to see strong, unique supporting characters. I hope to see Breaking Bad foreshadowing. I hope he has an intriguing paralegal and/or assistant. I hope to see Breaking Bad characters such as Fring, Mike, etc...whoever. I hope the show kicks ass.

Expectations: I don't expect it to be as good as "Breaking Bad" (because nothing else is, really), but I expect it to be good since Vince Gilligan is writing. I somewhat expect it to have an even balance of comedy and drama...since Saul undeniably provides a substantial amount of comedic relief in "Breaking Bad." I expect to see "courtroom Saul." I expect the "Breaking Bad" references and character cameos to be less than what I hope. If it isn't even a fraction as good as "Breaking Bad," I expect it to be better than 95% of everything else on TV, since there is some shitty shit on TV these days.

Concerns: I'd be a liar if I were to say that I didn't think this show has potential of flopping and certainly failing to meet the presumed high expectations of the audience. Don't get me wrong, I think it will be good... but I think it COULD suck if not executed properly. My main concern is Saul ultimately proving himself to be a "little dab will do ya" type of character, which would lead to a show centered around his character not working out. I am hoping that the character of Saul will not be so over-used and constantly over the top, that he becomes annoying to me, thus ruining his character for me altogether... Not saying I think this will be how it goes down...just saying I think there is a CHANCE of this being the case, which prompts me to believe that a strong supporting cast is VITAL in terms of the amount of success/quality this show will accumulate. All in all, I don't think VG will steer us in an unfortunate direction though...I think they'll pull it off.

Thoughts?

DISCUS!!!!

it's just a dumb story line with the Kim in trouble thing though when all she had to do is say "I had no idea he was going to air it!".
that's it. the end.

whatever...

I still chuckle every time I think of somebody's prev post where someone said...well you know Kim is gonna be gone at some point since she ain't in BB...and someone replied....yes she is....she's Sauls fat secretaty. HAHAHAHA! cracks me up man.

I wonder......Will Mike regret only going with a "Half-Measure" when it came to Tuco?

Nope, he won't. The dude that paid Mike will. I guarantee it, right after Los Pollos Hermanos is introduced.

I didn't realize Mike was a Vietnam Vet as implied by the rifle shopping scene. That man has quiet the resume. Weird seeing him getting beaten up.

I predict Kim just gets up and moves away for a 'new start' after attaching her law firm credibility to Saul.

Saul's one of those guys that can't seem to stay out of trouble. He subconsciously starts it even when things are going well.

Great show but I despise the pace at which the story develops. I think next season I"m just going to wait until it's over and binge watch.

If she said that it would have sold out that Jimmy knew he wasn't supposed to air it without permission. He'd lose plausible deniability.

There's something to say about binge watching over this trickle here, trickle there, I must admit. It's easier to track too. It's a little tough to follow at the beginning of new season, after a long spell before the next season.

well actually...she DIDN'T know! and he implied that the powers that be knew. so what Jimmy showed her the commercial.
look at it this way...if he'd have just waited til the boss got back and then showed him the commercial....the boss wouldn't have been mad that he made a 600 dollar commercial. he was mad that he AIRED it.

Kim being in trouble over this is just simply stupid and bad writing.
oh well...

I read an article today...an interview with Michael Mando (Nacho)...and like an idiot didn't post it in here....
anyways...in the interview he talks about this incident being a half measure that Mike will learn from. because as we BB watchers know...Tuco does get out eventually! he talks about Mikes evolution to what he is in BB...and this very incident....this half measure....well in his opinion it's a big part of it....he learns from it.

Cool Frank. One of my favorite scenes in BB is Mike telling Walt not to mess with half-measures.

yeah...went and looked up the half measures episode to refresh my memory on what went down.

Mike then tells Walt a story about confronting a chronic wife abuser back when he was a beat cop. Mike intervened, and almost killed the wife-beater, but gave in when the abuser promised to change his ways. Shortly thereafter the man beat his wife to death. Mike's mistake was to take a half measure when he should have killed the abuser. "No more half measures, Walter," he says referring to Jesse.
