TheRinger.com put out another video featurette yesterday:


Peter Gould and Vince Gilligan, the creators or AMC’s 'Better Call Saul,' have mastered one of the toughest tasks in television and film: making a prequel or sequel that’s on par with the original. They’ve done that by focusing on the "how" part of who, what, when, where, why, and how. Even though the end point of 'Better Call Saul' is largely known, the show has incredible drama, which stems from the writing. 'Better Call Saul' has taken pieces of the 'Breaking Bad' universe and run with them to create the most well-written show on TV right now.

Damn, Gene got some serious Cinnabun cash to pay double :leon:

YOU DIDNT SEE THAT BAG OF DIAMONDS HE HAD?


it just struck me watching the cold opening...in el camino they foreshadowed saul's ending... ED told jesse walt and the lawyer made their own luck when jesse needed to get gone :damn::damn::damn::damn:

EL CAMINO TAKES PLACE IMMEDIATELY AFTER BB...

I STRONGLY DOUBT THESE GENE SCENES
TAKE PLACE BEFORE EL CAMINO
UNLESS SAUL WAS ONLY HIDING FOR
A FEW MONTHS BEFORE GETTING MADE.

Nah, this gotta be 2006 or 2007. The brother died within the first year, he was suspended a full year after that. And we know Saul is going to eventually reunite with Nacho which bleeds into Breaking Bad within the following year.

BCS STARTED IN MAY OF 2002...

JIMMY GETS DISBARRED IN FEB OF 2003.

BCS SEASON 5 STARTS IN MARCH OF 2004.

BB STARTS IN SEP OF 2008.

Nacho's storyline is intriguing to me. He risked prison for his pops going back into the stash spot, then he was talking about killing Krazy 8 to further gain Lalo's trust.

A part of me, thinks he'll go out in some ironic way where the show depicts how loyalty in that world doesn't mean much.

This Saul transformation is great. Dude is all in and firing on all cylinders. Breh told Kim he had 57 clients and she was :gucci:

bytch was low key hating.
Nah, she wasn't hating.

Saul is a solo practitioner that IIRC, doesn't even have a receptionist. No way he was going to be able to stay on top of all of those cases, attend hearings, draft pleadings, meet with clients, etc.

He had to pay someone to fukk up the elevators to clear a bunch of those cases out.

Jimmy always finds his way even tho he will use underhanded tactics but Kim can barely get on fukking pro bono client to take a good deal while Jimmy is knocking out 20 cases in a “broken” down elevator. Even at this point in the show dude is on another level and has ZERO issue scooping up clients that HHM and Kim would turn their noses at.

LMAO STOP IT.

SAUL IS A PIECE OF shyt.

ACCEPT HIM FOR WHAT HE IS
AND ENJOY IT.

SAULS CAREER WOULD BE OVER
WITHOUT KIM
AND THE LAVELLE CRAWFORD CHARACTER
WOULD BE IN JAIL WITHOUT HER.

WHAT IS THIS LEVEL YOU SPEAK OF?

:devil:

His love and loyalty for his pops is central to his character development tho.

He did that shyt with Hector's pills for his pops, he's going the extra mile to gain Lalo's trust for the sake of protecting his father. The snake shyt he's doing is due to circumstances and the pressure he's under.

idk, I just feel like he's a compassionate character for his family. Even with the Krazy 8 situation, he's not like some cold hearted killer. He implied he'd kill dude with Lalo, but he put that on the table because of the ultimatum that Gus gave him.

EDIT: To add on to this thought, I'm waiting to see if there will be an scenario where the tables are turned and Krazy 8 has to vouch for Nacho's life like he did briefly for his with Lalo. That's kind of what I'm getting at with my post

But if the only way you can handle the workload is using underhanded tactics, of course someone is going to question how you can handle it.

Kim struggling to get her pro bono client to accept a deal is exactly why she questioned Saul. She was going to have to prep for a trial because a client, who seemingly did the shyt, rejected a good deal.

What would've happened if 35 of Saul's clients did that?

Aye I like Saul wayyyyyyyy more than Jimmy. And while I give Kim props for holding Jimmy down, their situation was mutually beneficial. Remember, there was a time when both of them were riding the bench at HHM.
