Better Call Saul

The trials and tribulations of criminal lawyer, Saul Goodman, in the time leading up to establishing his strip-mall law office in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Highly recommended IMO

I felt the same way, until I realized the pacing and overall "goal" of this series is different. The fact it's a prequel also forces its hand to an extent: obviously they can't kill off any characters that were alive on Breaking Bad, nor create too many important ones that never show up later (Lalo was only mentioned in a single scene), nor show any highly dramatic events that become similarly forgotten. Speaking of which, it'll be interesting to find out what happens to Kim here, considering she was completely absent from the original...

Anyway, the last season has arrived, now I just need to make some time to start it!

I suppose this is the end of the BB universe. Vince Gillian mentioned his next project will not be related to BB just to show that he can, supposedly.

It was a good show, I really enjoyed it. To think Saul Goodman would've never have existed without his brother, Charles. Most of time, the people around us make us who we are. If Charles would have accepted him into his firm, he would've become just another law-abiding lawyer. And his own brother - this makes it even worse.

It's better to quit while you're ahead rather than going on and on until your work becomes a mockery of itself. Case in point: The Simpsons... and let's not forget that even so, anything Gilligan gets involved with from here onwards is going to be judged by how it measures against Breaking Bad and its extended universe.

Can't say more, as I haven't even started the new season yet
