- So glad I finally got around to watching in my opinion one of the best spinoffs ever created! Like I say in the video I hope Gilligan considers doing another spinoff after he's done a couple other things, but if not then I'm more than okay with how Better Call Saul wrapped things up.
Make sure to leave a like and sub, have a great day everyone!

Howard Hamlin deserved better. Nothing else needs to be said.
you know that ultimately, just like walter, saul too was the anti-hero of his story and the death of howard was the final straw for making everyone know that this was the case.
Yes 😢i was so shocked he got killed
@@annoyedbrox4851 That specifically was more of Kim's fault though.
@@Xpwnxage both were equally to blame
Howard Hamlin was a prick who deserved to die. People saying it was “undeserved” really pisses me off
Best prequel ever written and shot! Really good writing and acting!
True masterpiece
Better Call Saul ? ❤️✅🔥I keep telling all my friends and coworkers this is a really damn good show just simply beautiful the cinematography the directing the actors the writing the plot just everything is so damn good
Agreed. Hooked from the very first episode.
prequel and sequel
Just remember who you’re working for.
What’s even better is Bob wasn’t able to film for the episode where Jane dies so that’s when they created Mike’s character and thank God they did. He’s one of the best characters in the universe.
Yep
Actually crazy how they have these top characters like saul and mike without planning them
The color theory blew my mind!!!!!!! It gave such a different approach to the blue flower when Nacho kills himself. I’ve always tried to give some meaning to that scene but never could grasp it. I finally did. Amazing video!
**blew my mind** **kills himself**
😭
This show makes me happy to live in a time where we have such amazing actors and directors....
This is so true. I really think that these shows will go into syndication and lots of people will watch them, again. Comedies dominated the 70s and 80s, but dramas dominate today. Saul and BB were great!
5:15 - The medic’s name is Rosa Estrada and the second medic on the scene was Angie Meyer. Bob thanks them by name whenever he gets the chance, like in interviews on late night shows. He’s gracious and grateful for Estrada’s and Meyer’s skill and care.
Isn’t just one of the best prequels ever made, it is THE best prequel ever made. I keep telling my die hard breaking bad fan friends that they would absolutely love all six seasons of Better Call Saul. I keep telling them, “It’s basically Breaking Bad part negative 1” but the main character is our beloved Jimmy McGill AKA Saul Goodman 😁 come on it’s set in the BrBa universe with most of the characters from BrBa minus Walt and his family. Minus a cameo or two from Jessie and Walt ❤️
If you tell people it's like brba they go into it expecting brba and it gives a bad example I think
@@gromitx1682 No it doesn’t the friends should know not to expect Heisenberg and Jesse like cmon
@@CIeaner23 but better call Saul is a LOT more slow paced than breaking bad it's like the first episode of breaking bad Walt kills 2 guys it's crazy
I'm really happy I first watched BCS and then BB
It's not slow, it just doesn't have much action. The story completely goes through with no filler@@ryenbenbow5060
Not even gonna lie; #24 - Not knowing about the red and blue symbolism made me teary-eyed seeing Nacho's flower.
This is #1 in my shortlist of favorite tv series. Great content, my friend!
Watching Nacho die was a huge punch in the gut for me. I really liked him. He was always a good person IMO he just got caught up in bloody and dangerous line of work.
This is def my favorite fun fact about the show that I will tell everyone I meet from now on
same
Or the flashback of Mike with his son when he wrote his name in the wet concrete. You really understand Mike s pain of loosing his little boy... heartbreaking
Lol teary eyed? Seriously? Nacho wasn’t a good person.
The cast living together definitely gave them gravity.
Was more polished as the writers knew the objective and didn’t need to burn a season or 2 finding their stride.
I love the scene between Jesse and Kim Wexler sharing a smoke outside Saul's office - the only thing missing / plot hole was knowing Jesse there is NO WAY he doesn't hit on her
???? Jesse never really did that?… lol
Same. I love that it shows that titan drug lord just enjoying a smoke casually during a rainstorm.
She's like twice his age though
@@evauwu5190 he's not afraid of a cougar
@@evauwu5190 Kim was born on February 13th, 1968, Jesse was born on September 14, 1984.. it's only a 16 year age difference (ages 40 & 24 or 41 & 25 when they meet)
Vince Gilligan is a fucking genius, but Peter Gould is ALSO a goddamn fucking genius. People does not give him enough credit, he came out with the Saul Goodman character.
Saul didn't have the intensity or pure adrenaline rush that Breaking Bad had from the get go. What made BB so insane was it's unpredictability. With BCS we knew the demise or survival of certain characters. So when Tuco had Jimmy in the desert in episode 2? There was no real intensity as to what was going to happen.
However, we didn't know what was going to happen to Chuck, Howard, Lalo, Nacho or Kim as they didn't appear in BB. So once we got to the final season, that was the same intensity that BB provided.
For this reason, I think BCS is actually better written than BB. Gould & Gilligan had go out of their way to create a story that would make sense, fit & not ruin continuity. To my knowledge, the only thing that is different is the age of Kaley Ermantraut from BB to Saul. Which I got over pretty quickly.
But it was great to find out how Hector got in the wheelchair. Just a magnificent 12 seasons of tv (and El Camino getting thrown in too).
Better Call Saul is like that son who gives meaning to his dad
@@omegajrz1269 Love it.
@@seventallguitarist It's true. Breaking Bad was interesting. But Better Call Saul makes people much more interested in that universe.
@@omegajrz1269 100% agree. The story in Breaking Bad (Walt's story) was captivating and intense. Better Call Saul is way more about the characters and how Jimmy became Saul & the 3 big questions of why weren't Kim, Lalo and Nacho in the BB timeline.
I love BB. I've watched it a dozen times. Saul is deeper. More interesting. As you said.
@@seventallguitarist Better Call Saul is more implicit. It's more of show and not tell. It seems like nothing is happening and several things are happening at the same time in each scene. With a level of depth and metaphors similar to the misunderstood episode Fly from Breaking Bad
One time-period-specific detail they got wrong: Nacho's fake Manitoba IDs were the blue, plastic, one-piece type of license that was rolled out in 2006/2007. In the time that the show was set, Manitoba had green two-piece licenses, comprising a paper certificate and a laminated photo ID. Nacho's fakes also use an image of a bull rather than a bison, and the font used for "Manitoba" isn't quite accurate, though these changes may have been intentional so they didn't look real enough to be used for nefarious purposes.
Great job, The Why! Particularly love that you gave props to Rex Lynn. He was so good. Like... perfect. He was so good that he made scenes better that he wasn't even in. The classic hilarious scene where Jimmy wants Kim to tell him about her meeting w/ Kevin: "Well, you never told me that he was a side sitter. And that is gold." "Do he talk like this?" Those lines are fuckin' hilarious because, of course, Odenkirk. But in this case, they come off as perfect as they do because we're picturing/hearing Lynn as much as listening/watching Jimmy describe/mock him. Lynn laid the groundwork there; for me, he's actually in that scene. Seriously incredible. Better Call Saul is the greatest work ever produced for television. Endless love and respect for all things BCS.
I wish rex was in it more. I feel like they could have done more with him. He also transformed. He started off as this boy scout happy go lucky ceo to becoming a very angry assertive dude and rightfully so and with that being said they could have done more with him to push back against Jimmy or something. Shit they could even do a spin-off with him lmao
The cinematic intros that follow onto each other are highly underrated.
Loved both shows, and I look forward to what Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould come up with next. I'm hoping it will be a brand new show. As much as I loved BCS and BB, my small brain was exhausted from trying to make/remember all the connections between the two shows. Such intelligent, slick shows. Let's get a whole new one with new characters so my brain doesn't hurt so much!
Dude, 18 min of CPR and 3 shocks and he says “small heart attack”
That may have been for the benefit of his kids. Scary stuff.
19:28 forgot the most biggest call back of all! in breaking bad when walt and saul are sharing a room waiting to disappear, saul tells walt something along the lines of turning himself in, confessing and holding his head up high, which is exactly what saul does in the end
I could binge Saul again right now. That would make it even with Bad at 3 times.
I sometimes watch BCS and BrBa twice a year each. But usually just once a year each. They’re both so good very re watchable I love it
@@wattsnottaken1 I also watch them once a year, its a tradition 😂
BCS is the GOAT❤ I cried after the finale, not just because it was poignant but because I'll miss these people and this world. I mean, the attention to detail is incredible. The way SPOILER that the ash on the cigarette was glowing in the B&W scene between Saul & Kim at the end, representing, IMO, the flame of their eternal bond, was beautiful. I'd be thrilled with a spinoff of BCS, perhaps featuring Kim Wexler, one of the best female characters on TV, ever. Up there with Agent Dana Scully. I'm rambling...
the theory that he wanted to be caught is also upheld by him taking that prison sentence
When I saw your title , I thought, challenge accepted. As a huge fan of BCS, I doubted you'd have many facts I didn't already know. As it turns out, though, 28 facts were new to me! Fun video. Well done on the deep dive!
Even as a german i would never have recognized the detail on the construction workers jersey. Amazing how deep they went into accuracy! ♥
My 6 favourites in the entertainment genre?
Paul, John, George, Ringo, Vince and Peter.
Great recap. Even though the show has been over for awhile now, i love learning new stuff about it.
I remember seeing the news that Bob had a heart attack. Would be such a tragedy to lose such an amazing actor/director so soon.
Cinabonne was overjoyed with the free commercial.... Jello didn't agree to use their trademark...
well, at least now I know why are the cinammon rolls the first snack that pops to my mind... and not a jello LOL
I loved this show my favorite characters (Mike and Saul). I was happy to get more of my man Mike and delighted with the cameos. So many new characters to love To boot. The ending was excellent.
I need a series focusing on Gus Fring and the Salamancas story.
"chuck and jimmy's relationship carried the show" fuck me dead, such insight
In the opening sequence of season 6 one of the workers put the standee of Saul in the dumpster too. As much as I would like to see more BB universe, everyone has aged too much to make it possible. But never doubt Mr Gilligan
19:11 He raised good kids too! We need more like Bob.
Amazing video, thank you for the upload. Hope the algorithm treats you well 🙏🏾
We need a Salamanca Don Eladio spinoff set in the 70s-90s
I don't think it would work. the Salamancas and Don Eladio are just too evil. They're too one note. Both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul featured characters that were, at some point, on the fence of good and evil. The closest we got to that was Nacho, and that's been put to bed.
Tbh it was hard watching the later seasons of BCS because of how bad jimmy has it out for howard. He was a good person and never really intentionally try to do jimmy any wrong. It was kind of heart breaking seeing his fall from grace.
Off topic but still wanna mention this: I think Cinnabon's marketing strategy paid off really well because I never really heard of Cinnabon until BCS. Then when I was in the mall awhile ago there was a Cinnabon there and I decided to try their cinnamon rolls and fell in love with them! Now I get one every time time I go to the mall!
Although I watched it to the end, and enjoyed it, I felt like the hatred that Jimmy had for Howard was forced. Jimmy had broken him already. It wasn't in his nature to be that cruel. You could say that Kim enticed him into it, but she had also previously beaten Howard by blazing her own trail of success. She even got to pay him back for the college loan, and he kindly refused, mentioning that it was a gift.
This video was so good that I need to go have a cig. Liked and subscribed👍
They don’t make shows this good anymore!
Thank you for actually showing me something I didn’t know. I feel like these lists are usually all the same shit. So truly thank you 🙏🏻
Im so glad i could watch this show when i did. I binged the first five and a half seasons, then wait less than 2 weeks for the second half to start, and to be a part of the hype of the finale. It was such a cool couple of months
Omg Same
I can easily see the series continue with him in jail, helping other inmates with insights on their cases, and eventually planning a con to get a legal loop hole for his release with Kim's help. It might be best as a movie, but... that would never happen. The series ending has too much gravitas.
Yeah, I think if Jimmy returned to Slippin' Jimmy in prison, it'd just cheapen the finale, as much as I'd like to see that
That would remove any weight to the ending
Watching Walter tell someone else ' they've always been this way ' is a great nod to his own denial and origin.
Great video. Love the info.
That’s for some great insights. Even as an avid fan some were new to me
Thank you for the show 😢 more please. Younger mike/Salamanca
Loved the show. The ending was a pleasant suprise
We need a gritty 70s cop drama about Mike next
Yes! I always hoped they would do this.
Best Better Call Saul curiosities video!
Any which way you look at this….I feel so lucky to have had the privilege of watching these two programs at the hand of a cinematic genius!!! Thank you….hail to you SIR!!!!
Both shows are great. Elite writing with plot and character development that we rarely see today.
BCS excels, because not only does it set up BB, it's also just as good as a stand alone series as well. We get to meet new characters that brought BB into being, and see old characters from BB in seasons 5-6. I love BB but BCS is almost on two other levels. PS Howard deserved better.
Loved this show xx
I totally agree with your intro. It didn't hook me the first time because it's in a different gear u think it's not as good but then u go back when u are enamored with this world and it ends up being better than breaking bad wich is an amazing show
Chuck wigging out on the witness stand, is very reminiscent of Captain Queeg (Humphrey Bogart) breaking down on the witness stand in The Caine Mutiny.
Holy shit I just started breaking bad today I'm on episode 4 😂
You’re about to be addicted like meth

I thought I was the only one staying up late at night thinking about Kim's husband saying "Yup"! I mean how basic is this dude lol
That color symbolism was very interesting
Love this show!!!
You made me remember the onion bit😆
This is really good, but on the accuracy along with the 3 stars on the jacket you should've included the security guard and Saul discussing Nebraska football was all exactly correct for the seasons/years/players at the time he was in Omaha.
Two of the best shows of all time. And this video is VERY well done! I thought I was already subscribed as your voice sounds familiar; but I am subscribed with a like and comment now! Well done.
The first time I watched BCS, I thought the same as you but still finished it. I then watched it again and it was 100x better, just as you said.
This universe was such a wild ride. I love the cast.
Well, I guess it's true what they say - you can't spell "Saul Goodman" without "all good man!" But seriously, I learned so much from that video, it was like getting a crash course in Albuquerque law. Now if only I could find a way to bill my time spent watching it...
Warning: Our movie quizzes are so addictive, you might end up binge-watching them all night instead of actually watching movies
Jesse is still out there. I can see another Netflix, in about 2 or 3 years.
What surprised me the most is that Don Eladio isn't even a Salamanca... I thought they all were related xd
Good video👍🏻
My favorite series
Even to this very day I find myself wandering around the house, doing chores and whatnot, mumbling "Ziegler, Zeeeglier, Zieg-Ler!" 😂😂 My wife thinks I've lost it. 😂😂 Makes perfect sense to me.
Loved and Miss Better Call Saul!
The ending was lowkey sad asf
I had a 3 minor heart attacks in my widowmaker. It's the left anterior descending artery. It goes down just left of center of the heart.
the writers changed his name from KEITH to GENE... also Jimmy/Saul did not choose the name Gene, that is the name the Ed Galbraith gave him when he gave him his new identity, although we don't know whether or not Ed let him choose his new name - he already knew he was going to Omaha and to work at Cinnabon when he talked to Walter in the basement of the vacuum cleaner store so we can assume he already also knew his new identity and was practicing remembering it.... one plot hole with that (or maybe another reference to him wanting to get caught) is Jimmy/Saul telling Walter his new identity - or maybe he wanted Walter to be able to find him if he needed help in the future
Problem is that because it moves so slow, which was great the first time I watched it, it is not rewatchable. I mean like I still had to watch it twice to catch everything, but Breaking Bad I think I am on my 10th time through it. I did have to put a couple years between the last time I watched it and now, but it is much more rewatchable.
We Need The Fring Story Now Or Even The Whole Salamanca Background
Watching this series after breaking bad was fun because you see these new characters and wonder if they are still alive or not and what happened to them, Howard and Kim being the main ones always wondered where was Howard during BB … boy did I get a surprise. He was in the lab the entire time
In Namaste, S5E4, at 22:30 Saul’s arguing in court. He looks at Kim. They make eye contact and he nods. Then at about 22:35 he exhales and says, “Yeah, so,” and then continues with his examination. Call me crazy, but it sounds like they dubbed in Kim for those two words.
"That's what the kids call an epic failure"
great video but what’s this guga foods soundtrack goin on in the back lmaooo
I laughed when I saw that BCS was competing with Fear The Walking Dead 😅. At the end I got the same nostalgic feeling of when I saw the end of The Wire
You say the nail salon looks "surprisingly the same" as if all nail salons don't look exactly the same LMAO
I want to see another prequel: Gus and Peter Schuler, fighting with their backs against the wall in Santiago.
Lalo repeating „werner ziegler“ over and over again will never not make me laugh 😅
I love cinnomon buns man
We need a series about someone who gets cancer and brakes bad
I would love to see a spinoff about the Salamancas' back in the day.
sad to see it end
It’s arguably better than BB
How did they have so much attention to detail with the BankAmericard and MasterCharge logos on a door from the abandoned store, but managed to have 2010s cars in every other shot that took place on a street for a scene that is supposed to take place in the early-2000s?
On the tequila bottle: Kim goes back to her office to get the ornament from one of those bottles before leaving when she suddenly quit
Breaking Bad is the best show. Better Call Saul is either tied or close second.
I don't think either is better than the other. To me, it feels like a disservice to one or the other. I do like each because of what story they told, how they represented one another, and why I watch TV to begin with. I'm glad I got to see them both (and El Camino), and was thrilled, entertained, and enjoyed every minute of it.
The best spin off ever.
Why isn't there a pre-prequel about Mike starting out as a good cop in Philly and eventually turning crooked, which ultimately led to his sons murder and eventual move to Albuquerque?
That story practically writes itself.
7:23 Well... I thought I had recovered from that injury
I agree. This is the better of the two show. I always say this
Bravo Bince
Really hope somehow theres another season.
His car had one red door because it mimicked the New Mexico State Flag.
If they made another entry in the franchise I really hope it will be about Gustavo's backstory further back then BCS provided, like how Don Eladio and Don Hector both knew who he was before he came to Mexico but no one else could figure out who he is. My favorite theories were that he was potentially a Chilien War criminal
It’d be cool but I don’t think it’ll ever happen. Giancarlo is too old and I can’t see anyone playing Gus Fring besides him. One of the most unique characters of all time and one of the best actors of all time. My pick is a sequel, about the massive power vacuum in the drug world caused by Fring/Heisenberg killing all the competitors.
I can confirm all 👌
