Ok, for all those Breaking Bad Fans out there, Better Call Saul is out and the 3rd episode will be out this coming Tuesday (For the UK anyway, not sure about the US).
So far it has been fabulous! If you have not seen it, here is the Trailer:
The Saul you see in the first few scenes of episode 1, show the criminal attorney in what seems to be after the events of Breaking Bad as he is now working as at a Cinnabon in Omaha, Nebraskaon. He definitely seems worse for wear, which is emphasized when Saul is seen to spend his off time drinking and watching his old TV commercials from when he was successful. It also portrays Saul as more cautious and jumpy now that he is not a criminal attorney.
It then jumps to his past before he became Saul Goodman but was instead known as Jimmy McGill.
With the first two episodes displaying Jimmy McGill’s struggle in making it as a small time attorney; his attempt in organizing a scam with 2 skateboarding hustlers in order to get a client; and how Saul becomes acquainted with Tuco. (In a life-threatening situation, whereby Jimmy McGill has to persuade Tuco not to kill him or his two skateboarding hustlers)- This bit definitely puts you on the edge.
We are also introduced to Chuck his brother, who is suffering from a mental breakdown. In addition to this we see Chuck’s law firm is ripping him off- Reason he changes his name maybe?
It finally ends on a point whereby Nacho Varga one of Tuco’s henchmen, leaves Saul to make a decision as to whether to follow his conscious, or follow the money- Which would you pick?
Let me know what your views of Better Call Saul are in the comments below 😀
