Expecting Saul in episode 1, is like expecting Heisenberg in episode 1. We all had the same expectations when we watched for the first time. Sit back and enjoy the experience, ladies. Everything happens for a reason. Everything.
I might like BCS more than Breaking Bad.
I just started S2 dont get me hyped Andrew
Welcome to the ride! In many ways BCS is a different show to BB but the writing and drama is equally as gripping.
Tight...tight...tight...
Vince Gilligan is mostly involved only in the first season of BCS. After that it's Peter Gould who is the show runner. He co-created Breaking Bad with Vince. You shouted him out during the credits of one of the BB episodes lol.
Fun fact: Tuco was "cut" early from Breaking Bad, because the actor, Raymond Cruz, was busy with another show at the time, and couldn't shoot full time for BB, so they killed him off and invented Gus. But when they started writing BCS years later, they had the opportunity to have him back.
I thought the actor Raymond Cruz asked to be killed off because the role drove him mad?
Loved your reaction!!! Anyone who thinks the first season is slow is an insane person haha
its crazy how everyone hates tuco but still hype af to see him again after so many seasons lol
Here we go 🔥
Saul mentioned his real name in one of the Breaking Bad episodes. "My real name's McGill. The Jew thing I just do for the homeboys."
Yep, in his first episode when he meets Walter.
better call saul is pretty borin until season 4 and 5. Its a very slow pace
🧢
Jimmy is definitely a boy and this show is made for you. As usual, you caught things about his character that I don’t see many people do. This is gonna be fun to watch along.
I feel like by the end of this series the "boy" count is going to be five times as much as Breaking Bad
Get ready for a great ride!
The black and white part in the beginning takes place after Breaking Bad. Saul even called it out in his last episode, saying that he was going to be a Cinnabon manager in Nebraska.
Also an important bit of info if you didn't catch, the check that Jimmy put up to the glass after the opening court scene is dated 2002, so this show is set 6 years before the start of BrBa
Yessssss I'm so envious of you guys watching this for the first time
The beginning shot was after Breaking Bad. He once said to Walt "if I am lucky, I will end up managing a Cinnabon". That is exactly what he was doing.
I'm so excited!! I'm going to force myself to hold off until the full-length one is uploaded, though.
I knew you ladies were going to flip out! :)
If you thought Breaking Bad was well written, just wait for this masterpiece. All I will say is, don't go in expecting Breaking Bad. This show is written much differently (imo even better) and stands on its own two feet. The quality never stops increasing. Enjoy!!
Yeah the intro is after Breaking Bad. There are signs in the Cinnabon saying that they are in Omaha, Nebraska, which is where Ed was sending him. Also one of the last things that Saul says to Walter is that if he lucky his best case scenario is that he'll be a manager at Cinnabon.
FYI that beginning sequence was indeed after Breaking Bad.
Season one is a little slow, tbh. But it gets better. Much better.
Wooohooo!!! You guys are in for a fun ride that I cant wait to watch!!!
