Most boring part, I wanted to skip it. That could have been said in 10 seconds.Originally posted by MrBottomToothThe best part of the show was the first 5 minutes showing what happened to him after the end of breaking bad. I wont spoil it.
Ps: I already forgot how did BB end for him? -
Yeah, I agree. Although the cameo at the end of the first episode makes me think we will see a lot more of the old cast from BB, which will definitely carry it, at least for the BB junkies.Originally posted by MrBottomToothThe best part of the show was the first 5 minutes showing what happened to him after the end of breaking bad.

Show looks interesting but not sure if Saul can carry it. He's more like comedic relief. Maybe it will get darker as it goes along.Comment

By the way, what did he provide for so much cash?Originally posted by MrBottomToothHe used the services of the guy who makes people disappear. (Robert Forster's character)
What was the benefit of going through that guy instead of just getting fake identity (for MUCH cheaper) and relocating yourself?
Not hating, just trying to remember what was so special about that expensive service.
Also - it does not make sense to provide a new job where you interact with lots of customers in open public setting, much higher chances of getting recognized.Comment

Cant say that I was too impressed. I haven't watched the second episode and probably wont. Seemed like they were just grabbing at straws.Your Paysite Partner

I was also less than impressed but I did watch the second episode because you have to remember that one of the things that made BB so great was the depth of character development and that takes time.
True, we know the main character but we are now seeing basically the "back story" that made him the man he was in BB.Comment

You do have a good point there. Maybe I'll watch the second episode and see where it goes from there. I do need some new shows to watch.I was also less than impressed but I did watch the second episode because you have to remember that one of the things that made BB so great was the depth of character development and that takes time.

I thought it was pretty good for a start it looks like some things are gonna happen in the future. Worst part is Saul looks so old and tired in this show its hard to believe him as a budding young lawyer trying to find his place in the biz.ICQ - 650889934Comment

Maybe he started late as a lawyer? Or at first he was with 0 ambition and only lkater in life decided to build something for himself?
Does not bother me a tiny bit, his age irrelevant for me

Because of fans and money
And what is the problem if tied with some characters from BB? It is before he met Walt and probably before Walt even started the biz so aside from familiar character nothing is tied, all those characters could carry on their unrelated to BB business

So, its a prequel, ala Star warsBecause of fans and money

That is the only reason I've committed to watching the first six episodes before drawing a solid conclusion on whether I'll like the show.
I found BB to be very drawn out the first few episodes. Most disagree with me. I was late to BB and only hung in beyond the first few episodes because everybody kept talking about how awesome it was. Without that reassurance I would have never hung in there until it got good.Comment

What I had read (I guess this will depend on how long the show goes on) is that will cover everything up to and including all the stuff that happened during BB. I imagine there was a lot more going on with him in that time that we don't know about. Supposedly many of the BB characters will make cameos.Because of fans and money

personally i have mixed emotions on the tie ins. on one hand, as the show was born of another, tie ins make sense.Because of fans and money

problem is, i feel like im watching vince gilligan copy himself. So far nothing is new. the cinematography, pace & characters are all BB.
if the entire series is going to copy the BB playbook, i will lose interest, because following an unhinged meth maker is a lot more interesting than following his lawyer. Id rather watch BB season 6 than a copy of BB on a weaker premise. & right now, the most interesting character is mijo, not saul.Comment

Not sure, I imagine, a prequel would be the one where they show everything from Walter's perspective... Now Walter is not in the picture at all, they just have some characters who were known to Walter. Which may hapen when it is set in the same town.
Plus the prequal is what happenes "before" while this one is more of a "parallel" timeline.Comment

Not sure If I agree with you on the parallel. Seems like its a flashback of sorts, him currently working at Cinabon and going back in his mind as to what got him there ?Not sure, I imagine, a prequel would be the one where they show everything from Walter's perspective... Now Walter is not in the picture at all, they just have some characters who were known to Walter. Which may hapen when it is set in the same town.

Of course it is/will be parallel time line, kane also said the same thing:
"What I had read (I guess this will depend on how long the show goes on) is that will cover everything up to and including all the stuff that happened during BB. I imagine there was a lot more going on with him in that time that we don't know about. Supposedly many of the BB characters will make cameos."
Prequel time line would be the one that starts way before the BB events and ends also before BB events.
Not to mention taht prequel would be following Walter..Comment

I was exactly the sameI found BB to be very drawn out the first few episodes. Most disagree with me. I was late to BB and only hung in beyond the first few episodes because everybody kept talking about how awesome it was. Without that reassurance I would have never hung in there until it got good.
Obviously it turned out to be the nuts, and I'm already in a different mindset with BCS than I was as a complete newcomer to BB, and am liking it so far. Always liked the character, and I really did lol at the part in episode 1 where he found the skateboarders, they asked how he found them, and his line "I know, eerie, right?" as the camera panned out on the skateboard park 
I'm escaping into it rather than looking for plot/character holes etc etc (I seriously can't understand the lengths some people go to when looking for things to gripe about, but there ya go) and so far so good

This, I think, is going to be the shows biggest hurdle. We know how his story ends (at least to a point) and we know some of what happens to him. So, in theory, much of this series is going to be back story for people that we already know and we already know what happens to. That is going to make keeping it fresh and interesting difficult.personally i have mixed emotions on the tie ins. on one hand, as the show was born of another, tie ins make sense.
