Six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White. We meet him when the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and, often, against Jimmy, is “fixer” Mike Ehrmantraut. The series tracks Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “criminal lawyer".

User Reviews

This show is much more than a spin-off of breaking bad. This is a prime example of what a continuation of a shows legacy and story should be

Writing, storytelling and acting are all top notch. Bob Odenkirk is amazing.

The non-Saul (/non-Kim) parts of the show (Mike, Ignacio) took up waaaay more screen time than I expected and I found them less interesting.

Slightly superior to Breaking Bad, IMO. One of the best TV shows of all time.

Not as good as Breaking Bad but pretty close. More backstory for Saul Goodman, Mike and Gus Fring and really interesting all around.

Not as quick and violent as breaking bad, but I love the show. And I liked learning of the characters before breaking bad

Great. Although the visual storytelling and writing were impressive, I feel that the pacing was too slow.

I loved Breaking Bad so I loved this, it’s slow but captivating and I couldn’t stop watching

The storytellers really deserve your trust as every scene across every season is crafted to make a point but never loses the fun.

No question that this is easily one of the top 5 shows of all time. It's at least as good as BB if not better. Funny, smart & emotive. 10/10
