I'm doing my best to manage my expectations in regards to the Breaking Bad spinoff Better Call Saul—but so far I've been woefully unsuccessful. And this plot description from AMC isn't helping!
The series is set six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White. When we meet him, 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, a beloved character introduced in ‘Breaking Bad.’ The series will track Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “Criminal lawyer.” The series’ tone is dramatic, woven with dark humor.
Here's the new trailer, and the show starts on February 8 & 9th. Start counting down the seconds!
