Sorry for the editing mistake at 23:00 that’s my fault forgot I didn’t take it out before I rendered 🤦‍♂️ EDIT: Another mistake (sorry lol), I misspoke when talking about Mike having a clean out, it's been a hot minute since I've seen breaking bad so my knowledge was a little rusty, but I still believe my point still stands, again, sorry lol

Absolutely. The cliche thing to do would be to show the crash in slow-motion or something, or even worse, don't show it at all and just have the dumb "main character gets a phone call with terrible news" thing. But the way the show did it was brilliant, something I've never seen before. Seriously, bravo to the director and/or whomever came up with that one.

That and the in Bad Choice Road when Jimmy has a ptsd attack. Kim splatters orange juice on her shirt and Jimmy winces so hard he knocks his bowl on the ground, and the way it's edited makes it so visceral you can feel it. It doesn't even do what you would expect and intercut the orange juice spattering with the blood spattering in Jimmy's shirt from the shootout in Bagman, it knows the viewer is smart enough to connect the dots and just shows Jimmy's reaction in a way that you can feel the intensity of the ptsd

You said Saul Goodman is 2 dimensional for the entirety of Breaking Bad, and normally I’d agree, but after finishing season 6 of BCS I decided to rewatch all his scenes in BB and I think he has just 1 moment of depth that sticks with me. Jesse has Saul deliver money to Andrea and Brock, while he’s there he stops and chats with Brock and they all seem genuinely happy and friendly with each other. Saul tells the kid a little anecdote, Brock smiles at him, Andrea thanks him, then he leaves. He meets Jesse in the car and says he doesn’t mind doing the delivery, which shows his behavior wasn’t just an act. Later, Walt has Saul (using Huell) pick the ricin cigarette off Jesse. When Saul learns why (that he used the cigarette to poison Brock, that very same sweet little kid he saw before) he’s so disgusted he tells Walt that he is *done working with him.* Of course, Walt intimidates him back into submission, but it’s definitely worth noting that _Saul Goodman,_ a man whose first instinct was to have his own client (Badger) killed if it was more convenient for him, who is totally fine working with drug dealers, who lies as easily as he breathes, who helps cover up Walt and Jesse’s crimes even when it’s _murder-_ THAT Saul Goodman- thought Walt crossed a line. Also, his behavior in his last conversation with Walt shows there is more to him than we would have thought. I believe I saw in an interview or something that they actually planned BCS before BB ended, so that’s probably why he felt less 2 dimensional toward the end.

Around the 30-minute mark you said that Saul was willing to sell out Kim for chocolate mint ice cream, but that's not true. He was just going to give out information regarding Howard Hamlin for the ice cream. It's just when he heard that Kim already told the authorities about it did he start to reconsider. I don't think him betraying kim was ever a thought in his mind no matter how despicable he became.

I watched Better Call Saul, except the last few episodes, before Breaking Bad so there were actually a lot of surprises. I thought Hector was going to die, I thought Nacho was in Breaking Bad, I didn't know who Gus was at first. It was a really interesting experience but then it made me feel like Saul wasn't a properly used character in Breaking Bad itself. Luckily, I left the final 3 episodes until after Breaking Bad so the story tied up in the end.

Around 18:00 you said Mike was given a clean out after Gus died, however, he kept going on due to the money he worked for being confiscated. He wanted to leave his granddaughter some money, but the DEA froze all the accounts and confiscated everything. Either way, it was all for nothing since his lawyer was caught distributing the new money he made with Walt and Jesse. Other than that, amazing video! Really entertaining and well put.

Saul didn’t want to be held accountable for his actions, during the plea negotiation he was smug until he heard about Kim. From then on Jimmy was in control. He didn’t go from 7 years to 83 (I think) to atone. He did it for Kim, he did it so Kim would respect him again, he did it to show her that he is a good person. And to save her from the civil suit. Even when Chuck got Jimmys confession on tape he said he did it for Kim.

17:55 Mike did have an obligation and reason to keep working after Gus died. At first he didn't want to even though his millions got taken away by the DEA. Then the hazard pay from Gus couldn't go through for his guys and he had to take matters into him own hands. So I'm sorry how you could forget this vital plotline. Mike didn't want to continue working with Walt and Jessie but essentially he had no choice if he wanted to stay with his family. There were 2 options skip town and leave his family or work with Walt make the money for the hazard pay so he doesn't get revealed and make money back for his family.

Thank you for finally making the only video on KZbin that does justice to the greatest show to play on television, 2 years after Breaking Bad premiered, and to this day. I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico and I worked at the movie theater as the door guy. That mall every cold open was shot, it had the Cinnabon right down the way from the Movie Theater I’d worked at, right at the day of turning sixteen and fresh into high school, and every lunch I had, when the show had come down to shoot all the cold opens of every season up until I left at season 4, I’d see Bob. He’d be in his Cinnabon outfit with Vince G. and Peter Gould going over their lines. Regardless of me living there, I do believe that not only Breaking Bad floored me in what my hometown could be and what I’ve always seen it to be as a filmmaker with my own camera in the mesa well before they’d came, they taught me how to truly tell stories in my backyard. Every week, in my movie theater work uniform, watching my favorite show of all time be made where my dad took me to try a cinnamon roll for the first time. The best program to ever air on television alongside Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, and The Wire.

I think Nacho's dad knew something bad was up during their last conversation. There's just no way a father wouldn't pick up on the sings his son gives out with the voice on the brink of tears and what he says. Dad's facial expressions are reserved, but still give out the vibe that he understands the situation, yet he still believes that police is the only way Nacho could survive. Dad took the news from Mike too well for me to believe he was "clueless".

Better Call Saul is a masterpiece, like Breaking Bad before it. When I rewatch Breaking Bad, I’m not going to look at it the same. I got to really like Jimmy McGill to the point where I didn’t want Saul Goodman to ever exist, which is sort of useless to think, but that’s how well done he was in this show. Yes, Jimmy has his flaws and had done some bad things, but for the most part he is a good guy deep down. He does bad things, many times with the best intentions, but does what he can to try and rectify those bad things even if sometimes he’s too late to do so or it’s not as easy as he thinks it is. I loved how the series ended as it gave great closure to this world that has existed to us since 2008. I even love this show more than Breaking Bad, mainly due to the characters in the the slow burn that pays off in the end. I could go on and on, but this is a true masterpiece. Great video man!

The genius writing to showing Jimmy living a life under Gene and being arrested, makes it look like everything he did in prior seasons is why he's been arrested and why he went under a different name. Without looking at Breaking Bad, that's the story the show tells us. We obviously know that there's more context, and it's not the reason, but there's enough guilt and wrong done by Jimmy that it's enough to be. BCS can exist on it's own, or as a prequel to BB. You could even argue that Breaking Bad offers itself as a prequel to BCS, because we're presented with a gap in Saul's story in s6. A gap that can be filled by watching BB.

In Kim's defense though, she did scolde Jimmy everytime when Saul did a major dubious/scammy move until at some point she gave in and also started to become more and more like Saul. On one hand I respect and love Kim's character for standing strong together with Jimmy even in rough times, like literally protecting him (for example the scene with Lalo at their apartment) on the other hand it is so tragic that Jimmy ended up enabling that part of Kim and therefore Kim ended up at some point further enabling Jimmy until it all spilled over and got out of hand so to say.

i mostly agree with everything you've said about Kim, except it wasn't just taking it further and further because of Jimmy. The show's made it clear that it doesn't mind showing sex scenes, and after every successful scheme that Jimmy and Kim complete, it always ends in sex - in fact the very first time they scammed together was the first time we see them kiss and hook up. This show creates an extreme sense of irony (for lack of a better word) because both Chuck and Howard were right about Kim and Jimmy, down to the smallest detail, yet they are the ones who lose everything. It wasn't just Jimmy who was edging Kim, it was also Kim who was pushing Jimmy to do more things. You can see in the s5 finale that Jimmy clearly didn't want to do the Howard scheme, yet Kim wants to and Jimmy, being Jimmy, is too scared to say no out of fear that Kim might think less of him, so he takes the initiative. Jimmy by nature is always going to be a schemer, but it was Chuck who kept him within the legal, if not moral, boundaries of society, and when Chuck died it was Kim. But seeing Kim fall further and further into immorality meant Jimmy could do what he wanted without having to fear of any real consequences - until there were real consequences in the form of Howard.

You got some things wrong about Kim. First the timeline, she went from HHM to private practice (for Mesa verde) with Jimmy then Schweikhart and Cokely then back to private practice (for public defender cases) then she left Jimmy and the law. 2nd she wasn’t a near partner, she was a full fledged partner at Shwikehart and Cokely before she left (i know I’m spelling it wrong)

No one in the show ever changed for the better. Chuck TRIED, Nacho TRIED, Mike TRIED, Kim TRIED, and Jimmy TRIED. By the finale everyone was dead except for Kim and Jimmy. Both could’ve gone by with their lives and gotten away scot free. The guilty Kims confession seemed like it would destroy her, and Jimmy’s (yet again) return to crime was going to destroy him. But yet again, he had the choice to get away with it and you think he would’ve. In the last two scenes, not only had Kim fully changed back into the good person she used to be since episode 1, but for the first time in the entire show, after all of the failed attempts, Jimmy finally changed. If Chuck was alive, he would’ve finally been proud of Jimmy.
