I used to hang around with Bobs' younger brother Phil, and his sister Laurie back when I was a teenager....He was a writer for SNL at the time, and I used to see him in shows in Chicago...He used to take us to Cubs games, and was a really great guy...Good memories of my times with the Odenkirks....He has a brother Steve, and sisters Maria, and Susan as well....That was 30 yrs ago...Glad he found so much success....He is from a good family...Naperville North graduate...

[@UncontainablePickle-_420]

I haven't watched too many of these videos, however I greatly appreciate that the host of this show isn't like any other host that you'll normally see for interviews. He's quiet and allows the people he invites to actually tell their story. No ridiculous jokes, no cheap form of an advertisement. He just let's them come and speak their mind. And when he does open his mouth, it's friendly or intellectual. Unfortunately we live in a generation where great hosts, channels, and people like this are slow to gain fame, because the people of our geeration love the ridiculous and annoying interviews that are so commonly seen. But these are the true treasure to watch. Don't change a single thing. These videos are fantastic.

[@AMDphenomX3rocks]

if you like these type of interviews... the old school format less joke and more knowledge...there is a classic called :inside actor's studio" by the legendary James lipton

[@SL33VE]

+UncontainablePickle I agree. His interview style reminds me of Terry Gross from NPR's "Fresh Air" who is also awesome.

[@albinpepe9057]

also WTF with Marc Maron is pretty good, once you skip past his ramblings and plugs in the beginning. He gets people to really open up.

[@KutWrite]

Plus, he's really there with Bob. Many TV "interviews" are staged in front of a green screen. The "interviewer" gets a list of questions that the actor has already answered & they pretend they're asking those in real time.

[@ncar-ul6wd]

This seems to be an American thing. I've always hated late-night talk show hosts from the USA. Their egos are too big to interview others and they want to be the star of their show. Watch Graham Norton work - he's great. He plays the role of a host perfectly, interjecting sparingly to keep the show flowing but also keep the energy and spirit high.

[@Yus-b9e]

Saul became one of my favorite characters ever due to this man's great performance.

[@Wolfsheim23]

Better Call Saul is the best Prequel by far I've ever seen. It's amazing how well they created the histories of all these great characters and how perfectly they are evolving into their Breaking Bad selves. I wish more prequels were this well done. I hope they take this much care with the Game of Thrones prequel series.

[@Aaron-fe6le]

The fact that they are trying to do 5 just tells me they are in it for the money and not the content. There's no way they could take their time with that.

[@da1uheardabt]

@@Aaron-fe6le maybe if you realized how far back in the timeline better call Saul's goes, you wouldn't be saying that. They still make bank off of breaking bad alone, money is far from the motive lmao.

[@AJandWrmyinitials]

The crazy, mind blowing thing is that it’s not actually a prequel to Breaking Bad, it’s a prequel to Mr. Show

[@Vichedges]

@@da1uheardabt He's not even talking about Better Call Saul, he's talking about the GOT prequels. Did you just skim his comment and then rush off to reply? Try reading what people actually say next time if you're going to reply. Definitely "LMAO" though.

[@joshliam1967]

It was clear watching Breaking Bad how committed Bryan Cranston was to his craft, I think the advice he gave to Odenkirk is great for anyone who wants to do anything.

[@MathasarSalazar2]

underrated actor.

[@Turrican60]

Undderated? By who? You've got the wrong actor.

[@Vichedges]

By who? The dude won all kinds of acclaim for Breaking Bad and it's only gone up since he STARRING in his own show. The guy worked with Spielberg, Streep and Hanks recently. He's hardly "underrated".

[@JiveDadson]

Really? What's his rating?

[@fareseno]

How his underated?? Lmao 🤣🤣,

[@Unti1tmrw]

@@Turrican60 he’s underrated in terms of awards is what he meant this man has deserved an Emmy since 2015 and he’s lost every year by actors I haven’t even heard of and I knew Bob as an actor before I knew what BrBa and BCS were.

[@ElegeantFencer]

Bob is so great.

[@MrWarhead16]

His character, his acting. Jimmy is a sad aspiring lawyer whos brother hates him very much and its the depressing vibe we can emphatize with the lead character just like what Walter is. And Saul is like that smart mouth who is really funny.

[@EarlyMist]

It's interesting how Bob got the advice to just show up and work, learn the lines, eat whatever is available/made by the crew etc because these elements show up in the show. If I could fault Jimmy for many things it certainly isnt the ability to work his ass off for better or worse. He is always working things...figuring things out, scheming, lawyering the shit out of cases. I always admired that about the character...just pushes on and keeps going.

I like that he asked Bryan that question. It shows a level of humbleness but also a desire to understand what it took for Bryan to bring that level of skill to the screen, and to know whether that was something he could commit to.

[@roddydykes7053]

Sam Jones is one of the best interviewers I've ever heard. He really brings a lot out of people. Great interview.

[@ImWalnuts]

+jones Lol, he annoys me a little bit more every time i hear him

[@bullmilk]

Sam does a great job of teeing up questions and not making the interview about himself. That's a huge departure from late night shows.

[@ImWalnuts]

bullmilk i agree with this though.

[@leahcarnevale7340]

+Wal Nuts dude. he's barely present in his interviews. he allows people to speak for themselves. This seems to be almost a lost art with interviewers. He's incredible.

[@fosibodu]

To us all, it ain't magic, just hard work. Great story/advice.

It’s a busy life as an actor but hey if you’re gonna work for something special you gotta give it your all.

But as an audience member and having acting experience I truly appreciate the grind.

[@DPMusicStudio]

Completely agree.

[@elitenomad2580]

Other than throwing light on Bob (who is a FANTASTIC actor by the way), this interview really brings out Bryan Cranston's dedication for his job when Bob recites his conversation with him. Really tells one about how successful series like these involve immense hardwork down from the lighting guy to the lead actor himself/herself.

[@kiayanow3345]

I hope people are sharing this channel. I cant believe I just now came across this. These conversations are so inspiring to people who may want to be actors. This gives a very real look into how things really are and that these people are just trying to make it like the rest of us.

[@gehmirausdersonne4791]

Such a humble person and good actor.

[@Mr00000111]

Saul Goodman is hilarious; almost every line he had was funny. I credit that to Mr. Odenkirk's great performance.

[@guyfierri1234]

His talent and hard work, along with the rest of the crew, shows on BCS. The show was nothing short of excellently well put together.

[@brrjohnson8131]

"..I'm gonna lead this....ya know, army..." I loved that seemless correction. love this talented man.

[@hc5240]

[@Fischerfootball]

[@NxDoyle]

Bob is bringing the same level of dedication that Bryan did. It shows in the performance. I really want him to get the shiny trophies.

[@aruchgupta]

Mr Odenkirk, there was no other character I could have liked more than yours. A dialogue of yours is, "Man is a wordsmith" with reference to Jesse, but the dialogues you had were pure art, so engaging and no one could have done those better. And your voice is cherry on top.

[@JordanAthemusiclover]

Great and detailed interview! So looking forward to Season 3!

[@ktxed]

BCS needs more episodes per season

[@holychicken4sure]

+ktxed season 2 was meant to have 12 episodes, but they came up with 10. Btw the 3rd season finale and the first two episodes are already written.

[@JordanAthemusiclover]

While I agree with that view, it may have been the decision of the writers to only do 10 per season so far. From their experiences working on Breaking Bad, they may believe that it's better to shorten the seasons than to have to stretch certain ideas out into 20 or so episodes per season

[@matteowilliams9234]

Jordan I completely agree

[@abramsullivan7764]

Season six will have 13 episodes and it will be the final season of Better Call Saul.

[@DarrenSemotiuk]

10 was MORE than enough for Season 5. Wow. But the final Season 6 could have 26 and I will still be wanting more

[@downhillphilm.6682]

I refuse to believe that this channel didn't have millions of subs. But then again I've always felt alone in my circles as I am on IMDb the second I watch a movie or show trying to figure out "how I know that person" and I'm always acting like every commercial is a live game show and whoever guessed the voice of the spokesperson is. So that kinda explains why more people care about the performances of actors than learning their method to craft
