Better Call Saul: Ranking Every Jimmy McGill Scam

[@TomboTime]

Messing with that old lady is the worst thing Jimmy has ever done. I stand by my statement

[@romeolivingston84]

Isn’t it strange how many other things in this and breaking bad are cruel but when it comes to the old lady that is the most evil shit on the planet 😂

[@kristacalai9773]

I don’t think the writers were trying to trick Better Call Saul viewers into thinking its as intense and fast paced as BrBa, they wrote those scenes between Tuco and Saul to show that he can literally talk his way out of any situation. Truthfully I think characters like Gus are even scarier in BCS because we get a much deeper look into their backstories

[@ringkunmori]

Yeah that scene was critical and foreshadowed how close Jimmy and the Cartel were going to get. Although it's a pointless scene if you watched Breaking Bad and already knows Saul's future. As a guy who watched BCS first the scene was great

[@Kali-bs7oj]

Well also that small event was the catalyst for the whole connection between Saul and Nacho and Mike

[@f4standboolbous]

Now that the first part of Season 6 came out, we know that the 'Ham- Scam' is probably the most trickiest, best/worst and darkest Scam of them all. It really has to be, if you suffer only by watching the victim get scammed. Jimmy really outdid himself there and Kim was the motivational fuel they poured over good ol' Howie.

[@MackZmac]

great video. I would aruge that the Tuco episode isnt a "bait" episode, it may be an episode designed to draw veiwers in but I wouldnt say it was "bait" i mean theres plenty of action and tension in the show its not misrepresenting anything.

[@SlipMaker]

Good point Mack! "Bait" might be a bad way of putting it - after watching Season 5, I guess my feelings on the sequence in the first two episodes is that, since the show reached those dangerous stakes so quickly, the escalation in the episode Bagman feels a bit less impactful because you kind of go "oh, well... Jimmy's been here before" haha. Thanks for watching!

[@theturtle2811]

I think the most important part of that scene, is before they even discuss the two skateboarders. It was when they were questioning Jimmy. They didn't believe him until Jimmy told them what they wanted to hear. Foreshadowing the speech jimmy gives to the bar about Chuck

I don't think that the pilot episode lied to the audience. They just had to made it high stakes so that the show would get accepted. Without it, we'd have no better call saul.

[@SlipMaker]

I understand that take, and realize I came across a bit harsh in the video. My main issue is just that when we're getting to the really dangerous stuff like what happens in "Bagman", there's a part of me now thinking "eh, Jimmy's been through stuff like this before". It's a personal taste thing, but I wish the show held off until Season 5 so that the greater stakes would be all the more frightening when they occur. That being said, if amping up the stakes was what they needed to keep this show running in the early years, more power to them, 'cause this is my favorite show of all time and I can't imagine it getting cancelled prematurely.

[@ZaccoOfficial]

@@SlipMaker I get what you're saying. Personally, Better Call Saul is my favorite show too -- even better than Breaking Bad. I really hope that Season 6 reaches my expectations and maybe possibly goes further. I can't wait to see how Jimmy gets his office in that plaza or whatever. Exciting stuff.
