Re: Better Call Saul...whatcha think?
Thank god, it's over, I was already over the series anyway, which is strange, because I was enjoying it so much better than Breaking Bad now that I remember it. Not a bad ending, though, I believe Jimmy McGill will regret his bold decision in the long run.

It is one of the best TV shows I have ever watched. I wonder why Hollywood doesn't make great movies anymore, one of the reasons might be that a large fraction of the talent moved to TV and exceptional shows like this are an indication of that.

WARNING: spoilers below
ending at the point Sedai mentions, but I'm glad it didn't because Jimmy's finger-gun gesture to Kim made me teary-eyed.
Hear hear, and like TONGO said, the end of this show does seem like the end of the era of the antihero crime drama that The Sopranos started way back when. Do we need another spinoff in this universe? Probably not, but if the Twitter joke The Pryce is Right series starring the guy in my avatar were actually made, I'd give it a chance. Regardless, you should check out The Bear. Guess my Jesse-Kim Alaska sitcom is the only thing i'd like to see ;) |
Re: Better Call Saul...whatcha think?
I think there's plenty of room for a new story within that universe, that touches on things we've seen, but not a "direct" spin-off from a major character, yeah. Maybe Gus Fring starting off with the cartel, but even that can only do so much. It'd have too be someone new, or someone minor.

Re: Better Call Saul...whatcha think?
That reminds me of the oft-discussed fact that they conceived BCS are more episodic and mostly a comedy, but of course that went out the window pretty quick.
They can start whatever kinda show they want, but in the end they obviously end up telling the same kinds of stories. And why not? It's what they excel at. |
Re: Better Call Saul...whatcha think?
Vince Gilligan said he’s not doing anymore shows in this universe. Word on the street is that his new show is more X-Files-ish.
