Six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White. We meet him when 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. The series tracks Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “criminal lawyer".

'Better Call Saul' is acclaimed for its intricate storytelling, deep character arcs, and exceptional acting. The series is lauded for enriching the 'Breaking Bad' universe while maintaining its own identity. Themes of morality, ambition, and redemption are central. Cinematography, direction, and music enhance the immersive quality. Its deliberate pacing allows for profound character and world development. The relationships, especially between Jimmy McGill and Kim Wexler, are highly appreciated. The show's meticulous attention to detail and seamless continuity with 'Breaking Bad' are significant points of praise.
