Better Call Saul (2015-2022)

 






Jimmy McGill is a former con artist on a journey to become a lawyer.  After being passed over for a job at his brother Chuck's firm, Jimmy takes on the persona of Saul Goodman, working as a public defender and later delving into elder law.  Throughout this time, Jimmy's relationship with colleague Kim Wexler turns romantic and his involvement with criminals increases, sending him back to his con artist days.  Things come to a head when Jimmy needs to leave Albuquerque and assumes the identity of Gene Takavic, a manager at an Ohama Cinnabon.

A prequel to the ever popular Breaking Bad (2008-2013) was tossed around after its first season, though it would not come to fruition until two years after it went off the air.  The series would be based on events leading up to Breaking Bad, with guest appearances by some of the characters.  Better Call Saul is one of the few spinoffs that has achieved success, such as The Facts of Life (1979-1988) and Melrose Place (19921-1999).  For some odd reason, it was not an Emmy darling that its predecessor was.
