Apple TV+ Teases Mysterious New Show From 'Breaking Bad' Creator

Gilligan showrunning, Seehorn starring; the chances of this being great are very high.
The only thing is I can't wrap my head around is those two working together again, in Albuquerque, but Seehorn's not playing Kim Wexler, and it's not in the Gilliganverse. It will be an adjustment!
That said, knowing Gilligan's work, there's pretty much guaranteed to be easter eggs. There's gonna be a pizza on a roof somewhere.

Something to watch while waiting for S3 of Severance and Silo
Maybe so. Better Call Saul is definitely a slower burn, but man I enjoyed it a lot more than Breaking Bad too.
If anything, I'd say it certainly shows you don't have to race to the finish with a good show. The details are absolutely appreciated by anyone who's read a book only to be disappointed by a series (or more often, a movie) that didn't have the time to do it justice.
I also struggled with Breaking Bad when I tried to watch it many years ago…. could never get into it. However a couple of months ago, it popped up as “recommended” on my Netflix when I was looking for a new show to get into. Gave it a go and, to my surprise, this time I got into it! I’ve recently finished Season 3, and will probably start Season 4 this weekend
This new “Pluribus” show looks interesting and quirky, so I’ll see if i can finish off the last two seasons of Breaking Bad in time for Nov 7th!
It’s not for everyone, but no show is. The tone changes significantly after season one. I remember Vince being interviewed about it during the first season and him describing it as a dark comedy. Maybe that was true for season one but not later seasons.
I’m looking at the trailers for this show and honestly don’t get it 😂 maybe I’m not a fan of the writer 🤣.
I gave up my on first attempt of BB. Back in the days of renting dvds. When it showed up on Netflix, I gave it another shot and got drawn in. You can trust your instincts on this. No matter how much someone tells you that need to watch “whatever” it just might not be compelling to you.
My daughter and boyfriend were watching Botched (?), a show about people who had bad facial enhancements and the corrective surgery done to fix it. They were insistent that I watch it but the little I saw passing thru the room was enough for me. lol
My wife hadn’t seen breaking bad. So we watched Saul together and then when it reaches the part with Mr White, I had her watch the entire Breaking Bad, so she could then watch the end of Saul.
It has already begun. One of the teaser trailers includes the plane crash bear from BB on a headband.
I LOVED The Americans. The ending was incredibly good.
no show is for everybody and that's totally cool.
Lots of people seem to have really connected with that trailer (myself included) and there's no point in trying to be objective about this as if there is only one truth to experiencing art.
may you follow your gut to wherever it leads
I was stunned by the show. Such a slow burn, but holy character developmenet batman. They tied things together so well, I went on to watch breaking bad immediatley, and some of the things that Saul says that I had no idea why he said it then was unreal. I will try to manage my expectations on this one as I know it's a different world entirely.
