    “My doctor was a conservative. He got crankier and crankier the older he got. When I was 50, I went in, he was a heart doctor, Cedar-Sinai, and he had signs up all around his office at this point [saying] ‘We do not accept Obamacare,’ and I f---ing hated this side of him that I only learned over time," Odenkirk explained. “So, I’d been with him for 20 years, and he said, ‘You need to start taking statins right now,’” Odenkirk continued, referring to the group of medicines that are known to lower the level of cholesterol in the blood....

    How many more times can it be said that “Better Call Saul” is one of the best shows on television? As many more times as they’re willing to make new episodes. It’s been 10 years since “Breaking Bad” premiered (an anniversary still being celebrated), but four since the Vince Gilligan- and Peter Gould-created prequel premiered. And in that time, the (mostly) same creative team that changed television with the original series has only continued to up their game year after year. Watching the ways in which the “Better Call Saul” team challenges themselves to push beyond the expected, beyond the...

    We know the following to be true: Jimmy McGill is an ideas man.Sometimes, though, his ideas don’t materialize as flawlessly as he/we had hoped, like that time he paid a pair of scummy skater punks to track down a new client, that time he used a cardboard tube to disguise his voice and that time this week when his failed idea forced him into being the first-ever action star with a comb-over.It was a bold plan that landed Jimmy on the front page of his local paper with the headline: “Local lawyer, local hero.”So let’s dissect what exactly happened, shall...

    Tonight’s episode of Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul finds our hero, Jimmy McGill (before he becomes Saul Goodman, like the reverse of the biblical Saul to Paul transformation) in something of a pickle. The scene opens to convict Jimmy begging help from his older brother, Chuck. We get another glimpse into his criminal past, and insight into why he hasn’t gone crooked again, even with Nacho offering a ten percent finders fee on 1.5 million dollars if he just helps rip off the Kettleman family.Still, it’s a bit surprising when Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) calls up his friend Kim (Rhea Seehorn) a lawyer at...

    AMC’s “Better Call Saul” set a new record for a cable series premiere audience Sunday night, drawing 6.9 million viewers. That’s down from the 10.3 million who watched the finale of its parent series, “Breaking Bad,” but it’s well above the audience “Breaking Bad” had averaged for every episode before the finale. As late as the end of its fourth season, “Breaking Bad” averaged fewer than two million viewers. “Saul” stars Bob Odenkirk as Saul Goodman, the sleazy lawyer who facilitated Bryan Cranston’s Walter White in “Bad.”

    "Better Call Saul" is finally here. I already published my initial review and interviews with creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould, and with Bob Odenkirk and Jonathan Banks, and now I have thoughts on the first episode coming up just as soon as I translate this review into Finnish... "Have patience. There are no shortcuts." -Chuck Those words by the older brother of Jimmy "The Man Who Will Be Saul" McGill are so important to Vince Gilligan, Peter Gould and all the other "Breaking Bad" alums who have continued onto the new show that I hope they all wear bracelets...

    To talk about Breaking Bad's greatness, you have to talk about Walter White. You have to talk about showrunner Vince Gilligan’s now-famous vow to turn “Mr. Chips into Scarface”; you have to talk about tightie-whities giving way to rubber lab coats, about high-school chemistry lessons leading to a machine gun laying waste to a Nazi meth gang. Bryan Cranston's character's five-season transformation from zero to antihero had no precedent on TV, and made for tense, morally challenging viewing. Take out Walter and his journey, though, and do you still have a masterpiece? Better Call Saul, the new spinoff whose premiere...
  • Better Call Saul: Will There Be a Fast & Furious Storyline?

    I'm watching the "Breaking Bad" marathon now and half the enjoyment is seeing the "Better Call Saul" commercials for that show that starts in February. Anyway, since the locale is the Southwest, I am wondering if there will be a Fast & Furious storyline. Basically ATF agents buying guns from local dealers and making sure they are purchased by the Mexican cartel. It's almost natural that there would be a Saul Goodman connection there. Perhaps he represents a gun dealer who was framed by the feds but the dealer secretly taped conversations with the ATF agent showing the latter encouraged...

    Trucking and Auto Accidents? Better Call John. Drowning Accidents? Better Call John. Defective or Unsafe Products? Better Call John. Why? Because we at Edwards Kirby have a record of fighting for fairness and accountability. Washington Examiner correspondent Byron York has written about John Edwards, the 2004 Democrat vice presidential nominee who came within just a few electoral votes away from being a heartbeat away from the presidency, returning to the love of his life, ambulance chasing. What is amusing is how tackily similar the Edwards' personal injury law firm, Edwards Kirby, is to the fictional Saul Goodman of the popular...
