How Better Call Saul Season 3 Should Connect With Breaking Bad, According To Bob Odenkirk By Nick Venable Random Article Blend Better Call Saul has done an admirable job of giving Breaking Bad fans just enough

I have crazy ideas. I’d love to see some of Saul during the years of Breaking Bad, but off-screen, out of his office, not in his Saul mode. I’m curious what that person is.

While Saul Goodman’s job-free life was a mild curiosity during Breaking Bad’s run, the spinoff has definitely upped the ante when it came to the stakes involved with Jimmy McGill’s rise to infamy, both in and out of the office. This has, not incidentally, driven up interest in rewatching Breaking Bad episodes and seeing Saul in a completely different light.

We’ve gotten a glimpse of Jimmy’s post-Saul life as Gene the Cinnabon assistant manager, and that guy is apparently interested in reliving his glory days. So perhaps Gilligan and Gould could hit rewind on those flash-forwards to bring us into Saul’s life away from the problems of Better Call Saul to bring in Kuby and Huell.



But even if this perfect pitch doesn’t get used, Bob Odenkirk has another great idea for what Season 3 could do to entertain fans. Here’s what else he told

Mike and Jimmy sitting in a tree. Or in a parking attendant’s booth. More me and Mike together, squaring off. It’s just always fun. It makes me laugh. It’s a great burst of energy to be working with [Jonathan] Banks like that.

There is nothing wrong with that idea, since

And while we’re relying on co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould to deliver another fantastic narrative arc for Season 3 , star Bob Odenkirk actually has the sweetest concept possible for how to merge the two shows in the future.While Saul Goodman’s job-free life was a mild curiosity during’s run, the spinoff has definitely upped the ante when it came to the stakes involved with Jimmy McGill’s rise to infamy, both in and out of the office.
