I recently read somewhere that there is a possibility of another series. Could be after BB timeline, or maybe BCS doesn't take us all the way to BB.

I don't see why they couldn't continue BCS up until he first meets Walt. If I had to guess where another potential storyline might be worth doing, it could be centered around Jesse. You could either follow him prior to BB, as we already know he has a past, or come up with a new story about what he's done since BB ended.

Finally got around to starting it and it was fairly slow the first few epis but just finished the second season... They do a good job of leaving me in an oh snap feel. I dig it quite a bit and the development of Mike is awesome. I can understand that its not for everybody (whereas if anyone did not enjoy BB we cant be friends) but seeing the origins of slippin jimmy before the money laundering and truly bad lawyering he had humble beginnings.

Jesse would be cool and is probably the only other character that makes sense. They could keep some Gus and cartel storyline, and even show Jesse as one of Walt's students. Maybe they could have Walt as a side-story (like Mike in BCS) as a teacher, but I'm not sure if there's anything interesting there - same with Hank.

Anyone else realize the actors are aging?
IMO, the time has passed for any more prequels.

A related series occurring after BB, now that'd be fine.
Yeah. The guy playing Mike was already pretty old. Always knew it would be tough to pull of a prequel like this. Luckily, they didn’t go too far back and much of Breaking Bad is supposed to be a couple years after the current time in BCS.

im not sure how a Jesse story would go. he is young in BB, how a story of him would go? elementary jr high, High school delinquent, Jr college delinquent?.

What? Kid graduates high school barely able to multiply two-digit numbers, does lots of drugs and slings meth for a living. Fascinating modern-day everyman story.

I agree, it would be boring and stupid. I don't really care about a street level dealer and his back story. There won't be much to it.

I can imagine a pretty cool story involving Jessie’s aunt leaving him the house after dying of cancer and his family fighting him for it. Enter: Jessie’s lawyer.

This was all alluded to in Breaking Bad.

Edit: OK, it would need some tweaking since this is when Saul first meets Jessie’s parents...

Perhaps Kim could take the case?

Edit 2: Sideplot of Jessie’s House struggle might be something involving Emilio getting off twice despite being caught dead to rights...

Can't believe season is already almost over. 1 episode left...

Jimmy now has more of a reason to start being Saul.

Oh, they aren’t going to put Jimmy through another year of this.

That teaser for the next episode seems far-fetched though. It simply must be misdirection.

I'm kinda hoping that this was going to be the end of Jimmy the lawyer and the start of Saul the lawyer

Latest is he suffered a heart attack, now in stable condition. Hopefully he recovers well.

The entire Breaking Bad universe ends this year with the final season of BCS starting on April 18.

What a wild ride that started all the way back in 2008.

Bob Odenkirk collapsed on set and hospitalized. Still there as of this morning.

Shit, that geezer is 59. Hey buddy, I hope you make a full recovery and come out even healthier than you were, but dude. Two words, stress test. Treadmill optional, they can give you some thallium plus some nice drugs for that.

[it puts the rosary around its neck and steps to pulpit - first double checks it's wearing both pants and underwear]

Rapamycin kills the senescent cells that are a big part of the problem. But senescence depends on how long your telomeres are which then determines when you reach the Hayflick limit and cells stop dividing.

Those guys are labeled "senescent" and they make your curmudgeonly uncle look like a pussy cat in body of Krysten Ritter.

We need to hunt those mofos down and kill them with prejudice. There are some plant extracts that purport to be rapalogs (rapamycin analogs) but, since nutritional supps aren't actually regulated (god forgive me but I actually wrote Congress telling them not to), well. Roll the dice I suppose.

I stopped watching "Saul" after season 2 but I really need to go back and finish it up.... at this point I'll wait till its over though so I can binge it.

And Breaking Bad is/was one of my all-time favorite series, streaming or otherwise.

It's actually a better series in my opinion. They put a lot of work into Saul's character development, actually the entire cast is great. How this show hasn't received more awards is beyond me.

Just finished watching season 5 on Netflix. The whole Breaking Bad/El Camino/Better Call Saul is literally genius, and some of the best series produced... ever.

My wife and I have a few more episodes left to go in season 5.

The character insight/development just knocks it out of the park in this series.

JFC last night's episode felt like BCS's Ozymandias, can't believe there are still six more episodes left.
