Better Call Saul: AMC’s upcoming spinoff

For all the Breaking Bad fans, AMC has released a tease for the upcoming spin-off Better Call Saul.

Set in 2002, it focuses on the life of small-time lawyer (portrayed by Bob Odenkirk) six years before his appearance on Breaking Bad, though events during and after the original series will also be explored.

Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan hinted at a possible spin-off series focusing on Goodman. In a July 2012 interview, Gilligan said he liked “the idea of a lawyer show in which the main lawyer will do anything it takes to stay out of a court of law.”

The crime drama television series was set to come out earlier this year, but has been delayed until Sunday, Feb. 8, at 10 p.m. for a two-night premier. AMC has also announced that the series has been renewed for a second season.

Let’s all hope it lives up to the greatness that Breaking Bad has brought to television.
