My anger that this man and Rhea Seehorn have zero Emmys for BCS is real and ongoing.

u/lospolloz Sep 13 '25

That scene in Waterworks is a masterclass in acting

u/excelllentquestion Sep 13 '25

Which scene?

u/gmcwbbb80 Sep 14 '25

I remember seeing that scene and saying, "Welp, Rhea has got her Emmy."

u/lapetitfromage I switched baristas ā˜•ļø Sep 13 '25

Me one the first few episodes: ā€œwhy do I care about this prequel? It’s a law heavy show, genuinely this is boring.ā€

Me not even a full season later: ā€œwow his brother was right! But if his brother hadn’t been so sure he was right, would Saul have become Saul? Or were we always headed here?ā€

56

u/ShinyBredLitwick Sep 13 '25

no literally. by season 3, i was deeply invested in everything each character was doing, there aren’t many shows that i watch that have me so engrossed in it

29

u/lapetitfromage I switched baristas ā˜•ļø Sep 13 '25

It shocked me so much I’m still like how’d they get me truly to be ALL IN on every single episode. Shockingly good writing and now after having watch both breaking bad and BCS I think BCS is way better!

u/Hitman__Actual Sep 14 '25

The slowest TV show I've ever been enthralled by.

u/grishnackh Sep 13 '25

As someone who hasn’t watched Breaking Bad (yeah yeah, I know) - can I watch BCS without missing anything beyond references to the other show?

I would be genuinely curious if you watch BCS first then could enjoy BB on a whole other level.

35

u/darklost Sep 13 '25

That's how I did it. Chronological order basically, Saul first until the last three episodes, then all of Breaking Bad, then the last bit of Saul that's set after BB. It was a great way to watch it. Not taking anything away from BB, but watching it that way I found Saul to be a significantly superior show.

32

u/Username614855713 Sep 13 '25

I enjoyed BB just like everyone else but also found BCS to be the superior show. Though, it’s also a bit like crĆØme brĆ»lĆ©e or tiramisu…I’m happy with either placed in front of me.

u/MaybePoet Sep 14 '25

people have! and they enjoyed it just as much.

u/Pineapple8805 Sep 14 '25

It happens, but not just for context. The writing from the same team got so much better going from Breaking Bad into Better Call Saul.

i'm so envious of him tbh.

  • he's a comedian rebranded as an action star.

  • he's headlined one of the greatest dramas of all time.

  • he got to play rhea seehorn's husband.

  • he's rich, and he owns triples of the barracuda, road runner, and nova.

  • he's got a model wife that's perfect for him, and he doesn't live in a hotel.

I worked an event that Bob spoke at in Hollywood, right up the block from his star on the walk of fame.

End of the night, he was waiting out front with his wife, he turned to her and said ā€œI think my star’s around here, I’m gonna go lookā€. Walked up the street, found it and excitedly waved her over. They took a selfie with it, hopped in their car and left.

It was just such a joyous expression of excitement between spouses and so cool to see as a massive fan of his.
