| Topic | So this Breaking Bad show, it's pretty good. |

That said, now that I am in Season 4, one of the things I'm not as keen about this show compared to Breaking Bad is that it doesn't seem to have as clear a sense of purpose. It's just kinda endlessly twirling its thumbs while things are slowly unfolding. Breaking Bad, meanwhile, had a sense of steady progression and something was always at stake. Events were getting grander in scope until they could no longer do so. Whereas here in Better Call Saul, Everyone is all over the place at any given time. Saul is working here, now he's working there, now Chuck is dead. Gus and Mike help keep the overall narrative flowing in the right direction, but Saul's just kind of...there. Yeah I would agree with this. I think it's hard to do that sort of escalation in a prequel but I'll also say that I think season 5 fixes some of those problems as well. --- skull ...
