Don't compare with Breaking Bad
29 January 2019 | by mrayyeSee all my reviews

This prequel set around the backstory of Jimmy "Saul" McGill is a gripping, emotional, serious spin off to AMC's hit show. When starting this out, keep an open mind, don't compare with breaking bad as you may be disappointed, breaking bad is one of the greatest series ever made. Keep an open mind and you'll be hooked quicker than the original, due to the fact that we know the characters, the area, the personalities. This isn't just a spinoff, this could be seen as a stand alone show and would not disappoint.
