Is Better Call Saul worth watching?

Nick McIntyre · February 23, 2016, 10:10:18 AM

I've watched the first two episodes, and they felt like an absolute chore to get through. Just wondering if there's truly a big payoff at the end before I was my time.

The first few episodes of any given TV show always suck. You're supposed to get hooked in later.

I personally couldn't get that into it so I wouldn't be able tell you.

rC · February 23, 2016, 10:20:21 AM

I thought it was almost as good as beaking bad, so yes

Big Boss · February 23, 2016, 10:30:01 AM

it's ok

big dog · February 23, 2016, 10:48:24 AM

It's on par with BB.

Mad Max · February 23, 2016, 10:59:45 AM

You have to remember it's Vince Gilligan, and it's related to Breaking Bad. BB was a very slow burn in the beginning too - a lot of people forget that.

But yes, it's great.

BaconShelf · February 23, 2016, 11:02:03 AM

It's pretty good. I preferred BB though.

Great show, sucks I can't watch it since my cable provider doesn't give amc

don't watch tv shows
that shit just breaks your heart when it ends

Mr. Psychologist · February 23, 2016, 01:24:27 PM

I preferred it to breaking bad, because there was less artsy filler padding out the whole show.

big dog · February 23, 2016, 01:31:14 PM

both shows are like

10/10

can't really find any major flaws in either of them other than the beginning being slow, which isnt much of a flaw

How fucking dare you, to think that anything about BB is filler.
It's one of the best written shows of all time, everything is intentional and integral to the overarching story.
Maybe it's just hard to see that coming from a subamerican country.
Get the fuck off my board.

Breaking Bad is shit. Literally can not watch it. Yellow tinted lens filters give me cancer.

Ghost Guy · February 23, 2016, 02:42:33 PM

BB is really intense and for some reason depresses me. I can only take it in bite-sized pieces.

But yes, it's great.

The first episode of BB was slow, but it didn't feel slow. It had plenty strong character moments and ended with a nice bang. First episode of BCS felt awkward and slow to me, and bringing in BB characters (I mean people like Tuco, not Mike. Mike at least made sense) just for "LULZ IT CONNECTS TO BREAKING BAD" just feels weird to me.

All those scenes where we see Walt eating breakfast with his son is pointless. Hell his son is them most pointless character in the show since all he does is eat food.
