When Breaking Bad first aired on AMC in 2008, it immediately became a cultural phenomenon. While Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) and Walter White (Bryan Cranston) were the star characters, many fans agree Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) made a lasting impression. The wise-cracking dirty lawyer became so popular he even got his own show, Better Call Saul.
Bob OdenkirkIn a TV series replete with antiheroes, Breaking Bad lawyer Saul Goodman, brilliantly played by Bob Odenkirk, is a standout. In fact, the AMC network recently announced that after the final season of Breaking Bad, Saul will be the star of a new spinoff entitled Better Call Saul, a prequel to the original.
Pamela OrbicPamela Orbic is a family lawyer based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She represented Skyler White as her divorce attorney amidst her concerns regarding her husband, Walter White, and his frequent disappearances.
After the final season of Breaking Bad hit the airwaves and it was lauded as the perfect end to the greatest series in the history of television, AMC announced a prequel about the origin story of Walter White's lawyer, Saul Goodman.
The story of how an Irish lawyer named Jimmy McGill became the sleazy, pseudonymous strip-mall ambulance-chaser who checked Walter White and Jesse Pinkman's attorney-client privilege throughout Breaking Bad will be told in the prequel series Better Call Saul, starring Bob Odenkirk, which debuts with a two-part premiere ...

If you are one of these viewers then we are almost certain you are familiar with the character, Saul Goodman. He is a practicing attorney who has been called everything in the books, from a criminal lawyer who thinks like a criminal, to a con artist known as Slippin' Jimmy.
Julie Dretzin is an actress. She portrays Pamela Orbic in Breaking Bad.
Slippin' Jimmy and Saul wear their wigs like armour. He'd be lost without it. However, the true brilliance of Saul Goodman's paralegal periwig is the way that the costume designers have reverse engineered it.
However, in many of the comics, and also in the latest Netflix series, audience members see Murdock practicing criminal defense and civil rights litigation to a certain degree.
“Cheer” Is Back For Season 2 Better Call Saul co-creator Peter Gould already confirmed America's favorite meth lab coworkers, Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul), would be reprising their Breaking Bad roles this season.

Trivia. The name of the episode is derived from the license plate of Howard's car, a 1998 Jaguar XJ8. Furthermore, the term “Namaste” is a respectable greeting used in the Hindu culture. In this episode, Howard went out of his way to greet Jimmy in a respectful manner.
When Walter and Skyler are looking for a legitimate business venture to launder their money, Saul's immediate suggestion is a laser tag place. His reasoning: "scientists love lasers." It's an eye-rolling moment where the lawyer shows even his genius has its limits.
The first time Saul meets Skyler after she enters the picture of Walt's ventures, he attempts to charm her with the line, "Walt’s taste in women is like his taste in lawyers, the best, with just the right amount of dirty." She is not impressed by his supposed silver tongue. Throughout the show, Saul proves he is not a lady's man, and, in fact, women are usually disgusted by him. With Skyler as part of the scheme now, he should know better than to insult Walter's wife.
Many of its characters have become TV icons, including Walter White, Jesse Pinkman, Hank, Gus, and Mike. But others are...not so iconic.
Breaking Bad had many antagonists throughout its run, but none were as repulsive as Todd. The fans found Todd a compelling character in no small part thanks to Jesse Plemons ' brilliant performance.
The show is ultimately about a protagonist transforming into an antagonist, a normal and relatable everyday individual becoming a reprehensible villain. So, with this story and its characters, the badder the better.
The fans hated Ted for two primary reasons, his stupidity and his subplot. Ted was a moron, and his reluctance to pay the IRS got on many fans' nerves. Unfortunately, his storyline was also intrinsically linked to Skyler, and many people found it boring.
The case of Gretchen and Elliott is much like the case with Skyler, the fan base hates them because we see them through Walt's point of view. For much of the series, Gretchen and Elliott are painted as quasi-villains, as Walt clearly holds contempt for their accomplishments, their past history, and their seemingly selfish behavior.
10 Lydia Rodarte-Quayle. Lydia is a late-stage addition to the show, but she still managed to make an impact. Lydia wasn't introduced until season five, as she and Madrigal were the suppliers of Gustavo Fring 's methylamine. Once Gus' empire collapsed because of Walt, she transitioned to his empire.
It's a common opinion that Breaking Bad is better than the cousins. Breaking Bad is often nuanced and complex, whereas the cousins are straight out of some corny action movie.
Lydia escorts Hank Schrader and Steven Gomez to the Madrigal warehouse and leads them to Ron Forenall, the supervisor, who is arrested.
Later, Mike travels to Houston and sneaks into Lydia's house (also occupied by her daughter Kiira and a hired nanny) to kill her for mandating the deaths of Chris and Duane Chow. Lydia begs him to leave her body in the house so that her daughter won't think she was abandoned.
Finding herself at an impasse with Mike, Lydia warns him that he still has Gus's respect and warns him not to lose it. Later, Lydia calls Gus to complain about Mike. Gus curtly ends the call and advises Lydia to give Mike a security badge if she does not want him to steal other employees.
He insists to Walt and Jesse that she needs to be killed, until they discover that the DEA secretly planted tracking devices on every methylamine barrel in the Madrigal warehouse. Since her supply is now compromised, Lydia tries to regain her value before the guys decide to kill her anyway.
Desperate, Lydia blurts out that she can direct them to "an ocean" of methylamine in exchange for her safety ("Dead Freight") . Lydia telling Mike, Jesse, and Walt how to pull off the train heist.
Later at a coffee shop, Walt asks Lydia for the names of Mike's men. Concerned that Walt will kill her once she gives up the list, Lydia argues for her continued usefulness by proposing he use Madrigal's resources to expand the business into the Czech Republic. Walt hears her out, and agrees to a trial run of her plan.
Lydia is a long-time employee of the German manufacturing and shipping conglomerate Madrigal Electromotive GmbH, working out of their office in Houston, Texas. She was eventually promoted to Head of Logistics and was awarded a Platinum Award in recognition of "Outstanding Leadership in Business." She was at one point possibly married or in a relationship and she eventually had a daughter named Kiira. However it appears that Lydia's partner or husband left the both of them, leaving Lydia to raise her daughter alone.
We cooked up a list of the most shocking moments from a modern classic that deserves a revisit.
When chemistry teacher Walter White is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given only two years to live, he decides he has nothing to lose. He lives with his teenage son, who has cerebral palsy, and his wife, in New Mexico. Determined to ensure that his family will have a secure future, Walt embarks on a career of drugs and crime.
Jesse Pinkman was originally slated to be written out by the 9th episode. During the hiatus caused by the writers' strike, creator Vince Gilligan, impressed by Aaron Paul 's portrayal of Jesse, decided to reinstate the character.
Matlock was the direct descendant of Perry Mason up there, using basically the same format: a super fantastic defense attorney represents only innocent people accused of murder in Atlanta (a surprisingly high number, obviously.) Matlock, however, took things a few steps further. First of all, they chose an interesting person to play Ben Matlock:
Perry Mason was one of the first TV police dramas, it taught TV producers that people will watch folk in trouble with the law, and it paved the way for CSI and all of today’s crime shows.
Law and Order has been on the air since the Senior Bush administration, and is still popular enough to be shown in syndication somewhere in the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It has featured some of television’s greatest lawyers, such as Jack McCoy, whose incredulous expression and gravelly voice has spelled doom for many a defendant. However, it has had its share of bad lawyers. We must look to Law and Order’s spinoff series, Law and Order SVU for a particularly uncouth counselor.

Ken swiped Walter White 's parking space in the Mesa Credit Union parking lot, all the while boasting into his Bluetooth headset and ignoring Walt.
El Camino brings us more Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul), and while Saul serves as an origin story of sorts for Jimmy/Saul (and for Jonathan Banks’s Mike Ehrmantraut), El Camino is an immediate continuation of that searing Breaking Bad finale). Jesse Pinkman drives off in that car—an El Camino—and what we’re about to see is what happens next.
They pull their Rolex scam for old times sake, but Marco dies in the process, and Jimmy inherits his pinky ring, one Saul Goodman will be seen wearing in Breaking Bad (“Marco”). The experience pushes Jimmy back to his Slippin’ Jimmy ways.
Mike asks Gus to launder money for him (“ Slip”) and gets “hired” by Lydia as a security consultant (“Fall”). •Jimmy “slips” on a chicken bone while filming a commercial (“Slip”). •Hector has a heart attack and his doctored pills do not act as they should (“Lantern”). Gus performs CPR and suspects Nacho.
The penultimate episode of the series shows us six months, the final episode takes three days. But that was all before Better Call Saul, and well before the premiere of the Breaking Bad movie, El Camino.
•Jesse Pinkman is a student at J. P. Wynne High School, and is one of Walter White’s chemistry students—a bad one. But he does earn a high school diploma (confirmed in El Camino ). He also joins the band TwaüghtHammër ( BB minisode).
But there’s also the Breaking Bad -iverse, set in Vince Gilligan’s New Mexico. First, it was just the story of Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and company.
•In the film’s opening flashback, Jesse and Mike meet on a secluded riverbank and talk about leaving the business. Once they realize they’re on the same page, Jesse asks Mike what he would do if he could “start over, start fresh,” and Mike tells him he’d move to Alaska. The idea appeals to Jesse, who wants to “set things right;” Mike tells him that’s the one thing he’ll never be able to do. This might also be the river where Mike later dies? It’s unclear.
