I think this is really cool and interesting and def makes sense, wether that‘s a good or bad thing I won‘t judge but watching BCS makes it almost unbelievavle to the viewer that the character would ever end up as Saul Goodman which is probably just in the nature of characters like that...They don‘t believably work if you peel off the outer layer and try to look under the surface. Idk neither good nor bad just interesting from a writing persepctive imo

Alan Sepinwall: “It’s Amazing How Hard It Was To Get [Better Call Saul] Right.” Vince Gilligan:

Alan Sepinwall: “It’s amazing how hard it was to get [Better Call Saul] right.” Vince Gilligan: “The question we should’ve ask ourselves from the beginning; ‘Is Saul Goodman an interesting enough character to build a show around?’ And the truth is, we came to the conclusion, after we already had the deal in hand [and] AMC and Sony had already put up the money, ‘I don’t think we have a show here, because I don’t think we have a character who could support a show.’ He’s a great flavoring, he’s a wonderful saffron that you sprinkle on your Risotto. But you don’t want to eat a bowl full of saffron, you gotta have the rice, you know? You gotta have the substance.

“And it dawned on us that this character seemed so comfortable in his own skin. Peter and I do not possess those kinds of personalities. We thought, ‘Regardless how much comedy is in it, how do you find drama in a guy who’s basically okay with himself?’ So then we thought, ‘Well, who was he before he was Saul Goodman?’

“Because the show is named Better Call Saul, we thought that we had to get to this guy quick or else people will accuse us of false advertising — a bait and switch. Then lo and behold, season after season went by and it dawned on us, we don’t want to get to Saul Goodman … and that’s the tragedy.

“If we had thought all of this from the get-go, that would have made us very smart. But as it turns out, we’re very plodding and dumb, and it takes forever to figure this stuff out. Which is why we’re perfectly matched for a TV schedule versus a movie schedule, because you got to get it right the first time when you’re writing a movie. It took us forever to get it right.”
