Better Call Saul (72)
Some of my earliest reviews in late 2017 were of the first three seasons of Better Call Saul. I had seen the show before, but don't worry there are no spoilers for future episodes in any of my reviews. Seasons 4-6 were reviewed as they aired.
Better Call Saul is one of my all-time favourite TV shows. Being a prequel to the wildly popular Breaking Bad comes with limitations, but Better Call Saul ended up being a perfect example of how to work around these limitations. Better Call Saul never lived in Breaking Bad's shadow, as it focused on telling its own story and exploring characters in interesting, new ways while only occasionally connecting back to its predecessor, and doing so in ways that served the story. The show was stronger for this, and at times, it even surpassed Breaking Bad in terms of quality. The team that worked on this show had learned from Breaking Bad, and the result was a TV show with stronger writing, cinematography, and character-centric storytelling. You must watch Breaking Bad first, but if you have seen Breaking Bad and not Better Call Saul, what are you waiting for? This is justifiably one of the best TV shows out there.
