Extreme Better Call Saul's Jimmy McGill Seeds Were Planted In A Classic SNL Character
Decades before Better Call Saul first aired, the seeds for the show’s main character Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) were planted in a classic Saturday Night Live personality. Jimmy shares similarities with a character Odenkirk wrote for SNL nearly thirty years ago: Matt Foley (Chris Farley), a crass, over-caffeinated motivational speaker who lives in a van down by the river. At first glance, Foley seems a far cry from Jimmy, but the SNL character’s origins demonstrate that he has more in common with Better Call Saul’s leading man than first meets the eye.
