Better Call Saul star Bob Odenkirk teases that the series will feature more crossovers with Breaking Bad than ever before. Breaking Bad, which ran on AMC from 2008 to 2013 and follows a high school teacher discovering he has a terminal illness and deciding to make quick money in the Alburqeque meth industry, is one of the most enduringly popular series of recent years. Its spinoff, Better Call Saul, which follows the origin story of Odenkirk's character Saul Goodman, an alias of small-time attorney Jimmy McGill, has now run for nearly as long and is preparing to enter season 6, its final season.
Better Call Saul has never been afraid of flaunting its ties to Breaking Bad, though they usually only cross over with minor characters from the original series. This includes rival dealer Krazy-8 (Max Arciniega), loveable waitress Fran (Debrianna Mansini), and the imposing Huell Babineaux (Lavell Crawford). Season 5 kicked things up a notch, reintroducing DEA special agents Hank Schrader (Dean Norris, who was a main character for every season of Breaking Bad) and Steven Gomez (Steven Michael Quezada), as well as The Disappearer Ed Galbraith (Robert Forster) and financier Peter Schuler (Norbert Weisser).
