Breaking Bad Writer Explains One of Saul Goodman’s Sleaziest Lines
Breaking Bad writer Thomas Schnauz explains a particularly sleazy line from criminal attorney Saul Goodman. First airing in 2008 on AMC, Breaking Bad would go on to earn a reputation as one of the best TV shows of all time. Created by Vince Gilligan, the show chronicled the terminally ill Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and his journey from mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher to New Mexico drug lord Heisenberg. Breaking Bad ran for 5 critically-acclaimed seasons before ultimately coming to a close in 2013.
Although first introduced as a relatively minor character, Bob Odenkirk's Saul Goodman would go on to play a more important role in the show moving forward before even getting his very own spinoff series, Better Call Saul. Breaking Bad introduces Saul as Walter's crooked attorney, a fast-talking, bribe-taking friend of the cartel. The character makes it through the series unscathed, setting off to an unknown fate after leaving White, his former client, behind. Better Call Saul explores the character's origin and chronicles Jimmy McGill's journey to becoming Saul Goodman, even hinting at what became of the man following the events of Breaking Bad.
