Is anyone watching this? It premiered tonight.

It's starting off slow, but it's looking to be a pretty decent show so far. If it's anything like Breaking Bad, it will be worth a watch.

Caught the second half. I like it


I'm a huge fan of odenkirk (mr. Show!) and so far it seems less dark than breaking bad (which i like)


Second episode is coming up. I hope it starts rollin

Really enjoyed the first episode. Definitely falls right in line with BB in terms of style. Wasn't expecting much but I'm definitely a fan. Great pilot

Same here. I'm really interested in this whole Tuco storyline that ended last episode. Now if only I can get my wife to stop watching The Bachelor so I can turn it on! lol

I have a question for the more well-informed: can I start watching this without having seen Breaking Bad first?

(Yeah yeah, I know I NEED to watch Breaking Bad.)

Same here. It kind of started off like BB in that it started off really slow then really picked up at the end. I definitely would've liked them to continue the Breaking Bad storyline somehow, but if this is a decent enough consolation prize, that will suffice.

Probably. I think it's in the same "world" as BB, but you don't necessarily need to have watched it beforehand. It's probably going to be more subtle references rather than intertwined story lines, though I could very well be wrong.

I wouldn't say you HAVE to watch BB to understand it. But it's much more enjoyable if you understand the random references, how Saul came to be, etc.
