On a different topic, has anyone watched “Better Call Saul,” the spinoff from “Breaking Bad?” I read all kinds of praises for it, but I’ve watched a few episodes and it seems like a jumbled mess of unfunny cliches to me.

I thought it was really great.

I tried on Netflix, but I just couldn’t get into it.

I guess you need an emotional connection to the principal characters which I guess you could only get from Breaking Bad. With that in place, I’ve found it very engaging, with Saul being the most sympathetic anti-hero I’ve ever come across.

I got about half-way through the first episode of Breaking Bad, turned the channel and never went back. Did the same for Saul.

Saul is a tragic comedy, so it’s not supposed to be funny funny, it’s supposed to be shake your head with sadness funny. I like the show, but it’s definitely an odd tone not fit for everybody.

Better Call Saul is the best show on TV.

It gets better each episode. The end of Season 1 is a real heartbreaker.

I did the same & came away with the same feeling. Not worth my time. Been watching Burn Notice.
