Anyways, his brother helped set up the law firm which is trying to keep him on the books to keep from paying him the millions they'd owe him, and Jimmy's trying to get him a big pay day, even though his brother can't admit his days of lawyering may be behind him.įor the most part, this first episode is all about establishing McGill, who's yet to embrace his criminal side. Much of the pilot focuses on him trying to negotiate a buy-out for his more successful lawyer brother Chuck ( Michael McKean) who suffers from a little understood (but apparently real) disease called EMF in which suffers are hyper-sensitive to electromagnetic energy (he'd likely fare much worse in our current wi-fi world). For all of his later shady dealings, here Jimmy seems to about about 70% or so honest. We pick up on Jimmy circa 2001, as he defends necrophiliac teens for the princely sum of $700, before following him around as he tries to keep his practice afloat. However, as advertised most of BETTER CALL SAUL will likely focus on Saul, or rather Jimmy McGill's early career. While it seems that the majority of the show will be a prequel, scenes like this suggest that Saul's eventual fate will play a major part in how the show plays out. There's something fitting about showing Saul trying to make a go of things, a shadow of his former self (even his comb-over has gone to seed).

REVIEW: BETTER CALL SAUL opens very similar to the way BREAKING BAD used to, in media res, with the interesting part being that the bit depicts Saul after his dealings with Walt, doing exactly what he always said his best option at this point would be, managing a Cinnabon in Omaha. PLOT: Years before he meets Walter White, Saul Goodman, aka Jimmy McGill ( Bob Odenkirk) is a struggling lawyer eking out a living in New Mexico. Thus, if you've yet to see the episode in question, DO NOT GO ANY FURTHER. This recap/review of BETTER CALL SAUL is written with the expectation that everyone who reads this and comments below will have seen the episode already.
