Can't think of another spin off which has been as good if not better than the original. It's brilliant.

I do genuinely think it's better than BB. Cannot wait for the last half-season.

Think I might watch the last season of Breaking Bad again before the second half just so I don't miss any moments where the timeline comes together.

Sat down to watch S1E1 of Better Call Saul a couple of nights ago and turned it off. Guessing I should stick with it? Warnock

Aye I watched the first series a few years ago and thought it was pretty crap. Guess that was the same with Breaking Bad though so probably due another go at some point Warnock

Watched that Pistols on Disney+. Series loosely based on the real events of the Sex Pistols.

You can tell it's one person's point of view on something they experienced whilst fucked.

I just ploughed through 3 seasons of better call saul over the last few weeks. I'd done the same as others and given up on it a few years back.

Just incredible tv, I'd agree it's better overall than Breaking Bad, though the high points of breaking bad are better.

Will need to revisit it then…I did the same.

Done that annoying thing where everyone is going to die but they all survive but aye fair enough it added to the tension and was well done. I thought the outcome with Eleven and One was shite tbh. Most scenes were fantastic as the budget was so high. Ending I just thought was terrible like, nae one bothered about Eddie dying na? I swear I've seen that whole situation with thinking they've won and it coming back 15 times

Just finished Yellowjackets, felt it was decent but

Spoiler :
IMO they milked it by spending about 6 episodes focusing on character backstories, then a couple where the actual story starts to kick in, and crammed the finale with stuff to keep you hanging on for season 2 without any conclusion to anything from season 1, suppose that’s standard practice but this could’ve been a neat 16 episode stand alone season, can see this going into 3 or 4 seasons similar to Lost

I know I’m way behind the times but 6 episodes into The Wire. Decent so far, heard it took a while to get into.
