amc AMC Eyes Breaking Bad Spin-Off Centered Around Saul Goodman

[Rappy Veteran]

AMC isn?t ready to let Breaking Bad go.

With the drama heading into its final eight-episode run this summer, the network is exploring the idea of a spinoff centered around Bob Odenkirk?s shady criminal lawyer Saul Goodman, Deadline reports.

The idea is said to be in the very early stages, with no deals in place in front of or behind the camera. But if the project ? which is being conceived as a comedy ? were to get a green light, Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan would steer the offshoot alongside the show?s writer-producer Peter Gould.

Gilligan floated the idea of a Saul-centric series at the WGA Awards earlier this year, telling TVLine, ?In my mind?s eye, I would like to see a Saul Goodman spin-off. I would love that. So maybe we?ll try to get that going.?

I'd watch it :)

I'd start watching it, but I think it would be good for maybe 6 episodes. They'd really have to develop some strong supporting characters.

He was great in his cameo not too long ago on The Office. But he was basically playing the same character.

I'm interested of course, but I'm not sure how they could make a compelling series out of it.

I'd watch it, might have some potential, but not for more than a season. A spinoff around Gus and/or Mike might be more watchable IMO.

I'd watch the hell out of that show.

A spin off I would actually be interested in.

It might be interesting. I'd watch it.

A spinoff around Gus and/or Mike might be more watchable IMO.

Definitely. They could fill in some of the missing details and give a better insight into the scale of the operation.

Just make sure this final half season does not disappoint.

AMC seem to be consistently bringing out some of the most entertaining American dramas.

I'd rather see something completely new after BB.

Meh. He's what I like to call a candy character; you love it, but if you have too much you start getting sick of it.
