@@r8m8s8 cartel twins died during breaking bad and had enough shots of their childhood. And scenes in Better Call Saul. It's going to be mindless murder for the entire season.
Salamancas
POV: you just finished watching better call Saul and you wanna watch videos about it
LoL I finished it today and here I am
I always felt like Saul was hiding out as Gene for many years from the flash forwards. It was surprising to see it was less than a year in the final episode.
Yes, I was like wtf...You couldn't last more than 6 months?🤦♂️ I'm guessing poor old Jesse can't run forever either...
Jesse did the right thing taking Mike’s advice
@@youtuberabbithole6002 its's the Saul Goodman persona in him, it just boils up to the surface
@@youtuberabbithole6002 i think Jesse will get away with it. Jimmy only got caught because he started running that scam and because he was a well known micro-celebrity with his face plastered all over benches and advertisements. I think as long as Jesse keeps to himself and lives a modest life then he could get away with it.
@@youtuberabbithole6002 Jesse just got into the world of meth for money. He would never straight up hurt anyone. He only did because he’d listen and look up to Walt a lot and if he felt their lives were in danger. Jesse will be fine as Mr. Driscoll in Alaska.
Gene timeline - the hint about the timeline being October / November 2010 was given through a couple of football references. The writers mention that Gene subconsciously wanted to get caught. He was depressed living alone. He kept acting paranoid. But also made those small time cons once he figured Jeff wasn’t a threat and that he himself was just being paranoid and scared at first that he may call the police.
Jimmy making his 8 year sentence more than 80 makes me feel bad
He still only did 8 years
Does not make any sense to me in the BCS ending
The time machine flashbacks are so underappreciated. The first two with Mike and Walt showcases Jimmy choosing the "Just Make Money" option (What Lalo told Jimmy when Lalo asked about the meaning of JMM on Jimmy's briefcase) instead of "Justice Matters Most". In spite of choosing that, you can see the emotional dishonesty in Jimmy/ Saul after Mike and Walt's response to his answer. In the third flashback, Chuck told Jimmy how he could always change his path if he doesn't like where he's headed, and in this case he's heading towards a direction where Kim disapproves of him suppressing his feelings about Chuck, Howard, and their deaths. In my view, while Saul does it for the money, Jimmy does things for Kim. That's why despite owning up to all his actions and further incriminating himself in court, Kim does not reciprocate Jimmy's Fingerbang gesture at the final scene.
In addition, the Time Machine is a simple yet great metaphor to relate to one of the main themes of the show: Justice. You can't change what's occurred in the past, but you can learn from it and change the future. We've become so conditioned to Saul and Gene's ways that we forget that this show is still about James McGill.
Keep in mind that Chuck and Jimmy's conversation regarding the changing of paths happened obviously right before Jimmy asked both Mike and Walt. The Time Machine book can also be seen multiple times in Jimmy's possession (at Jimmy's nightstand at Kim's place on Season 6, and at Saul's house.) He's clearly impacted by the book and has thought of changing his path for so long.
A time machine? A meaningless question. Time… A time machine. Look, time travel, the kind of time travel that you’re thinking of, is a scientific impossibility. It would violate the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Alan Alda… he’s the expert. Oh, Christ. Are you kidding me? Quantum mechanics? We’re discussing that now? Stay in your lane. You are not talking about a time machine, which is both a real and theoretical impossibility. You are talking about regrets. So if you want to ask about regrets, just ask about regrets and leave all this time-traveling nonsense out of it.
@@stift9977 Walt was the realest character
Look at Kim’s fingers by her side in that final scene. She reciprocates.
@@one0hwon514 Not too "in plain sight", though
I would love to watch a re-cut version of Better Call Saul and breaking bad everything happening in order
Same 😁
Sounds cool but probably would be weird with the flashback scenes
@@_mark_3814 there would be no flashbacks if its in order
Still been waiting for something like that
Mike's young days as a police officer and how he ends up taking his first bribe and all the little things Mike talked about in s6 ep13 preintro scene when he was asked what he would do wid a time machine, would make an awesome spinoff.
Agreed!!
Vince was talking about that in an interview, that the next spin off might be Mike as a young cop in Philly, showing how he went dirty. They couldn't use Johnathan Banks as the star, and it would present some challenges with having to have all period correct clothes, and vehicles, but it could be done, just like in Boardwalk Empire.
@@stevenrichards3699a spin off for Mike without Jonathan banks just doesn’t make sense
@@shhhadoww Unless we have scenes with him in either the present day or just before BCS, they’d have to do a lot of digital work to de-age him considerably
A key thing to mention in the Gene and Marion timeline is that Gene let’s slip about the law related to bailing out someone in Omaha, Nebraska vs Albuquerque, New Mexico. That’s when Marion connects the dots (also because Jeffie got caught up in some bad company in New Mexico) and she looks up conman Albuquerque and finds out that Gene is Saul.
Boy, do i want the breaking bad universe to explore the 2010's
Kim Wexler Spin off or Walter White Jr spin off
@@juicewahwassel761 yeah we see adult walt jr eating breakfast every morning
I've been a fan of the whole Breaking Bad Universe throughout all of the different shows. I grew up in Central Florida, specifically the "Space Coast". How fun it was to find out Kim Wexler had moved here and was a neighbor.
Props to the production for actually filming here (unlike "The Right Stuff" and "I Dream of Jeannie" for example). Many of us here gotten a kick out of how the production changed and warped our local geography to fit us into the "BBEU". But I, for one am so proud and honored that they made us a tiny part of such a great story and magnificent group of shows...
I knew it was in Florida but had no idea that she was in Central Florida which is where I live myself but I'm in Orlando area and have been here since 2005
that would be such a trip
You should be also pleased by the fact that in BB when Jessee's escape via Vacuum man is considered, Saul proposes Florida as the destination for him (S05). At the time Saul knows that love of his life Kim is there, started her life with a clean slate.
P.S. They did not actually shoot in Florida, it was revealed on the insider podcast because of practical reasons :).
Loool they Never filmed in Florida...tmi, dude!
Edit...I know cuz I work for a PC & covid rules have made every dept. Cost 3xs!
Every project is using 1 location filming.
Saul bookends Walts' madness nicely
Why isn’t Kim featured more in this timeline? She’s a hugely important character. You should have included her going to work for HHM and pulling her first scam with Jimmy. You should also have included a bit of detail about how Howard Hamlin mistreated her, to explain why she wanted to take down Howard. The way you set up the timeline, that development makes no sense.
He probably wanted to keep the timeline short.
The simple answer is that it's only 17 minutes long
fax we need more of kim’s feet
Kim inherently is not that important to said time-line or narrative & she was just put in as an after thought as a "LI" but they did some interesting writing w/ her in the last se.
@@stephenkabler5401 kim sexler
This was an amazing timeline. Actually a really good video from Looper worth putting a like to.
What a series, movies, story absolutely impeccable.
VERY underrated video , this is literally a breaking bad summary
Nice recap! It would be helpful to keep the years or the decades up throughout the scenes, to help get a better sense of the timeline as we watch it. Just a suggestion :)
Rest in Peace, Nacho. You were a Demon who wanted to be an Angel, but you couldn't escape Hell's grip. In the end, at least you went out on your own terms, like a true Bastard.
Wth
😂😂
Bruh
Nacho was a scumbag just like all the rest, he lied about the people who tried to kill him, and he killed people himself when he and the twins shot up that body shop. People say "Oh Nacho was not like the rest". He was a criminal killer/drug dealer just like all of them.
he's out of line but he's right
This the greatest story ever told on television.
no it is not
@@ma.nu.22 What is then? Just letting you know in advance that it isn't pretentious shite like The Wire.
@@tcaudiobooks737 nah HBO Rome
@@ma.nu.22 Fair enough, it is fucking good!
Well put together, thanks for your effort...
Now that it is over..... I don't know what to do with my life.
Love this!
The Better Call Saul Score advertisement placement is the best and most appropriate ad placement on CZcams.
Majestic ending to a superb show, BCS is gold
Shitty ending !
@@stevenrichards3699Why was it shitty?
Amazing!
Artfully summarized.
Very good. Would like to see this in chart form.
I've never seen so many ads on a video under 20 mins
This is very well done.
New viewer - subscribed and liked!
I always wish Jimmy/Saul and Kim would have cried more.
why?
@@kaesekrustechannel Because the times I felt they should have cried were times that they should have cried.
@@daniellewis2133 many fans cried in their hearts secretly.
After seeing Kim break down on the bus....no thank you. She's not a convincing cryer AT ALL lol..
Haven’t seen this anywhere but I think you’re mistaken with the flash forward in S6 E9… That was definitely some time in 2009 when he was already working for Walt
I think you guys might not know the difference between “Explained” and “Recap”
not for the last time. she gets him out and they live happily ever after.
5:20
The epic music playing in the background of a man’s suicide is peak comedy.
Greatest TV series of all time!
F in the chat for Combo, Tomas & even Krazy 8 lol, not even a mention xD
Such a good series
I love BCS and BB
Lot of people said Jeff crashed on purpose to help Gene but I don’t think so. Gene saw the police outside so Jeff could’ve just pulled away n gene could’ve gone out the back door or the police follow Jeff and he leaves still anyway. Then Jeff wouldn’t of been in jail and Gene/Saul might have not been caught.
Tom Schnauz confirmed to me on Twitter that Jeff "f*cked up" and his crash wasn't deliberate.
Vince and Peter literally said they wrote it as he crashed on purpose lol
Yeah me too I think that he just got nervous n did something stupid. I don’t think he did it on purpose to help Saul get away. I highly doubt that. He could’ve easily acted like he was just picking a man up from a fare. It’s not against the law is it? But Jeff was so nervous that the cops might be there for them that he takes off loses control and crashes the car.
@@breakbad9753 where did they say that?
@@PeterMoore66 podcast
The part where Jesse and Walt kidnap Saul was left out of this?
perfect!
This is one of the best videos on CZcams I've ever watched!
Why wasn’t the Sandpiper money mentioned more in s06, I thought showing Jimmy/ Saul getting his million plus money throughHHM would’ve been featured. Or did I miss something?
Some of the best fiction ever made
As the video went on, I realized more and more that Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman is the real main character of the Breaking Bad universe.
me who has already watched both shows multiple times and finished season 6 of BCS: _"I'm six parallel universes ahead of you."_
Love getting into the psychology of all these characters, and it's easy to do with how detailed the writing is. I don't see much room for any "follow ups" though. Too many characters dead to go forward in time, actors getting too old to go further back in time. Jimmy's probably in prison for the rest of his life, Kim's living in Florida and they'll probably never meet face-to-face again (of course they'll call and write) so I just don't see much opportunity for further releases. The most interesting aspect left unanswered for me is what is Gus's background in Chile, how did he get hooked up with the CEO of Madrigal, and how did Lydia become involved? If you stop and think about it, those three are the MOST responsible for all the damage and death that came about, especially Gus. Without him having done all he did, Walter and Jimmy and the rest could never have done all they did.
I heard a theory that claimed gus never actually was from chile and was instead working with the US government to take down the pinochet government and it was super convincing. Wish there was a video about it but it was just a comment
I also noticed the actors getting old in my second watch, sadly it'd be very difficult to get a second spin off. For example Aaron Paul (Jesse): he looks much older when talking to Kim outside Saul's office. That should've happened before BB, he was a kid, but in BSC looked like a grown man.
0:00 also Alaska, florida, Nebraska and Kansas
Ok.. me again.. what's the name of the track at the beginning?
The series doesn't need some explaining, the show so good all scenes are beautifully presented from breaking bad to better call saul, unlike GOT
Yeah but you forget things cause these have been running for years so it's nice to have everything in a compact video
what a br ba universe it is, damn gotta tell u this is the one and only one series and nobody can make this gem ever again, BCS AND Br Ba are the series that everyone must watch legit.
It's all good man...
no outro? surprised
I'm yet to watch bcs s6 last two episodes. Should I watch this video? Guess I can watch except last two clips. And then watch last two episode's
Quite a ride .
Video relesed on my birthday lest go
Smooth sailing ⛵️
This the type of shit i watch when it’s 1 am and I need to get my ass to sleep
I didn't know about the suicide? What about the cameo in El Camino? And how does it tie into the story?
Lmao he literally explains how it’s Jesse story after breaking bad
Fine, but what about Huell Babineaux?!
What about Combo dude?
Does anyone know when the last season will b on netflix
Likely not for a year.
Wait till Jessica hears what passes for rap music now
Hello dear Looper, i ak a favour about a horror movie. In one scene , a guy runs scared in the house and in last moment, he gets into the bathroom with the lights on. He realise that he is safe there protected by light. But he left the door opened and see the a creature like a witch standing at the door's corner. Another people tells me that moviie is lights out but it s not.
Chuck was already divorced when Jimmy was sworn in as a lawyer.
Never realized how much this universe is similar to a GTA one.😂😂
Breaking Bad's timeline seems easy to assume since it starts with Skylar about to give birth and ends when the little girl is about 18 months to maybe 2 yrs. old. Hard to believe all that took place is such a short amount of time.
I would really love breaking bad if it wasn’t so long in lore.
that was tough to watch..the forbidden cigerette
he was inspired by Kim he did save kim from sued he did to protector her
Question y’all, because I can’t find the episode: which episode shows/explains Walt breaking up with Gretchen because he felt inferior to her family’s wealth?
There is no episode it is confirmed by creator Vince gilligan that is what happened
In season 2, episode 6 “Peekaboo” Walt and Gretchen are at a restaurant talking and she’s just found out about Walt lying that she and Elliot were paying Walt’s medical bills. In that episode, she reminds him he’s the one who left her without giving an explanation and it’s implied that he left because of her family being wealthy. Walt says something along the lines of “poor rich girl, adding to your family’s wealth”.
@@HavetheLambsStoppedScreaming Thank you. As I wrote, I’ve tried finding the scene- much different than the way Vince Gilligan spoke of
you forgot the canon slippin jimmy events
Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad along with The Sopranos would have to be among the best TV crime dramas ever made.
Never watched the Sopranos, too early for my time, but give a shot to Sons of Anarchy. I'm always undecided whether my favourite show is that or BB!
@@VIVALARAZABIANCONERA sopranos is goated
Need to know how and when Tuco got out and what did he do upon release and what was his reaction to see Hector in a wheelchair and Lalo dead. BB and BCS don’t explain that.
I get where you’re coming from, but I don’t think we need to see Tuco’s reaction to those events. Especially from a thematic standpoint, Tuco is a rather minor character, so while I’ll freely admit it would’ve been cool to see, I don’t think it would’ve significantly contributed to the franchise narratively/thematically. Now, as for what Tuco did after getting out, Lalo states in BCS that Tuco is going to maintain Salamanca interests in the U.S, so what we see of him in BrBa is what he was likely doing the entire time he was out of prison.
Something I don’t understand, in BB, S2E8, “Better Call Saul”, Saul says that “it was Ignacio”, and was surprised when Jesse and Walter don’t work for Lalo, but…both Lalo and Nacho are dead? I don’t understand why Saul would say that, did the writers just forget about this detail when writing BCS?
Saul was never informed about Nacho’s death. And the first time he believed that Lalo was dead, he showed up randomly in his apartment. So he just simply doesn’t fully ever believe that Lalo is actually dead, he just has to believe Mike. Saul never saw Lalo’s body or has any idea where his remains are. For all he knows, Lalo will pop up and ruin his life again. But Saul was trying to tell Lalo that Nacho was the one who put a hit on Lalo’s home, not him. So.. flash forward to the dessert, he assumes Walt and Jesse are Lalo, so again he frantically tries to explain that “IT WASNT ME IT WAS IGNACIO”!!
It's saulin time
So, should I watch Better Call Saul or Breaking Bad first to follow the timeline?
call Sal Goodman.
Tragic but deserved
I just don’t see Saul who he had become not accepting his 7 years and Rocky road ice cream everyday ! I think that was his real ending the other part was a dream he had the last night of his sentence in North Carolina prison.
Imagine a Breaking Bad Trilogy made like Godfather III. BB, BBGT, BCS
What is BBGT
What is BBGT
Jesse was the only one that won.
this is why i tell every naive person to watch BCS then BB and then EC
Got a Bryan Cranston ad… sweet
❤
Better Call Saul is goat !
How was jesse in high school for 8 years
I too, question the timeline. I think the year when Jimmy goes to jail, would be more like 2015. Kim didn't get that old and dumpy looking, nor did Jimmy lose all his hair in 6 months.
wait, there was a breaking bad movie????????? and it released 4 years ago????????? holy shit~!
Ok
That ending pissed me off Why couldn’t he lie one more time then when he got out tell the truth 🤦♂️ 😂
Walt def didn't die
Hank didnt save walt and jesse from tuco. They already had him basically dead and couldve prevented anything tuco tried.
Tuco was up and well when hank came. Plus the cousins were already on their way, and they would have sought out Walt and Jesse with tucos help
2006
I just have one question, if nacho died before walter white started making meth. how was he in breaking bad? my memory is not serving me well right now lol
He isn’t in Breaking Bad.
@@facelessandnameless oh man. i remember now. he was just mentioned once haha damn
Youre wrong about why Walter shoots Mike. Walter shoots Mike because he wants the list of names and Mike wont give it to him.
It was a combination of that and Mike brutally hitting Walt's fragile ego by telling him to know his place.
Not 2001
Dunno if someone else has already mentioned this, but it literally just occurred to me watching this…
When Combo gets killed, it’s kinda because they had such an unwarranted reputation… Combo seems to embrace the potential of Jessie’s offer more readily than the others. He even personifies the puffer fish much more so than Jessie… literally puffing up his chest flashing a piece to the big scary car, before getting popped unexpectedly by a child.
This is no way to describe such fun univers XD seriously? You guys don't have supervisor or something? 😂
Does not make sense, Walt died in 2010, Jimmy went to Omaha, and was working at Cinabon. When Jimmy gets sent to prison, it has to be much later than 2010.
Walt dies september 7 2010 everything after that is about 3 months until december 2010 when saul is sentenced
Not a well timeline
This is not very good. I mean, it didnt even talk about the overlapping scenes???
Um, actually, you forgot about the « Slippin’ Jimmy » cartoon about jimmy’s cartoon🤓
Is what i would say if i was a NE-
