    That was a decent enough first episode, introduced a couple of characters from Breaking Bad and gave us a base to the back story for the Saul character.

    Has a similar feel to Breaking Bad, think it should be good.

    Haven't watched this yet! I hate pilots! It usually takes me a few episodes to get into any tv show..

    Love the first two episodes. I thought this was going to be a comedy but it is anything but, which I actually prefer.

    Bob Odenkirk is fantastic and can definitely carry this show on his own. It's going to be interesting to see the development of Mike aswell, he was one of my favourite characters from Breaking Bad.

    Never seen Breaking Bad but this show has been high quality so far. Bob Odenkirk plays his part well.

    I suggest you put off watching this and go enjoy 5 incredible seasons of breaking bad.

    It will make you appreciate this show more as I am sure there will be lots of Breaking Bad references :50:

    I had a wee read up on Breaking Bad after watching the first episode. Although is this programme not essentially the characters life prior to his interactions with Walter White.

    At least this is my understanding of the show.

    Yeh that's right, I didn't think of that. You might be best leaving Breaking Bad till after this has finished then :50:

    Only thing about not watching BB first is you don't know if there will be any flash forwards like the very start of the first episode.

    You'll be better watching Breaking Bad first or you won't get half of the * that's going on.

    There's only been 2 episodes and a shitload of cross referencing already.
