I waited a long time to watch this show, mainly because I was afraid it was going to be another re-hash of Breaking Bad, something like a bad spinoff. However, a lot of people have recommended this to me, and out of great respect to Vince Gilligan, I decided to watch it.
I really enjoyed this first episode, looks like it's going to be slower paced than Breaking Bad, but I found the story to be very compelling and it's still all very "Vince Gilligan-esque". From watching Breaking Bad alone, I always thought Jimmy (or Saul) was a very good character, maybe even a great one, but I was never too sure that he was interesting enough to have his own TV show. Let's hope I'm wrong about that, but I will say that from this first episode, it starts off very promising.
