Just finished the first series of
Better Call Saul. Fantastic - really enjoyed it and once again, not what I thought it was going to be. Especially after what happened in the first two episodes where he ran into the Mexican drugs guy. I thought, "here we go" on the road to Saul Goodman. But no, in a nice surprise, the show seems to be content in meandering it's way towards where we know it will eventually end up. It's one of those slow-burn approachs that really works and the character of Jimmy McGill is being nicely fleshed out as we go along. Really odd sub-plot with his brother but even this has a nice pay-off by episode 10.
I know I'm about six years behind on this, but that means I have a lot of great TV between now and Christmas.
