    The first season is pretty bad. It feels so low budget, low stakes and boring.

    I wonder if Better Call Saul would be a better entry point and then you’d be more invested in these characters and situations so you could deal with the slow pace of season one of BB

    BCS knew what they were doing and had a larger budget from the get go, so you can feel the storylines immediately without revealing too much about the end of BB

      If pacing is a problem with Breaking Bad’s first season, Better Call Saul offers no relief there. I love it, much more than I liked Breaking Bad, but the plot was a very slow crawl.
