Anyone watch this without having seen Breaking Bad?


I and anyone I have come across watched Breaking Bad before Better Call Saul, but has anyone actually watched Better Call Saul without ever having seen Breaking Bad? What is your view of the series without knowing what occurs in Breaking Bad? Does the show make sense on its own?

I would imagine that the black and white sequences might be a tad confusing but I see no reason why they couldn’t follow the main storyline.

Better Call Saul was my introduction to the Breaking Bad universe. I started watching BCS the first season and have always thought the storylines were excellent.

I just started BB on Netflix.

So far I prefer Better Call Saul, but I think that's because the Jimmy & Chuck relationship is more interesting to me than the cartel stuff.

Yeah, Breaking Bad is incredible, but Better Call Saul seems to be more “intelligent” as series.

I totally agree with this.

woah, that's an interesting order to watch, reminds me of people who grew up with the Star Wars prequels first
