Better Call Saul - does it get better?

I've heard this show is brilliant but we're on the 3rd episode and really struggling

Finding it really dull! Is it worth sticking with?

In case it's relevant, I never got into Breaking Bad despite watching several seasons

I made it to the second season and it didn't get any better. Not sure what everyone sees in it.

I watched Breaking Bad all the way through.

IMO no it doesn't. And I've seen a lot more of it than I would have chosen as my boyfriend loves it.

Yea it does!

If you aren't enjoying it yet, and you didn't enjoy Breaking Bad even after giving it more than a fair chance, I can't see you suddenly starting to enjoy BCS.

It moves way to slowly start which makes it hard to stick with. To be honest if you didn’t get through breaking bad then this isn’t the series for you

I think it's one of the best series ever. But I am not you and it is a slow burner. Also, having enjoyed Breaking Bad does really help because the point of the show is how Jimmy becomes Saul and knowimg what happened to Saul helps.

Yeah, it definitely does, but I'm a big BCS fan though. I love the storylines and the level of detail in them. I love the setting. I love how they take their time properly developing the characters and how nuanced it is. I love the humour. I'm currently watching series 6, and episode 3 is one of the best pieces of TV I've seen in a long time. I think if you didn't enjoy Breaking Bad then perhaps it just isn't your cup of tea?

I found it marginally better than breaking bad but still quite dire. Wish I hadn't wasted my time on these because 'it's so good/ it gets better'.

I would have thought of BB wasn’t your thing then BCS definitely isn’t for you.

For me BB is still one of the best tv series I’ve ever watched. BCS did start slow but the whole point is you are seeing how Jimmy became Saul. I’m loving this last season as it is starting to collide with BB and the characters from BB are appearing.

Just don’t want it to end.

Yeah, I really liked BB but have struggled a bit with BCS.

It's OK to pass an evening, but I don't get all the fuss about it.

Hmm I love it but it is deliberately slow paced and that doesn't change. I also really enjoyed BB so if you didn't you may want to cut your losses with this one
