I understand that. But my point is, it may be a good character study, but we got that in BrBa. I feel like it's a waste of a great character in Saul. I know it's hip on here to talk about how this show is better than BrBa, and 40 minutes of Mike trying to kill a spider, but accidentally unplugs his TV and modem and it ends on a cliffhanger of him trying to remember his wifi password, but as much as I love Mike, I'd still rather see more of Saul.
Just imagine a more serious version of It's Always Sunny with an ensemble of Saul, Mike, Huel, Burr and whoever else. I'm more interested in learning about the secretary he had on BrBa than I am in his brother or Kim.

Walt was never good either. He was a whipped ego maniac. He starts losing it fairly early in the show, and his hubris over Grey matter is ultimately the root of all his problems. We don't need every detail of Slipping Jimmy's past. It's not necessary. Saul is compelling character and they had the opportunity to make him the center of all kinds of interesting characters in his clients and the people they associate with. It wasn't necessary to take such a goofy character and spend almost the entire series focused on intense drama of his past before he even became that character.

Kim and Chuck are both very well written characters. The new characters are the most compelling aspect of the show. You need to get over your Breaking Bad high and either move forward or realize you're never going to get that same experience again and embrace new ideas.

Saul literally has the same motivation as Walt now. He wants to stick it to Howard, and show that he can become an enormous success on his own terms. Walt did the same thing with that company that screwed him over. They're both turning to the dark side for the same reasons.

Except a number of people who don't like it. I don't mean a full on comedy, I mean a more lighthearted and fun show about Saul. Not a bone chilling slow burn about Jimmy.
And I do like the show. As I said, Saul was my favorite character. I just wish he had become Saul by at least season 2, maybe the beginning of season 3. It didn't even take this long for Walt to become Heisenberg.

I know, and that's boring. We've already been down this road.

BCS in its current state is so much better than le wacky lawyer weekly shenanigans with Saul the caricature that we could have gotten. I'm seriously convinced that the people who criticize this show for taking so long with Jimmy's development in to Saul are just trying to compensate for wanting to experience Breaking Bad for the first time again.
>Not a bone chilling slow burn about Jimmy. Slow burns make the greatest fires.

Hubris plays a part in both of their lives, but it's not the sole reason that they turn out that way, it's the challenges that they overcome transforming them, Walt had his back against the wall with Gus, he had no other options, Jimmy did too with Chuck, their skills is what made them succeed but they just don't know when to stop and it leads to their doom, quite tragic figures really
