If there were one, the Salamancas [Hector, Lalo, Tuco, the Twins] AND Eladio/Bolsa. Plus, it's still a mystery what Gus was doing in Chile & how he went from chicken man to drug dealer.

In a vacuum, you're absolutely right. Lalo is the most interesting story, by far. But it was hard to do just one prequel with all the actors getting older. Imagine trying to do another with actors in their 50's-60's trying to play 20-year-olds. If they ever did another spin-off, I think there's only one direction they can go and that's after the final episode of BCS.

Jimmy is inspired by Kim coming forward to atone for his own sins. I think he had every intention of taking the 7 year deal until he heard the news about Kim going to the DA and then Howard's wife. It changed his plans completely because he understood why he did it. And that's why we get the 4th and final Jimmy persona: from Slippin' Jimmy to Saul Goodman to Gene Takovic to James McGill.

I loved how the show ended. Jimmy proving to himself, the audience, and the prosecution representing everyone that always doubted his ability as a lawyer that he's become one of the best lawyers around. Perhaps even better than his brother Chuck despite their different approaches to practicing law. Where Chuck was practically worshipped in the field while Jimmy was always castigated and told by his clients that he was a lawyer only guilty people hire. After proving that, he didn't need the Saul persona anymore and the only thing Jimmy really needed now to feel fulfilled was Kim's approval and show her that he's back to being the man she fell in love with years ago.

I can imagine a good spoof ending, where it's like "The Producers", with Jimmy giving out legal advice, to the guards as well, and kicking some percentage up to the warden.

Vince Gilligan is not only a creative genius who has given me hours of entertainment, he is also a great guy, I met him as his waiter in a revolving restaurant in NYC, when he was having dinner. Just a great modest sincere guy. Nice to see he is so successful!

Interesting reference to redemption in "A Christmas Carol" since Saul was 'visited' by his ghosts in the flashbacks, Mike, Walter and Chuck.

The reason the prosecutor's no-loss record was of note was only in part to show that he was good. It was also leverage Saul used to press home that he posed a threat to that record, which was a big part of that guy's rep and prospects down the line.

I have such respect for Vince Gilligan, Peter Gould and all the creative forces behind this show. Yes, they were able to craft 11 or 12 seasons of incredible television. But the way they were interwoven in Saul, often multiple times within individual episodes, was just remarkable.

Great interview !!. If Vince was to do another spin-off show in the future, I think it would be difficult to pull it off as the actors would be that very much older in a few years time. Who know's, if Vince's new project is an outstanding success, people may want more of the same from that. Time will tell !!
