Breaking Bad follows protagonist Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a chemistry teacher who lives in New Mexico with his wife (Anna Gunn) and teenage son (RJ Mitte) who has cerebral palsy. White is diagnosed with Stage III cancer and given a prognosis of two years left to live. With a new sense of fearlessness based on his medical prognosis, and a desire to secure his family's financial security, White chooses to enter a dangerous world of drugs and crime and ascends to power in the world. The series explores how a fatal diagnosis such as White's releases a typical man from the daily concerns and constraints of normal society and follows his transformation from mild family man to a kingpin of the drug trade.
Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

Mike Ehrmantraut vs Saul Goodman | Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul
/ breakingbad
I really love when these two are together. Part of me really wishes they could’ve been friends but they sadly never were
Hello Saul
I think Howard getting killed is what buried any chance of them being friends
وايلي واش ايمن رشيد اللي يمكن كنعرف؟؟
I don't think they ever really saw eye eye in bcs or brba
Mike loved him like a stepbrother
“Thank you for restoring my faith in the judicial system” takes on a whole new meaning after learning Mike’s history
Could you explain? It’s been a long time since i watched this series😅
@ Mike’s arc pre-BCS revolves around being a crooked cop in the service of other crooked cops that would never truly face justice for the awful things they did. It’s why he killed Hoffman and Fenske after they murdered his son instead of trying to out them
It would make sense a man like that would have a bit of reservations about the judicial system
@@the_doug_digital what do you mean instead of trying to “out” them?
@ since it was other cops that were breaking the law, and he knew how messed up the system was (and because their cover story was decent), he couldn’t just turn them in to other authorities. That combined with a desire for revenge led him to kill them
Saul the entire time: 😁
Mike the entire time: 😒
Him, Nacho and Bolsa are probably some of the most serious, keep a straight face characters.

Why is Saul smiling? He spends most of this compilation furious
🗿 is more accurate
Better Call Saul really showed why they have this sort of rivalry in BB. They never became friends, more like professional acquaintances at best
And because Mike doesn't actually like Saul. He had sympathy for Jimmy, but ever since he completely hid behind his falsehood, there is no respect left.
Jimmy and Mike were friends, Saul and Mike were not
I think a lot of it was because of what they did to Howard. Mike couldn't respect that.
They were friends before Bagman
@@Mediadosthough in BB we see him at the bar, raising his glass while watching Saul's commercial about his class action suit following the plane crash.
4:38 This is where Mike Erhmantraut becomes Finger bravo Vince
I watched bcs after the memes and seeing this scene made me chuckle.
lmaoo
i love this joke so much
The conversation at 8:00 is my favorite. It helped me cope with a recent break-up I went through and it helped me realize I hadn’t thought about my ex in a while and I realized I was over it. That’s the exact moment I became Heisenberg
''muh breakup'' Simp
@@EngineerMikey5Heisenberg aint no simp, you farthead!
@@EngineerMikey5 angry vlrgin detected!
It's a shame Jimmy doesn't show him more appreciation here. I genuinely think it's because around 10:20 the stuff Mike is telling him makes him realize Chuck was right about Jimmy's inclinations and the line of business it lead him toward..
@@DoomKid Your gf or wife is cheating on you
I like how Mike’s “you can forget” speech sounds like something straight out of those support group meetings he went to with Stacey.
Yes, it's similar to Stacey's speech, admitting that she haven't thought about Matt for an entire morning (which made Mike angry at first)
The best lawyer and private investigator duo in Albuquerque, New Mexico
south of mississippi
North of the Mexican border
And ultimately, Mike not trusting Saul with his money was the beginning of his downfall. :(
not like Mike didn't trust him,.he wanted a safer way because the police were already onto Saul and he knew sooner or later he'll either have to fly away or will get caught that's why he went with a nobody.
He was too proud to admit he needed someone to have his back like that immediately. Like when he went to that other lawyer believing he planned it out right. Probably what got him killed in the end if he hadn’t had that encounter with Walter.
Every time someone doubts Saul it goes bad for them.
@Guar_dian facts mike pride got him killed just like walter
Yoru ❤
Man, when Mike said dont get involved with Walt, it seemed to really irritate him when he did. Instead of irradiated, he got violent. Love both series
Irradiated? That word doesn’t make sense in that context.

This is why I love the breaking bad universe Mike and Jimmy had all of the attributes to be great friends but they never were because in reality that’s not always the case
Same with Walt and Jesse or even Walt and Gale
Like in those buddy cop movies where initially the two protagonists didn't like each other but became friends at the end of the movies, at most Mike and Saul are associates.
they’re complete opposites
@@obscure.reference yeah but there are still scenes where Mike feels sympathetic towards Jimmy for example the time travel talk they had “is there nothing you’d change?”
@@ChicagoScorpion yeah
I love the callback at 8:30 where Mike uses the time when Stacey Ehrmantraut said she woke up, did her morning routine, and didn’t think about her head husband (mikes son) even once. Mike turning that into a teaching moment for Saul is so good
21:33 is such a sincere moment from Jimmy 🥹
"Nobody wants to leave home."
Mike 😢😢
Their dynamic is absolutely perfect.
Mike says probably one of the wisest things you could possibly say in that situation
Jimmy's response is "I cant believe I only have you to talk to"
Honestly I feel like this was somewhat of a turning point with me on Jimmy
Well, for some people, they can take comfort in that fact. For others, probably me, that wouldn't help with the current situation of having to bear the pain.
@@FranciumBoronit is the truth, idk what he expected him to say….. Mike is a hardened enforcer for the cartel, before that he was a cop. He’s dealt in death and lived through and seen so much, too much.
@@Notimportant3737 Yeah, I know. It’s just that some folk could handle it better than others.
from mikes expression i think he's more understanding of that than angry, considering he doesn't really have anyone to talk to either
Its not that wise and is very separated from the human emotion which is what Saul wants. Thats why they arent friends, they are in dire opposition to how they view emotions being brought into the equation. Mike is somber, silent, and doesnt let anything affect his actions. Jimmy is bombastic, emotional, and is driven by his emotions which is where the jokes and deflection come from. They agree in a lot of ways but Jimmy wants answers and Mike wants secrets.
Role of his life. Odenkirk was born for that
He did say in an interview that the role was totally in his wheelhouse.

Pretty nice detail how at the beginning you think he owns the white car we see in Breaking Bad, but then the camera moves to the left, revealing his yellow car. Again a great example of foreshadowing and future prediction, the narrative in these two shows is amazing.
That’s in the script for the first episode
It's the first thing I noticed but a lot of people seem to not notice it, specifically all the reaction vids.
As someone who watched BCS first, it was extremely odd to see the way that the parking attendant Saul had beef with became a central character. In retrospect seeing the way they introduce Mike’s voice first without showing his face is EXTREMELY funny
Why did you watch bcs first ?
no one pulls up to a ticket line and waits 3 seconds then starts honking this happened multiple times when jimmy got in line
You’re telling me things on TV aren’t exactly like real life? You really think show runners would do such a thing??
@@j.c.jeggis1818 it just helps to pull you into the story when things are realistic, and reminds you that you’re watching a TV show when they’re not
I just realized at 8:45 - Mike's monologue is foreshadowing Saul's quote when Howard gets killed and Mike had to clean it up
How so?
Saul says the same thing to Kim after Howard dies
no, saul’s quote after howard’s death is a callback to when mike said it to him 😭 saul copied mike bar for bar
It's not foreshadowing though, just Saul uses the same speech because Mike's words stuck
They're like Spock and McCoy in the evil mirror universe
4:37 He said it
4:35 bravo vince
vrabo bince
At 11:40 there's two guys in the background skateboarding. Idk if it was done intentionally, but they remind me of the two skateboarders that got they're legs broken in season 1.
Bravo Vince
It was probably a reference to there conversation about choices putting you on a road, as him using them on abuelita is basically what started everything
No lmao they're just skateboarders
@@Sfcfan120 possible but everything in this show is very intentional
their*
see that easter egg in the form of a white cadillac
so incredibly deep
and when you look even closer you can see that Saul is actually named Jimmy
love the little touch of gus pulling the basket out of the trash
I love how Fring, when reaching in the bin, which is COVERED in ketchup and mustard, gets NONE on his shirt.
Thanks to Bob Odenkirk for recommending Vince Gilligan and the rest of the fantastic writers to Jonathan Banks. Saul was originally going to appear after Jane's death.
Mike knows he’s entrenched in the game but doesn’t let it bother him or else he’d be a nervous wreck.
😩
I don't understand how Saul was allowed to drive that environmental disaster without being caught.
He got a murdering cartel warlord out on bail for 7 million and you're worried about a beat up car.
so early it aint even high res
And there is no sound.
This is the moment ‘Mike Ehrmantraut Vs Saul Goodman | Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul’ Became 144p
Who or what cares man toughen up
@@JosephFarrier-c8q bout 18 people cared, go play with the other sad kids that don't let people have their nice things
the ultimate lawyer and cop love/hate relationship lmao
despite him always keeping the same face on, mike did look a little more sadder in the "here's what's gonna happen" clip lol
when you realize Gus wore gloves to keep fingerprints off his watch.
reach, you should always have gloves when doing janitorial tasks bc of basic hygiene
*Vravo Bince*
!ecniV ovarB
What about the part in breaking bad when he refilled hanks drink leaving finger prints on it, i don’t think Gus was that worried
No as a restaurant owner/worker, it is well know to wear gloves or keep your hand cleans when dealing with trash
Every one of these scenes, Mike says in one way or another for Jimmy to move on. At any point if Jimmy actually listened to that man for a second, literally nothing moving forward would be possible.
This entire story is a lit fuse and Jimmy constantly keeps it from getting snuffed out.
As he says in the end "Walter White couldn't have done it without me" We basically got the frame story to Breaking Bad.
I love 1 minute ads on these clips!!! so good!!
“i can’t believe there’s like over a billion people on this planet, and the only person i have to talk about this to is you”.
what did jimmy mean by this exactly? is he simply saying he’s alone in this or is he saying mike was no help to him in that conversation?
Yeah, saul/jimmy seemed like he was really tortured with the whole saga. Mike knew how to check his feeling and didn't care to be Sauls therapist about it any longer.
Its a honest expression from Jimmy. Itxs like he is this helpess and the only person he can talk about it is somebody as stoic and serious as Mike. Inmagine you are in a desperate situation and the only person who u can talk to it is not Mike, but somebody with similar personality. We dont get to appreciate that until much later but right now. Whats Mike saying isnt something he wants to hear.
@@MICROKNIGHT3000 That was not wholesome from Jimmy.
Even in the last Breakind Bad episodes when he's down there with Walter waiting for his new life, he can't even open up to Walt about his regrets and just tells some stupid slip'n'fall anecdote. He's a dishonest man who doesn't want to be helped.
Bagman is the best episode this duo have
I really like that although mike hated saul, he at least respected his care for his wife
20:05 tell me again
i paid a lot of money for that story
Saul had a bigger peter but mike could eff better
I don’t remember that episode
Peter tingle. XD
😮
“Here’s what’s gonna happen, you’re gonna Mike my Ehrmantraut while I Saul your Goodman”
-Finger
23:41 I love how Saul later described this moment to Walt: *He said he was going to break my legs. And don't tell me he didn't mean it, okay? 'Cause he gave me the dead mackerel eyes. He meant it.*
Fckin dead mackerel eyes 🤣
Such great chemistry between these two actors. Overall, I think Better Call Saul is a better series. In Breaking Bad, Marie, Skyler and Hank always irritated me. Walter White never truly appealed to me and Jessie was the only character with ‘heart’. Awesome compilation and editing job
Jessy was the worst, made that show horrid
24:15 very, very clever. He gave Jessie‘s fake whereabouts not too early as it would be suspicious not too late as he would need a handicap sticker just right.
Jimmy McGill: I can't believe there's, like, over a billion people on this planet, and the only person I have to talk about this to is you. 😂
9:20 all in the game yo!
I got the shotgun, u got da briefcase...
7:29 there's some resentment in Mike in saying that
11:40 check the far-right background. look familiar? :)
How did you catch that cool Easter egg! Nice!
@@ramoneescobedo5820 I believe i was drunk at the time and the movement just caught my eye. i honestly don't remember this comment 😝
@@ramoneescobedo5820 Those were the two brothers???
You think mike and saul would have a better relationship by the time breaking bad came atound
11:29 i hate saul for this.
Why? I'm sure Jimmy knows Mike is trying to help him but look how different they are in terms of processing things. In fairness an assassin for a cartel boss isn't exactly great therapy
That's why Jimmy specifically asked how long it will take someone like him to process it. Mike's is already over it. It was still good advice Mike gave him but I'm sure that's the end of Mike talking to him about it.
Can you imagine calling Mike at midnight and being like "hey this is messing with me"? At best you'd hear "get over it..click" lol. Yet Mike waged a war when a civilian was killed after something he did
I don't really understand why Mike continued to work with Saul throughout BB. He had a cushy role in Gus' organization and didn't really need these side jobs that Saul calls him for
He was keeping taps on him for Gus.
In hindsight after Walter killed, Mike Saul should’ve left and fled
I want to live in a world where breaking bad came after so we can keep having these scenes
Dont do criminal stuff, don't be in the game. You are hunted and you will be killed. And you know it.
Even though Mike was a killer he wasn’t always that way before. He’s a man of substance who loved and cared for his family. Saul/Jimmy showed that his whole life was about money. As he proved out in the desert with the conversation with Mike at the water well. He became full Saul after Kim left and there was no turning back.
8:40 I love this part it’s so good!
The actor who plays Saul would be perfect for Hades in Disney's Hercules.
1:55 The guy playing Mike's reflection is absolutely spot on!
19:47 Gus tried to play it as a courtesy to clean the watch but I think he wanted to confirm if it was actually loose or not since it was an odd situation to say the least
I think at 24:10 Mike snapped standing up because Saul was all "I couldn't live with myself if I told you," and he's thinking "Just like ya did with Howard?" He knew that was a crock
that car scene was so real.
11:40 the two skater on the bakcground lmao😭
Should have labeled the first encounter as "First Encounter of an Old Kind".
6:00 i don't know why but this is so funny coming from Mike
"I have to return some videotapes"
Proceeds to feed a cat to an ATM
Stimmy McGriddle vs Mike Ock
Jimmy and Mike dynamic in BB doesn’t make much sense after BCS - feels very inconsistent, here and when they were in the desert, they seem like allies, in BB, it’s like they barely even knew of each other.
Mike threatening to kill Jimmy in 3x13 doesnt work either.
I know some will say “oh, it’s because of what Jimmy did to Howard”, but idk. It wasn’t like Jimmy and Kim shot and killed Howard themselves, still horrible what they did. But yea.
9:18 they were in the game
The scene in Saul’s office doesn’t work as well after seeing the relationship they developed in Better Call Saul, I don’t think Mike would beat Saul like that at that time
I know what mean. But thats the point. Jimmy knows Mike is fully capable and is fking serious. Even if Mike pretends he will fall for that bluff he has no choice lol. It can be bluffing or not and it wouldnt matter.
7:04 the guy was an interior decorator!!!
Dude killed 16 Czechoslovakians!
they worked great together
21:00 this car doesn't have an ejection seat, does it? 😂😂😂 Nice reference
24:12 was the exact time Jimmy McGill became an 8th grade hall monitor
Man Jimmy's car looks like the LODs aren't loading properly
7:03 Sopranos pine barrens episode reference
I disagree: That speech from Mike in the car was amazing. Jimmy was LUCKY to be able to talk to mike about it.
As much as Jimmy and Mike fight each other, I love how when it comes to LAW. Mike knows to let Jimmy do all the talking. Mike knows Jimmy knows the law, and Mike out of his element.
11:39 is the exact moment where 2 skaters clart a fire hydrant while Mike drives away
08:52 thats the moment where he forgot
Nacho is not Cho man, never caught that
Hardened criminal takes parking rules very seriously.
I love the sarcasm. The German word schadenfreude. love it. LoL
Phil Mitchell vs Ian Beale vibes here
Mike is a Runin, like he was once a Samurai
thats pretty sad they had to do like 4 jump cuts for him to do one takedown lmao makes it feel so hard to believe
Mike was ready to kill Lalo if he meant harm to Jimmy or kim and take entire cartel against Gus. That bond was real.
These two made the best scenes in breaking bad and better call saul even better than walt and jesse and fring and lalo ..........
22:37 after all that and hearing Mike call Jimmy "Saul" feels very weird
lol 3:42 boy seriously tried to bully Mike Ehrmantraut
NEVER TRY TO POKE A VETERAN!
So basically Mike is the old lady monster from Monster's Inc?
I like the "splendid" bit
4:37
If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?
I don't get it either. Why couldn't he simply say he hired Mike for protection? He's used Mike for PI work in the past. I don't see how it tips Gus's hand in any way
Didnt Lalo know Mike was involved with Gus Fring because of the building project thing? Also i dunno if Lalo would like Jimmy bringing in more people who know about the whole operation
@@bloemkoolendestreetgang450 Pretty sure he did know Mike normally works for Gus but he also used to do jobs for Jimmy and worked in the courthouse garage so Jimmy definitely could have explained it without it being because of Gus
And yeah Lalo might not have liked it but it seems hard to argue when transporting 7 million and a bunch of guys try to kill you. The protection was definitely needed
It's not a great situation either way but lying to Lalo certainly turned out worse. Plus how'd those guys even know Jimmy would be there? Seems like it would have gotten out they all were taken out
I guess it just goes to show why it's never a good idea to get involved with the cartel
24:10 When I first watched this scene, I hated Saul for just giving Jessie up that quickly because I thought that he'd "protect" them even if just a little bit.
I was so hyped when we find out later that he just played Mike like a fiddle here lmfao :DD
Mike never stood a chance
