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 really lives up to saying: "Fear the old man in a profession where men die young."
I’ve never heard that quote but now I’m going to start saying it
Yep. He did.
Absolutely
@@cody_janssen831 In what context lol
There's always this embarrassing comment in every Mike video
I want a Mike prequel where he's in his 20''s. With a giant black afro, you know, to make him appear younger.
Don’t forget the giant beard/biker type moustache, again, to appear younger.
I want full “always sunny” style prequel of mike (where literally all they do to make Danny DeVito appear younger they just give him a bad wig) it would be amazing XD
We already have a Mike prequel. It's called Gremlins.
Well said, I want a prequel giving the background of Gus.
See 48 hours Movie with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy
No quirky one liners
No childish outbursts
No stupid evil motives
Just a man to be feared
I love Mike
Yep everything you have said here is Mike in a nutshell.
That guy ran was smart and funny
in what kind of way do you love me?
@@MR_Ehrmantraut As in that Mike Ehrmantraut is my favorite character
He is the calm before the storm
“Everyone sounds like Meryl Streep with a gun to their head.”
- *Mike Ehrmantraut*
“Everyone sounds like a girl with a gun to their head.” - *Mike Ehrmantraut*
One of Mike Ehrmantraut's most memorable quotes: “I’ve known good criminals and bad cops. Bad priests, honorable thieves… You can be on one side of the law or the other. But if you make a deal with somebody, you keep your word. You can go home today with your money and never do this again. But you took something that wasn’t yours. And you sold it for a profit. You’re now a criminal. Good one, bad one? That’s up to you.”
@@rigursos7520
My fave is his Half Measures speech “……And we just stood there for a while, me acting like I’m thinking things over, and Prince Charming kneeling in the dirt with shit in his pants……”
"Everyone sounds like Meryl....."
Except Christopher Walken with a gun in his head, again and again. With his own hand. Savvy?
@@miket9563 I'm
I like how tuco knew what Mike was doing at the end and still obliged him with a punch. Almost like, "respect, old man." *BONK*
I thought that scene was a little bit too Hollywood and not really working. It built on Mike being fast enough to take away Tuccos gun. A guy who was a psychotic ultraagressive killer murdering at first possibility. No one would plan it like that.
@@listrahtes even Tuco would not be dumb enough to openly kill someone in public place in broad daylight
One of my favourite scenes in BCS.
@@vanjazed7021 @Vanjazed really, you count on a psychotic cartell killer not wanting to kill in daylight :-) doesnt fit at all with Tuccos previous built character. And he tried to shoot him.!! But it made for a good scene.
@@listrahtes Tuco didn't even kill the 2 scammer skater guy in his own house, shit, not even in the desert. He also didn't kill jesse in his own territory when jesse brought him meth. He didn't kill Walt either. And all of these people fucked with tuco. That is enough proof that while Tuco is a psycho, he doesn't kill everyone he gets pissed off by
And to think that this character was created by accident. The behind-the-scenes story goes that Saul was originally supposed to be the Cleaner when Jane died in BB. But Odenkirk was unavailable due to a scheduling conflict. So Vince Gilligan and the writers created Mike out of simple necessity. And getting Jonathan Banks to play the character was pure genius.
Is the story true?
@@beorf4910 yes it was supposed to be Saul, the director said that on a interview
@@beorf4910 Yes he was filming HIMYM
Vravo Bince
The actor is great, but is too old to be believable for the skills the character has.
Just put every single scene of Mike and we're good.
Apart from that scene with Hank
And him getting shot
And add the bit from Airplane! when he played the Amana Radar Range operator in the control tower. “You got about two more minutes, Chief.”
@@yoewenton8582 what scene are you talking about ? my goofy ahh blanking
@@Mannnnnnnn even went down like a badass
Boss: "Go to Mike Ehrmantraut's house and scare him"
Henchmen: *nervous sweating* "Okay."
If you wanna scare someone why not just put a fire cracker in there toaster.
And sent them a post card the next day
One keeps an eye on the target the other smuggels a fire cracker in there toaster.
For if you can hide a fire cracker you can hide a more potent bomb.
@@rambo8863 this is excellent advice. Filed away for future reference.
I love the scene where he disarms Steven Ogg (Trevor’s VA), it’s not only a clean disarm but the guy running away straight faced and silent is hilarious and the smartest background character we’ve ever seen in BB and BCS history
I have not seen better call saul but I was thinking that the guy did look like Trevor's VA. Thanks for confirming it for me!
You mean Steven Ogg 🤨? He has a name too.
Steven Ogg isn't just Trevor's VA. He is the **actor** for Trevor as well.
@@Shadyinternetman Trevor would have eaten that gun and spat back bullets
He also played Simon on TWD
Mike deserves his own spin-off show, I have a suggestion for a name as well: *"Don't doubt Ehrmantraut"*
Thats what bcs is
"We like Mike"
He died
@@RichDreamz87 Pants. They are not meant to be worn on the head.
Banks was old as dirt and arthritic in BB, and could hardly walk normally in BCS.
"Just because you shot Jesse James, don't make you Jesse James. " - Mike Ehrmantraut, BB
I love how the big guy just runs away after he had seen what Mike is capable of. Fuck this, grandpa will not kill me here.
Always beware of the old man in a profession where men usually die young
Missed learning opportunity
That was just for laughs. He should have hung in there, the big pistol was sized for him.
@@bryanc4054 Yes yes. We know already. You and a million others think you're clever for commenting this.
Doofus Magoofus! I wish he had more lines, more screen time. But he did run away in a comical fashion
I wish Mike had been given his own show. He was the most interesting character of BB and BCS.
He was basically the co-lead in BCS along with Jimm and Kim. There are many episodes which focuses solely on him
Bruh BCS is basically that. He shares the lead spot with Saul.
Let's make 75 years old Jonathan Banks play as 25 years old Mike
@@TheRegenerator I’m pretty sure they meant a new actor
@@czechmix221 Yh that would make sense, but on the other hand ppl would conplain on how its not the same anymore. There is no room to go back in time in this universe, if there will be another serie, it will pribably take place in the present time.
The narrative arc of the show is basically "Better Call Mike" outsmarting everyone. Frighteningly realistic character, and one of the best ever written.
I don't know about realistic. It's a great character but the idea of this 75-year-old man beating everybody up is extremely ridiculous. If he punched you he'd probably break his hand and forearm, have a heart attack, fall over and shatter his pelvis, then shit himself
@@delta-9969 old people cant be fit ever apparently
@@delta-9969 Well technically the character is in his sixties
@@delta-9969 my grandfather is 72, he doesn't look much older than 50 and can (and will) still throw hands better than alot of men half his age. 🤷♂️
@@delta-9969 tell that to an old boxer. lots of old guys can still pack a wallop.
I seriously mean this: Every single time I see Mike I am happy and get goosebumps because it's going to be a badass scene. Praise the actor
And every time I see Tuco appear I'm immediately on edge..
Sounds like you have a crush
The desert sniper shootout car flipping Jimmy dehydrated Mike saving the day scene has been etched in my memory forever. It's now one of those scenes that pops into my head first when I think of Mike
Nothing tops Mikes most badass moment “riding in the security cart around Madrigal”
For me it's the job application at the car park, closely followed by his grimace at having his ear shot off in the Pollos delivery truck scene
This first few words of this comment gave me a stroke
That texts is a talk to mike by Jimmy after Jimmy realized what he done early with Mike after the a bag of money they got from that family that supposed embezzlement
Nothing more realistic than a rifle causing a truck to start flipping
Kaylee: Tell me a story Pop Pop!
Mike: Well alright. *I used to be a beat cop...*
Holy
The moral of the story is never take half measure
LOL
"I chose a half measure, when I should have gone all the way. I'll never make that mistake again."
"You're silly, pop pop."
pop corners ?
I always liked the intricate detail to his behaviour and how we were shown it in minute and lengthy detail and it was never boring. Any other show would just tell you “Mike found a tracker in his car” but instead we watch him take his car apart piece by piece because he knows it’s there and it shows us how good he is at what he does and why he’s so good at what he does. He does the arduous stuff and that’s why he’s a badass.
This is genius because if you paid attention to what's going on, you go: "Oh He's now looking for it! I knew there was something there!"
And if you are a little more obtuse, like me, it's a nice build up for a revelation that's gonna make everything make sense at the end
@@Qvartz_Lite I love those scenes where the characters aren’t saying anything but just doing something to achieve a goal but we haven’t been told what that goal is yet. It’s cool trying to figure it out
Nice new English word ‘arduous’ . Thanks 😂
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think Mike has the highest number of appearance and screen time in the entire Breaking Bad universe which makes him the real protagonist of the saga.
pretty sure jimmy/saul has more but i could be wrong
@@tommygreenyt Saul barely appeared in Breaking Bad. There are so many Mike-centric episodes that Saul was totally absent (for example, Mike’s first appearance in S2 finale because Odenkirk was busy with HIMYM or an episode that Todd killed a kid) while in Better Call Saul, Mike was only absent in “Chicanery” and in episode “Five-O”, Saul only appeared for 8 minutes while the rest belongs to Mike.
Or to make it simpler, we already know about Mike’s personal life by just watching Breaking Bad. We know nothing about Saul Goodman, not until we watch Better Call Saul.
@@nont18411 mike did not get that much screen time in breaking bad. he got like 2 scenes in S2 a decent bit in 3 and 4 and a good amount in 5a . saul got decent screen time in S2/3/4 he was a bit absent from 5a but he atleast had screentime in 5b . in BCS both mike and saul have a lot of screentime but in majority of the episodes saul has way more screentime than mike. the only season where mike may have more screentime than saul in BCS is season 3 .
Walt, Jesse, Jimmy and Mike are the main protagonists of the saga. Hank and Skyler can also be considered as protagonists
@@amanms1999 Hank and Skyler are more like main characters.
Walt is Breaking Bad protagonist.
Jesse is El Camino protagonist.
Jimmy is Better Call Saul protagonist,
Mike is Breaking Bad universe protagonist.
Mike is one of the *best* characters of any series, period. And to think that he was originally created as a replacement of Saul in a scene because Bob Odenkirk was too busy to film...
When Cinco has needs, Bob answers.
Oh yeah he helped Jessie clean up after the unfortunate Overdose incident
Something i love about these badass mike scenes is Banks' body language. He's not like this magically strong little old man, you can tell that he's putting effort into it but he's also precise. He hits with just the right amount of force, at the right moment and in exactly the right spot. That's how he does everything, even how he walks. It's fascinating to watch him do pretty much anything. I noticed this in Breaking Bad in his very first scene at Jesse's house.
I love the one where he plants drugs on Hector's truck with his genius brain!
I cant believe he made that shot.
@@JESUSLIVESAMEN its heavily implied that he's an ex Marine Corps sniper and served in Vietnam
@@liamcollins9183 I believe hes spec ops. That shot is still exceptionally difficult.
@@JESUSLIVESAMEN yeah possibly. I mainly based the assumption off the scene with Mike discussing different rifles with the gun dealer, where Mike is very familiar with the fibreglass A1 variant of the M40, the original wooden stocked version of which was standard issue for USMC snipers in Vietnam, and Mike also commenting they should have made the switch from wood to fibreglass before sending it into the jungle.
yeah it was cool but it definitely wouldn’t have worked. you can literally see how, in the shot of the shoes after the truck leaves, the cocaine blows away and scatters. theres no way it would have landed on the truck, let enough stick to it for the remainder of the drive to the checkpoint.
I think people don't give enough credit to how smart and creative Mike is.He is not a book smart by any means but he always do his research on his duties, has plans, well composed and very creative when it comes to set traps or track someone.He is literally a believable Macgyver
No. How to work all that surveillance equipment is written in books. Also, Snipers are good at math.
I'd say he's fairly book smart.
Unless one have some form of tactical training, because then most scenes are full of tactical and/or weapons handling mistakes. Still I like the character.
@@oloflarsson407 Its hard to suspend disbelief when you know something of a subject. I facepalm about the security aspects of these shows specifically. The corporate security stuff makes an attempt at pass ability, but they still get things wrong. Oh well, respect for the attempt, right?
Easy there bug man. I don’t think you realize that it’s just a character created by writers, he’s not a man, he doesn’t plan out anything. Stop trying to analyze a fictional character, it’s even worse that you think others don’t give a fictional character credit enough LOL at least have the self-awareness to complement the writers for writing a good character, you are literally worshiping a figment of somebody else’s imagination
In the episode with the crooked cops Mike doesn’t have perfect aim, which is a nice detail in my opinion. It adds a sense of realism. Even the experienced crook isn’t superhuman in a way. I like the thoroughness in this show.
I can't say for sure but I think the handgun mike is using is a snub nose .38 , which are notorious for inaccuracy . Even if he had perfect aim he is still Lucky to hit at that range , which in a way makes me respect the writing more , at least they don't do dumb things like having him make a 100 yd shot without aiming
He's also using a poor stance and handling the gun with one hand (presumably for intimidation) so it makes sense that he'd be aiming poorly
This professional, skilled guy, got killed by a underpaid egoistic chemist teacher.
In no other show this would happen. BB and BCS are the best 2 series hands-down.
Omar comin'!
if how fictional characters death are written and shot is enough to tell about the quality of a show, BB and BCS are GREAT ones, but the winner will always be HBO's Oz, and The Wire aint far
I don't care what anyone says, there's no better scene than when Mike avenges his son.
Yeah i agree
Seriously! I watched and rewatched that scene cause of how incredibly smart it is. All that human manipulation and it worked flawlessly (well almost, he did get shot)
@@rich925cal1, I believe that a man like Mike, in the real world, would just have taken two headshots and not spoken at all. Mike always does the sensible thing, giving them a moment to shoot at him was definitely not sensible.
@@leehaelters6182 "Mike always does the sensible thing" when he has no personal stake in it. He wasn't there to kill those men. He was there to make sure they knew they couldn't get away with killing his son.
@@alphanerd7221, I don't think he had plans to take them in and make accusations.
Mike is the embodiment of the saying "beware of a poopoo in a urinal where a peepee would suffice."
The scene in Madrigal when giving security directives is quite badass too haha.
2:52 smartest man in cinematic history
The amount of people Mike killed or out smarted. And he was killed by a Chemistry teacher
Science, bitch!
He underestimated the chemistry teacher
Maybe He was so fed up with WW he didn't want to live anymore, down there.
Well it's the same chemistry teacher who took out Gus Fringe
The way he says "Yeah yeah yeah, a guy like you" is just such a perfect read on that line
These are pretty good, but lacking some scenes:
1. How he figures out where the Kettlemans have stashed the money.
2. The other scene where he sabotages the Salamanca truck shipment by shooting at the shoe containing a bag of cocaine
3. How he evades Lalo by sticking gum at the gate's electronic system. He starts chewing pretty early, which means he's already decided what he's going to do.
It's not cocaine in the sneaker., but doesn't have to be. I think there's a scene before where he buys some pills from his vet buddy. All Mike is trying to do is set the sniffer dogs at the boarder off. The smell could be anything 'druggy'. So long as it's a drug like smell in a place where druggy smells shouldn't be, like on the metal step at the back of a truck. Once the dogs showed interest, the Boarder cops would investigate fuller and that's the mission objective.
Kettleman scene gets a reliable copyrights strike here. I've seen video of mike planting the money in toy truck, I've seen video of mike retrieving money from under the sink, but never the middle part.
One of my favorite characters for sure. And to think it was Walt that took him out, for no good realizing moments after he could have gotten the list elsewhere.
At least he obeyed his last request. “Shut the fuck up and let me die in peace”.
Walt planned to kill Mike because he knew Mike wouldn't stand-by and let his guys get killed, regardless of where he got the list.
That last clip was great. The way he takes a deep breath to settle himself before the second shot. Such a great show.
I still can’t get over how good Bagman was…
I love how Mike is killed by a chemistry teacher while he couldn’t be taken down by the best of assassins or the cartel
Mike is the best written character in any show ever
He's like third or fourth best written in BCS.
I like him the most too, he knows what he's doing, not being hypocritical by any means, he's honest and takes care of the people who are important to him in a way
@ParkEnder18.....some will disagree with you. I was watching a compilation of badass scenes of Beth Dutton (Yellowstone) last night - and
many commenters were saying that HER parts were the best written in any show ever......how can you both be right ?
While I agree that the stuff written for this show AND Yellowstone have both been very good - why do you think it is
necessary to go out on a limb - and make yourself look foolish for no reason ? Why not just shut your mouth and enjoy the show ?
I'm afraid I don't trust you, Walter. So here's what's going to happen: You and me are going to sit right here all night. Like it's my birthday.
Lyle is the best character in the BB universe, Hands down
How could all this exist without Mike?!?
This character is incredible.
Love how when Mike executes a plan, they set it all up with all the pieces, and you're just like "what the fuck is he doing!?" Then the payoff comes and it's "That was fucking amazing. How did I not see that coming!?"
Walking into Hector's restaurant and threatening him in front of the twins unless he got $50,000
At 7:46 Mike walk on the tire track to mask his shoes impression
Having the Trevor Philips actor combined with Pryce being a straight GTA character in a single scene just gives me overwhelming GTA 5 vibes.
lmao it‘s trevor didn‘t notice it until your comment
My favourite character from both series. Smart and badass but with a sense of honour.
Exactly he is badass enough to even disarm Trevor for from gta 5 lol
Mike is one of my favorite characters from BB and BCS. Under neath his badass persona, he’s genuinely a nice caring guy who wants the best for everyone. But he’s seen and gone through so much that it made him into a different person and must maintain his badass persona to no be seen as weak.
The guy who ran away from Mike after the gun-taking was the smartest character on the show
I rented all of Better Call Saul from the library up to season 5 .It’s a very cool series.Can’t wait to see the rest
Mike’s scenes don’t require a lot of context, he’s not a complicated man, he’s a simple man. Anyone whom he kills is the bad guy.
That german builder wasn't a bad guy...
@@TheRedCreeperTRC not before Mike killed him, afterwards though.....
"Mike's most badass moments"
Uploads every scene with Mike in it
2:17 a guy that looks like Lester watching as the guy who voices Trevor almost got murdered by a guy named Mike
Finguh
I love how Mike can be badass even when he's being beaten up
That garage scene may very well be one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen. Gawd I love Mike 😊❤️
I know some people might think enough is enough after Better Call Saul but I'd love a Mike Ehrmantraut Origin series - like how he became such as badass.
True
1:22 Mike's badass most moments 😍
Loved it when Mike took down Trevor Phillips to impress Colin Robinson
Funny how that guy with the with the guy with the glasses looks like Lester lol!
Mike will always remain my favorite character of the entire saga (BrBa, BCS, and El Camino).
Finger is so cool
Mike is the kind of grandpa with a very strong grip on your arm.
4:48 i love the attention to the little detail of when Better Call Saul was happening; Billy Mays is on the tv as if to say "cause see, it was the early 2000s"
What no love for his low-key badassery of getting a cover job as head of security, and spending the day doing his job, making sure everybody knows who he is?
The way Mike says "...guy like you..". Humiliating! Funny stuff!🤣
For a character who reminded me a LOT of Mike, see the criminally underrated masterpiece film The Way of the Gun. James Caan plays Joe Sarno. He and Mike are one and the same.
I love the opening scene of that movie...
2:22
Mike Ehrmantraut : "hayeahaehah for a guy like you"
Fun Fact: Jonathan Banks (Mike) is only 14 years older than Raymond Cruz (Tuco)
I love Mike's special ability of Teleporting behind enemies.
I love the scene in S3E1 where he takes apart an entire car to an awesome song.
He is the reason why I'm watching this show. Love you mike
That was a great video! No click bate, straight to the content and no commentary! Perfect
Hits the driver with a sniped shot, blows up the car. THAT is how good Mike is.
He didn't want the car to blow up. It was his ride out
the "that is just special" line always gets me hahahaa
Totally gives me GTA vibes of the trailer guy character.
Nacho's the only guy that could throw keys like that to Tuco and not die horribly
if hes like that at the age of 60 imagine how good wouldve been young Mike
Less good.
He's better older because he has maxed out his wisdom XP.
Age is what made him gooder.
Like this but able to march for 10 hours through the rain without rest.
Love the scene in which mike takes the gun from
The big guy .
Absolutely Brilliant 👍
One of the best characters in a shows universe
4:05 best action director nominee over here. Hiding outside the frame...
MiKe ReAlLy LiVeS uP tO sAyInG: "FeAr ThE oLd MaN iN a PrOfEsSiOn WhErE mEn DiE yOuNg."
This guy definitely deserves his own spin off prequel show.
the scene when mike started aiming using the scope was the best cinematography i've ever scene
Finally a sniper scene where the vieuw through the scope is correct. First contact with car, approx 1000 meters, second, approx 500, last, about 250 meters. Shooters amongst you can do the math too.
So glad the character got more backstory.
Now, I cannot take serious of Sal being a defenceless guy on this case after watching the movie called "Nobody" 🤣
1:29 Trevor?
Yes
Steven OGG
Da hell Trevor is doing here?! 1:41
Great clip! Some of my best all in one place!
absolute legend
no one could have played it better than jonathan
6:33 is a badass moment!
I really like how Mike misses his first Sniper shot at the car, but it’s not done to be a long drawn out dramatic thing. We all know he’s going to make the shot, he just missed the first one 🤷♂️ perfect realism ❤️
Outstanding
In the first one with Tuco, it would have been even better if Mike ducked for that final punch and Tuco would have broken his hand punching the pillar Mike was standing in front of.
With all of Mike's experience, it's weird seeing his death pretty plain and simple.
*Like Werner's.....*
Something something old man alive in a job where men die young
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Something Bravo Something Vince
I know this is heresy and all, but between these two excellent shows, I prefer "Better Call Saul" for one reason: we get more Jonathan Banks!
1:55 that guy looks like Trevor from GTA
That is the actor that does Trevor's voice
Mike is a legendary bad ass. Love his character and the way he handled Werner. He felt bad for the guy, but at the end of the day, Mike makes a commitment, he's gonna finish it to the T
2:12 love steven oggs performance but this is hilarious
i dont recall most of these.. time for a rewatch
no one was as professional in doing business, investigating, and getting hands dirty better than Mike
Best video ever.
7:13 Revenge is the only dish you should ever serve Cold
This clip is just special
Excellent
