      Saul is in Nebraska... not Omaha.
      S5:15. Saul asks Vacuum guy, "what's in Nebraska?"
      He says: " from now on, you."
      So I highly doubt he drives across state to work at a Cinnabun.

    • @Jeramithehuman
      @Jeramithehuman 4 роки тому

      PlaystationPlayer0813 exactly my point. You already know the outcome. That’s why the show has been so successful. If you didn’t know the outcome call Saul is good but not great. If there were no backstory to this backstory I don’t think this show would have made it past 3 seasons. Let’s not kid ourselves here the first 2 seasons were hard to watch at such a slow pace and the reason we’re hooked is because we already know the outcome. Let’s say this show pre dated BB I don’t believe rating would’ve let this show make it to 5 seasons. Like I said Saul is good not great because of bb. If bb never happened this show would have gotten the can in 2 seasons. I think it was getting bad ratings that’s why season 4&5 have stepped up with more of the drug dealing action that made bb such a great show. Nobody is really that interested in just a lawyer show. Now a lawyer show that’s representing cartels and big crime is where the interest is. Look at Ozark for example. Nobody really cares about accounting it’s boring but now add he’s an accountant for a cartel that launders money there’s a show. It’s the same reason why there’s no show about working at the dmv or being a health inspector that’s popular. It’s just not that interesting without the murder and drugs. It’s like watching porn but everything is blurred out and there’s no sound... nobody would watch that
