Edit 2: Walt Jr get's 9.7 million, not 900k. My bad lol Edit: I think I should add that I'm also bias (who isn't?) My criteria here is heavily based on the question, 'will there be character development?' if the answer was no, then I was already turned off from the ideas. I respect everyone's opinions, these vids wouldn't be possible without them!
Imo Walt Jr is the most viable choice, the series ends and he has a ton of baggage. Imagine if he grows up trying to emulate Hank and become a DEA agent or detective. The series doesn't really establish how intelligent he is because he just acts like a normal kid aside from the cerebral palsy, but if he is as intelligent as Walt then he could have a super compelling dynamic trying to be taken seriously as a disabled person. Also it keeps the identity motif because like Saul and Heisenberg he calls himself Flynn Lambert (or even Flynn Schrader) but he used to be Walter White. Also he's got like millions of dollars that he probably knows is drug money so that's cool.
The hank thing you mentioned about that kind of racist line. So vince never intended hank to have a charater arc. Everyone mentions the fact jesse was going to die in episode 9 originally but most of breaking bads best charaters were almost not in the shoe. Jesse originally would die season 1. Gus was meant to be a one episode charater. Walt would outgrow saul and mike was a charater created because odenkirk wasn't on set. Hank was just originally a foil to walts masculinity he was a show off tough guy even if he was short he was just kind of intended to be doughy but not evil and the idea of when he called emillio a... yknow. Was hank has been a dea agent for some time that he has seen criminals on the street that are Mexican so its developed not necessarily racism but biases. So to awnser if that was intentional yes it was hank was originally just a douch. Breaking bad had a lot of organic writing and it's not like they accidentally made a good show its just they through trial and error behind the scenes and seeing what works and what doesnt the show runners let things write organically so they realized Aron Paul was to good of an actor to kill in season 2 post writters strikd although arron did almost die on set durring season 2 so that would of been an oopsie. Mike was just sauls private investigator but they saw potential. Gus was just a quick fix for walt durring season 2. Dean Norris played the charater vince intended perfectly vince saw he could do more than that because Dean had a lot more going on seeing he was a more complicated person That's why tucos death was important because for the most part he acts like criminals are humans even if they are evil and even though he may not act like he realizes this he is a charater who emotionally covers up his own pain and problems. Tdlr; yes the emilio line you are talking about was meant to be kind of racist because it was before vince made hank a more complicated charater Breaking bad was a show that had a lot of organic writting seeing what works and what didn't
Minerals would basically be an alternate universe story where, after Uncle Jack’s gang drives away with Jesse as their new slave, Hank is able to rise from the grave because the natural healing crystals in the soil were able to restore Hank’s broken body due to his devotion to minerals. The minerals in the soil use vibrations to help Hank track down Uncle Jack’s compound and avenge Gomez’s death (and rescue Jesse too). Hank charges in, guns blazing, and even uses earth-bending powers. After rescuing Jesse, Hank takes him under his wing and mentors Jesse so he can help solve cases for the DEA, kinda like Frank Abagnale in Catch Me If You Can. Eventually, Jesse moves to Alaska, not because to start over a new life or whatever per se, but because the DEA relocates Jesse there on a secret undercover mission to help bust drug rings up in Alaska. (Considering Alaska’s proximity to Russia, we can even pretend that some Russian mobsters are involved too.)
The Salamanca idea sounds like the best idea for a spin-off because, when you think about it, almost all major plot points go back to that family: Gustavo's revenge arc, Walt breaking into the game through Tuco, The "Twin Reapers" (as I call them) going after Walt and Hank, Lalo's feud with Gus and Saul. The man who gave birth to this family of menaces is Hector Salamanca. Lakota, Tuco, the Twins, it all goes back to Hector. Going back to his start in the drug game, exploring his development, and how he influenced his family could work, if done right. Wouldn't beat Breaking Bad, but I think it would be interesting to see.
Salamanca prequel could definitely work but only if they find the right actors for younger versions of Hector, Lalo, Tuco and the twins, otherwise it would end up feeling like a cheap fanfiction.
I think a Salamanca show would be fantastic. I also think it would very much be like Narcos. Hector should not be in the drug game at the start of the show, neither would his brothers or sister(s) (he obviously had to have siblings for the twins and lalo/tuco to exist). It's the best option to have it be centered around those siblings and for Hector to just be living his life (whatever it was) until his siblings broke bad and then he got involved. He really does love his family and the show really has to nail that point.
I always viewed better Call Saul as also Mike's show. It told us how he got into the business and I think it was exactly what I would have wanted from a Mike show.
the official synopsis for season 1 describes the show as being half about Mike, ironically Mike only has about 2 episodes and a half for himself in season 1, but this ends up being entirely true from season 2 onwards
Ikr? Honestly, I’d be happy enough if Aaron Paul would just post a vlog series of himself, his real wife Lauren, and his real kids up in their Idaho home while they pretend that they’re Jesse Pinkman and his new family. Their Idaho home looks rustic enough to look like it’s in Alaska, especially once winter comes and brings snow around. We can just assume that Jesse goes back and finds Uncle Jack’s money somehow so that he’s filthy rich enough to afford such a spacious mansion. Boom! Happy endings all around. (I wonder if Aaron Paul’s parents would be willing to play Jesse’s parents.)
What I would prefer though is a whole new series (or even mini-series) about Jesse covering various plotlines. First of all, there is obviously the intense psychological turmoil that Jesse has to face within himself. Hopefully, he’ll find someone whom he can trust and open up to so that he will finally heal from all his past trauma. (That actually happens in this Breaking Bad fanfic called The Last Frontier where Jesse goes to a bar in Alaska and meets this redheaded woman who introduces him to everyone around town.) Plus, there can still be drug rings around Alaska. Jesse very likely would never be willing to get involved with them himself but could potentially get caught up with them, especially if there’s a rescue plot involved with one of Jesse’s loved ones. (That happens in this fanfic called Alaska by Liym Enello which is about Jesse falling in love with this blonde woman who gets caught up with the local drug ring, so Jesse has to go rescue her from her kidnappers.) There’s also the matter of Walt Jr or Skyler or even Marie wanting to track down Jesse and get more details about Walt’s and Hank’s deaths so as to get more closure. Jesse’s brother Jake can go potentially track down Jesse since he kinda looks up to him. Finally, I always wondered if Jesse could adopt the redheaded Peekaboo boy out of the foster care system and raise him (or at least marry a woman who’s willing to adopt that boy, if there are too many legal hurdles for Jesse to adopt). Admittedly, this proposed sequel series would likely have a markedly different tone than that of Breaking Bad, but that’s okay. If anything, maybe they can put these ideas into a book, allowing for slower pacing, instead of some action-packed TV series. (Plus, writing a book would be much cheaper and less of a commitment than producing a whole TV series. There would also be zero issues of this or that actor being too old to play this or that character. All you need is a tasteful arrangement of photos of the actors to serve as your character sheet for the reader.)
@@mechadoggy my problem with all the new breaking bad content is everyone looks much older and its a stark contrast between characters in BB and BCS and any new content i feel would have to be wayy in the future or be based on new characters in the same universe even the characters in BCS who were in BB look way different like huell.
@@JustKhari “any new content i feel would have to be wayy in the future” That’s fine. We can follow Jesse’s adventures up in Alaska with the ideas I mentioned in a previous comment. Can you give me your thoughts on them? “my problem… is everyone looks much older” That’s a very valid point. Any new content doesn’t have to be in a TV format though but can exist as a comic/manga, anime, audiobook, regular book, or even a video game. Here’s my proposal for a GTA-style Breaking Bad video game that re-imagines some stuff: Basically, you play as Jesse working for Gus’s meth operation doing missions and working with various possible mentors. Combo, Badger, and Pete can all give you various missions with selling meth or dealing with the street-side in general. (One of them involves tracking down Combo’s killer and avenging his death. Another will be tracking down the couple who robbed Pete, basically the plot to Peekaboo.) As Gus’s head of security, Mike is there to give you security tips, firearms training, and some bounty related missions that can unlock access to different kinds of guns and gun upgrades. On some missions, you and Mike team up together to take down a whole cartel in a certain building as a raid. As one of Gus’s chemists, Gale has you retrieve/steal certain reagents and do other chemistry-related missions as well as being in charge of this organic chemistry simulator mini-game which can unlock access to recipes to crafting certain health items. Gale can also give you research-related missions where you have to steal documents/schematics (or hack some place to get them) so that you don’t just make meth but can expand Gus’s product line to include ecstasy, LSD, heroin, fentanyl, PCP, steroids, or even aphrodisiacs to help maximize Gus’s profits.
I’m hoping we just a deleted scene with all of the Salamancas just interacting. Hector, Lalo, Tuco and the twins just talking. They come from the same background but they are all very different at the same time and that would be a good dynamic
Someone once pitched the idea of a show where Kaylee (mike's granddaughter) and Holly, 25 years later, team up to uncover the truth of what happened to Mike and Walt while working through the resentments they harbor towards their parental figures. Idk how they would carry that premise for more than one season, maybe a 6 episode miniseries in as a creatives' retrospective, but at least it's something.
Sounds pretty interesting, needs a little more I think but it could be cool seeing how people deal with the grief knowing their relatives were pretty shitty people who did awful things for them
I have an idea for a show about that Walter White fellow that Saul worked with. It would show his entrance into the drug world and follow his rise to power and moral descent into villainy up until his death. They could call it Better Halt Walt or something
Remember that précis that Saul gave someone about such a story? What if it turned out that, although we assumed that was Heisenberg, it was someone else entirely who had an even more spectacular history, that Saul knew as well?
Don't you DARE badmouth Better Fuel Huell! This show is modern masterpiece, once in a lifetime piece of art that defines a generation. Decades and centuries from now people in universities will be studying it's subtle and intricate writing and commentary on human condition. This is a classic, yet modern twist on a timeless narrative. A masterclass in both worldbuilding and storytelling.
Better Fuel Huell is truly a masterpiece. Even the worst episode in its ten seasons is essential watching for all cultured people. Like Better Call Saul, it started off slow by showing Huell's origins and meeting Saul and Kuby, but by the end, Huell's revenge on Hank and his bank heist are some of the most heart racing stories ever to cross a TV screen. I haven't finished the finale where he goes to free Saul, because just seeing the first half of the finale made me uncontrollably bust
@@wabc2336Not to mention all the instruction he gives the audience in sleight of hand. You know, that 2 minute segment in every show where he sits and demonstrates how to make things appear and disappear, to go with those official Huell magic kits.
To elaborate on your Salamanca family spin-off idea. Here's my pitch: Three ten episode seasons, each one focuses on a different era of the Salamanca family. Part 1: Rise of the Salamanca Basically the story that you set up in the video. An older man is trying to raise his grandson Hector after he lost his son in the war. Part 2: The Three Dons A season showing us the creation of the cartel and how Eladio,Bolsa and Hector got together. Maybe we get some elaboration on the Santiago incident that Lalo mentioned in S4 and Gustavo Fring's real identity Part 3: Lalo,Tuco and the twins Finally, a story that focuses on the Salamanca family at their peak. We get some fanservice moments like seeing Hector and a younger Lalo burning the hotel. It culminates in the four nephews of Hector single-handedly eliminating a whole rival gang by themselves and gaining their respects: Lalo becomes a don,Tuco gets put in charge of the operation in ABQ and the twins become the cartel's top henchmen. I hope y'all like my dumb ideas lol.
@@AlsoApey hey I like that y'all liked it. I agree that they shouldn't make another spin-off in the BB universe but if they had to the Salamancas are best the characters that Vince and co can build interesting narratives around.
If they did make a show about Walter Jr and Skyler, a good story for Flynn would be him trying to get in the DEA because of how much he looked up to his uncle Hank
A movie (similar to El Camino for Breaking Bad) explaining more of Gus Fring's origins wouldn't be bad. His history with Max, in Chile, getting in to the cartel, losing Max and plotting revenge on Hector Salamanca, the final logistics of the super-lab's creation from Lalo's death to the first time Gus shows Walt the super-lab. That would be an interesting character exploration imo
You can't explore Gus Fring's past too much though without ruining the mysteriousness behind his character. A big reason why Gus Fring is such a good character is because his origins are so enigmatic, a bit like the CSM from the X-Files before they ruined the show.
Another idea could be a documentary about Walter's empire set in the universe explaining the events of breaking bad and better call saul. They would interview people like Flynn, Saul, Skyler, Marie, Huel etc. It would only be 40 minuets- an hour but could still cover up a lot of questions
I highly doubt Walter Jr and Skyler would give an interview. Yknow what I think would happen in universe? I think a ton of people would believe that hank was involved in Walt’s empire. People would see that this notorious drug kingpin had a brother in law in the DEA who never noticed the many coincidences and would start thinking there was something fishy there.
yeah like a special or something, that could be cool. that could also fix the issue of people wanting to know what happened to the whites after walter. another thing that could be neat is maybe like a miniseries with four-ish episodes following walters family right after they gets walters money, or the few months between granite state and felina.
If breaking bad really wanted to go down the Salamanca 100 years ago, it would be a very interesting time, and not even for ww1. This was in the midst of the Mexican revolution, when you had loads of turmoil, conflict and massive personalities like Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata running around. You could definitely do something like "idealistic revolutionary becomes cynical mercenary becomes greedy druglord"
A really bad cartoon where every single episode hank and his rag tag team of friends go on wacky adventures to try and bust the next big bad cartel boss
Honestly I think a sequel show about Walts family would work much better from the perspective of Holly. She never got to meet her father, or see the consequences the consequences of his actions, thus she could be more sympathetic towards the father figure she never got to have, instead blaming her depressive mother. This would mean it makes much more sense for her to enter her fathers trade in some manner (although the drug trade probably doesn’t take too kindly to strong female protagonists). Update if anyone gives a shit: I’ve been thinking about this over the past…. Year (I’m odd) and I think examining a mythologisation of Heisenburg and of greatness of decency would be interesting. Perhaps Hollys husband is just as much of a main character, one who has felt weak, and finds strength through a growing infatuation with the legend of Heisenburg. He may end up becoming so obsessed he has to find out everything he can - he finds Saul or Jesse, he entirely estranges himself and holly from the rest of the White family. Heisenburg represents the will to take control. He and holly are both (in different ways) trying to become Walter, and neither know that this figure they are replicating never really existed. (Also if he were to walk into a hat store in season 2 and then in the last season we saw him unboxing and putting on the HB hat, idk that would just be a cool da service moment)
A Breaking Bad sequel with grown up Holly does possess potential. But i dont want to see her entering the drug trade cause i feel like that would be the exact repeat of Breaking Bad. Maybe she become a detective who try to find out the truth behind her father and maybe somewhere along the way, even teaming up with grown up Brock and find Jesse Pinkman in Alaska or sum
@@johans3164 I mean there’s many routes that it could go, but I don’t think her entering the trade would necessarily repeat BB at anything but the most basic surface level (unless of course you actually did just copy BB)
My exact thought. There's so much thats unknown about his character and he has a way bigger backstory than Saul. The choices he made that lead to path of drug empire , his boyfriend/ partner who was the one who knew more about the drug business than Gus at the time , How Gus himself built a super successful empire, the conflicts he faced prior to better call saul/breaking bad , his chicken business, his upbringing. There's just so much they can do with his character. His character deserves a spin off and I agree they can tie the Salamancas rise into the show as well and have 2 different perspectives. Between Gus and the Salamancas.
If there was a Walter Jr. spin-off, I’d imagine that he would use the money that Walter left him to help his mom out. But the show would begin while he is in adulthood as a DEA Rookie. Inspired by his Uncle Hank and fueled by his hatred for his father, wouldn’t be hard to imagine he also used the money to get through cop college or whatever. An imitation of the Blue Sky meth is back and he is appointed as the Lead Investigator. He’s forced into deep cover and gets intel from people who are still alive from Breaking Bad. Maybe he meets Saul again or characters like Huell, Skinny Pete, Badger, and maybe even the children that Gus mentioned he had since they would be teens at this point. 4 Seasons 10 eps each. We could even get an episode Dedicated to Marie Skyler and Holly and see where they are at. An episode about Flynn’s mental state. Being that deep into cover and helping men like his father would have a toll on his mental health. Maybe that causes him to understand what his father was doing like you said in the video an eventually we could get a scene where he’s on Walt’s grave, forgiving him. I dunno that’d be my take on it.
Not bad! If you really think about it, since Walt Jr was one of the least interesting characters in the series, I wouldn't be surprised if they atleast did something with him to try and get him some respect. I wouldn't be surprised if he over time developed his own version of Hanks personality, since he was so inspired by him
@@AlsoApey that’s what I’m saying! I could also imagine him wanting to use “Schrader” as his last name just like Skyler started using her maiden name post Heisenberg. Maybe that’s how he gets appointed to the case, since he shares his last name with the late and Great ASAC Schrader and also because of their entire family being so close to the DEA. “They’ll know me, they’ll know my voice.” I would actually like to see it.
@@Adreezy_ bro... With that pitch, that's a fkn s tier. I wouldn't mind if they did that in a couple of years! Only question is, how long would it be? Either way, that's probably my favorite idea so far lol
@@AlsoApeythank you so much! I’ve actually had that theory about Flynn joining law enforcement since the start of Better call Saul. We can only trust Vince to make it tho…
I really like how Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul have so many interesting characters that could easily get their own spin-off, but I don't want more because it would end up like a cinematic universe type stuff with writers who have already told the story they want.
I haven't seen anyone recommend a Brock spin off. Wait 10+ years and have Brock join the criminal world all in the hopes of finding Jesse Pinkman and getting closure on what happened to his mom as he was most likely the one who found her body. You can have his journey eventually lead to visiting Saul in jail, confronting Badger and Skinny Pete, and of course ending up in Alaska finding Jesse Pinkman. This is the show I'd want to see.
Id love a spin of that just focuses on how destroyed the world of breaking bad would be with the loss of walt’s blue and no cartel. A bunch of gangs fighting for control in a meth addicted Albuquerque would be amazing
The real story I want to see is the 3AM videos made in the Breaking Bad universe. Imagine someone like JayStation and N&AProductions making a calling Heisenburg at 3AM or don't call Gus Fring at 3AM type of videos. That shit would be hilarious lol
i would like the bb and bcs channel to just release a one hour video of Jesse just chopping wood in Alaska. that would conclude his story perfectly for me
Honestly, I’d be happy enough if Aaron Paul would just post a vlog series of himself, his real wife Lauren, and his real kids up in their Idaho home while they pretend that they’re Jesse Pinkman and his new family. Their Idaho home looks rustic enough to look like it’s in Alaska, especially once winter comes and brings snow around. We can just assume that Jesse goes back and finds Uncle Jack’s money somehow so that he’s filthy rich enough to afford such a spacious mansion. Boom! Happy endings all around. (I wonder if Aaron Paul’s parents would be willing to play Jesse’s parents.)
@@grostavious He can’t. Saul’s in jail. If anything, it’s more likely that Saul calls (or emails) Jesse using a JPay kiosk or whatever. (At least, that’s how my friend and I communicate to each other back when he was in prison.)
For the Salamanca spin off I’d imagine that his son was lost to the Mexican Civil war instead of the Great War . It would make more sense since Mexico never got involved with the conflict and would add a sorta cowboy theme to the series
Honestly, I feel the best way for another spinoff is if Holly and Brock got together and tried to piece together the shattered pieces of their family history, with Flynn trying to get her to stop digging in to the past. Bonus points if there's a plot point with them searching for Jessie over rumors he might have fled to Alaska.
@@zanotellitb5457 Never said they had a romantic relationship, just simply got together in some way. The main point of having those two is that they are relatively young, so if they make another spin off in another 10-15 years we can get new actors to interact with old favorites coming back for cameos
Eh. Should let sleeping dogs lie. There's no need for a show to just bring up old shit. It's really just beating a dead horse and looking for Jesse just ruins the whole idea of Jesse getting away from everything that happened. Also uncovering the truth about her family history would be as easy as looking it up on Google. Walt got outed for most of the things he did
Would a prequel of Gus not be the next logical spinoff?? I feel like we were told or shown enough where there's some tangible stories to base your plot around, but enough mystery to play around with and give us answers. It could start at why he left the army. Giving us some flashbacks when he was a kid that explains why he is the way he is. Mostly focusing on giving context as to why he initially wanted to get into the drug business. They can show how Los Pollos Hermanos comes to be. Really building up the relationship between him and his partner. They never come out and say he's homosexual or that they were intimate, but doing some "love of his life" storyline would give context as to why he chose to stay single at his age. Could have the halfway point of the series building up to showing the scene at Don Eladio's where he is killed. Showing the effect that moment changes him from a half way decent person to a complete psychopath hell bent on revenge, that we can further sympathize with. After that it could show how he eventually gets into working with the cartel, since Eladio originally told him to "stick with chicken" and he would be dead too but they know who he is. Then showing the power struggle he has with the Salamanca's that make them hate each other and how they eventually makes his way into America. Could bounce back and forth giving more context to everyone we know in the cartel until you meet them in Better Call Saul. Obviously you probably can't use the same actors which would suck, but I'm sure it would have people's interest regardless.
I actually really want to see a Huell spinoff. Huell to me has always been a character with an air of mystery around him. I think there is a lot we don’t know about him, and I think he’s generally more empathetic and down to earth than many other characters. I am very curious about his life in New Orleans, and I want to know how his relationship with his family and the city is. Usually when characters in BB/BCS move to Albuquerque from far away, like Mike or Jimmy, they had wanted to escape the life of their hometown. I wonder if Huell had fled New Orleans for a reason. Maybe the series could be about Huell trying to reconcile a broken relationship with his family, while his criminal past in New Orleans starts to catch up with him (and eventually expose his association with Walt). I really think there’s substance here.
You have a nice premise with developing the actual backstory of huell more, but I feel like you're looking at this whole thing from the wrong angle. Huell is inherently a funny character; he walks funny, he talks funny, and he's shaped funny. So, instead of making the show gritty and grim, why not make it a light hearted sitcom? (Think shows like the fresh Prince of bel air, the Bernie mac show, home improvement, etc.) The show could involve huell's day to day life starting some time before the events of better call Saul, with each episode involving a new job. Huell's family should be a focal point of the show, like how it's described here or perhaps something different and wholesome. It would be nice to have a comedy show in the breaking bad series that isn't slippin' Jimmy, too.
If the first thing you say about a character is "they're a mystery" then any spin off explaining the character will be shit. Don't any if you learn from things like Solo?
One thing that i've always found a bit weird is that hector is known as "tio"(uncle), he has a bunch of nephews and everything, but out of nowhere he has a grandson (that guy who jesse kills) with no mention of a son or daugther. So for the salamanca show, i think it would be interesting if instead of lall or hector as the main character, we'd have hector's son, who would initially start off as a cartel hitman but would eventually "break good" and either get killed or run away, forced to leave his son behond. But either way, he'd be disowned and completely forgotten by his family. This would give us a nice change from the other shows, as instead of a likeable protagonist slowly becoming more evil, we'd have a protagonist redeeming himself. We'd also have a lot of new backstory and character development for the salamancas, especially hector, since his relantionship with his son would probably be one of the focal points of the show
I always figured that his son, and probably his brothers, got killed during the cartel’s rise. He does say that Salamanca blood built the cartel and it would also explain even more why he hates the feds so much(assuming that it was the them who killed his family members.”
I think the only thing I think could work would be an El Camino style movie but for Kim Wexler. Where you see how she deals with her past situation and how she chooses to move forward. I realize the ambiguity is kind of the point but hey it worked with Jesse
Kim isn't interesting enough a character without Saul/Jimmy. Honestly, she wasn't one of the best elements of BCS either. Her subplots slowed that show down alot. I don't see anyone(besides whoever was simping for her in the writers room) jonesing for a Kim series
@@MrK2890 I agree. Kim isn’t that interesting enough for me to want a sequel series starring her. We kinda got some sense of her life in Florida anyway, and it seemed dreadfully boring. The only narrative option I think is, now that Kim confessed everything to Howard’s widow, maybe Kim finally feels a weight lifted off her shoulders so that when she returns to her boring life in Florida, it won’t be so boring anymore because Kim finally would finally no longer have what seems like a crippling fear of making decisions.
@@MrK2890 trust me I wasn’t advocating for a series just like a movie, I think it’s something the writers could make interesting. Not that we even need anything else out of this universe anyways. Also I love Kim Wexler I agree with the writer room simp
3:48 Hanks casual racism was banter between two good friends, Hank and Gomez both had multiple times were they’d banter and talk about each others races. It’s just two best friends busting each others balls.
I think you underestimate how good Mike's spinoff could be. Even tho we have a solid understanding of his story I'd love to get into details of his and his son's story, and also I'm curious of what happened to his family after he died. Also considering his incredible skills and experience Mike definitely wasn't just a regular corrupted cop sitting in an office and it would be interesting to see how different was his son. I think this could fit in well in a 10 episodes and I'm way more interested in this story than in Salamanca family's Also they could create a spinoff where they would give us details of what happened to multiple characters who's story is open ended
I mean you're not wrong. It's fun to imagine the conflicts he got into back in the day, but his son story's already told, and the truth about his family is that nothing really happens to them in the end. The real question is, would people enjoy 10 episodes of Mike doing random stuff. I assume we'd see his son die in the finale or something, so there'd be some time skips. In my opinion, that'd just be filler. I'm sure most people would get a bit bored as it goes on, unless they're into shows like law and order.
@@AlsoApey I wanted to suggest something, a anthology film exploring the world and legacy of walter white. Think sort of like exploring several smaller things I'm thinking like maybe the bell of hector salamanca, like what about doing something like bad luck following it or death following it in the crime world. Maybe do segment in the movie on the two guys that walter white confronted when he said stay out of my territory they seemed kinda like Jesse and Walter copies so imagine a fun story of them trying to make fake blue meth and it blowing up in their faces somehow. I am just throwing a few ideas in here which don't invovle established characters, what about something involving Gus Frings backstory without involving gus fring himself, like, there was no reveal as to what was about Gus Frings past and why don eladio really left him alive back then. Maybe there could be some larger connections in chile that move in when walter white is gone and the cartel is gone, like it could represent how even if you cut the head of a hydra another head pops out. Since it'd be an anthology film it'd also be easy to do several short stories on things you'd like to know like the walter white family maybe some way for Walter JR to find out what really happened. More Badger and Skinny pete. Some Huell and what happened with him. It could be interesting but I think it'd required the self control to be minimalistic, the star of the show should be the world itself. I'm thinking like sin city maybe minus the comic booky stuff.
I think a movie about Holly could work really well. It could be about her under home schooling and wondering what her mother has been hiding from her all these years. Holly starts uncovering the secrets of her families past by the searching about her father on the internet and maybe watching the VHS tape of Skylars baby shower. She could come into contact with the last remaining contributors to Walt’s crimes, maybe biking too Skinny Pete’s house and talking to him. The climax could be Holly running away from home in search of Jesse Pinkman by finding clues. She looks through Saul Goodmans boxed away belongings and finding the phone number too the guy who smuggled Jesse into Alaska, she then calls the department to find out it is owned by a new person and the previous owner was Edward Galbraith but he’s in a retirement home with only a couple weeks left to live, she gets information out of him that Jesse lives in Alaska so she sneaks into a train heading to Alaska and then searches for Pinkmans cabin. She eventually collapses in the middle of a blizzard since she’s just a little kid but wakes up in Jesses cabin since Pinkman is always good to kids and then we get this discussion about how she got there in the first place and eventually Jesse discusses his relationship with Walt and what he was like. The film ends with Jesse driving Holly back down to Albuquerque, Holly just lying about running away for some false sob story reason and Jesse visits Skinny Pete and Badger one last time.
I'm obsessed with this idea, and Filthy Weeaboo's like holy shit these sound great You know what one day I might just say fuck it and write something stealing these ideas like aaaaaaaaaaaaa I love them
Jesse and Holly are the only characters in this series with any story left to tell IMO. Jesse because, even though he made it to Alaska, we don't know how he makes a new life there, and Holly just because she's a blank slate. I think a Jesse series could work, but I think you're right that it would be very tonally different from what came before. Then again, who knows. We all expected Better Call Saul to just be an episodic comedy. As for Holly, I think it would be cool to see where she ended up, but a series starring her could very easily end up being contrived. I think she goes down a bad path, personally. With Skyler and Flynn so broken, I think she'd have little support at home, and maybe she grows up morbidly fascinated by Walt's criminal legacy. But realistically, she just ends up as another teen making some bad choices. I don't think there's enough there to do more than maybe a movie.
I think a miniseries at most could happen, but I honestly feel like anything relating to the Breaking Bad series would just feel forced and lose the fanbase.
I'd like to think that Jesse is working as a carpenter. Living in the outskirts of his little town and fixing up everything from doors to tables and chairs. Maybe he even settles down with a wife and kids
Okay: here's a perfect spin off: Jesse is an adult getting by in Alaska. All the while anxiety about how he left things is eating him up, he's wondering how Skinny Pete, Badger, Kaylee Ehrmantraut are doing, and he decides that the search for him has died down enough to pay a visit. He takes a trip to Albuquerque, while he's making sure Mike's family is doing well and sees that they aren't doing well so he tries to find a way to get them money. Then a zombie apocalypse happens, in all the chaos Kaylee's mom dies and Jesse saves Kaylee's life and he also then saves Holly's life, then they run away together trying to make it back up to alaska because zombies don't do well in the cold and it's low population would mean few zombies, during the journey Jesse and Kaylee & Holly develop a father daughter relationship, Jesse becomes the father Kaylee and Holly didn't have, and Kaylee becomes they become the daughters Jesse never had. Jesse struggles in the apocalypse to make sure he redeems himself by taking care of Holly and Kaylee and never letting another person be taken away from him. Basically Last of Us but Breaking Bad. Okay the zombie part is kinda stupid, but if we get over that part I think that show would be awesome and way better than the Last of Us tv show that is coming.
I’d love a short anthology series about some of the BCS/BB side characters with like 20-30 minute episodes. The ones that I’d like to see are Gale, Skinny Pete/Badger, the veterinarian, or anything involving the cartel right when Gus first gets involved. Nothing big, but just little snippets of their past or futures.
The two brilliant ideas I’ve had (and posted elsewhere) for BB/BCS spin-offs: 1) After Gretchen & Elliot decide that Walt was bluffing about having paid hit men to ensure that Flynn gets the money, they do indeed Welch on the agreement. The only problem is that Badger & Skinny Pete have somehow manage to convince themselves that this means they are, indeed now obligated to hunt down & kill them, and proceed to hatch numerous convoluted plots to fulfill their “contract”, with much wackiness ensuing. 2) Philadelphia, early 1980’s: a young (but somehow still grizzled) Mike Ehrmantraut is a rookie cop in the middle of wrestling with a moral dilemma when suddenly a wormhole opens up and spits out a time machine made from the carcass of an old, shot-up Suzuki Esteem, from which emerges a 60-something Jimmy McGill (having managed to reduce his prison sentence to a mere 20 years or so) babbling incoherently about a “Bad Choice Road” Young Mike is somehow convinced to join up with Old Jimmy as together they travel through time & space helping people to choose a better path in their lives, somewhat reminiscent of Quantum Leap. (Obviously, these are not serious proposals. I’m assuming None of the ideas here are really serious, as they’re all ridiculously unnecessary at best.
I had the pleasure of getting to see RJ Mitte at a panel several years ago, and he's such a cool dude! Hes advocating for the handicapped (in and out of Hollywood) in a big way and using his platform to make the world a better place. Legit! While I'd like to see what happened to Walt Jr., I think it might be the same story as the actor himself! Using what he has to help his community.
Honestly, in terms of these characters, I’d say Holly is the most interesting in that she is a clean, blank slate as a character. And if you think her thing is done as a movie or as a miniseries or limited series, I think that’s a decent idea. Here’s my idea: Skyler had her plea deal with the feds, but it’s never actually established what that deal actually is. You can use this as a way to get things to where Holly is at an age where you can tell the story, which can start with Skyler being released from prison or adjusting to life outside prison. Or you could have it where Holly lives with Marie and regularly visits Skyler. Another thing you could set up is where Marie, Skyler, or both of them are slowly working to move on from the events of BB/BCS, namely with something like either of them dating and the new guy taking a new father figure role to Holly, be it Holly having a kind of mentor in an interest she has, or a marriage so Holly’s stepdad would take the role Walt would have had he lived longer and didn’t tear everything apart, if only to keep things from getting TOO depressing. I’d say the conflict would come from Skyler not approving of something Holly has an interest in because she’s afraid of her ending up like Walt (I’m not sure if you could add Gretchen and Elliot into this, but I think an inciting incident would be the reveal of the fact that Flynn’s money he received came from Walt’s coercing). Eventually, the thing that’ll make the story may not be Holly’s rebellion, but instead be from Skyler in that she comes to grips that she’s not only lying to Holly about who Walt, her biological father, actually was (even if it’s by omission), but also to herself in regards to her actions in Breaking Bad in laundering Walt’s money with the car wash and her affair with Ted, resulting in two truths that she can’t run from, even if she took a plea deal and went back to her maiden name: she was a willing participant in the Heisenberg enterprise and she also contributed to the family being as dysfunctional as it is. And while Holly will only see “not being supported in certain things” since she probably can’t comprehend the direct actions of Walt outside of what she’s told or reads about (MAYBE you can bring up the kidnapping saga), and you could turn that into getting increasingly frustrated at not getting straight answers from Skyler or Marie or Flynn in regards to Walt, only getting the same stock responses she’s been getting for years like “he was a teacher” and “he died when you were a baby”. And again, you could just have it be where Holly feels she has no support from her family in what she does, even if she doesn’t know about the full exploits of the one called Heisenberg. Eventually, at the end, Skyler, and maybe Marie and Flynn, realize that holding onto their resentment toward Walt, his actions, and the man he became could result in Holly, probably one of the few truly innocent people in the Heisenberg saga, hating them and that it won’t undo the damage caused like the death of Hank. So we can end it with Skyler and the family finally accepting the things Holly wants to do with her life, along with some talk about “using her powers for good” and it finally brings the story to the two things I find you can take away from this universe and narrative: 1. You are the master of your own fate and 2. The decisions you make are yours and yours alone, and you’re the only one that truly holds responsibility for your actions and their consequences. So what do you think ?
It's an interesting concept. I feel like Marie and Skyler would never repair their relationship after Hank's death. I got the vibe during their last phone call that that was probably one of the first times they had even spoken since Holly's kidnapping.
I still think we need *one* more installment in the universe, specifically: what the fuck happened in Chile that gave Gus such deep-seated respect for Peter Schuler?
I find the Salamancas spinoff really interesting. Hector mentioned before having the stroke that a lot of Salamanca blood was spilled in order to build the drug empire. We know that Hector is the uncle of Tuco, the twins and Lalo, but we never hear anything about their parents. So this spinoff or at least one season of it should be devoted to hector and his siblings building the empire and ending with their death, probably in a fight with a rival group or family. We see Hector lose everyone and become the bitter old man that teaches his nephews that family is the most important thing.
I feel like a spinoff about how gus built up los pollos hermanos would be a good spinoff with it starting with him in chile and building his restaurant chain, met max, and it explaining why he decided to go into the business with the cartel
A sequel show about badger and Skinny Pete getting in over their heads in the crime world could work. Possibly there was a clue as to where Todd's uncle Jack hid the 80 mil in the El Camino Jesse left. Perhaps it could have a more comedic bend.
What about a show about Gus? I think he is one of the most interesting characters/villains in the show and in Breaking Bad and in Better Call Saul we got a little insight in his past. A show about his past in Chile, how he met Maxwell and how he got into the business would probably work very well.
Me and my friends came up with a pretty good concept (At least, in my opinion) for a Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul spin-off show. The name we gave the concept was "Aftermath," and for good reason. Basically, you know how Better Call Saul touched on the effects of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul on side characters, like Francisca and Huell? Now, obviously, a show about Huell cannot work, as you pointed out, so, what can we do? Well, the idea is a single season, idk how many episodes, of Aftermath. Each episode focuses on a character or a group of characters post-Breaking Bad. So, one episode could be showing off what really happens to Kim after BCS, one could be a small redemption arc for Huell, one could be about Francesca struggling to make a living with the cops on her back, one could be a slice of life with Jesse in Alaska, maybe even featuring the main conflict as him trying to move on from the PTSD left over, one could be all about the White family trying to free themselves from the reputation Walt left for them, etc. You get the point. It'd basically be like an anthology series all set in the BB/BCS universe, dealing with the aftermath of everything on some characters who weren't really touched on, hence the name.
hmm i do like this idea, but i am not sure how that would actually work. Most characters after the events of El Camino is either dead or have just settled down. I can't really see how that would be very interesting or exciting. Maybe it could kind of work if done correctly and with a lot of finesse. But i still can't see how that would work with the same feel and atmosphere that BCS and BB gives us. While El Camino is a great movie, even that failed to reproduce that iconic BB feel and atmosphere.
I want to unironically suggest at least a movie (but ideally a miniseries) about Walter Jr. coming to terms with his horrible upbringing and trying to be a good role model for Holly knowing that as she grows up those are hard to come by. Maybe he finds love but that’s a much less important factor for this idea to work. It could be interesting to see what happens to the family before and after Saul’s trial, and we could see how Gretchen and Elliot giving them Walt’s money is handled. I think there’s potential. The main problem I see with the idea is a distinct lack of action, it would be very character driven, but it could be neat. (Also if we ever got another prequel, I think a Nacho based tragedy would be a more interesting route than a Salamanca show because a Salamanca show gives us no one to root for)
If there is going to be any sequel thing with Walt Jr., then I demand to see him tracking down Jesse and visiting him up in Alaska so that he can get more details on his father’s death and thus gain more closure.
@@Defectum138 Yes, I am a Jesse enthusiast since I find him to be a very sympathetic character who carries a lot of pathos. The BB spin-off I would prefer is simply one that follows Jesse’s adventures in Alaska. There are a variety of different possible plotlines for this sequel series: First of all, there is obviously the intense psychological turmoil that Jesse has to face within himself. Hopefully, he’ll find someone whom he can trust and open up to so that he will finally heal from all his past trauma. (That actually happens in this Breaking Bad fanfic called The Last Frontier where Jesse goes to a bar in Alaska and meets this redheaded woman who introduces him to everyone around town.) Plus, there can still be drug rings around Alaska. Jesse very likely would never be willing to get involved with them himself but could potentially get caught up with them, especially if there’s a rescue plot involved with one of Jesse’s loved ones. (That happens in this fanfic called Alaska by Liym Enello which is about Jesse falling in love with this blonde woman who gets caught up with the local drug ring, so Jesse has to go rescue her from her kidnappers.) There’s also the matter of Walt Jr or Skyler or even Marie wanting to track down Jesse and get more details about Walt’s and Hank’s deaths so as to get more closure. Jesse’s brother Jake can go potentially track down Jesse since he kinda looks up to him. Finally, I always wondered if Jesse could adopt the redheaded Peekaboo boy out of the foster care system and raise him (or at least marry a woman who’s willing to adopt that boy, if there are too many legal hurdles for Jesse to adopt).
I think a short series about Jesse just living a happy life in Alaska with no interruptions would be nice for the character, seeing as he’s never really been able to live a peaceful life in breaking bad
So the general consensus is that most of these shows wouldn’t really have enough to work with and turn into a full show? then maybe an anthology would work which would show us more insight into different characters backgrounds to really flesh out their characters and give people what they want without making an unfulfilling show on one character who’s arc is pretty much done
I like to think Jesse has a cottage close to the mountains, and trees. He has his own workshop, he has a little business, but it’s more helping the community, he’s not popular. Just a random guy crafting wood.
I'm thinking do Gus's entire life story. Gotta admit, his backstory is pretty insane and has TONS of loopholes. The character in general has a ton of loopholes. All we know is he's evil, he's a genius, and built an empire over 20 years to exact revenge. And also, Walt was the only person on earth able to kill him.
I feel like a Jesse show would mainly be about him dealing with his PTSD and trying to live a stable life like you said, but I would also like to see an emotional scene where he meets his faimily again, more specifically his little brother. I generally feel like another Jesse show/movie would be very depressing due to his PTSD, depression, and his low mental stability.
Here's an idea: Call it _A Stable Life_ , and it's about him working literally in a stable with horses or mules. And he *thinks* one of them talks to him! Get the irony?
TEDucation: Theodore "Ted" Beneke's own spinoff set before he became the owner and president of Beneke Fabricators. In this eight seasons long series, we follow how Ted was actually part of the Salamanca cartel long before the events of Better Call Saul. We also get to know some interesting backstories, for example about Lyle's childhood and how Gus got his first glasses.
Honestly, I can see the Flynn show happening. I would love a one to two season mini series about the repercussions Walt left on his family, and Flynn being involved in gangs in later years by force. He begins to start taking the path Hank did and busts the operation from the inside, but learns the horrific experiences both the criminals and those who take care of them have to go through. Maybe, if it were to be longer, Walt Jr. decides to join the DEA. “I would rather take gallons of pain like that than let someone else take an ounce of it.” He rises up the ranks and some other drug operations are busted until he gets sent to Alaska to investigate sightings of a man who seems to be Jesse Pinkman, and he finds him. They get in a scuffle, but in the end, they have a conversation. Walt Jr. figures out the two are incredibly alike, due to… well, you can guess. Flynn would resign his position in the DEA and let Jesse live his life, stating he “couldn’t let himself finish what he started” to Skyler, who would be against her son taking a position in law enforcement, since she wants to leave any part of that life behind.
@@toxpov3612 Flynn's actor (RJ Mitte) has cerebral palsy in real life and he only needed walking sticks when he was younger. His legs became stronger as he was growing up and now he can use his legs to full extent. So canonically it's 100% possible that his legs recover and he's able to have the DEA job.
Honestly I think you’re underestimating a kim show, it could take place RIGHTTTTT after she breaks up with jimmy, it could explore her new life in Florida and exactly how dull it is And maybe the last season could be post-saul gone or something
I think this cinematic universe still has a lot to give us. Even when thinking about better call saul I thought he wasn't interesting enough, but they were able to turn it into an epic even greater than the original. What you seem to be missing is that these stories would never be standalones. In BCS they put together Saul's backstory, Gus' backstory, and Mike's in a way that made it as great as it is. In the same way If a Walt jr show had him a few years later in his late 20s moving to alaska for work and interacting with Jesse, as they slowly befriend each other and some inciting incident ends up with Walt figuring it out. At the same time we could have some associate of the Nazis that found a lead on Jesse and is coming for him. Something like this definitely has the potential to be just as good or at least capture the feeling of the first shows. A spinoff that sees us exploring Gus's very early years, as well as Hector, Bolsa, and Eladio starting the business and young salamancas like Lalo as kids, seeing triggering events that led to what they are. A young Hank could also lose a mentor while pursuing the cartel, never finding out exactly who did it, but making him hate latinos, as well as reinforcing the way in which everyone was so happy in breaking bad when the twins died. These are the first 2 ideas for shows that came out of my mind and they can surely be great if Vince Gilligan and his team are ever willing to work on the franchise again.
Those are very good ideas! I think you're right, the spin offs need to focus on more than one character to be worth existing. I do think that with Gus, he's been a bit over used and we already have had 2 development arcs in a way from him, in breaking bad and BCS. I also believe that BCS wouldn't be the show that it is without having the post breaking bad plot with Jimmy in Nebraska. A lot of other spin offs featuring dead characters can't do that, since, you know, they're dead lol. There's still ways to develop a dead character even more, but for me personally, Gus shouldn't ever come back. I like a lot of the other ideas that people have come up with though
@@AlsoApey yeah I get the Gus fatigue too, if he was ever to come back I'd like to see him as a final season introduction to a show like the Salamanca prequel, just getting to see him spending a few good episodes with his friend/boyfriend, and understanding why they got into the business.
Ok I wasn't sold on any Walt Jr spin-off ideas until this one. This one I can see fitting cohesively in the universe and seems like a natural next step for the characters. Put in some of that Vince magic to create new lovable characters and a story around that and that low key sounds fire af🔥.
I think it would be good if they did a spin off which basically is all these ideas but they essentially have 1-3 episodes on each story And it would be like a 16 (give or take) episode show. I really would like to see what happens to Walt’s daughter, like it’s pretty obvious what happened to skyler and Walt jr, but holly? Does she know, if not how does she find out? She never met Walt properly and if she does remember him she would only have good memories because of how Walt acted around her
I agree accept Hank needs his own separate show. This is because the only thing you could add to Hank's story that we don't already know is by creating a show for people who don't releaze it's a Breaking Bad Show (or don't know what breaking bad is) and creating the twist ending that Walter is the Heisenberg all along.
I just want so bad a Gus Series, explaining what happened in Chile (we can use the actor of The Boys of young Giancarlo, is so perfect for the role of young Gus)
Wonder if they could make a short show about an “obsessed fan” with the Heisenberg case. Someone who’s making a “documentary” for himself and trying to find each one (Jesse, saul, mike, etc) after the whole incident to interview. With it, it can end in the “obsessed fan” being able to possibly gather information on the location of bodies like Howard, etc. Possibly bringing closure to the families and to us viewers.
@@Can-Do_Studios I know Mike died. But he was never located or discovered. Someone looking from the outside in would try to find him, not knowing that he’s dead.
Not really the same thing, but I’d love to see a GTA-style BB/BCS game. I think I remember Vince even saying he’d be interested in something like that. But it’ll never happen
I’ve heard ideas of a salamanca movie about the cousins pulling hits in Mexico but honestly I just wanna see all the salamancas interact with eachother
I think a cool idea for a breaking bad spin off is the series framed from the perspective of a documentary or book written from the perspective of a 3rd party. Or a memoir from Saul Goodman or something like that, either written directly by the character or a ghost writer.
It would be interesting to have a series with only one season, each episode about 20 minutes long, each using one of the examples mentioned in the video and in the comments, for example: 1. An episode about Walt Jr. and how he joined the DEA inspired by his uncle 2. About Skyler and how she struggles to overcome grief and the crimes she was involved in 3. An episode of pure comedy with Badger and Skinny Pete talking nonsense 4. A quiet and calm episode, about how Jesse lives in Alaska in peace 5. A comedic episode about Huell 6. A nostalgic episode with Holly and Kaylee meeting and talking about the past 7. An episode showing how the Salamancas empire came about, showing Hector's great achievements 8. A random episode with Ed, showing him disappearing with real-world celebrities for funny reasons
I feel like the holly movie could be really good if the story is when she is a adult she tries to find out what happened to her dad and revisiting old characters such as badger or even visiting walter’s cabin in Alaska
I thought about a prequel with Nacho. By the time we get to know his character he’s in too deep and the ramifications of his choices are already in route to destroy him. But what about his past. How did HE of all people get in close with the Salamancas? And Tuco’s right hand man no less. What atrocities did he commit to earn their trust? What put him on the path in the first place seeing as his father was a good man that managed to instill some good in him? What was the initial fallout when he told his father? Where’s his mother? Did he join the underworld to help his family and got in too deep? These are questions worth exploring in my opinion
He’s only really close with Tuco before BCS. I don’t think Nacho even meets the other Salamancas until then. And although he’s a Salamanca, Tuco isn’t that far up the hierarchy, so it probably wouldn’t take much to get in with him. At least not anything interesting enough to make a show out of.
I just finished Breaking Bad today (loved it) and i knew about Better Call Saul, but when I saw the thumbnail I thought all of those were real things lmfao the disappointment when reality hit 😭
Honestly, I think way down the road a Holly White spinoff could work. She grows up without a father, knowing the horrible criminal he was, but looks up to her Uncle Hank as a hero and aspires to be a DEA agent like him. She's a bit temperamental and can go rogue at times, which can be a character trait of hers seeing as she did grow up with a stable father figure and knew about all the horrible things her father did, and inherited some of Walter's ego as well. It can be kinda like The Shield, where Holly White is a Vic Mackey type of law enforcement officer that sometimes goes too far.
A KIM MOVIE! switching between her past and future of becoming a lawyer again. You know the creators are able to switch between timelines seamlessly The two Kim flashbacks could absolutely be built upon, I’m not saying I want this but if a movie was made on Jesse, why not Kim? After them crossing paths in season 6 you can see so many parallels there
Prequels for the BB universe is getting increasingly harder to achieve because most of these actors are between 60-85. Hector is 83 in the real world Tuco is 61 Don Eladio is 65 Walt is 66 Mike is 75 Saul is 60 Gus is 64 Perhaps they should just make a comedy with them all in a retirement home and call the show Breaking Bingo. lol
@@tomfoolery3847 Yeah, for sure. When I cracked the bingo joke, I was being somewhat serious which is why I said it would make a good comedy/spoof because they could still all play their characters from BB, it would make a good sketch or mini series while obviously not being canon. I do think that a Salamanca spin-off could potentially work if Vince wanted to go that route but I feel like he would need to recast some of the family members. Someone mentioned using a deepfake for it and while that can work to a certain extent, I remember when I watched The Irishman that every old man in the movie portraying someone young, looked extremely stiff because they are filming old men with young men bodies. I also felt a weird sadness seeing all the actors again as them younger selves because for some reason, de-aging them is a massive reminder of just how much time has passed and it makes watching it sad, at least that is how i felt while watching The Irishman. lol
I'm surprised no one talked about the veterinarian that had the list of names of different contacts, that seems more viable than heuls rule or minerals.
I thought what about Jesse starts a family in Alaska, then maybe his son starts getting involved with the wrong crowd and Jesse takes up an opposite role to Walter and similar to Hank. He's trying to clean up the community from the shadows without getting the police on his trail while doing it all so his son or daughter doesn't make the same mistakes he did. He is forced to come to terms with his own past, gets some perspective on Walters decisions and met with some of the same of the decisions Walter had to make, he chooses the better path for his family.
Honestly, I would love to see a series of very short vignette specials of minor characters Walt, Saul, and Jesse knew reacting to the national news about their criminal empire. The film kids working in Hollywood as PAs and seeing their old lawyer buddy as the criminal accomplice of the country's biggest meth kingpin. The air force captain, now a commander, seeing 'the wheel finally turn' on Jimmy. Walt's students in college seeing goofy Mr. White as an infamous criminal legend. That kind of thing; it'd be interesting to see their reactions.
If you've read the amount of comments I read, then you'd know only one of them was a meme lmao. Though they were most likely a vocal minority, I still felt like I should discuss em
Minerals, Huell's Rules/Better Fuel Huell, Breaking Bad 2: Return of Flynn and Better Rim Kim are all memes, but I've seen tons of people unironically asking for a Mike prequel or a Salamanca prequel.
I feel like the Gus one would actually work Quite well. Gus definitely has biggest backstory of all the breaking bad main characters. Far more than saul. So much about him is unknown. How he got into the business with the cartel , his upbringing and choices/ decisions that lead him to that path. More about his boyfriend/partner who was the one who knew more about the drug business in beginning before his death, about his chicken business, about how he created his drug empire to get to the point it got all by himself. There's just so much they can do with his character. I'm not saying it needs to be 5 seasons but then doing a season or 2 on Gus would be great and I feel they can also tie the Salamancas rise in the show and show there side. So you'll see Gus as main character with cameos from some other breaking bad characters such as Mike. Then you'll see the Salamancas rise with characters such as Hector , Tuco, Lalo and the Twins and there rise. There's definitely conflicts both sides had to get through to get to where they got prior to everything in better call saul/breaking bad. Maybe two 10-12 episode seasons showcasing those characters most importantly Gus and his rise i feel would do very well.
If they were to continue this universe in any way I’d only want it to be through a movie or some short films, similar to Marvel’s new “special presentations”. Give us a 40-60 minute short film about Flynn, Skyler, Marie and Holly a decade on, even just to show them rebuilt and reassure us that in the end they’ll be okay - or perhaps a more dramatic tale, I’ve always wondered what would happen if Flynn or Skyler found out where Gretchen and Elliot’s donation came from... There’s plenty of other stories and characters than can be explored in a short form piece, what happened to Kim could be a 20 minute ambiguous but hopefully look at her getting her life on track, a 10 minute short about Stacey and Kaylee after Mike’s death even, perhaps a quick half hour look into one of the legendary Salamanca hits. None of these are really necessary, if I had to pick on it would be a 45 minute exploration of the White family 10-15 years on reconciling the legacy of Heisenberg and their push to move forward and become a family again. If they were to expand in this way though, I just hope they wouldn’t touch Jesse or Gus as their stories are done
Not bad at all. I prefer these ideas over the ones which would feature an entire season that's as long as BCS season 1, just to cover a singular plot point lol
I think with Holly they could do a decent or good show with her growing up wanting to find out more about her father so one day she asks Skyler about it and while she is drunk she reveals that her father was a drug dealer. Then Holly would go search for more so she would met an older skinny Pete and Badger for answers. They get some leads and they mention that Jesse was the only one alive who was with Walter all along and that the only thing left from him in Alberquerque was the letter for Brock. She finds Brock and they decide to get answers so they go in search of Jesse Pinkman. When they find him he starts telling them both what happened and at the end Brock can get revenge for his mother or simply let go of Pinkman and forgive him for everything. They would both leave Jesse. This would be kinda boring but it would be the best ending.
I believe the best option for a breaking bad sequel/prequel is an anthology show where we jump around from character to character across the recent history of the breaking bad universe. Basically, just clone wars but in the breaking bad universe
If there were a holly I would imagine her trying to find out who Walter was (sorta assuming that jr and skyler don’t mention or talk about him) where she goes back to albaqurcie to find he was a meth cook but ends up looking for his associates for more info and we get cameos from Saul Jesse skinny Pete badger huel and others
My thoughts for the Jesse in alaska would be that Jesse attempts to reset his life by finding a temporary job willing to pay him under the table, and collecting the money he needs to set up life as an Alaskan Bushman. He would then run into other people helped by Ed Galbraith, many of them talking about the people they used to be before fleeing. The show could have some potential, including creating new characters and forging new relationships.

Edit 2: Walt Jr get's 9.7 million, not 900k. My bad lol
Edit: I think I should add that I'm also bias (who isn't?) My criteria here is heavily based on the question, 'will there be character development?' if the answer was no, then I was already turned off from the ideas. I respect everyone's opinions, these vids wouldn't be possible without them!
Imo Walt Jr is the most viable choice, the series ends and he has a ton of baggage. Imagine if he grows up trying to emulate Hank and become a DEA agent or detective. The series doesn't really establish how intelligent he is because he just acts like a normal kid aside from the cerebral palsy, but if he is as intelligent as Walt then he could have a super compelling dynamic trying to be taken seriously as a disabled person. Also it keeps the identity motif because like Saul and Heisenberg he calls himself Flynn Lambert (or even Flynn Schrader) but he used to be Walter White. Also he's got like millions of dollars that he probably knows is drug money so that's cool.
The hank thing you mentioned about that kind of racist line. So vince never intended hank to have a charater arc. Everyone mentions the fact jesse was going to die in episode 9 originally but most of breaking bads best charaters were almost not in the shoe. Jesse originally would die season 1. Gus was meant to be a one episode charater. Walt would outgrow saul and mike was a charater created because odenkirk wasn't on set. Hank was just originally a foil to walts masculinity he was a show off tough guy even if he was short he was just kind of intended to be doughy but not evil and the idea of when he called emillio a... yknow. Was hank has been a dea agent for some time that he has seen criminals on the street that are Mexican so its developed not necessarily racism but biases. So to awnser if that was intentional yes it was hank was originally just a douch.
Breaking bad had a lot of organic writing and it's not like they accidentally made a good show its just they through trial and error behind the scenes and seeing what works and what doesnt the show runners let things write organically so they realized Aron Paul was to good of an actor to kill in season 2 post writters strikd although arron did almost die on set durring season 2 so that would of been an oopsie. Mike was just sauls private investigator but they saw potential. Gus was just a quick fix for walt durring season 2. Dean Norris played the charater vince intended perfectly vince saw he could do more than that because Dean had a lot more going on seeing he was a more complicated person
That's why tucos death was important because for the most part he acts like criminals are humans even if they are evil and even though he may not act like he realizes this he is a charater who emotionally covers up his own pain and problems.
Tdlr; yes the emilio line you are talking about was meant to be kind of racist because it was before vince made hank a more complicated charater
Breaking bad was a show that had a lot of organic writting seeing what works and what didn't
"I'm also bias"
BIASED.
But there is a sequel to Breaking Bad. It is called The Walking Dead. Zombies were made from Walts blue drugs.
@@theq6797 that's dumb.
I think it’s very clear Minerals would take place in the timeline where Hank climbed out of his own grave.
Minerals would basically be an alternate universe story where, after Uncle Jack’s gang drives away with Jesse as their new slave, Hank is able to rise from the grave because the natural healing crystals in the soil were able to restore Hank’s broken body due to his devotion to minerals. The minerals in the soil use vibrations to help Hank track down Uncle Jack’s compound and avenge Gomez’s death (and rescue Jesse too). Hank charges in, guns blazing, and even uses earth-bending powers. After rescuing Jesse, Hank takes him under his wing and mentors Jesse so he can help solve cases for the DEA, kinda like Frank Abagnale in Catch Me If You Can. Eventually, Jesse moves to Alaska, not because to start over a new life or whatever per se, but because the DEA relocates Jesse there on a secret undercover mission to help bust drug rings up in Alaska. (Considering Alaska’s proximity to Russia, we can even pretend that some Russian mobsters are involved too.)

@@mechadoggy yes
I love the ”Breaking Bad 2” image, like Saul’s an old man, Flynn is an adult, but Jesse hasn’t aged a day
People who live in Alaska famously do not age apparently
He crashed on his trip to Alaska and was frozen solid in the ice like captain america
im high asf and ive been giggling at the photo for like 2 mins rn
Flynn also looks like nacho for no reason
Makes sense. Saul aged 13 years from 2008 to 2010.
If Walter had his own show, that’d be epic if it were anything like Heisenberg’s show.
Good news! They actually made a alternate show about Walter taking the vacuum guys card and starting a new family called “Malcolm in the middle”
Nah i don't think so
I think they should make a spin off about Saul and it should be called call Saul or something
@@PanzerKampf67 yeah that would be awesoem and cool
Better Bang Hank would make me cry 😥
The Salamanca idea sounds like the best idea for a spin-off because, when you think about it, almost all major plot points go back to that family: Gustavo's revenge arc, Walt breaking into the game through Tuco, The "Twin Reapers" (as I call them) going after Walt and Hank, Lalo's feud with Gus and Saul. The man who gave birth to this family of menaces is Hector Salamanca. Lakota, Tuco, the Twins, it all goes back to Hector. Going back to his start in the drug game, exploring his development, and how he influenced his family could work, if done right. Wouldn't beat Breaking Bad, but I think it would be interesting to see.
Salamanca prequel could definitely work but only if they find the right actors for younger versions of Hector, Lalo, Tuco and the twins, otherwise it would end up feeling like a cheap fanfiction.
Best part of BCS was the cartel I honestly blocked out lot of the lawyer stuff 😂
ok kid @@JustTryingToTH-cam
How do you know it couldn't beat _Breaking Bad_ ? I wouldn't've believed _Better Call Saul_ would've beaten it either, but IMO it edged it out.
I think a Salamanca show would be fantastic. I also think it would very much be like Narcos. Hector should not be in the drug game at the start of the show, neither would his brothers or sister(s) (he obviously had to have siblings for the twins and lalo/tuco to exist).
It's the best option to have it be centered around those siblings and for Hector to just be living his life (whatever it was) until his siblings broke bad and then he got involved. He really does love his family and the show really has to nail that point.
I always viewed better Call Saul as also Mike's show. It told us how he got into the business and I think it was exactly what I would have wanted from a Mike show.
Absolutely. Mike was my favorite character in breaking bad and his bigger role in BCS is what hooked me. He’s such a compelling, complex character.
the official synopsis for season 1 describes the show as being half about Mike, ironically Mike only has about 2 episodes and a half for himself in season 1, but this ends up being entirely true from season 2 onwards
half the episodes are about mike anyways
Mike is pretty much the secondary main character of bcs much like jesse is for bb.
I think a single episode of just Jessie actually being happy in Alaska would be amazing. Such a tortured character deserves peace
Lilyhammer, but Jesse in Alaska.
Ikr? Honestly, I’d be happy enough if Aaron Paul would just post a vlog series of himself, his real wife Lauren, and his real kids up in their Idaho home while they pretend that they’re Jesse Pinkman and his new family. Their Idaho home looks rustic enough to look like it’s in Alaska, especially once winter comes and brings snow around. We can just assume that Jesse goes back and finds Uncle Jack’s money somehow so that he’s filthy rich enough to afford such a spacious mansion. Boom! Happy endings all around. (I wonder if Aaron Paul’s parents would be willing to play Jesse’s parents.)
What I would prefer though is a whole new series (or even mini-series) about Jesse covering various plotlines.
First of all, there is obviously the intense psychological turmoil that Jesse has to face within himself. Hopefully, he’ll find someone whom he can trust and open up to so that he will finally heal from all his past trauma. (That actually happens in this Breaking Bad fanfic called The Last Frontier where Jesse goes to a bar in Alaska and meets this redheaded woman who introduces him to everyone around town.)
Plus, there can still be drug rings around Alaska. Jesse very likely would never be willing to get involved with them himself but could potentially get caught up with them, especially if there’s a rescue plot involved with one of Jesse’s loved ones. (That happens in this fanfic called Alaska by Liym Enello which is about Jesse falling in love with this blonde woman who gets caught up with the local drug ring, so Jesse has to go rescue her from her kidnappers.)
There’s also the matter of Walt Jr or Skyler or even Marie wanting to track down Jesse and get more details about Walt’s and Hank’s deaths so as to get more closure.
Jesse’s brother Jake can go potentially track down Jesse since he kinda looks up to him.
Finally, I always wondered if Jesse could adopt the redheaded Peekaboo boy out of the foster care system and raise him (or at least marry a woman who’s willing to adopt that boy, if there are too many legal hurdles for Jesse to adopt).
Admittedly, this proposed sequel series would likely have a markedly different tone than that of Breaking Bad, but that’s okay. If anything, maybe they can put these ideas into a book, allowing for slower pacing, instead of some action-packed TV series. (Plus, writing a book would be much cheaper and less of a commitment than producing a whole TV series. There would also be zero issues of this or that actor being too old to play this or that character. All you need is a tasteful arrangement of photos of the actors to serve as your character sheet for the reader.)
@@mechadoggy my problem with all the new breaking bad content is everyone looks much older and its a stark contrast between characters in BB and BCS and any new content i feel would have to be wayy in the future or be based on new characters in the same universe even the characters in BCS who were in BB look way different like huell.
@@JustKhari “any new content i feel would have to be wayy in the future” That’s fine. We can follow Jesse’s adventures up in Alaska with the ideas I mentioned in a previous comment. Can you give me your thoughts on them?
“my problem… is everyone looks much older” That’s a very valid point. Any new content doesn’t have to be in a TV format though but can exist as a comic/manga, anime, audiobook, regular book, or even a video game. Here’s my proposal for a GTA-style Breaking Bad video game that re-imagines some stuff:
Basically, you play as Jesse working for Gus’s meth operation doing missions and working with various possible mentors.
Combo, Badger, and Pete can all give you various missions with selling meth or dealing with the street-side in general. (One of them involves tracking down Combo’s killer and avenging his death. Another will be tracking down the couple who robbed Pete, basically the plot to Peekaboo.)
As Gus’s head of security, Mike is there to give you security tips, firearms training, and some bounty related missions that can unlock access to different kinds of guns and gun upgrades. On some missions, you and Mike team up together to take down a whole cartel in a certain building as a raid.
As one of Gus’s chemists, Gale has you retrieve/steal certain reagents and do other chemistry-related missions as well as being in charge of this organic chemistry simulator mini-game which can unlock access to recipes to crafting certain health items. Gale can also give you research-related missions where you have to steal documents/schematics (or hack some place to get them) so that you don’t just make meth but can expand Gus’s product line to include ecstasy, LSD, heroin, fentanyl, PCP, steroids, or even aphrodisiacs to help maximize Gus’s profits.
Putting Better Fuel Huell in D Tier is actually criminal, it felt like he stabbed me in the heart.
He just hasn't considered the cinematic masterpiece that a 36 hour long real-time long shot POV Kim vore scene would be.

True, or better yet, all of them working together at the same time. Since Lalo was introduced later on, they were never all in the same place at once
Maybe add Joaquin aswell
@@eyedragongaming6371 and abuelita

@@finger420 also gonzo and maybe they could retcon gaff into being a salamanca
Someone once pitched the idea of a show where Kaylee (mike's granddaughter) and Holly, 25 years later, team up to uncover the truth of what happened to Mike and Walt while working through the resentments they harbor towards their parental figures. Idk how they would carry that premise for more than one season, maybe a 6 episode miniseries in as a creatives' retrospective, but at least it's something.
Could be interesting.
Woah
A show where the premise is that you’re waiting for two characters to find out about something the viewer already knows about? Idk man
Sounds pretty interesting, needs a little more I think but it could be cool seeing how people deal with the grief knowing their relatives were pretty shitty people who did awful things for them
Kaylee would love mike no matter what
I have an idea for a show about that Walter White fellow that Saul worked with. It would show his entrance into the drug world and follow his rise to power and moral descent into villainy up until his death. They could call it Better Halt Walt or something
Remember that précis that Saul gave someone about such a story? What if it turned out that, although we assumed that was Heisenberg, it was someone else entirely who had an even more spectacular history, that Saul knew as well?
Bro this idea sucks, no one would like this
Terrible idea never try to be creative again

Don't you DARE badmouth Better Fuel Huell! This show is modern masterpiece, once in a lifetime piece of art that defines a generation. Decades and centuries from now people in universities will be studying it's subtle and intricate writing and commentary on human condition. This is a classic, yet modern twist on a timeless narrative. A masterclass in both worldbuilding and storytelling.
Better Fuel Huell is truly a masterpiece. Even the worst episode in its ten seasons is essential watching for all cultured people. Like Better Call Saul, it started off slow by showing Huell's origins and meeting Saul and Kuby, but by the end, Huell's revenge on Hank and his bank heist are some of the most heart racing stories ever to cross a TV screen. I haven't finished the finale where he goes to free Saul, because just seeing the first half of the finale made me uncontrollably bust
@@wabc2336Not to mention all the instruction he gives the audience in sleight of hand. You know, that 2 minute segment in every show where he sits and demonstrates how to make things appear and disappear, to go with those official Huell magic kits.
To elaborate on your Salamanca family spin-off idea. Here's my pitch:
Three ten episode seasons, each one focuses on a different era of the Salamanca family.
Part 1: Rise of the Salamanca
Basically the story that you set up in the video. An older man is trying to raise his grandson Hector after he lost his son in the war.
Part 2: The Three Dons
A season showing us the creation of the cartel and how Eladio,Bolsa and Hector got together. Maybe we get some elaboration on the Santiago incident that Lalo mentioned in S4 and Gustavo Fring's real identity
Part 3: Lalo,Tuco and the twins
Finally, a story that focuses on the Salamanca family at their peak. We get some fanservice moments like seeing Hector and a younger Lalo burning the hotel. It culminates in the four nephews of Hector single-handedly eliminating a whole rival gang by themselves and gaining their respects: Lalo becomes a don,Tuco gets put in charge of the operation in ABQ and the twins become the cartel's top henchmen.
I hope y'all like my dumb ideas lol.
Bravo Vince, I mean A.G
Now this is perfect, the best of both worlds. Absolutely love it
@@AlsoApey hey I like that y'all liked it. I agree that they shouldn't make another spin-off in the BB universe but if they had to the Salamancas are best the characters that Vince and co can build interesting narratives around.
Great pitch but I'd probably give some backstory to Joaquin since we know almost nothing about him
This is fucking amazing, I need this now
If they did make a show about Walter Jr and Skyler, a good story for Flynn would be him trying to get in the DEA because of how much he looked up to his uncle Hank
"You're a pussy."
- Walter White Jr. to Walter White
A copaganda BB spin-off sounds like torture
@@onlymyself1234 Degenerate detected.
@keno2285 Walter is dead so now hes just Jr
@@hubertop1247Everyone's dad will die at some point, that doesn't mean every Jr. changes their name
A movie (similar to El Camino for Breaking Bad) explaining more of Gus Fring's origins wouldn't be bad. His history with Max, in Chile, getting in to the cartel, losing Max and plotting revenge on Hector Salamanca, the final logistics of the super-lab's creation from Lalo's death to the first time Gus shows Walt the super-lab. That would be an interesting character exploration imo
I love this idea
You can't explore Gus Fring's past too much though without ruining the mysteriousness behind his character. A big reason why Gus Fring is such a good character is because his origins are so enigmatic, a bit like the CSM from the X-Files before they ruined the show.
Show ends with Gus and Max driving up to don eladio’s house and walking in
a 10-20 episode series could cover a lot of ground and doesn't need to tie up loose ends post-breaking bad
Naw. Just leave his background mysterious.
Another idea could be a documentary about Walter's empire set in the universe explaining the events of breaking bad and better call saul. They would interview people like Flynn, Saul, Skyler, Marie, Huel etc. It would only be 40 minuets- an hour but could still cover up a lot of questions
Honestly I would kind of love this lol
I highly doubt Walter Jr and Skyler would give an interview.
Yknow what I think would happen in universe? I think a ton of people would believe that hank was involved in Walt’s empire. People would see that this notorious drug kingpin had a brother in law in the DEA who never noticed the many coincidences and would start thinking there was something fishy there.
That's what he meant by mocumentary
yeah like a special or something, that could be cool. that could also fix the issue of people wanting to know what happened to the whites after walter.
another thing that could be neat is maybe like a miniseries with four-ish episodes following walters family right after they gets walters money, or the few months between granite state and felina.
I have a better chance of hooking up with Tessa Taylor than that happening.
If breaking bad really wanted to go down the Salamanca 100 years ago, it would be a very interesting time, and not even for ww1. This was in the midst of the Mexican revolution, when you had loads of turmoil, conflict and massive personalities like Pancho Villa and Emiliano Zapata running around. You could definitely do something like "idealistic revolutionary becomes cynical mercenary becomes greedy druglord"
that would be too mexican, it would need to focus more in the usa. Maybe in the american-mexican war or something.
@@no_se_nada_de_nada I don't know that there's too much that's relevant here in the 1840s man but it is a cool idea
John Marston cameo?
@runa_n7391 why?
Exactly, Mexico was neutral during World War I and the Mexican Revolution is a very underrepresented subject
A hank prequel special on an unrelated early cartel bust in his career would be something completely unnecessary but potentially fire
Much better than a full fledged tv series with different baddies each week
A really bad cartoon where every single episode hank and his rag tag team of friends go on wacky adventures to try and bust the next big bad cartel boss
@@andrewsampson9065 tankin' henry

@A foolish samurai warrior Better Spank Hank
Honestly I think a sequel show about Walts family would work much better from the perspective of Holly. She never got to meet her father, or see the consequences the consequences of his actions, thus she could be more sympathetic towards the father figure she never got to have, instead blaming her depressive mother. This would mean it makes much more sense for her to enter her fathers trade in some manner (although the drug trade probably doesn’t take too kindly to strong female protagonists).
Update if anyone gives a shit: I’ve been thinking about this over the past…. Year (I’m odd) and I think examining a mythologisation of Heisenburg and of greatness of decency would be interesting. Perhaps Hollys husband is just as much of a main character, one who has felt weak, and finds strength through a growing infatuation with the legend of Heisenburg. He may end up becoming so obsessed he has to find out everything he can - he finds Saul or Jesse, he entirely estranges himself and holly from the rest of the White family. Heisenburg represents the will to take control. He and holly are both (in different ways) trying to become Walter, and neither know that this figure they are replicating never really existed. (Also if he were to walk into a hat store in season 2 and then in the last season we saw him unboxing and putting on the HB hat, idk that would just be a cool da service moment)
bro it will turn into a generic random netflix teenager show about a sad girl without a dad (so sad 😭)
@@MazdaAntiMilitancia hence the male co-lead.
A Breaking Bad sequel with grown up Holly does possess potential. But i dont want to see her entering the drug trade cause i feel like that would be the exact repeat of Breaking Bad. Maybe she become a detective who try to find out the truth behind her father and maybe somewhere along the way, even teaming up with grown up Brock and find Jesse Pinkman in Alaska or sum
@@johans3164 I mean there’s many routes that it could go, but I don’t think her entering the trade would necessarily repeat BB at anything but the most basic surface level (unless of course you actually did just copy BB)
If they make holly a Griselda Blanco it could be good
I think a fictional documentary about the events of breaking bad and better call Saul would be interesting with interviews from the characters
We literally only need a Gus Fring backstory and we’ll be set. It can include the Salamancas too
I think the mystique around gus is what makes him so special. The amount of questions a new viewer has about him is what keeps him fresh.
didn’t we already get a backstory episode?
@@Cooper69420 i think they want to know about gus's past in Chile
My exact thought. There's so much thats unknown about his character and he has a way bigger backstory than Saul. The choices he made that lead to path of drug empire , his boyfriend/ partner who was the one who knew more about the drug business than Gus at the time , How Gus himself built a super successful empire, the conflicts he faced prior to better call saul/breaking bad , his chicken business, his upbringing. There's just so much they can do with his character. His character deserves a spin off and I agree they can tie the Salamancas rise into the show as well and have 2 different perspectives. Between Gus and the Salamancas.
That could mean hearing Esposito talk in spanish all the time, so no thanks
If there was a Walter Jr. spin-off, I’d imagine that he would use the money that Walter left him to help his mom out. But the show would begin while he is in adulthood as a DEA Rookie. Inspired by his Uncle Hank and fueled by his hatred for his father, wouldn’t be hard to imagine he also used the money to get through cop college or whatever. An imitation of the Blue Sky meth is back and he is appointed as the Lead Investigator. He’s forced into deep cover and gets intel from people who are still alive from Breaking Bad. Maybe he meets Saul again or characters like Huell, Skinny Pete, Badger, and maybe even the children that Gus mentioned he had since they would be teens at this point. 4 Seasons 10 eps each. We could even get an episode Dedicated to Marie Skyler and Holly and see where they are at. An episode about Flynn’s mental state. Being that deep into cover and helping men like his father would have a toll on his mental health. Maybe that causes him to understand what his father was doing like you said in the video an eventually we could get a scene where he’s on Walt’s grave, forgiving him. I dunno that’d be my take on it.
Not bad!
If you really think about it, since Walt Jr was one of the least interesting characters in the series, I wouldn't be surprised if they atleast did something with him to try and get him some respect. I wouldn't be surprised if he over time developed his own version of Hanks personality, since he was so inspired by him
@@AlsoApey that’s what I’m saying!
I could also imagine him wanting to use “Schrader” as his last name just like Skyler started using her maiden name post Heisenberg. Maybe that’s how he gets appointed to the case, since he shares his last name with the late and Great ASAC Schrader and also because of their entire family being so close to the DEA. “They’ll know me, they’ll know my voice.” I would actually like to see it.
@@Adreezy_ bro... With that pitch, that's a fkn s tier. I wouldn't mind if they did that in a couple of years! Only question is, how long would it be? Either way, that's probably my favorite idea so far lol
@@AlsoApeythank you so much! I’ve actually had that theory about Flynn joining law enforcement since the start of Better call Saul. We can only trust Vince to make it tho…
Sounds good until you remember that Walt Jr is handicapped and could never pass the police physical exams.
I really like how Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul have so many interesting characters that could easily get their own spin-off, but I don't want more because it would end up like a cinematic universe type stuff with writers who have already told the story they want.
But there are always more writers.
I’m still holding out for “Francesca, Fring and Flynn”, where these characters open a breakfast restaurant together
I haven't seen anyone recommend a Brock spin off. Wait 10+ years and have Brock join the criminal world all in the hopes of finding Jesse Pinkman and getting closure on what happened to his mom as he was most likely the one who found her body. You can have his journey eventually lead to visiting Saul in jail, confronting Badger and Skinny Pete, and of course ending up in Alaska finding Jesse Pinkman. This is the show I'd want to see.
Id love a spin of that just focuses on how destroyed the world of breaking bad would be with the loss of walt’s blue and no cartel. A bunch of gangs fighting for control in a meth addicted Albuquerque would be amazing
The real story I want to see is the 3AM videos made in the Breaking Bad universe. Imagine someone like JayStation and N&AProductions making a calling Heisenburg at 3AM or don't call Gus Fring at 3AM type of videos. That shit would be hilarious lol

@@grostavious He can’t. Saul’s in jail. If anything, it’s more likely that Saul calls (or emails) Jesse using a JPay kiosk or whatever. (At least, that’s how my friend and I communicate to each other back when he was in prison.)
For the Salamanca spin off I’d imagine that his son was lost to the Mexican Civil war instead of the Great War . It would make more sense since Mexico never got involved with the conflict and would add a sorta cowboy theme to the series
We could probably see Hector’s grandfather if that was the case.
yeah, and vince def has some western inspiration for some things, so it would be cool to see him make an actual western style miniseries
Honestly, I feel the best way for another spinoff is if Holly and Brock got together and tried to piece together the shattered pieces of their family history, with Flynn trying to get her to stop digging in to the past. Bonus points if there's a plot point with them searching for Jessie over rumors he might have fled to Alaska.
Why always ship two characters barely related? Lol
@@zanotellitb5457 Never said they had a romantic relationship, just simply got together in some way.
The main point of having those two is that they are relatively young, so if they make another spin off in another 10-15 years we can get new actors to interact with old favorites coming back for cameos
Fun Idea for a movie but there really isn’t a point to it
Maybe they could visit Saul in jail idk.
Eh. Should let sleeping dogs lie. There's no need for a show to just bring up old shit. It's really just beating a dead horse and looking for Jesse just ruins the whole idea of Jesse getting away from everything that happened. Also uncovering the truth about her family history would be as easy as looking it up on Google. Walt got outed for most of the things he did
Would a prequel of Gus not be the next logical spinoff?? I feel like we were told or shown enough where there's some tangible stories to base your plot around, but enough mystery to play around with and give us answers. It could start at why he left the army. Giving us some flashbacks when he was a kid that explains why he is the way he is. Mostly focusing on giving context as to why he initially wanted to get into the drug business. They can show how Los Pollos Hermanos comes to be. Really building up the relationship between him and his partner. They never come out and say he's homosexual or that they were intimate, but doing some "love of his life" storyline would give context as to why he chose to stay single at his age. Could have the halfway point of the series building up to showing the scene at Don Eladio's where he is killed. Showing the effect that moment changes him from a half way decent person to a complete psychopath hell bent on revenge, that we can further sympathize with. After that it could show how he eventually gets into working with the cartel, since Eladio originally told him to "stick with chicken" and he would be dead too but they know who he is. Then showing the power struggle he has with the Salamanca's that make them hate each other and how they eventually makes his way into America. Could bounce back and forth giving more context to everyone we know in the cartel until you meet them in Better Call Saul. Obviously you probably can't use the same actors which would suck, but I'm sure it would have people's interest regardless.
Check out my previous Breaking Bad video, it's about Gus
I actually really want to see a Huell spinoff.
Huell to me has always been a character with an air of mystery around him. I think there is a lot we don’t know about him, and I think he’s generally more empathetic and down to earth than many other characters.
I am very curious about his life in New Orleans, and I want to know how his relationship with his family and the city is. Usually when characters in BB/BCS move to Albuquerque from far away, like Mike or Jimmy, they had wanted to escape the life of their hometown. I wonder if Huell had fled New Orleans for a reason.
Maybe the series could be about Huell trying to reconcile a broken relationship with his family, while his criminal past in New Orleans starts to catch up with him (and eventually expose his association with Walt). I really think there’s substance here.
better fuell huell!
You have a nice premise with developing the actual backstory of huell more, but I feel like you're looking at this whole thing from the wrong angle.
Huell is inherently a funny character; he walks funny, he talks funny, and he's shaped funny. So, instead of making the show gritty and grim, why not make it a light hearted sitcom? (Think shows like the fresh Prince of bel air, the Bernie mac show, home improvement, etc.) The show could involve huell's day to day life starting some time before the events of better call Saul, with each episode involving a new job. Huell's family should be a focal point of the show, like how it's described here or perhaps something different and wholesome.
It would be nice to have a comedy show in the breaking bad series that isn't slippin' Jimmy, too.
Also this is just a small gripe but Huell's Rules works much better for the title of a show like this.
He could have a potential sitcom
If the first thing you say about a character is "they're a mystery" then any spin off explaining the character will be shit.
Don't any if you learn from things like Solo?
One thing that i've always found a bit weird is that hector is known as "tio"(uncle), he has a bunch of nephews and everything, but out of nowhere he has a grandson (that guy who jesse kills) with no mention of a son or daugther. So for the salamanca show, i think it would be interesting if instead of lall or hector as the main character, we'd have hector's son, who would initially start off as a cartel hitman but would eventually "break good" and either get killed or run away, forced to leave his son behond. But either way, he'd be disowned and completely forgotten by his family. This would give us a nice change from the other shows, as instead of a likeable protagonist slowly becoming more evil, we'd have a protagonist redeeming himself. We'd also have a lot of new backstory and character development for the salamancas, especially hector, since his relantionship with his son would probably be one of the focal points of the show
I always figured that his son, and probably his brothers, got killed during the cartel’s rise. He does say that Salamanca blood built the cartel and it would also explain even more why he hates the feds so much(assuming that it was the them who killed his family members.”
Who did Jesse kill? Hector was Tuco's tio

I think the only thing I think could work would be an El Camino style movie but for Kim Wexler. Where you see how she deals with her past situation and how she chooses to move forward. I realize the ambiguity is kind of the point but hey it worked with Jesse
Better rim Kim
@@guitar_jero 🤤
Kim isn't interesting enough a character without Saul/Jimmy. Honestly, she wasn't one of the best elements of BCS either. Her subplots slowed that show down alot. I don't see anyone(besides whoever was simping for her in the writers room) jonesing for a Kim series
@@MrK2890 I agree. Kim isn’t that interesting enough for me to want a sequel series starring her. We kinda got some sense of her life in Florida anyway, and it seemed dreadfully boring. The only narrative option I think is, now that Kim confessed everything to Howard’s widow, maybe Kim finally feels a weight lifted off her shoulders so that when she returns to her boring life in Florida, it won’t be so boring anymore because Kim finally would finally no longer have what seems like a crippling fear of making decisions.
@@MrK2890 trust me I wasn’t advocating for a series just like a movie, I think it’s something the writers could make interesting. Not that we even need anything else out of this universe anyways. Also I love Kim Wexler I agree with the writer room simp
3:48 Hanks casual racism was banter between two good friends, Hank and Gomez both had multiple times were they’d banter and talk about each others races. It’s just two best friends busting each others balls.
I recently figured this out! Always just thought it was up to interpretation or something lol
Wrong, when interrogating Jessie Hank uses an anti-Chinese slur when talking about a Chinese place. He’s racist.
@@robinnvibreaking bad was released when the world wasn't so soft and people like you didn't exist
He used a slur for Chinese people as well.
@robinnvi Yup. It's crazy how much that characterization weared off little by little in the show's run.
I wouldn't mind like a 20 min episode or short film of Jesse just chilling in Alaska and finding peace
I think you underestimate how good Mike's spinoff could be. Even tho we have a solid understanding of his story I'd love to get into details of his and his son's story, and also I'm curious of what happened to his family after he died. Also considering his incredible skills and experience Mike definitely wasn't just a regular corrupted cop sitting in an office and it would be interesting to see how different was his son. I think this could fit in well in a 10 episodes and I'm way more interested in this story than in Salamanca family's
Also they could create a spinoff where they would give us details of what happened to multiple characters who's story is open ended
I mean you're not wrong. It's fun to imagine the conflicts he got into back in the day, but his son story's already told, and the truth about his family is that nothing really happens to them in the end. The real question is, would people enjoy 10 episodes of Mike doing random stuff. I assume we'd see his son die in the finale or something, so there'd be some time skips. In my opinion, that'd just be filler. I'm sure most people would get a bit bored as it goes on, unless they're into shows like law and order.
@@AlsoApey I wanted to suggest something, a anthology film exploring the world and legacy of walter white. Think sort of like exploring several smaller things I'm thinking like maybe the bell of hector salamanca, like what about doing something like bad luck following it or death following it in the crime world. Maybe do segment in the movie on the two guys that walter white confronted when he said stay out of my territory they seemed kinda like Jesse and Walter copies so imagine a fun story of them trying to make fake blue meth and it blowing up in their faces somehow. I am just throwing a few ideas in here which don't invovle established characters, what about something involving Gus Frings backstory without involving gus fring himself, like, there was no reveal as to what was about Gus Frings past and why don eladio really left him alive back then. Maybe there could be some larger connections in chile that move in when walter white is gone and the cartel is gone, like it could represent how even if you cut the head of a hydra another head pops out. Since it'd be an anthology film it'd also be easy to do several short stories on things you'd like to know like the walter white family maybe some way for Walter JR to find out what really happened. More Badger and Skinny pete. Some Huell and what happened with him. It could be interesting but I think it'd required the self control to be minimalistic, the star of the show should be the world itself. I'm thinking like sin city maybe minus the comic booky stuff.
Mike dies?
@@qsdead yes, he's assassinated and replaced by a kid named finger
@@qsdead prolly should finish BB before interacting with the community
I think a movie about Holly could work really well.
It could be about her under home schooling and wondering what her mother has been hiding from her all these years. Holly starts uncovering the secrets of her families past by the searching about her father on the internet and maybe watching the VHS tape of Skylars baby shower. She could come into contact with the last remaining contributors to Walt’s crimes, maybe biking too Skinny Pete’s house and talking to him. The climax could be Holly running away from home in search of Jesse Pinkman by finding clues.
She looks through Saul Goodmans boxed away belongings and finding the phone number too the guy who smuggled Jesse into Alaska, she then calls the department to find out it is owned by a new person and the previous owner was Edward Galbraith but he’s in a retirement home with only a couple weeks left to live, she gets information out of him that Jesse lives in Alaska so she sneaks into a train heading to Alaska and then searches for Pinkmans cabin. She eventually collapses in the middle of a blizzard since she’s just a little kid but wakes up in Jesses cabin since Pinkman is always good to kids and then we get this discussion about how she got there in the first place and eventually Jesse discusses his relationship with Walt and what he was like. The film ends with Jesse driving Holly back down to Albuquerque, Holly just lying about running away for some false sob story reason and Jesse visits Skinny Pete and Badger one last time.
Its a shame that the guy that played ed passed away in early 2021
I'm obsessed with this idea, and Filthy Weeaboo's like holy shit these sound great
You know what one day I might just say fuck it and write something stealing these ideas like aaaaaaaaaaaaa I love them
@@leoburnand1173 2019
Good idea but Holly should not be able to do all of that as a “little kid” as a teenager sure.
@@eliminator1472 jesse would be soooo pissed
Jesse and Holly are the only characters in this series with any story left to tell IMO. Jesse because, even though he made it to Alaska, we don't know how he makes a new life there, and Holly just because she's a blank slate.
I think a Jesse series could work, but I think you're right that it would be very tonally different from what came before. Then again, who knows. We all expected Better Call Saul to just be an episodic comedy.
As for Holly, I think it would be cool to see where she ended up, but a series starring her could very easily end up being contrived.
I think she goes down a bad path, personally. With Skyler and Flynn so broken, I think she'd have little support at home, and maybe she grows up morbidly fascinated by Walt's criminal legacy. But realistically, she just ends up as another teen making some bad choices. I don't think there's enough there to do more than maybe a movie.
I think a miniseries at most could happen, but I honestly feel like anything relating to the Breaking Bad series would just feel forced and lose the fanbase.
I'd like to think that Jesse is working as a carpenter. Living in the outskirts of his little town and fixing up everything from doors to tables and chairs. Maybe he even settles down with a wife and kids
Okay: here's a perfect spin off: Jesse is an adult getting by in Alaska. All the while anxiety about how he left things is eating him up, he's wondering how Skinny Pete, Badger, Kaylee Ehrmantraut are doing, and he decides that the search for him has died down enough to pay a visit. He takes a trip to Albuquerque, while he's making sure Mike's family is doing well and sees that they aren't doing well so he tries to find a way to get them money. Then a zombie apocalypse happens, in all the chaos Kaylee's mom dies and Jesse saves Kaylee's life and he also then saves Holly's life, then they run away together trying to make it back up to alaska because zombies don't do well in the cold and it's low population would mean few zombies, during the journey Jesse and Kaylee & Holly develop a father daughter relationship, Jesse becomes the father Kaylee and Holly didn't have, and Kaylee becomes they become the daughters Jesse never had. Jesse struggles in the apocalypse to make sure he redeems himself by taking care of Holly and Kaylee and never letting another person be taken away from him. Basically Last of Us but Breaking Bad.
Okay the zombie part is kinda stupid, but if we get over that part I think that show would be awesome and way better than the Last of Us tv show that is coming.
Maybe a comic with holly would be good
@@LaloSalamancaGaming69 I like it. We can title it "Badly Broken."
We need a 30 minute short film of all the Salamanca’s eating dinner together.
Lalo and tuco cooking
A Salamanca spin off would be awesome!! It would need to be WAY in the past and show how the family helped to build the cartel
I’d love a short anthology series about some of the BCS/BB side characters with like 20-30 minute episodes. The ones that I’d like to see are Gale, Skinny Pete/Badger, the veterinarian, or anything involving the cartel right when Gus first gets involved. Nothing big, but just little snippets of their past or futures.
The two brilliant ideas I’ve had (and posted elsewhere) for BB/BCS spin-offs:
1) After Gretchen & Elliot decide that Walt was bluffing about having paid hit men to ensure that Flynn gets the money, they do indeed Welch on the agreement. The only problem is that Badger & Skinny Pete have somehow manage to convince themselves that this means they are, indeed now obligated to hunt down & kill them, and proceed to hatch numerous convoluted plots to fulfill their “contract”, with much wackiness ensuing.
2) Philadelphia, early 1980’s: a young (but somehow still grizzled) Mike Ehrmantraut is a rookie cop in the middle of wrestling with a moral dilemma when suddenly a wormhole opens up and spits out a time machine made from the carcass of an old, shot-up Suzuki Esteem, from which emerges a 60-something Jimmy McGill (having managed to reduce his prison sentence to a mere 20 years or so) babbling incoherently about a “Bad Choice Road” Young Mike is somehow convinced to join up with Old Jimmy as together they travel through time & space helping people to choose a better path in their lives, somewhat reminiscent of Quantum Leap.
(Obviously, these are not serious proposals. I’m assuming None of the ideas here are really serious, as they’re all ridiculously unnecessary at best.
Ok, but Pete and Badger trying and failing to assassinate people does sound funny.
don't you dare say these that these gems are not serious proposals!
@@spookzer16 this idea would be a great comedy show.
The 1st one is the best idea ever
He has us in the first half, not gonna lie
I had the pleasure of getting to see RJ Mitte at a panel several years ago, and he's such a cool dude! Hes advocating for the handicapped (in and out of Hollywood) in a big way and using his platform to make the world a better place. Legit! While I'd like to see what happened to Walt Jr., I think it might be the same story as the actor himself! Using what he has to help his community.
I met RJ a few months ago. Genuinely a great dude, I want to grab a beer with him lol
"Keeping up with the Salamancas" - a reality show-type minisodes with all the Salamanca family members just talking and interacting would be dope af
Honestly, in terms of these characters, I’d say Holly is the most interesting in that she is a clean, blank slate as a character. And if you think her thing is done as a movie or as a miniseries or limited series, I think that’s a decent idea.
Here’s my idea:
Skyler had her plea deal with the feds, but it’s never actually established what that deal actually is. You can use this as a way to get things to where Holly is at an age where you can tell the story, which can start with Skyler being released from prison or adjusting to life outside prison. Or you could have it where Holly lives with Marie and regularly visits Skyler.
Another thing you could set up is where Marie, Skyler, or both of them are slowly working to move on from the events of BB/BCS, namely with something like either of them dating and the new guy taking a new father figure role to Holly, be it Holly having a kind of mentor in an interest she has, or a marriage so Holly’s stepdad would take the role Walt would have had he lived longer and didn’t tear everything apart, if only to keep things from getting TOO depressing.
I’d say the conflict would come from Skyler not approving of something Holly has an interest in because she’s afraid of her ending up like Walt (I’m not sure if you could add Gretchen and Elliot into this, but I think an inciting incident would be the reveal of the fact that Flynn’s money he received came from Walt’s coercing).
Eventually, the thing that’ll make the story may not be Holly’s rebellion, but instead be from Skyler in that she comes to grips that she’s not only lying to Holly about who Walt, her biological father, actually was (even if it’s by omission), but also to herself in regards to her actions in Breaking Bad in laundering Walt’s money with the car wash and her affair with Ted, resulting in two truths that she can’t run from, even if she took a plea deal and went back to her maiden name: she was a willing participant in the Heisenberg enterprise and she also contributed to the family being as dysfunctional as it is.
And while Holly will only see “not being supported in certain things” since she probably can’t comprehend the direct actions of Walt outside of what she’s told or reads about (MAYBE you can bring up the kidnapping saga), and you could turn that into getting increasingly frustrated at not getting straight answers from Skyler or Marie or Flynn in regards to Walt, only getting the same stock responses she’s been getting for years like “he was a teacher” and “he died when you were a baby”. And again, you could just have it be where Holly feels she has no support from her family in what she does, even if she doesn’t know about the full exploits of the one called Heisenberg.
Eventually, at the end, Skyler, and maybe Marie and Flynn, realize that holding onto their resentment toward Walt, his actions, and the man he became could result in Holly, probably one of the few truly innocent people in the Heisenberg saga, hating them and that it won’t undo the damage caused like the death of Hank. So we can end it with Skyler and the family finally accepting the things Holly wants to do with her life, along with some talk about “using her powers for good” and it finally brings the story to the two things I find you can take away from this universe and narrative: 1. You are the master of your own fate and 2. The decisions you make are yours and yours alone, and you’re the only one that truly holds responsibility for your actions and their consequences.
So what do you think ?
It's an interesting concept. I feel like Marie and Skyler would never repair their relationship after Hank's death. I got the vibe during their last phone call that that was probably one of the first times they had even spoken since Holly's kidnapping.
I still think we need *one* more installment in the universe, specifically: what the fuck happened in Chile that gave Gus such deep-seated respect for Peter Schuler?
I find the Salamancas spinoff really interesting. Hector mentioned before having the stroke that a lot of Salamanca blood was spilled in order to build the drug empire.
We know that Hector is the uncle of Tuco, the twins and Lalo, but we never hear anything about their parents.
So this spinoff or at least one season of it should be devoted to hector and his siblings building the empire and ending with their death, probably in a fight with a rival group or family. We see Hector lose everyone and become the bitter old man that teaches his nephews that family is the most important thing.
They should make a 1 season show about Jesse when he was in high school
I love the idea of a fake podcast with badger and skinny pete just talking about dumb stuff
I feel like a spinoff about how gus built up los pollos hermanos would be a good spinoff with it starting with him in chile and building his restaurant chain, met max, and it explaining why he decided to go into the business with the cartel
we also need an episode dedicated to gus and max making out
Let's not forget that Gus used to teach Gale. Maybe we could learn about Gus teaching.
A Walter White spinoff would be cool.
That’s called breaking bad
bro watched Better saul first before breaking bad
Yeah man I always wondered what Walt did after Breaking Bad, his character just had sooooo much more room for exploration.
@@nori87can't blame him, Better saul was really a show of all time
A sequel show about badger and Skinny Pete getting in over their heads in the crime world could work. Possibly there was a clue as to where Todd's uncle Jack hid the 80 mil in the El Camino Jesse left. Perhaps it could have a more comedic bend.
A breaking bad mockumentary would be fucking amazing
What about a show about Gus? I think he is one of the most interesting characters/villains in the show and in Breaking Bad and in Better Call Saul we got a little insight in his past. A show about his past in Chile, how he met Maxwell and how he got into the business would probably work very well.
I feel like Better Call Saul was kind of his spin off show
Someone probably said the same when Better Call Saul was announced.
I thought that, but BCS is an absolutely masterpiece
Me and my friends came up with a pretty good concept (At least, in my opinion) for a Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul spin-off show. The name we gave the concept was "Aftermath," and for good reason. Basically, you know how Better Call Saul touched on the effects of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul on side characters, like Francisca and Huell? Now, obviously, a show about Huell cannot work, as you pointed out, so, what can we do? Well, the idea is a single season, idk how many episodes, of Aftermath. Each episode focuses on a character or a group of characters post-Breaking Bad. So, one episode could be showing off what really happens to Kim after BCS, one could be a small redemption arc for Huell, one could be about Francesca struggling to make a living with the cops on her back, one could be a slice of life with Jesse in Alaska, maybe even featuring the main conflict as him trying to move on from the PTSD left over, one could be all about the White family trying to free themselves from the reputation Walt left for them, etc. You get the point. It'd basically be like an anthology series all set in the BB/BCS universe, dealing with the aftermath of everything on some characters who weren't really touched on, hence the name.
hmm i do like this idea, but i am not sure how that would actually work. Most characters after the events of El Camino is either dead or have just settled down. I can't really see how that would be very interesting or exciting. Maybe it could kind of work if done correctly and with a lot of finesse. But i still can't see how that would work with the same feel and atmosphere that BCS and BB gives us. While El Camino is a great movie, even that failed to reproduce that iconic BB feel and atmosphere.
Except that all the characters you mentioned specifically GET their resolutions and there is zero reason for us to revisit them. It's just redundant
AfterMETH.
I want to unironically suggest at least a movie (but ideally a miniseries) about Walter Jr. coming to terms with his horrible upbringing and trying to be a good role model for Holly knowing that as she grows up those are hard to come by. Maybe he finds love but that’s a much less important factor for this idea to work. It could be interesting to see what happens to the family before and after Saul’s trial, and we could see how Gretchen and Elliot giving them Walt’s money is handled. I think there’s potential. The main problem I see with the idea is a distinct lack of action, it would be very character driven, but it could be neat.
(Also if we ever got another prequel, I think a Nacho based tragedy would be a more interesting route than a Salamanca show because a Salamanca show gives us no one to root for)
the phrase “nacho based tragedy” sounds funny out of context
@@actuallyyashley nacho cheese killed my mother, not funny.
(joke)
If there is going to be any sequel thing with Walt Jr., then I demand to see him tracking down Jesse and visiting him up in Alaska so that he can get more details on his father’s death and thus gain more closure.
@@mechadoggy a fellow Jesser enthusiast
@@Defectum138 Yes, I am a Jesse enthusiast since I find him to be a very sympathetic character who carries a lot of pathos. The BB spin-off I would prefer is simply one that follows Jesse’s adventures in Alaska. There are a variety of different possible plotlines for this sequel series:
First of all, there is obviously the intense psychological turmoil that Jesse has to face within himself. Hopefully, he’ll find someone whom he can trust and open up to so that he will finally heal from all his past trauma. (That actually happens in this Breaking Bad fanfic called The Last Frontier where Jesse goes to a bar in Alaska and meets this redheaded woman who introduces him to everyone around town.)
Plus, there can still be drug rings around Alaska. Jesse very likely would never be willing to get involved with them himself but could potentially get caught up with them, especially if there’s a rescue plot involved with one of Jesse’s loved ones. (That happens in this fanfic called Alaska by Liym Enello which is about Jesse falling in love with this blonde woman who gets caught up with the local drug ring, so Jesse has to go rescue her from her kidnappers.)
There’s also the matter of Walt Jr or Skyler or even Marie wanting to track down Jesse and get more details about Walt’s and Hank’s deaths so as to get more closure.
Jesse’s brother Jake can go potentially track down Jesse since he kinda looks up to him.
Finally, I always wondered if Jesse could adopt the redheaded Peekaboo boy out of the foster care system and raise him (or at least marry a woman who’s willing to adopt that boy, if there are too many legal hurdles for Jesse to adopt).
A series where it's just jesse living a normal life in Alaska, and it's a sitcom instead a Drama would be funny.
I think a short series about Jesse just living a happy life in Alaska with no interruptions would be nice for the character, seeing as he’s never really been able to live a peaceful life in breaking bad
Naw
Nah bro that would be hella boring, plus we already have El Camino so we're good.
but a show with no conflict is nothing show-worthy at all, and lord knows jesse doesn't need any more conflict
@@chernobylolita true, maybe it should be just like a 5 minute short instead
La La Land but Jesse Pinkman
So the general consensus is that most of these shows wouldn’t really have enough to work with and turn into a full show? then maybe an anthology would work which would show us more insight into different characters backgrounds to really flesh out their characters and give people what they want without making an unfulfilling show on one character who’s arc is pretty much done
I like to think Jesse has a cottage close to the mountains, and trees. He has his own workshop, he has a little business, but it’s more helping the community, he’s not popular. Just a random guy crafting wood.
I'm thinking do Gus's entire life story. Gotta admit, his backstory is pretty insane and has TONS of loopholes. The character in general has a ton of loopholes. All we know is he's evil, he's a genius, and built an empire over 20 years to exact revenge. And also, Walt was the only person on earth able to kill him.
I feel like a Jesse show would mainly be about him dealing with his PTSD and trying to live a stable life like you said, but I would also like to see an emotional scene where he meets his faimily again, more specifically his little brother. I generally feel like another Jesse show/movie would be very depressing due to his PTSD, depression, and his low mental stability.
Here's an idea: Call it _A Stable Life_ , and it's about him working literally in a stable with horses or mules. And he *thinks* one of them talks to him! Get the irony?
TEDucation: Theodore "Ted" Beneke's own spinoff set before he became the owner and president of Beneke Fabricators. In this eight seasons long series, we follow how Ted was actually part of the Salamanca cartel long before the events of Better Call Saul. We also get to know some interesting backstories, for example about Lyle's childhood and how Gus got his first glasses.
Maybe instead of an entire series about Gus Fring's past, they could just make a movie, like "Pollos Hermanos" a Better Call Saul Movie
just an hour of gus slowly losing his shit filing paperwork till he evnetually screams and eaves ending the movie
Honestly, I can see the Flynn show happening. I would love a one to two season mini series about the repercussions Walt left on his family, and Flynn being involved in gangs in later years by force. He begins to start taking the path Hank did and busts the operation from the inside, but learns the horrific experiences both the criminals and those who take care of them have to go through.
Maybe, if it were to be longer, Walt Jr. decides to join the DEA. “I would rather take gallons of pain like that than let someone else take an ounce of it.” He rises up the ranks and some other drug operations are busted until he gets sent to Alaska to investigate sightings of a man who seems to be Jesse Pinkman, and he finds him. They get in a scuffle, but in the end, they have a conversation. Walt Jr. figures out the two are incredibly alike, due to… well, you can guess. Flynn would resign his position in the DEA and let Jesse live his life, stating he “couldn’t let himself finish what he started” to Skyler, who would be against her son taking a position in law enforcement, since she wants to leave any part of that life behind.
a scuffle?? bro he can't walk without a walking stick
@@toxpov3612 Flynn's actor (RJ Mitte) has cerebral palsy in real life and he only needed walking sticks when he was younger. His legs became stronger as he was growing up and now he can use his legs to full extent. So canonically it's 100% possible that his legs recover and he's able to have the DEA job.
Honestly I think you’re underestimating a kim show, it could take place RIGHTTTTT after she breaks up with jimmy, it could explore her new life in Florida and exactly how dull it is
And maybe the last season could be post-saul gone or something
There's a few good Kim Movie suggestions in these comments which I really like
First ep of the kim spinoff drops and its just 45 minutes of kim getting yupped by yup guy.
Idk, i'd love to see a Mike show set in the 60s/70s where he's figuring it all out and becoming a badass.
I want a Badger and Skinny Pete show that's just them talking about zombie video games and Star Trek for 5 seasons.
I think this cinematic universe still has a lot to give us. Even when thinking about better call saul I thought he wasn't interesting enough, but they were able to turn it into an epic even greater than the original. What you seem to be missing is that these stories would never be standalones. In BCS they put together Saul's backstory, Gus' backstory, and Mike's in a way that made it as great as it is. In the same way If a Walt jr show had him a few years later in his late 20s moving to alaska for work and interacting with Jesse, as they slowly befriend each other and some inciting incident ends up with Walt figuring it out. At the same time we could have some associate of the Nazis that found a lead on Jesse and is coming for him. Something like this definitely has the potential to be just as good or at least capture the feeling of the first shows. A spinoff that sees us exploring Gus's very early years, as well as Hector, Bolsa, and Eladio starting the business and young salamancas like Lalo as kids, seeing triggering events that led to what they are. A young Hank could also lose a mentor while pursuing the cartel, never finding out exactly who did it, but making him hate latinos, as well as reinforcing the way in which everyone was so happy in breaking bad when the twins died. These are the first 2 ideas for shows that came out of my mind and they can surely be great if Vince Gilligan and his team are ever willing to work on the franchise again.
Those are very good ideas! I think you're right, the spin offs need to focus on more than one character to be worth existing. I do think that with Gus, he's been a bit over used and we already have had 2 development arcs in a way from him, in breaking bad and BCS. I also believe that BCS wouldn't be the show that it is without having the post breaking bad plot with Jimmy in Nebraska. A lot of other spin offs featuring dead characters can't do that, since, you know, they're dead lol. There's still ways to develop a dead character even more, but for me personally, Gus shouldn't ever come back. I like a lot of the other ideas that people have come up with though
@@AlsoApey yeah I get the Gus fatigue too, if he was ever to come back I'd like to see him as a final season introduction to a show like the Salamanca prequel, just getting to see him spending a few good episodes with his friend/boyfriend, and understanding why they got into the business.
Ok I wasn't sold on any Walt Jr spin-off ideas until this one. This one I can see fitting cohesively in the universe and seems like a natural next step for the characters. Put in some of that Vince magic to create new lovable characters and a story around that and that low key sounds fire af🔥.
I think it would be good if they did a spin off which basically is all these ideas but they essentially have 1-3 episodes on each story
And it would be like a 16 (give or take) episode show. I really would like to see what happens to Walt’s daughter, like it’s pretty obvious what happened to skyler and Walt jr, but holly? Does she know, if not how does she find out? She never met Walt properly and if she does remember him she would only have good memories because of how Walt acted around her
I agree accept Hank needs his own separate show. This is because the only thing you could add to Hank's story that we don't already know is by creating a show for people who don't releaze it's a Breaking Bad Show (or don't know what breaking bad is) and creating the twist ending that Walter is the Heisenberg all along.
I just want so bad a Gus Series, explaining what happened in Chile (we can use the actor of The Boys of young Giancarlo, is so perfect for the role of young Gus)
I've thought about that too, he's a good actor
Nobody's talking about how there's a Jeff Dahmer telling me which breaking bad spinoff wouldn't work
actually multiple people have already said that loll
Wonder if they could make a short show about an “obsessed fan” with the Heisenberg case. Someone who’s making a “documentary” for himself and trying to find each one (Jesse, saul, mike, etc) after the whole incident to interview. With it, it can end in the “obsessed fan” being able to possibly gather information on the location of bodies like Howard, etc. Possibly bringing closure to the families and to us viewers.
you seem to have forgotten mike died
@@Can-Do_Studios I know Mike died. But he was never located or discovered. Someone looking from the outside in would try to find him, not knowing that he’s dead.

I think a cool idea for a breaking bad spin off is the series framed from the perspective of a documentary or book written from the perspective of a 3rd party. Or a memoir from Saul Goodman or something like that, either written directly by the character or a ghost writer.
It would be interesting to have a series with only one season, each episode about 20 minutes long, each using one of the examples mentioned in the video and in the comments, for example:
1. An episode about Walt Jr. and how he joined the DEA inspired by his uncle
2. About Skyler and how she struggles to overcome grief and the crimes she was involved in
3. An episode of pure comedy with Badger and Skinny Pete talking nonsense
4. A quiet and calm episode, about how Jesse lives in Alaska in peace
5. A comedic episode about Huell
6. A nostalgic episode with Holly and Kaylee meeting and talking about the past
7. An episode showing how the Salamancas empire came about, showing Hector's great achievements
8. A random episode with Ed, showing him disappearing with real-world celebrities for funny reasons
I feel like the holly movie could be really good if the story is when she is a adult she tries to find out what happened to her dad and revisiting old characters such as badger or even visiting walter’s cabin in Alaska
Walter's cabin was in New Hampshire, not Alaska lol
Hmm, I could definitely see Holly going up to Alaska and visiting Jesse to try to get more details about her father and get more closure.
I thought about a prequel with Nacho. By the time we get to know his character he’s in too deep and the ramifications of his choices are already in route to destroy him. But what about his past. How did HE of all people get in close with the Salamancas? And Tuco’s right hand man no less. What atrocities did he commit to earn their trust? What put him on the path in the first place seeing as his father was a good man that managed to instill some good in him? What was the initial fallout when he told his father? Where’s his mother? Did he join the underworld to help his family and got in too deep? These are questions worth exploring in my opinion
He’s only really close with Tuco before BCS. I don’t think Nacho even meets the other Salamancas until then. And although he’s a Salamanca, Tuco isn’t that far up the hierarchy, so it probably wouldn’t take much to get in with him. At least not anything interesting enough to make a show out of.
I just finished Breaking Bad today (loved it) and i knew about Better Call Saul, but when I saw the thumbnail I thought all of those were real things lmfao the disappointment when reality hit 😭
lol I wouldn't be surprised if they one day were
I really want "show your thing Fring" to happen!
Honestly, I think way down the road a Holly White spinoff could work. She grows up without a father, knowing the horrible criminal he was, but looks up to her Uncle Hank as a hero and aspires to be a DEA agent like him. She's a bit temperamental and can go rogue at times, which can be a character trait of hers seeing as she did grow up with a stable father figure and knew about all the horrible things her father did, and inherited some of Walter's ego as well.
It can be kinda like The Shield, where Holly White is a Vic Mackey type of law enforcement officer that sometimes goes too far.
Yes but ngl, It would be weird seeing a sequal of Breaking bad where the main character is morally good.
A KIM MOVIE! switching between her past and future of becoming a lawyer again. You know the creators are able to switch between timelines seamlessly
The two Kim flashbacks could absolutely be built upon, I’m not saying I want this but if a movie was made on Jesse, why not Kim? After them crossing paths in season 6 you can see so many parallels there
Prequels for the BB universe is getting increasingly harder to achieve because most of these actors are between 60-85.
Hector is 83 in the real world
Tuco is 61
Don Eladio is 65
Walt is 66
Mike is 75
Saul is 60
Gus is 64
Perhaps they should just make a comedy with them all in a retirement home and call the show Breaking Bingo. lol
They could use deepfake AI
I could actually see the retirement home idea work as some little sketch or something
@@tomfoolery3847 Yeah, for sure. When I cracked the bingo joke, I was being somewhat serious which is why I said it would make a good comedy/spoof because they could still all play their characters from BB, it would make a good sketch or mini series while obviously not being canon.
I do think that a Salamanca spin-off could potentially work if Vince wanted to go that route but I feel like he would need to recast some of the family members. Someone mentioned using a deepfake for it and while that can work to a certain extent, I remember when I watched The Irishman that every old man in the movie portraying someone young, looked extremely stiff because they are filming old men with young men bodies. I also felt a weird sadness seeing all the actors again as them younger selves because for some reason, de-aging them is a massive reminder of just how much time has passed and it makes watching it sad, at least that is how i felt while watching The Irishman. lol
I'm surprised no one talked about the veterinarian that had the list of names of different contacts, that seems more viable than heuls rule or minerals.
I thought what about Jesse starts a family in Alaska, then maybe his son starts getting involved with the wrong crowd and Jesse takes up an opposite role to Walter and similar to Hank. He's trying to clean up the community from the shadows without getting the police on his trail while doing it all so his son or daughter doesn't make the same mistakes he did. He is forced to come to terms with his own past, gets some perspective on Walters decisions and met with some of the same of the decisions Walter had to make, he chooses the better path for his family.
Honestly, I would love to see a series of very short vignette specials of minor characters Walt, Saul, and Jesse knew reacting to the national news about their criminal empire. The film kids working in Hollywood as PAs and seeing their old lawyer buddy as the criminal accomplice of the country's biggest meth kingpin. The air force captain, now a commander, seeing 'the wheel finally turn' on Jimmy. Walt's students in college seeing goofy Mr. White as an infamous criminal legend. That kind of thing; it'd be interesting to see their reactions.
"I don't know if anyone considered this one serious" bro they are all just memes💀💀💀💀💀
If you've read the amount of comments I read, then you'd know only one of them was a meme lmao. Though they were most likely a vocal minority, I still felt like I should discuss em
Minerals, Huell's Rules/Better Fuel Huell, Breaking Bad 2: Return of Flynn and Better Rim Kim are all memes, but I've seen tons of people unironically asking for a Mike prequel or a Salamanca prequel.
I feel like the Gus one would actually work Quite well. Gus definitely has biggest backstory of all the breaking bad main characters. Far more than saul. So much about him is unknown. How he got into the business with the cartel , his upbringing and choices/ decisions that lead him to that path. More about his boyfriend/partner who was the one who knew more about the drug business in beginning before his death, about his chicken business, about how he created his drug empire to get to the point it got all by himself. There's just so much they can do with his character. I'm not saying it needs to be 5 seasons but then doing a season or 2 on Gus would be great and I feel they can also tie the Salamancas rise in the show and show there side. So you'll see Gus as main character with cameos from some other breaking bad characters such as Mike. Then you'll see the Salamancas rise with characters such as Hector , Tuco, Lalo and the Twins and there rise. There's definitely conflicts both sides had to get through to get to where they got prior to everything in better call saul/breaking bad. Maybe two 10-12 episode seasons showcasing those characters most importantly Gus and his rise i feel would do very well.
If they were to continue this universe in any way I’d only want it to be through a movie or some short films, similar to Marvel’s new “special presentations”.
Give us a 40-60 minute short film about Flynn, Skyler, Marie and Holly a decade on, even just to show them rebuilt and reassure us that in the end they’ll be okay - or perhaps a more dramatic tale, I’ve always wondered what would happen if Flynn or Skyler found out where Gretchen and Elliot’s donation came from...
There’s plenty of other stories and characters than can be explored in a short form piece, what happened to Kim could be a 20 minute ambiguous but hopefully look at her getting her life on track, a 10 minute short about Stacey and Kaylee after Mike’s death even, perhaps a quick half hour look into one of the legendary Salamanca hits.
None of these are really necessary, if I had to pick on it would be a 45 minute exploration of the White family 10-15 years on reconciling the legacy of Heisenberg and their push to move forward and become a family again. If they were to expand in this way though, I just hope they wouldn’t touch Jesse or Gus as their stories are done
Not bad at all. I prefer these ideas over the ones which would feature an entire season that's as long as BCS season 1, just to cover a singular plot point lol
I think with Holly they could do a decent or good show with her growing up wanting to find out more about her father so one day she asks Skyler about it and while she is drunk she reveals that her father was a drug dealer. Then Holly would go search for more so she would met an older skinny Pete and Badger for answers. They get some leads and they mention that Jesse was the only one alive who was with Walter all along and that the only thing left from him in Alberquerque was the letter for Brock. She finds Brock and they decide to get answers so they go in search of Jesse Pinkman. When they find him he starts telling them both what happened and at the end Brock can get revenge for his mother or simply let go of Pinkman and forgive him for everything. They would both leave Jesse. This would be kinda boring but it would be the best ending.
I believe the best option for a breaking bad sequel/prequel is an anthology show where we jump around from character to character across the recent history of the breaking bad universe.
Basically, just clone wars but in the breaking bad universe
Jesse’s show wouldn’t work at all because both the ending of breaking bad, and el Camino, they ended his story.
If there were a holly I would imagine her trying to find out who Walter was (sorta assuming that jr and skyler don’t mention or talk about him) where she goes back to albaqurcie to find he was a meth cook but ends up looking for his associates for more info and we get cameos from Saul Jesse skinny Pete badger huel and others
My thoughts for the Jesse in alaska would be that Jesse attempts to reset his life by finding a temporary job willing to pay him under the table, and collecting the money he needs to set up life as an Alaskan Bushman. He would then run into other people helped by Ed Galbraith, many of them talking about the people they used to be before fleeing. The show could have some potential, including creating new characters and forging new relationships.
the salamancas won’t work anymore because hectors actor sadly passed away. RIP
i love how seriously he takes the memes💀
