The Student Filmmakers that Jimmy always complains about but still never fails to hire whenever he needs a job are an underrated part of the show. I really hope we see them again in season 6
Man, it's even better then that. They have worked with him a few times now and she always comes across as so nice. So for her to be the one to do it, seems so in character and not just a one dimensional thing... She actually likes working for/with Jimmy! So many other shows would have her be a one off character that does this and honestly... would you care about some guy you just met down on his luck you were meant to get paid for? It really wouldn't make as much sense or have as much meaning. This show kills it time and time again in the little details.
I almost feel bad that Jimmy chose to pursue the law instead of pursuing filmmaking and advertising. It’s something he’s clearly passionate about and he’s really good at. If he started going into advertising instead of law, Chuck woulda never felt betrayed and nah have even been proud of him.
true, but Jimmy always looked up to Chuck and wanted to be just like him. And he achieved his dream and became a lawyer through true hard work. Sure, he didn't have a fancy diploma but he did it. The least Chuck could have done is give him advice and tons of network connections to start his own career somewhere else. Jimmy's fault in life is that his heart was misplaced. He sought approval and never gave a thought as to what his true passions were. Its why he didn't come to obvious conclusion that despite Chuck being his brother, Chuck would never accept Jimmy as a peer. He was blind to the fact that Chuck would always view him as a two-bit crook that always took the easy way out or looked for the most effective but shady way to make a buck. Chuck is to blame as well, since he gave Jimmy a self-fulfilling prophecy type of treatment, "the more I treat you like ____, the more you will act and become a ______"
lol weren't they actually college teachers? In the mid season finale episode, we saw the grumpy camera guy teaching his class. Idk about the others but I assumed its the same.
@@skighte4256 really? I remembered him specifically saying to Jimmy that he disrupted his teaching class. Plus where I'm from, i don't think a student can just up and leave the class whenever they want. i might be wrong tho, if so my bad.
I know it wasn’t one of the films, but my favorite of the film students is when they manufactured the elaborate scheme to prove Huell’s innocence, and the lawyer calls the “church” and you hear a nice old lady, and then you cut to it being Makeup Girl and everyone huddled around the phones. I love this series and I was surprised I loved these guys so much lol.
This is bizarre to mention. But in case any of you people work, wearing a harness like that billboard man. When suspended, you have approximately 5 minutes before passing out. You must contact someone within this time or you're bound to die from a violent loss of blood circulation. I was in construction for 2 years and didn't know about it till a couple months ago. Stay safe out there everybody.
*edit* This is my most liked comment ever. Thanks everyone. I'm happy to see that we all could find something relatable about Bob Odenkirk's performances in BCS & BB. This franchise makes me happy to say that I lived to see it make it to the air. RIP Robert Forster, and to anyone who unfortunately didn't get the chance to see BCS's series finale or the BB movie. My original comment is below this. Bob Odenkirk is a one man show. He easily captivates and pulls me in every one of these scenes. I especially like the one where he's coaching the amateur actors on what to do when they're on camera.
@@divyjain123456 I mean, Odenkirk has also directed several shows and films, on his own and also wrote for several shows, including Saturday Night Live. So he definitely has the experience needed to actually coach people, even if these scenes were clearly scripted.
Was almost cast in the plaid shirt guy's role at 4:31 - did a whole audition as featured background - then they found out I had already been on that season and quietly rescinded the offer lol
I think Jimmys film crew deserves more credit than they get. like sure they're not the most enthusiastic people in the world, but at least they don't slack off and they know when to hustle when they have to. I'd be fine with a crew like that
What is really amazing is how the same people (film visuals, acting, audio, etc.) at the same time shoot cinema genius and then cut seamlessly to cheesy late night TV adds. How do they get it look so bad and awkward, its amazing.
The film student's make some quality commercials, and yet by BB, Saul has that low budget "Im Saul Goodman, did you know that you have rights?" commercial airing regularly
Whether or not anyone knows where it originally came from, it's been quoted in so many other things that it's just a meme at this point. I can't imagine anyone having never heard any iteration of the line.
I love that they included the pizza bit. Jim Breuer has an infamous video (fake, of course) of him flipping out on the set of a commercial when none of the crew would let him eat the prop pizza.
This reminds me so much of the spoof commercials he did when he would worked on "Tom Goes to the Mayor" on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. They did great spoofs of local TV ads for small businesses.
Anyone remember the X-Files spinoff called "The Lone Gunman"? There TOTALLY needs to be a Better Call Saul spinoff featuring these student filmmakers. I already have a title in mind: "The Lone Gunmen: ABQ". Vince Gill: Make This Happen!!
My theory is that film students asked for a pay increase and Jimmy (by then already Saul Goodman) sent them packing and found some shady characters on Craigslist and that how we got the legendary Better Call Saul commercials.
Love the Makeup girl. She flits around the actor applying makeup while encouraging them to make this face or that face meanwhile Jimmy is totally ignoring her while coaching a poorly paid actor. All of the scenes with the UNM students are hilarious.
What, that small business owners and entrepreneurs are kept out of legitimate business avenues by larger corporate entities (Chuck) that will use the law to sabotage their success, if the complete monopoly they have didn't already cripple them? Yeah, I'd say it's something of a possible allegory
The Student Filmmakers that Jimmy always complains about but still never fails to hire whenever he needs a job are an underrated part of the show. I really hope we see them again in season 6
We probably will
their scenes are so fun
I love em. Especially during huels trial
I want some names for them too, their characters deserve that
Honestly as a film student they’re so fucking accurate too.
The girl that’s with them is so innocent, When she tried to give Jimmy his money back really shows that not everyone is a bastard.
Man, it's even better then that. They have worked with him a few times now and she always comes across as so nice. So for her to be the one to do it, seems so in character and not just a one dimensional thing... She actually likes working for/with Jimmy!

@@spearofconquest well said, well said
And Chuck would of lived longer, considering his suicide was because of Jimmy's law pursuit.
Well, Jimmy's talent is selling/telling stories. He has being a lawyer, seller, director etc. Anything related and he has a very bright future on it.
@@hayemiranda7647 his whole deal is to create a show
Jimmy bonds better with the film crew than Walter does with his family.
Walter's bond with his family is non-existent lmao.
OMG 3:15 They're using her stair lift as a Dolly for the camera. This is the best show ever made.
Never noticed that. This show truly rewards you on re-watches
I never realised that lmao
Those are some damn smart filmmakers for college students
They're gonna make it someday lmao
@@dhan07404 C'mon, you know that had to be all Jimmy
I might me out of this joke, but doesn’t the show make it clear that they use the chair lift as a dolly
The film students are great, I hope they are the ones who helped Saul make those commercials in Breaking Bad.
That would be too perfect
Do you know you have rights?
Be funny too, if because of their connection they are now in demand guys for filming commercials even venturing to bigger markets.
@@Ozymandias83 the constitution says you do!
@@jmanuelvillalobos4971 and so do I
Jimmy didn't even realize he had an alternate career as a commercials director
And actor
3:38
"That's not a real tear, is it?"
"It's Visine"
Always gets me
Maybe it's Valvoline?
I genuinely love the film students. I hope in Breaking Bad they’ve graduated and have had fulfilling careers

I like how the students don't have too many lines yet the powerfully communicate who and how each is

They fit the early 2000s late-night commercial vibe to a T lol
@@domskillet5744 true, I mean the series takes place in 2004, obviously it wasn’t perfect back then
There are comment that Jimmy deliberately make it look bad so his opponent (DA/Mesa verde) underestimate him.
These ads made me reminisce the fun times when Smosh made funny fake ads too for their skits back in the earlier 2010s
Good times.
Jimmy McGill is still your meth lawyer even if you don’t appreciate his commercials
Jimmy should of pursed a career in advertising he's so passionate about it.
5:34 it’s in this moment I realized the director is directing Saul to direct these people
"I'm more of a, humanities guy."
-Saul Goodman
Jimmy really should've gone into advertising
4:43 "Can you smile warmly? No?"
this right here is Jimmy's true calling
The film student's make some quality commercials, and yet by BB, Saul has that low budget "Im Saul Goodman, did you know that you have rights?" commercial airing regularly
"I'm ready for my close up Mr. McGill." was such a cute moment.

I saw that. It was genuine.
Jimmy's a legend
I hope we get a good ending with this crew, like they partner with Saul to make all his commercials then they start their own film agency or something
“Best Of” would be ALL OF THEM!!!
Her coming down and saying "I'm ready for my closeup Mr. McGill" reminded me of the end of Sunset Boulevard
"Does anybody like you?"

Theyre one of my favorite side character. Also caldera and the gun guy.
These guys are Jimmy’s angels.
Director Jimmy > Slippin Jimmy > Saul Goodman > Jimmy McGill

Bod odenkurk is a very talented actor.
This reminds me so much of the spoof commercials he did when he would worked on "Tom Goes to the Mayor" on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. They did great spoofs of local TV ads for small businesses.
They are such a great part of the show! Keep ‘em in Season 6! The young lady is so interesting looking. Very beautiful.
3:00 Truth time: I think the BCS creators made Jimmy's real last name "McGill" just for this line, because it rhymes with "DeMille".
Are you telling that a man just happens to fall like that? No! He orchestrated it! Jimmy!
You missed the one at the air base
5:59 ---> The best entry I have ever seen in a low-budget TV commercial.
Love the blonde girl, she's so nice lol.

Why the hell did he went law? the guy is amazing in advertisement lol better than mad man himself
Becuase he’s a damn good lawyer lmao
It was after the wheelchair shot….the film student became Heisenberg

Can’t believe he got the lead sing of Green Day to be his cameraman

Are you telling me a man just happens to fall like that?
Some of these commercials gave me Mr. Show vibes. 😂
Honestly the first works by Jimmy looked better than the BCS comercial
I love bob odenkirk. This role was meant for him
What's the word that Jimmy uses at 2:43? "Okay, it's a ________ and it's shot in glorious black and white." It sounds like "one-er".
It's a term for doing the scene in one continuous shot with no cuts.
