Most people that I have talked to prefer Better Call Saul, because Breaking Bad has the stigma of a terrible drug hanging over the premise. It's harder for Joe Everyperson to watch Breaking Bad because it feels dirty. BCS has a more familiar swindly feeling because that's who Saul is and Saul represents a lot of people. But so does Walter.

They're both great companion series, my point was to make sure anyone reading this would watch Saul after breaking bad. It doesn't work the other way. Watch it as it was released. Hell, they overlapped at the end (iirc)

Wow. Seriously? Maybe people would feel differently if they knew Hal was truly the villain, not the hero.
