  • Better Call Saul (2015 – Present)

    This spin-off prequel to Breaking Bad follows a small-time lawyer (Bob Odenkirk) with the tendencies of a con artist as he transforms into the morally-challenged criminal lawyer most knew him as, Saul Goodman.

    Set in a world where humans and anthropomorphic animals live alongside each other, a washed-up sitcom star plans a comeback to fame with help from a ghostwriter, his ex-girlfriend who’s also his agent, and his freeloading roommate, while dealing with his rival who’s dating the ghostwriter. The show had a stellar run after a rocky season 1. A Netflix original.
