    A few corrections Breaking Legs - The ethics violation would be invalid. Jimmy was acting as a good Samaritan, carefully negotiating a violent criminal down from skinning two young men alive out in the New Mexico desert. The Kettlemens & Nacho - Jimmy didn't encourage Nacho to try and rob the Kettlemens. He accidently let it slip that they had embezzled money while under duress, but later after Nacho proposed working together to rob them Jimmy declined on moral grounds. Though this left Nacho to rob the Kettlemens on his own, Jimmy in no way encouraged him because it would ruin his chance to represent them. Later the police chased Jimmy down and arrested him because they were following a lead. After the police arrested Nacho a payphone called him repeatedly and left him many ominous voicemails, so they called the payphone back to see if the caller was still there and after confirming such they sent agents to arrest and interrogate him in connection to their suspect, only to then discover that the caller was Nacho's lawyer.

    Yeah, she was also wrong about the opening. Those weren’t Jimmy’s opening remarks, it was his closing statement. He also didn’t start the trial by barging in, he asked for a recess to run to the bathroom to practice his lines. Then came back in to deliver his closing remarks. Then the prosecution plays the footage of the teens having sex with the head as it’s closing remarks and let’s the jury go to decision. She definitely was just fed clips to react to with no context.

    Would love to see you react to more series of this. I love Breaking Bad but I honestly think Better Call Saul is a better show. The idea behind BB was to take a 'good' character and have him turn 'bad' but honestly I think BCS does a much better job of that than BB did. Rewatching BB, I feel like Walt always had the nasty qualities that we see in him as Heisenberg, he just grew in confidence and eventually hubris over time. Saul, while not always doing things above board, I feel does have a good heart at the beginning but overtime life beats that out of him. It's a slower burn but I believe it's better crafted and also much more realistic. Also just a lot sadder because we've seen who Jimmy becomes and how his life goes.

    So I haven’t watched all of BCS so I don’t have that insight to compare the two, but I’ve always felt like BB wasn’t purely showing good going bad, it’s that we all have a little bad in us but what circumstances make us break. That’s just what I’ve always taken from BB. Without seeing BCS fully I can without a doubt say it’s a great show though!

    @@carstarsarstenstesenn They specifically did a good job of showing someone who does bad things for good reasons (Jimmy) and someone who does good things for bad reasons (Chuck). For all his competence, technical expertise, and professed love for the virtuous application of the law, Chuck maliciously litigated situations that worked to his own benefit and looked over injustices if he thought they were unwinnable. And his tit-for-tat animosity toward his brother built the toxic foundation that eroded the moral attachment that Jimmy had to his own unsavory behavior. Chuck habitually fed, nurtured, and finally released the beast that is Saul Goodman. I personally still love BB more because of the places they took the show (esp. Ozymandias, Confessions, and Dead Freight), and because we wouldn't have BCS without BB. But I agree that BCS is a fantastic show, done well. I'm also glad the writers were able to hone their skills on BB and channel their creativity into BCS without making the latter feel like a retread of the former. Truly an amazing crew of artists.

    your reactions really peeve me, no offense, because they lack the substantial context required to get the full picture of the scene. when you said that jimmy was "advising someone to break the law", that criticism is invalid because he saved two people from being gutted and killed by a ruthless man to simply having their legs broken, which is morbid but hey i didn't write the show. again, i dont expect you to watch every episode in a show before making a video on it, but please try watching some snippets to understand further context that turns a scene of a lawyer behaving unlawfully to doing something just.

    You lack enormous amounts of context in all of these clips, it would be helpful if you actually watched the show so the things you say actually make sense. One example, Tuco is a methhead, he is out of control and wanted to murder those two guys that were tied up. Saul did an amazing negotiation and saved their lives. Jimmy was far from advising him to commit a crime, he was saving their lives.

Basically private defense attorneys will take on clients that the public defenders office can’t take for a reason (like being conflicted out) and get paid money from the state per client/defendant they take on.

    At 2:20 when he was calling his clients knuckleheads, it was more of an appeal to the jury since they were older, to remind them "hey, we were all young and dumb once. When have any of you not been a knucklehead in your life? Let's try to downplay this event as just some kids being kids." Also... i'm not sure if you actually watched the episodes with your commentary on 5:10... Tuco was about to brutally murder both of them, and Jimmy was able to talk him down out of his rage-induced state to only breaking one leg each. Tuco is part of the Mexican Cartel, so yea.... of course it's an ethics violation. This isn't in a courtroom though, so that isn't applicable as an argument.

Even down to the calling clients knuckleheads - Jimmy knew that there was overwhelming evidence against them and rather than trying to make them out to be innocent, he described them as knuckleheads to make them out to be immature and silly, rather than malicious.

    7:32 It's worth knowing that in this scene, Jimmy is fully aware that it's trademark infringement, and he was relying on recieving the injunction that demanded he take it down; it was all part of a grand scheme to stage an accident at the scene of the billboard being taken down (a worker falling off the billboard and dangling by a wire) so he could be caught on camera saving the day, giving him more publicity than the billboard ever would have. It shows that Jimmy/Saul has a very good understanding of the law as well as a great ability to plan several steps ahead to get what he wants.

It came out in the 90s with Ur-Girl Boss Ashley Judd in it (no shade, I love her) and Tommy Lee Jones as a parole officer and it's got a pretty rad premise, but I'd be interested to see what you think about the whole thing.

    The presenter here lacks a lot of context, as she hasn't watched the show. I'm not a lawyer, but what Saul was trying to do is make the jury more compassionate towards the (obviously guilty) young guys to prevent them from going to jail. In my book, he was trying his best as a defender, even if that was pure theatrics.

    Everyone in the courtroom must have realized it was theatrics and (basically) demagogy. I'm on the legal eagle's side in the way that the guys' guilt was obvious, but Saul did well trying to mitigate the situation (=they are young and dumb, don't give them jail time). That is, until the tape surfaced :P

    Jimmy is not working as a public defender. Rather he is working as a court appointed lawyer. Contrary to what is shown in film and television, most indigent defendants receive court appointed counsel. That is why Jimmy is not on salary and is being paid on a "per defense" basis. It must have been a remarkably short trial though. $700 wasn't much even in 2002.

    I think the 'shouldn't call them knuckleheads' argument is a bit weird. Yeah, it's all theatrics and demagogy, but what Saul was trying to do is stir some sympathy for the guys that were obviously guilty, to prevent them from getting jail time (=responsible attorney). Plus, the guys were young, so patronizing them felt more or less ok. Lastly, the presenter clearly lacks a lot of context, so I'm siding with the legal eagle just because he actually watched the entire episode more than once.

    There are smaller counties that do not have a public defenders office and instead pay private attorneys to take individual cases. This happens on juvenile cases too (involving allegations of abuse). He’s not employed by the PD’s office so I’m guessing that’s his arrangement. I made $30k/year in 2000 when I started my first job with a legal aid program. So this doesn’t sound impossible!
