Oh christ, Welcome to watch mojo.

And today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 ways Better Call Saul impacts Breaking Bad.

You won't have to talk to the cops, You won't have to do any time.

There's no killing but your TucO problem.

It goes away for this list.

We'll be looking at plot points connected to Breaking Bad that were expanded upon or given a whole new perspective in its prequel series.

Better keep in mind we'll be breaking out the spoilers.

Do you think Better Call Saul has strengthened the Breaking Bad legacy.

Let us know in the comments number 10 fuels fate.

Although Breaking Bad tied up most of its loose ends.

A few characters were left with ambiguous fates.

In the final season of Better Call Saul gene take a vic as he now goes by contacts Francesca.

His old receptionist informs him that Skyler White got off on a deal.

While only Jesse Pinkman is car was found alluding to the events of el camino.

Leave it near the border hide it kinda But you don't hide it so good.

The cops can't find it, wipe it down for a press hitchhike back.

Do not let nobody see you in that car.

The biggest takeaway is the revelation that Huell Babineaux Saul's former bodyguard evaded jail time because the D.

E.

A held him under false pretenses claiming walt had put a hit on him and had already killed jesse.

Oh man.

Oh man, I swear to God, I didn't know he was gonna kill him man.

I didn't know he was gonna kill him.

Fans often wondered if you'll ever left the safe house where we last saw him Better call Saul clarifies that he's since moved back to New Orleans, I guess back home in New Orleans.

D.

A.

Held him under false pretenses or something.

So last I heard he walked good number nine Crazy Eight.

While he only appears in the first three Breaking Bad episodes, this drug dealer leaves a strong impression.

We connect with Crazy Eight as he's locked in Jesse's basement, which makes it even harder when walt has no choice but to directly murder someone for the first time.

The moment I do.

Are you going to stick me with that broken piece of plate?

We're left to wonder how much of what Crazy Eight told walt about himself was true.

As we see in Better Call Saul, his real name is indeed Domingo Molina and Lalo Salamanca supplied his nickname.

Three Eights on the turn and you don't raise and then you fold at the river.

It's too bad.

Your local, this guy, huh?

It's also revealed that Krazy Eight interacted with several Breaking bad characters before encountering walt or jesse.

He worked for Don Hector and Saul Goodman negotiated a deal when Hank Schrader and steven Gomez tried interrogating him Crazy eight might have been better off in jail.

Yeah, Well, if his information leads to arrests, then charges go away.

Okay, now, how can you say no to that?

That is a win win for you guys.

Number eight Tuco Salamanca and the cousins after Crazy eight dies, walter and jesse get involved with the hot headed to go.

It isn't long until they cross paths with other members of the Salamanca family, including the silent but deadly cousins Better call Saul, explores their criminal activities before Heisenberg thanks to Mike and Nacho Tuco faces almost a decade in prison.

Get on the ground.

Don Hector and the cousins ultimately forced Mike's hand, resulting in to go getting a much shorter prison sentence.

I would like for you tell the police had Mike's plan gone off without a hitch to go, still likely would have been in jail when walt got involved in the meth business, Mike prolonged his life by telling the police it was his gun, but by getting to go out early, he paved the way for walt to one day, doom all parties involved, we tried to poison you because you're an insane degenerate piece of filth and you deserve to die.

Number seven Gus on the rise in Better Call Saul Gustavo fring is already the chicken man behind Los Pollos Hermanos and a prominent meth distribution figure.

While much of his past is left ambiguous, the prequel series sets the stage for Gus to take down many of his rivals in Breaking Bad.

We cleared out the Espino sis, they're all done.

And the Salamanca brothers, Marco took a hit, but he'll pull through, it will be awhile until Gus is in a position to exact revenge against Don Ilario.

However, he can knock the Salamanca's down a peg on his way up the ladder using Nacho is upon us.

Business begins to thrive while his main competitor suffers, get some rest, you have more to do.

We also watched the production of Gus state of the Art, Super Lab where walt will one day cook going into Breaking Bad, all the pieces are in place for Gus continued rise and downfall.

I decide what he deserves, no one else.

Number six, Nacho and Lalo when walter and jesse first kidnap Saul, he desperately mentions two names, Ignacio and La lo.

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, it wasn't me, it was a Nacho, he's the one.

While this seemed irrelevant throughout Breaking Bads run, both characters are given essential arcs in Better Call Saul, Jimmy reluctantly helps Lalo Salamanca out of a legal jam, Shortly before Nacho enables the attack on his compound.

After going on the run for a while, Lalo asks for jimmy's help again, killing Howard Hamlin in the process.

Although jimmy and kim survived this ordeal, their marriage does not.

In due course, jimmy McGill essentially dies leaving only Saul Goodman moving to court.

Day, I'm not going down there twice in one week, that's their problem as walter and jesse made Saul look at an empty grave, it's safe to say that he had flashbacks to the night when Lalo oft howard and changed everything.

Number five How Mike met Gus when they're introduced in Breaking Bad, Mike has a longstanding professional relationship with Gus.

Good news is for stage three cancer guys doing well physically, not only the guy's a disaster, the roots of that relationship are unveiled and better call Saul Hector.

Salamanca brought them together.

Although not intentionally mike plotted to kill Hector who had been harassing him.

Gus prevents the head as it's in his best interest to keep Hector alive for now, it's not in my interest for Hector.

Salamanca to die at this time.

Since they both hate Hector though, Mike and Gus find common ground that leads to a partnership at first the to maintain their distance with Mike, not even wanting to accept us money, you sent back the payment we agreed upon what I did, I didn't do for you.

However, it isn't long until Mike is overseeing the construction of Gus lab, heading up his security and making problems go away.

Mike continued to do much of this in Breaking Bad Number four, How Saul met Mike between being a cop and getting involved in the drug world.

Mike worked as an Albuquerque courthouse parking lot attendant.

It's here where he first encounters the struggling lawyer, jimmy McGill, $3.

I'm validated, See the stickers.

Well I see five stickers, you're one shy.

It's $3 although they get off on the wrong foot.

The to form a professional relationship and sort of friendship jimmy represents mike legally and they both do odd favors for each other.

So I'm here because you want me to assault a police officer.

I am asking you to take a few ounces of lukewarm coffee and spill it on him.

I doubt that satisfies the definition of assault, but hey, you're the lawyer.

By the time jimmy goes full.

Saul Goodman Mike is working as his private investigator getting tangled in walt's schemes.

Saul arranges for him to meet Gus with mike presumably acting as the middleman.

So if jimmy had never met Mike, he wouldn't have met Gus and walt wouldn't have met either of the latter two and it all started with a parking backing up.

I have to back up.

I need more stickers.

Don't have enough stickers.

Number three Hector.

Salamanca stroke flashbacks aside.

Hector spends the entirety of breaking bad in a wheelchair with a bell and a perpetually angry face as his only means of communication.

You don't like them.

It's rather jarring when he first pops up in better call Saul walking, talking and seemingly in stable health, we never would have imagined the Ignacio that Saul briefly mentioned was the one who put the cartel don in that chair.

Hector has a heart condition, but he's fine.

As long as he takes his medicine, you get caught.

It could get worse.

You don't think I know who I'm dealing with.

No to protect his father.

Nacho switches Hector's pills with empty capsules, causing his fateful stroke in retrospect, this would have been the best time for gus to finish Hector.

He'd rather let his enemy suffer though, allowing Hector to live long enough to get revenge.

Number two from jimmy to Saul to jean.

Breaking bad has always possessed great rewatch value, but going back is even more fascinating Now that Saul's backstory has been fully fleshed out mayhew, is that irish or english, irish faith in bag or a fellow potato eater.

My real name's McGill.

Just as we watch walt go from chemistry teacher to drug kingpin jimmy slash sol slash gene goes through several evolutions.

You're on the billboards, on the tv.

I used to have one of your matchbooks, you got me mixed up with someone, my name is jean to pick.

Each is different, although each has the same fatal flaw, never knowing when to be content.

As seen in better call Saul jimmy was given more than one opportunity to be a legitimate lawyer.

Yet his inner con artist always calls to him.

You have no idea what's going on.

You're a T, teensy tiny man in a teensy weensy little bubble.

This mold him into a criminal lawyer who will inevitably become a wanted criminal.

Saul follows through on his plan to start over as a Cinnabon manager.

However, living a boring life doesn't suit who, Gene take a pic is underneath one in the game, the game, what game?

Although primarily a prequel, Better Call Saul also serves as a sequel, especially towards the end as jean stumbles back into slipping, jimmy's old tricks.

All right, we ready and grab your bag and go, that's it.

Move move.

This cleverly mirrors flashbacks to when Saul first got involved with walt and jesse.

It's confirmed that Mike was the one who provided a background check on walt for Saul.

Even more significant.

Mike warned Saul about getting further involved with walt, believing it would only amount to trouble.

Listen, even though this guy was gonna live, I wouldn't go near him.

He's a complete amateur.

Well, you see an amateur, I see £170 of clay ready to be molded trouble is what Saul wants deep down however, sol isn't happy with just being a lawyer, much like how Gene isn't satisfied managing a Cinnabon both.

Thus go through doors that may feed their hunger for a little more fun one way or another, the fun needs to end eventually.

So if you want to make more money and keep the money that you make better call Saul.
