What to Know

Critics Consensus

The premiere will be familiar territory, but Bob Odenkirk's turn as Jimmy McGill establishes Better Call Saul as a worthy character study in its own right.

Though it wasn't quite the same tour de force as Breaking Bad's pilot, it was absorbing and fun to watch all the way through, introduced rich characters and deep conflicts that are sure to pay off for seasons to come... Go to Full Review Chris Harvey Daily Telegraph (UK) Mar 11, 2015
5/5
Odenkirk was just rounding the character out, bringing him to life in all his new found depth and complexity so that we'd care about him just as much as we did about Walt once the action kicks in. Go to Full Review Liz Shannon Miller IndieWire Mar 2, 2015
B+
It's a treat to see Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould push the universe they originally created into some new directions, and really rely on the concept of longform storytelling, letting mysteries unravel slowly. Go to Full Review Ian Berriman Total Film Mar 2, 2015
4/5
Uno is a supremely confident start to a series that feels very much of a piece with Breaking Bad, but doesn't feel like it exists swamped by its shadow. Walter who? Go to Full Review Scott Weinberg Nerdist Feb 11, 2015
It doesn't look like the producers Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould will have any trouble avoiding the spin-off pitfalls that plague so many other television franchises. Go to Full Review August King The Young Folks Feb 11, 2015
8/10
Each sequence is cannily constructed both to pull off a laugh and peel back another layer of Jimmy's personality/predicament. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
