During "The Walking Dead's" fall finale, many viewers were less concerned with the show and more concerned about a short clip from the highly anticipated "Breaking Bad" spinoff, "Better Call Saul."
"I don’t think you want to be doing that," said Mike Ehrmantraut.
"Oh yeah? You got a poop filled diaper, you’re going to throw it at me? You gonna gum me to death geezer? … Ow! Ow! Ow!" said Saul Goodman.
Yes, Mike Ehrmantraut of "Breaking Bad" glory made an appearance in the clip, throwing Saul Goodman to the ground after a confrontation at a parking garage.
As Variety notes, this clip is significant because, other than the inclusion of Ehrmantraut, we don’t know much about the plot. And, up until this point, all we’ve seen of the show have been short, 10-second clips and one music video.
Fans were ecstatic about Mike’s appearance in the clip. One tweeted that his return was a "Great way to add some new material to the #BreakingBad mythology."
But fans looking for more of the same for this "Breaking Bad" spinoff may be disappointed. Bob Odenkirk, who plays Saul Goodman, spoke to Screen Rant about how this won’t be "Breaking Bad 2.0."
"We're gonna do something fresh and new with a character that is rich and funny ... we wanna make sure the audience sees right away that it's not a continuation of Breaking Bad, but rather its own thing."
Although that humor that Odenkirk brings to his character isn't necessarily going to be the whole show. In a more recent interview, he said, "It's total drama, man … It's 85 percent drama, 15 percent comedy."
So if you’re like all those people on Twitter and want to see the hilarious lawyer in action once again, “Better Call Saul’s” two-night premiere begins Sunday, Feb. 8th.
