I like seeing a group evolve and form good friendships. I also like sci fi and weirdness. For these reasons, two of my favorite shows are The Expanse and Severance. In both, by the end, I felt like I was “part of the team” in some way.

What are a couple of your favorites? What kind of itch do they scratch?

I'm always hesitant to watch Better Call Saul knowing that Walt ruined everything anyways. I wished i watched it before BB

There are a few moments that nod straight to Breaking Bad though, like Tuco's entry. It had me fanboying and hyped for the directing/writing especially across shows. I also feel like you can really get a sense of the writers' personal development coming off of Breaking Bad, like they refined so much that was already some of the best TV. And the contrast between Walt's unreal saga and how Saul is so humanized; he's deeply flawed but just a guy trying to make it.

I really need to finish Better Call Saul.
