Better Call Saul

Breaking Bad was my favorite show. When I finished Better Call Saul, I still felt Breaking Bad was my favorite show but then I went to rewatch Breaking Bad and while still very good, I felt Breaking Bad relies a lot on a shock factor/surprises that isn’t as rewarding on a 2nd viewing. All the “holy shit!” moments that were so exciting the first time around were still good but not as strong.

Better Call Saul relied more on the strength of its characters than multiple “Whoa, I can’t believe this just happened!” moments throughout the show.

Both are still fantastic but Better Call Saul takes the edge for me. I think it will age better.
