Farewell Saul Goodman: the star of the spin-off we never saw coming. When Jesse Pinkman drove off into the desert at the end of Breaking Bad’s final episode nine years ago, leaving behind a mortally wounded Walter White, the safe money would not have bet on Bob Odenkirk starring as the reptilian “Slipping” Jimmy McGill in a prequel that traced his mutation from small-time schlemiel into still more slimy attorney Saul Goodman.
It was more likely that glamorous slacker meth-cook Jesse would drive off to adventures new. Instead, of course, Aaron Paul went on to voice Todd in BoJack Horseman, who is essentially a more lovable Jesse minus the crystal blue persuasion.
