It is a spin - off prequel of Gilligan 's prior series Breaking Bad. Set in 2002, Better Call Saul follows the story of small - time lawyer James Morgan `` Jimmy '' McGill ( Bob Odenkirk ), six years before his appearance on Breaking Bad as Saul Goodman ; events after the original series are briefly explored as well. The first season, which premiered on AMC on February 8, 2015, consists of 10 episodes. The show 's 10 - episode second season premiered on February 15, 2016. The series was renewed for a 10 - episode third season, which premiered April 10, 2017. On June 27, 2017, the series was renewed by AMC for a 10 - episode fourth season to air in 2018. Like its predecessor, Better Call Saul has received critical acclaim, particularly for its acting, writing, and directing with many critics calling it a worthy successor to Breaking Bad. It has garnered several nominations, including 23 Primetime Emmy Awards, seven Writers Guild of America Awards, five Critics ' Choice Television Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award and two Golden Globe Awards. The series premiere held the record for the highest - rated scripted series premiere in basic cable history at the time of its airing.

In a July 2012 interview, Gilligan said he liked `` the idea of a lawyer show in which the main lawyer will do anything it takes to stay out of a court of law '', including settling on the courthouse steps. In April 2013, the series was confirmed to be in development by Gilligan and Gould ; the latter wrote the Breaking Bad episode that introduced the character. Casting Bob Odenkirk stars as lawyer Jimmy McGill ( known as Saul Goodman in Breaking Bad ). In January 2014, it was announced that Jonathan Banks would reprise his Breaking Bad role as Mike Ehrmantraut and be a series regular. Aaron Paul announced having had `` serious talks '' with Gilligan for possible guest appearances, but later told The Huffington Post it was not going to happen. Dean Norris, another Breaking Bad alumnus, announced that he would not be appearing, partly due to his involvement in the CBS series Under the Dome. Anna Gunn also mentioned a `` talk '' with Gilligan over possible guest appearances. Michael McKean was cast as McGill 's elder brother Chuck, having previously guest - starred in an episode of Odenkirk 's Mr. Show and Gilligan 's X-Files episode `` Dreamland ''. The cast also includes Patrick Fabian as Howard Hamlin, Rhea Seehorn as Kimberly `` Kim '' Wexler, and Michael Mando as Ignacio `` Nacho '' Varga. In October 2014, Kerry Condon was cast as Stacey Ehrmantraut, Mike 's daughter - in - law. In November 2014, it was announced that Julie Ann Emery and Jeremy Shamos had been cast as Betsy and Craig Kettleman, described as `` the world 's squarest outlaws. '' Development history By July 2013, the series had yet to be green - lighted. Netflix was one of many interested distributors, but ultimately a deal was made between AMC and Breaking Bad production company Sony Pictures Television. Gilligan and Gould serve as co-showrunners and Gilligan directed the pilot. Former Breaking Bad writers Thomas Schnauz and Gennifer Hutchison joined the writing staff, with Schnauz serving as co-executive producer and Hutchison as supervising producer. Also on the writing staff are Bradley Paul, and Gordon Smith, who was a writer 's assistant on Breaking Bad. In developing the series, the producers considered making the show a half - hour comedy, but ultimately chose an hour - long format more typical of a drama. In October 2014, Odenkirk called the show `` 85 percent drama, 15 percent comedy. '' During his appearance on Talking Bad, Odenkirk noted that Saul was one of the most popular characters on the show, speculating that the audience likes the character because he is the program 's least hypocritical figure, and is good at his job. Better Call Saul also employs Breaking Bad 's signature time jumps. As filming began on June 2, 2014, Gilligan expressed some concern regarding the possible disappointment from the series ' turnout, in terms of audience reception. On June 19, 2014, AMC announced it had renewed the series for a second season of 13 episodes to premiere in early 2016 ; however, it was later reduced to 10 episodes. The first teaser trailer debuted on AMC on August 10, 2014, and confirmed its premiere date of February 2015. In November 2014, AMC announced the series would have a two - night premiere ; the first episode aired on Sunday, February 8, 2015, at 10 : 00 pm ( ET ), and then moved into its regular time slot the following night, airing Mondays at 10 : 00 pm. In May 2015, Gilligan confirmed that more of the prominent characters from Breaking Bad would be making guest appearances in season 2, but remained vague on which characters were likely to be seen. In March 2016, AMC announced that Better Call Saul was renewed for a 10 - episode third season. In June 2017, AMC renewed the series for a 10 - episode fourth season to air in 2018. Following a panel dialogue about tv writing on the 36th Vancouver Worldwide Movie Competition, `` Better Call Saul '' author and govt producer Thomas Schnauz confirmed in an unique interview with Gold Derby ( watch above ) that the present would return in September 2018 for its fourth season. By then, 17 months may have handed for the reason that third season premiered on AMC in April 2017 ( and 15 for the reason that third season finale in June 2017 ). `` Higher Name Saul '' will return too late to qualify for the 2018 Emmys, having been nominated for Greatest Drama Sequence for its first three seasons. Schnauz explains, `` We do miss an Emmy cycle. We do come again in September and so long as the present continues, we 're going to hit that September mark yearly. '' The writers have estimated about 5 seasons for the present, so pencil the ultimate season in tentatively for a September 2019 debut. Nevertheless, the `` Higher Name Saul '' writers are open about how they `` do n't arc out the complete season '' upfront, not to mention understand how the collection will finish. Like its predecessor, Better Call Saul is set and filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
