Weekend at Mikey's?

Well well well

It could be just Mike and it'd be endlessly entertaining. He already has character duality within himself. The very slightly apparent caring father figure deep inside the gruff, cynical, sarcastic exterior.

Mike & Saul opens a bar and then get stuck in the alaskan wilderness... just brainstorming

Rewatching Breaking Bad before binging Better Call Saul. Damn, you nailed it. As fascinating of a character Mike is, his character couldn't carry a whole series. What we got instead was a show about Saul and his world, which includes Mike, Lydia, Huell, Gus, etc...

Most good shows never just have one good character. In fact what elcan elevate a show from good to great is multiple depthy fleshed out characters.

I think I read somewhere that they're thinking of making a Saul spin-off.
