(Spoiler alert: Don’t read this if you haven’t watched the first nine episodes of “Better Call Saul” Season 2.) Last we saw Michael McKean‘s Charles McGill, Esq., the “Better Call Saul” attorney-at-law extraordinaire suffered pretty a wicked head trauma — though not the kind that typically takes place in the “Breaking Bad” universe. Chuck wasn’t shot or bludgeoned — rather, the electricity-averse lawyer had an episode in a copy store, falling and smacking his dome hard on a countertop. As per usual, the whole thing was brother Jimmy’s (Bob Odenkirk) fault — kind of. Also Read: 9 'Breaking Bad' Characters We've Already Spotted.

If you believe one Charles McGill, Esq., then you might just agree with my column title this week. Charles, or just Chuck to his brother James – err, Jimmy – is quite the cantankerous coot when he wants to be. And when he’s not being cranky, he’s stripping his brother’s soul away, through a cruel and twisted life-view. It’s enough to drive a guy to throw years of attempted redemption down the drain in lieu of cheap wins and morally ambiguous behavior. And it’s a damned beautiful shame.
I’m of course talking about the recently completed first season of Better Call Saul, the progenitor to Breaking Bad. To be totally fair, Saul isn’t what one might truly dub a prequel per se. Instead, it’s a same-universe flashback, fleshing out of an otherwise ancillary character into a fully developed lead, worthy of his own show.
