Vince Gilligan originally conceived the project as a minisode titled "63" that would have been produced for the series' 10th anniversary as a gift to fans, acting as a final 63rd episode of Breaking Bad, but was soon developed into a full episode and then feature length film, to more effectively make use of the cost of assembling a cast and crew.

Season 4 begins in an incredibly grim manner, where Walter and Jesse fear for their lives. Gus spares them in a brutal fashion.

Better Call Saul is laced with references to the chronologically later Breaking Bad. Vince Gilligan gives plenty of call-forwards to events that will happen after the show's events. Plenty of characters appear in both shows. However, Better Call Saul also goes out of its way to pay off moments from Breaking Bad.It's a portrait of one man's simultaneous ascent (to drug lord) and descent (into moral depravity).
