The Breaking Bad prequel turns out to be its equal: the slow, painful transformation of well-meaning hustler Jimmy McGill into morally bankrupt lawyer Saul Goodman, shadowed by fixer Mike Ehrmantraut. Patient, beautifully shot and quietly tragic, it's character study as crime saga. If its measured tension and moral erosion gripped you, Breaking Bad is the obvious next step, and Fargo shares its blackly comic, slow-burn descent into crime.
