Breaking Bad cameo added to “Better Call Saul”

Another Breaking Bad cameo has made its way into Better Call Saul (BCS).

Since the prequel started, BCS has featured numerous Breaking Bad characters. The list includes fan favorites such as Mike Ehrmantraut, Gus Fring, and Hector Salamanca as well as less regular Breaking Bad characters like Lydia, Tuco and Crazy 8.

In “Something Beautiful”, Vince Gilligan added another fantastic cameo to the series. Dorky, lovable and almost innocent chemist Gale Boetticher was added in a short scene when he complains to Gus about the poor quality of some drugs he has been testing.

Although the scene was short, it symbolizes a small step closer to Breaking Bad’s timeline. Fans are speculating whether the series will end when Breaking Bad starts, meaning Walter White and Jesse could potentially make appearances.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Gilligan said of this possibility: “I desperately want to see both of them on Better Call Saul. Peter [Gould] wants it, the writers do, the actors do.

“It wouldn’t feel as satisfying if it was just a cameo or an Alfred Hitchcock walkthrough,” he continued. “I think we’ve waited long enough. We damn well better have a good reason for them to show up. I just hope we figure it out because I’ve got to hear, ‘Yeah, bitch!’ one more time.”
