We’ve already seen what Breaking Bad would look like as a’90s drama. But what would it be like as a sitcom…starring slimy-but-effective lawyer Saul Goodman? Well, we might actually find out! News recently brokethat the producers of the best show on TV (sorry, Game of Thrones) are mulling a spinoff show starring comedy god Bob Odenkirk, who plays the awesomely cheesy attorney. Since the show is starting its final 8-episode run this summer, this is great news for all of us who don’t want to leave its hilariously twisted world behind. But why stop with a Saul sitcom? Here are three other Breaking Bad spinoffs, of various genres, that we humbly suggest…
