Better Call Saul

Better Call Saul

Better Call Saul is a clever drama following Jimmy McGill, a struggling lawyer with a gift for talking his way out of trouble, as he slowly transforms into the slick lawyer Saul Goodman. Smart, funny, and tense, with a slow-burning, character-driven mood. For a learner, it's rich with persuasive, everyday American English. The dialogue is sharp and natural, with useful chunks around arguing a point, making excuses, negotiating, and smooth talking, in a clever, confident tone.
