https://deadline.com/2022/08/vince-gill ... 235089196/I hear the new project, which comes from Sony Pictures TV where Gilligan has been under an overall deal for a long time, is a departure from the world of drugs and crime he explored in Breaking Bad and its prequel, Better Call Saul, whose series finale airs Aug 15. Word is that the new show harkens back to Gilligan’s tenure on The X-Files. But don’t expect a sci-fi drama — when he was a writer-producer on The X-Files, Gilligan was known for focusing more on the human condition in his episodes, which is something he is said to also be doing in his new series, exploring similar themes of bending reality while holding a mirror to humanity.
Described as a blended, grounded genre drama, the new series also is being compared to The Twilight Zone. It is said to be set in our world while putting a tweak on it, focusing on people and exploring the human condition in an unexpected, surprising way.
Thought-provoking but not a morality tale, the new show is expected to carry the signature Gilligan tone that infuses drama with humor.

They missed an obvious opportunity to establish that Seinfeld and Breaking Bad share the same universe.

I knew a few MD/JDs back in law school that went into healthcare law. Sounds like too much school to me but it happens.vinsanity wrote: ↑August 15 22, 1:55 pmNo one would buy Bob Odenkirk as a doctor AND a lawyer.Popeye_Card wrote: ↑August 15 22, 10:57 amThey missed an obvious opportunity to establish that Seinfeld and Breaking Bad share the same universe.

It was mostly a joke that I can buy Bob Odenkirk as a ruthless killer (Nobody) but not with two post-graduate degrees.heyzeus wrote: ↑August 15 22, 3:12 pmI knew a few MD/JDs back in law school that went into healthcare law.
