'Better Call Saul': First brief teaser clip released

Fans of "Breaking Bad" have been eagerly awaiting their next fix since the show ended in September of 2013. That fix is coming in the form of "Better Call Saul," a spin-off coming to AMC. Now the cable network has just posted its first teaser for "Better Call Saul," which aired last night on TV. You can see it below.

The teaser consists of a single clip, with main character Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) talking to an unseen character assumed to be a potential client. It's the smallest of clips, clocking in at just 11 seconds, but it gives a hint of what's to come. In it, Goodman waxes philosophical about society's need for lawyers, despite everyone's dislike of them.

"Better Call Saul" is set primarily in 2002, several years before the events of "Breaking Bad," although it will occasionally show events during and after "Breaking Bad," too. Unscrupulous lawyer Saul Goodman was the friend and frequent ally of Walter White, the family-man-turned-drug-lord at the heart of "Breaking Bad." Odenkirk often served as the show's comedy relief, so it's assumed that "Better Call Saul" will feature a bigger emphasis on humor than its predecessor.

In addition to Odenkirk, the show stars Jonathan Banks reprising his role as Goodman's wet-work specialist Mike Ehrmantraut, Michael McKeehan as Saul's brother Chuck, as well as Patrick Fabian, Rhea Seehorn and Michael Mando in undisclosed roles. "Better Call Saul" premieres February 2015 on AMC.
