    What's the best TV series of all time? Thumbs up if Better Call Saul is one of you top picks.
  • @lefettsack
    The fact that he never won an Emmy for his portrayal of Saul Goodman is the biggest snub in the history of any award. Such a talented actor.
  • It’s crazy how well Saul is able to portray this Bob Odenkirk character
  • @TheSirse
    Nothing annoys me more than how underappreciated this man is as an actor. Jimmy McGill is my favourite fictious character of all time and Bob is the reason why he is so great.
  • Bob definitely warmed up in this interview. He went from being a bit frosty to being very relatable and enjoyable.
  • Bob: yeah I'm not really a hot sauce guy Also Bob: proceeds to crush every single wing and give clear, coherent answers
  • Sean's last question monologue and seeing Bob's face light really shows the power of Sean as an interviewer
  • @Bjhorn279
    I love how engaged Sean is when Bob is retelling a joke or story, it’s like your cool uncle you never see all the time
  • @tashateal8279
    Bob Odenkirk at the beginning really was giving vibes that he didn't want to be there doing a gimmicky interview and had really low expectations. But, Sean's ability to ask thought-provoking questions and keep guests entertained is AMAZING! By the end you could tell Bob was genuinely enjoying himself. Keep it up Hot Ones!!!
  • Bob writing poetry with his little kids and publishing them with his grown kids is just the sweetest thing. Gold medal for this dad.
  • @kobman4159
    I've noticed, that most comedians Sean brings to the show are actually very serious, deep, mostly cynical and really observant and intelligent people, who put up some kind of a defensive facade in the beginning and slowly open up towards the end.
  • @vivisimonvi
    Amazing how Sean completely reversed Bob's expectations of this interview. I could tell from the beginning he wasn't feeling the vibe and was probably expecting some cookie cutter interview with only questions relating to the Breaking Bad universe. What an absolutely brilliant and joyful interaction here.
  • Bob Odenkirk is proof your peak can happen at any age, keep on pushing and bettering yourself and the rest will follow!
  • It’s actually insane that the writing in BB and BCS is so good that Bob has learned life lessons from playing a character in those shows. “Let go of resentments” is a major theme in both shows and although they’re fictional, they’re so well written and believable that the actors involved feel those themes on a personal level. As does the audience.
  • @avianna7738
    Everyone else: tries to withstand the heat to look tough by nibbling small bites of the wings and not drinking any water. Bob Odenkirk: eats dinner.
  • To be honest, Bob Odenkirk should’ve won lots of awards for Better Call Saul, this man is a gem.
  • @connorh4307
    "It's gonna hurt you more than anyone you resent" is such good advice. You gotta love Bob
  • @Judg3m3nt
    That wistful look he gave remember how happy he was performing with Chris. That is equally heart warming and wrenching.
  • Bobby is more relaxed of a dude than I assumed. Just very calm with bits of humor and theatrics sprinkled into the mix to go along with his natural charm. What a guy.
