Slippin’ Jimmy, animated prequel mini-series to Better Call Saul
The Better Call Saul universe expands with a family cartoon.
Produced by Starburns Industries and written by Ariel Levine and Kathleen Williams-Fauci, Slippin’ Jimmy follows the misadventures of a young Jimmy McGill honing his skills as a con artist long before he became Saul Goodman. Her meeting with her friend Marco Pasternark will also be there. The story is told in the style of a 1970s cartoon, and each episode is an ode to a particular genre of cinema, from spaghetti westerns to Buster Keaton and The Exorcist.
Before he was Saul Goodman, Jimmy McGill was Slippin’ Jimmy.

AMC announced three additional Better Call Saul animated series, including Sliding Jimmy. Cooper’s Bar, an animated spin-off starring Better Call Saul’s Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler, is also slated for release this spring. Finally, Season 4 of Better Call Saul returns this summer. Previous seasons of the show have focused on employee training at Los Pollos Hermanos, safety training at Madrigal Electromotive, and ethics training with Kim Wexler. With this new series, fans will now be able to learn how to make television commercials in the style of Saul Goodman.
