Hailed as one of the greatest television series of all time and the recipient of countless awards, "Breaking Bad" remains an irreplaceable masterpiece for countless fans, even 11 years after its finale. The show's intricate storylines and meticulous details continue to captivate audiences, a testament to the masterful storytelling of producer and writer Peter Gould.
Recently, Peter Gould shared an early concept for "Breaking Bad's" penultimate episode on Bluesky, revealing a different original fate for the character Saul Goodman. In this early version, Gould stated that Saul was initially intended to work at Hot Topic, rather than the Cinnabon audiences came to know.
The change in plans stemmed from the discovery that Hot Topic stores actually sold "Breaking Bad" merchandise. To avoid the appearance of a cheap product placement or commercial promotion, the creative team opted for an alternative.
Ultimately, the decision was made for Saul Goodman to work at Cinnabon, a choice that famously echoed in the flash-forward segments of "Better Call Saul," where he managed a Cinnabon bakery under the alias Gene Takavic.
