‘Better Call Saul’ Creators And Cast Talk End Of ‘Breaking Bad’ Universe; Return Of Familiar Faces – TCA

Better Call Saul is TV's best Rube Goldberg machine. The AMC drama has spent four-going-on-five seasons building an elaborate system of cause and effect, trapping people in such an intricate chain of consequences that, in some cases, they were living totally different lives when the first domino fell.

On Tommy, a new drama series premiering Feb. 6 on CBS, Edie Falco is seemingly very far from the New York City metro area she's so closely associated with thanks to her performances on The Sopranos and Nurse Jackie. She plays Abigail "Tommy" Thomas, a New York Police Department legend who moves across the country to become the first female chief of the Los Angeles Police Department.

He's back!

In today’s TV News round-up, AMC released the first full length trailer for the fifth season of “Better Call Saul” and Quibi announced two hosts for the doghouse construction reality show “Barkitecture.”

A familiar face from the Breaking Bad universe will be resurrected in Better Call Saul Season 5, and we finally have a look at his return. On Wednesday, AMC released the first full trailer for the new season of the hit prequel series, and it teases that Hank Schrader (Dean Norris) is about to find himself in Jimmy McGill's (Bob Odenkirk) territory — unless it's the other way around.

On Monday (Jan. 27), Wynn Nightlife announced its 2020 residency roster, with the lineup including a collection of longstanding Wynn residents DJs and the introductoin of a few fresh faces. 

Filmdom’s battle between the haves and have-nots moved off-screen when Oscar nominations were announced earlier this month: Four films scored 10 or more nominations, with Todd Phillips’ “Joker,” leading the pack with 11, and Sam Mendes’ World War I nail-biter “1917,” Martin Scorsese’s epic gangster tale “The Irishman” and Quentin Tarantino’s retro “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” trailing a tick behind at 10 each. It’s rare for three films to land 10 or more nominations, let alone four.

AMC's Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul is moving closer to its endgame as the second-to-last season premieres in just a month. So if you're hoping to catch up on the latest season — or watch all of the first four seasons — before the drama returns for Season 5, you're in luck.

Latin TV personality Ana María Polo and Chile’s Forastero, producer of the Golden Globe-nominated film “The Maid,” are teaming to develop and produce a feature based on her renowned Telemundo show “Caso Cerrado.”

MADRID — Bowing as the demand for premium Spanish-language content still outruns its supply, Chile’s Screen Capital is launching a $20 million venture capital fund targeting principally TV series and movies with part streaming platform distribution.

Based on true events, “Dignity,” a Chile-Germany co-production from co-creators Maria Elena Wood and Patricio Pereira, head writer-producer Andreas Gutzeit and director Julio Jorquera, has been a hit since its launch as the first original series from German digital platform Joyn, a streaming service run jointly by Discovery and German media giant ProSiebenSat.
