10 Alternative Breaking Bad Spin-Offs To Better Call Saul

7. Eliot & Gretchen Schwartz And The Rise Of Grey Matter

What really happened with Grey Matter Technologies? What exactly made Walter White up and leave, selling his stake for a pittance when he was just months away from making billions? This remains one of the most ambiguous aspects of Vince Gilligan's series, and a prequel looking into the ins and outs of Grey Matter could be a hugely satisfying spin-off show for fans who've been hungry for the truth about company that continued to drive Walt into carving himself his own ruthless empire. Eliot and Gretchen have an awkward, strained relationship with Walt during Breaking Bad, and although the specifics are left vague and fuzzy, we do see a brief flashback in the third episode to what appears to be a healthy and loving relationship between Walt and Gretchen back in their youth. It's likely that Walt considers Eliot as having stolen the woman he was supposed to be with, the business he was supposed to run, and the life that he was supposed to live. And this makes the notion of a prequel that depicts Walt's exit from Grey Matter all-the-more intriguing.
