10 Other Breaking Bad Characters Who Should Get A Spin-Off

1. Hank

The Wire meets Home Improvement, a show giving Henry R. Schrader free rein is the spin-off we€™d most like to see. When we first met Hank at Walt€™s birthday party in the show€™s pilot episode, he had €˜blowhard b*tthole brother-in-law€™ written all over him. Fortunately, Breaking Bad€™s tendency to constantly spring surprises and subvert expectations didn€™t skip over Hank, who started out as a cocksure, annoying impediment to our hero Walt€™s attempts to turn the tables on life and ended up being the guy you were truly rooting for. The reasons for that went beyond Walt going full measure and becoming a mass-murdering sociopath €“ it was hard not to love Hank. His actions were reprehensible on occasion €“ his treatment of Nurse Marie in Season 4 was brutal €“ but, more often than not, Hank was a bigmouth with a big heart and, against all odds, became the moral centre of the show.
Amateur comedian, mineral lover and Schraderbräu proprietor, ASAC Schrader could easily sustain his own show, which would take us deep into the inner workings of the DEA and, more importantly, the deceptively savvy brain hiding inside that bald head. All hail the new Kojak. The idea of yet another police procedural not doing it for you? How about Schraders of the Lost Ark, where Hank leaves the DEA behind to become an archaeologist/adventurer? Or Tomb Schrader, roughly the same principle only Hank wears very tight shorts? Don€™t worry, we already went and got our coats. These spin-off ideas not spinning your wheels? Let your imagination run wild in the comments section and we€™ll put a word in Vince Gilligan€™s ear.

I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
