20 Big Questions About 2017's Most Hotly Anticipated TV Shows

8. What'll Happen To Jimmy? - Better Call Saul

Over two seasons, Better Call Saul has really managed to come out of the shadow of Breaking Bad, standing as one of the best, most thoughtfully character-driven and quietly tragic shows on TV.

The first year was good, but Season 2 saw it really come into its own, and left things in a precarious position heading into Season 3 - which will arrive this April.

Of course, dominating the headlines is the return of Gus Fring, teased at the end of Season 2, before appearing in a Los Pollos Hermanos teaser.

While that's obviously exciting, the meat of the story still rests with Slippin' Jimmy McGill, who has been caught in a trap by his brother Chuck. The story has to balance things going wrong for Jimmy - hence him becoming Saul - without too much too fast (he can't become Saul yet), so just how is Jimmy going to get himself out of this one?
