8 Incredible Easter Eggs Hidden Within TV Show Intros

No matter what way you look at it, the intro for Better Call Saul is incredibly unique. Initially it's pretty jarring – it's extremely short, and seems to cut off a little bit too early, as if there's some sort of problem with the broadcast. But it's also quite charming, throwing out a bunch of obscure images each week alongside catchy, twangy guitar.

Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan is known for his subtle hints and visual cues, so it's no surprise to find something similar at work in Better Call Saul's intro. For a start, there's a recurring image of an inflatable Statue of Liberty. According to Gilligan himself, this is actually taken from the episode in Breaking Bad in which we first meet Saul Goodman, as the statue sways above his shady office.

On top of that, season two of the show sees the usually colourful intro occasionally slip into black in white. This works well with the crappy aesthetic of the thing, but it actually has a deeper meaning. We know from watching the show that events that take place in the “present” (that is, post-Breaking Bad) are depicted in black and white.
