--------------------------------------------------------------
As production continues on the upcoming final season of Better
Call Saul, AMC has officially announced the development of an
animated spinoff series titled Slippin' Jimmy, based on the
acclaimed Bob Odenkirk-led Breaking Bad prequel. They also
confirmed that a brand new season for Better Call Saul
Employee Training is also currently in the works.

The most recent season of the minisodes web series, which
centered around Rhea Seehorn's Kim Wexler, have previously
won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Short Form Comedy or Drama
Series. Further details about the two new projects are still
under wraps and its still unclear if Odenkirk will be also
lending his voice in the animated spinoff.

The Breaking Bad prequel series stars Bob Odenkirk as Jimmy
McGill/Saul Goodman, Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler, Michael
McKean as Chuck McGill Jr,, Patrick Fabian as Howard Hamlin, 
Jonathan Banks as Mike Ehrmantraut, Michael Mando as Nacho
Vargo and Giancarlo Esposito as Gus Fring.

In Season 5, Jimmy McGill's decision to practice law as
"Saul Goodman" creates unexpected and profound waves of
change for those in his orbit. Last season also featured the
return of Breaking Bad fan favorites Dean Norris and Steven
Michael Quezada, who are reprising their roles as Hank
Schrader and Steven Gomez.

The critically acclaimed drama is created by Peter Gould and
Vince Gilligan, who are serving as executive producers along
with Mark Johnson, Melissa Bernstein, Thomas Schnauz and
Gennifer Hutchison. The series recently garnered a 2018
Peabody Award, and, over three seasons, has earned 23 Emmy
Award nominations, three Golden Globe Award nominations, two
Writers Guild Awards, three Critics' Choice Awards, a
Television Critics Association Award and two AFI Awards for
"TV Programs of the Year," among many other Guild
nominations.
