He said that he also has no idea whether Gus Fring would show up in one, two, three, or more episodes in Season 3 of “Better Call Saul” because only show creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould know.
The actor said that the writers of “Better Call Saul” always do clever things by leaving clues all over the show. So that’s when they thought about using the acronym or the first letter of each episode of Season 2.
He revealed that the people behind the show were actually surprised to find out that fans were able to decipher the Easter egg that they left.
Some fans have been speculating that Season 3 of “Better Call Saul” will finally see Gus Fring as a closet gay.
During his guesting in “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Odenkirk did not confirm such speculation about Gus Fring but he said that his character shall be looking for the man, whom he said shall be right in the first episode of Season 3 of “Better Call Saul.”
The actor also said that the upcoming third season, which is likely to premiere on AMC in February next year, shall see Jimmy McGill getting his innocence torn away, which could be an indication again that his transformation to Saul Goodman is drawing near.
