Series creators and executive producers Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould and star Bob Odenkirk (Jimmy McGill) will appear as guests on the show's debut episode.

"The 'Talking' franchise really started as a way to serve the fans by harnessing and providing a focal point for discussion around our original programming, and heading into its second season it's clear Vince Gilligan, Peter Gould and everyone associated with 'Better Call Saul' have given rise to both a vibrant fan community and plenty to talk about," said Joel Stillerman, president of original programming and development for AMC and SundanceTV. "We are excited to have Chris Hardwick on board as host to engage the show's dedicated and loyal fans - many of whom have followed the characters of Saul Goodman and Mike Ehrmantraut since 'Breaking Bad' - in a meaningful and entertaining conversation around the series."

"Talking Saul" is produced by Embassy Row with executive producers Michael Davies, Hardwick, Jen Patton, Brandon Monk and Brillstein Entertainment Partners.

Having arrived at a fork in the road, will Jimmy take the straight and narrow path with a safe corporate job or will he fall back into his "Slippin' Jimmy" con-artist ways?
