Odenkirk played Saul Goodman on "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul." Breaking Bad is considered one of the best TV shows in history by many. He also starred in the Movie "Nobody"

Earlier in his career he was a writer for SNL. In 1993 he wrote the Skit "Matt Foley, Motivational Speaker" starring Chris Farley.  Rolling Stone voted it the best SNL skit in history.

I assume you know that Chris Farley graduated from MU.

Odenkirk was from Naperville (as noted above) and attended MU for two years before transferring to SIU, where he graduated.

So the greatest SNL skit in history was written by one MU Alum and performed by another MU Alum. The greatest TV shows in history had an MU Alum as a central character.

In keeping with this thread, I guess Odenkirk is not an MU alum because he did not finish at MU so he is dead to everyone here.

Correct

I'm a big Bob Odenkirk fan. A few seasons of Better Call Saul were every bit as good as Breaking Bad. Just awesome stuff.

But I do not know the answer to this:

Does Odenkirk embrace his Marquette experience? Is he happy he went to our wonderful alma mater? Or does he ignore it, like Wahoo's finest 2021 NCAAT first-round loser does?

Let bring Bob Back! He really is one of the best. Its all good man.

In addition to all his other accomplishments, Odenkirk's role as the former porn star Gil Bang  in an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm is one of the funniest half hours of TV ever --- The secret is hot sauce.
Odenkirk was also hilarious as Larry Sander's agent.
