ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — "Better Call Saul" is coming back for a second season.

New Mexico Film Office Director Nick Maniatis announced Tuesday that AMC has renewed the "Breaking Bad" spinoff starring Bob Odenkirk and it again will be filmed in Albuquerque.

Officials say "Better Call Saul," produced by Sony Pictures Television, will employ at least 75 to 90 New Mexico crewmembers.

"Better Call Saul" follows Jimmy McGill, played by Odenkirk, who later changes his name to Saul Goodman and becomes an attorney for drug lords in "Breaking Bad."

Odenkirk played the lawyer of Bryan Cranston's character, methamphetamine lord Walter White, in "Breaking Bad." That AMC series was also filmed in Albuquerque.
