In trouble in Albuquerque and need a lawyer? Better Call Saul. No really, you can call Saul - there's a working number. 505-842-5662.

Instagram user Vince Aragon shared a photo of a billboard teasing the Breaking Bad spinoff, starring actor/comedian Bob Odenkirk as Saul.

The billboard - spotted on southbound I-25 in Albuquerque - features Odenkirk in an obvious toupee and obligatory lawyer suit. When the phone number is called, a machine picks up with the following message, delivered in an over-the-top Irish accent: "Hello! You've reached the law offices of James M. McGill, Esq., a lawyer you can trust. Kindly leave your information at the tone and Mr. McGill will phone you ... promptly." (Turns out, there there is no tone, nor is there a place to leave a message. AMC has yet to comment.)

Saul is known James "Jimmy" McGill in the spinoff, which takes place a full six years before he meets Bryan Cranston's Walter White.

Better Call Saul follows Jimmy/Saul's adventures as "Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny."

The show, already approved for two seasons, will begin its run sometime next year and will take place before during and after the events of Breaking Bad.

The cast of Better Call Saul also includes Breaking Bad's Jonathan Banks as "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut, Michael McKean as Saul's brother Chuck, House of Lies' Rhea Seehorn as Kim, Big Love's Patrick Fabian as Hamlin and Orphan Black's Michael Mando as Nacho.

Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan will executive produce, alongside Emmy-winning scribe Peter Gould.
