They weren’t show runners on that show. Most people aren’t gonna walk around and credit Michelle McClaren Or Rian Johnson for Breaking Bad instead of Vince Gilligan just because they directed and wrote some of the best episodes of the show. They are going to credit Gilligan.
But the first season was at least watchable
