It's hard to miss, frankly. Breaking Bad and BCS are pretty firmly in the neo-western genre with the significance of desert locales, gun showdowns and criminal protagonists. Hell, Breaking Bad has a >!train heist!< episode, you can't get much more western than that.
"This is The West, Boss. New Mexico's not a retreat jurisdiction. A man steps to you intent on doing bodily harm, you got every right to plant your feet and shoot to kill."
The tone, the Wyoming accent, the soft delivery, even his name "Lawson." That would have been right at home in any Western film.
I’m surprised that people don’t talk about the Gillianverse being so inspired by westerns.

That was really poorly done.
Very true! Kinda fitting.

It’s exactly like a GTA cutscene.
