But why do they do it in TV series as well? It’s not like I’m watching better call Saul in cinema.

The people that made it probably wanted to make the audio sound best for the one person that has a great sound system, there's a good YouTube video about it https://youtu.be/VYJtb2YXae8

Exactly! My comment above was in reference to Breaking Bad (not something in theaters). I'm watching this thru probably for the fifth time but the really quiet skyler and walt whispering dialogue (crank to 32 to hear) takes time so i missed part of it. Volume averages at 10 in my living room. Then have to be johnny on the spot and hope that 32 gets back to 10 before the whispering is over. And good help you if you're watching subtitles because the volume indicator appears right over them.
