‘Better Call Saul’ ends

November 3, 2022

On Aug. 15, AMC’s hit show “Better Call Saul” drew its final curtain. Stars of this slow-burn crime drama, Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seehorn, Giancarlo Esposito, Patrick Fabian, Tony Dalton and Michael Mando took their final bows and along with show creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould expressed gratitude and special thanks to their fans. The ratings had averaged at about 2.2 million per episode throughout all six seasons according to the Nielsen Live+3 all the way to the last episode, “Series Finale.”

This “Breaking Bad” spinoff takes place approximately six years before the “Breaking Bad” events. The show focused on Jimmy McGill (Odenkirk) and his shenanigans within the confines of the law in order to win the case; anywhere from placing a doppelganger at the defense table only to point out the real defendant in the audience in open court, to hiding in a dumpster to spy on Sand- piper staff to prove their wrongdoing. The show has very little to do with drug trafficking, much less would the audience need to see, it pretty much stands on its own two legs.
