I don’t know about you, but my jaw is still hanging on the floor after Better Call Saul’s unsurprisingly masterful penultimate episode on Monday night, titled simply Waterworks. Which, as we now know, was a sly reference of sorts to not only Kim Wexler’s soul-crushingly boring new job at Palm Coast Sprinklers in Florida. But, …
It somehow feels incomplete to simply describe Monday night’s episode of Better Call Saul — Episode 11, titled Breaking Bad — as an oh-so-satisfying small screen masterpiece. Not only did the show give us the long-hinted-at reappearances of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, thus bringing both the original series and its critically acclaimed prequel full …
It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt. Or, until Better Call Saul’s Jimmy McGill and Kim Wexler successfully pull off a long con and set up a nice payday for themselves. Only to then watch a colleague shot to death in their apartment by a psychotic cartel boss, a turn of events that …
“Shhhhh. Let’s talk.” Those were the last words we heard at the end of the Season 6 mid-season finale of Better Call Saul, right after Lalo Salamanca coldly shot Howard Hamlin in the head. Lalo directed those words at Jimmy McGill and Kim Wexler as they were mid-freakout — a natural reaction, of course, when …
Now that we’re about to begin the back half of 2022, I thought it would be interesting to look back at the mountain of programming that the major streaming services all rolled out over the course of this year to build out what I guess you could say amounts to a sort of streaming hall …

It was the beginning of the end for the show, as the episode served to tee up a final run of episodes returning in July that will finish …
Well, now we know. No sooner did I walk through the details on Monday of the last time we saw Lalo Salamanca in this season of Better Call Saul — in which I also noted a fan theory that he’s headed to investigate whatever happened to Werner Ziegler — than Lalo reappeared, finally, and did …
The last we saw of Lalo Salamanca in what’s been a fantastic Better Call Saul Season 6 so far, he was riding in the back of a pickup truck along a dusty road, a bandana obscuring part of his face. His arms were crossed as he sat motionless, staring into the distance, clearly intent on …
In the pantheon of Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul episodes, this one will go down as an all-time classic. Largely for the devastating death scene at the end — which we’ll come to. So, you know, *spoilers.* That said, let’s dive in. The narrative in Episode 3 (titled Rock and Hard Place) of Better Call Saul’s …
Everyone’s favorite sleazy lawyer with a heart of gold is back. In the final season of AMC’s Better Call Saul, which debuts tonight, Jimmy McGill aka Saul Goodman continues the inexorable transformation into his Breaking Bad persona — as the lawyer who wears ill-fitting suits and garish ties, represents shady defendants, and whose name itself …
