CALL SAUL. From the acting to the cinematography, this series consistently finds ways to outdo itself.

Viewers and fans of the immensely popular TV show Breaking Bad may recognize the phrase “Better Call Saul” from the later seasons of the show, which is also the name of the spinoff show in the Breaking Bad franchise.

Better Call Saul acts as a prequel to Breaking Bad, following several key characters such as Jimmy McGill A.K.A. Saul Goodman, (Bob Odenkirk), Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks), and Gustavo Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) in their lives leading up to the starting point of Breaking Bad.

The sixth and final season of Better Call Saul released in April with the final episode available Aug. 15. Since the final season is still unreleased to several viewing platforms, fans are wondering if it is worth an additional cost to watch the final season at AMC+ or to purchase episodes on other platforms, and the answer is yes.

From the acting to the cinematography, this series consistently finds ways to outdo itself.

Rating:★★★★

Better Call Saul can be watched on Apple iTunes, Amazon Video, and other platforms.
