List of episodes

The sixth and final season of the AMC television series Better Call Saul premiered on April 18, 2022, in the United States, and concluded on August 15, 2022. The thirteen-episode season was broadcast on Mondays at 9:00 pm (Eastern) in the United States on AMC and AMC+, and was published on Netflix the Tuesday after outside of the United States. The season was split into two parts; the first concluded on May 23, 2022, before resuming with the second half on July 11. Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seehorn, Patrick Fabian, Michael Mando, Tony Dalton, and Giancarlo Esposito reprise their roles from previous seasons. Better Call Saul is a spin-off, prequel, and sequel of Breaking Bad created by Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould.

The sixth season picks up where the fifth left off. The first nine episodes mainly take place in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2004, four years before Jimmy McGill (Odenkirk) meets Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul). The season shows the further evolution of Jimmy into the eponymous character, criminal defense lawyer "Saul Goodman", as he and his wife Kim Wexler (Seehorn) execute their plan to ruin the career of Howard Hamlin (Fabian) to force a resolution of the Sandpiper case. Simultaneously, it depicts the drug cartel's reactions to the assassination attempt on Lalo Salamanca (Dalton). The remaining episodes take place in 2010, after the events of Breaking Bad, and show Saul living in Omaha, Nebraska as "Gene Takavic", hiding from the law.

The sixth season was filmed over a period of eleven months in Albuquerque. Upon release, it received universal acclaim from critics, particularly for its performances, writing, visuals, emotional weight, and similarity to Breaking Bad compared to earlier seasons. The season's first half received four nominations at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards, including for Outstanding Drama Series.

Development

Co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould

In January 2020, AMC renewed Better Call Saul for a sixth and final season. Showrunner Peter Gould and AMC representatives confirmed it would consist of 13 episodes,[1] higher than the usual 10.[7] This brought the series' total episode count to 63, one more than its predecessor Breaking Bad. Gould stated, "From the beginning when we started this, I think all our hopes and dreams were to be able to tell the whole story ... and make it to be a complete story from beginning to end ... We're going to try like hell to stick the landing of these 63 episodes."[1] Giancarlo Esposito had previously speculated in April 2019 that the series would end with a sixth season because it was the "comfortable way" to do so, similar to how Breaking Bad's fifth and final season was split into two halves, giving the feel that the latter half was the sixth season.[8] Gould said he initially doubted how he could do 13 episodes because the 10-episode count of previous seasons proved physically exhausting for him, but executive producer and writer Thomas Schnauz convinced him to go for 13, saying, "You'll know it's the last 13 so you'll see the barn in the distance. You'll be like the horse that gallops down the last bit."[9]

Writing

In February 2020, Gould suggested the sixth season would explore Saul Goodman's flashforwards as Gene Takavic to a greater extent than previous seasons.[10] By April 2020, scripting for the season had already begun. Gould did not want the season to be anticlimactic, so, to deliver a satisfactory conclusion to Better Call Saul, he brought co-creator Vince Gilligan back to the writer's room "for a good chunk of the season".[4] Gilligan had not been involved in the writers' room since early in season three.[11] By December 2020, scripting was still not complete, with Gould saying the writers having to communicate through Zoom, rather than in person, was like "trying to dance in quick sand".[12]

Gould later said the season would explore if there was any way for Saul to earn redemption after all his criminal activities throughout the series.[13] During filming of the season, series star Bob Odenkirk said that Gould told him that "when Better Call Saul is done it will shed new light ... you will see Breaking Bad and the story of Breaking Bad in a different way", comparing to its final season where Gilligan had "start[ed] knocking things down and start[ed] lighting fires and burning everything down".[14]

Casting

A noted fan of the series, Carol Burnett portrays Marion during the Gene timeline beginning with the episode "Nippy".

Laura Fraser, who portrayed Lydia Rodarte-Quayle in both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, confirmed after the announcement of the premiere date that she was unable to reprise her role for the final season. This was due to COVID-19 restrictions preventing travel between the United States and Scotland, where she lived when the final season began filming.[15] Prior to the season premiere, it was announced that Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul would reprise their roles from Breaking Bad for the final season as Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, respectively.[16]

During the mid-season break, it was announced that the latter half of the season would feature Carol Burnett in the role of Marion, although details about the character were not disclosed.[17] It was also revealed that the character of Jeff, the cab driver who recognized Saul in Omaha, had been recast from Don Harvey to Pat Healy. Fans theorized this was due to Harvey's filming commitments on We Own This City.[18][19] Harvey later expressed disappointment in not being able to reprise the role due to scheduling conflicts, but praised Healy for making the character his own.[20]

Filming

COVID-19 delays

In April 2020, Michael Mando and Tony Dalton separately said filming was scheduled to begin that September, but both were unsure if it would be delayed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[5][21] Rhea Seehorn said in July that filming would not begin until it was safe to do so.[22] In August, producer Mark Johnson said the pandemic could limit where the series films by eschewing specific indoor locations: "Like a lot of other people, we're going to have to be very creative in where and how we shoot [...] A lot of places just won't let you in [...] We don't want everything to be a chamber piece".[23] In the same month, Gould said filming was unlikely to start in 2020 due to the pandemic, adding that while Sony Pictures Television was doing "everything humanly" possible for the series to resume filming safely, "I think we are probably going to delay a little bit unfortunately."[24] In October, Esposito said filming would begin in March 2021,[25] which was echoed by Odenkirk in February 2021.[26]

Filming officially began on March 10, 2021, in New Mexico.[27][28] Each episode was expected to take about three weeks to film, a longer filming schedule compared to previous seasons, where a typical episode was filmed in nine days.[14][29] Cranston and Paul were flown in to Albuquerque and filmed their scenes in April 2021.[30] Their roles were kept in absolutely secrecy, with both actors kept out of sight when not on set, similar to Cranston's cameo in El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie.[31] They stayed in Alburquerque for four days at an Airbnb, with all wardrobe and makeup done in the home and only leaving to be taken on site to shoot.[32] They appeared in one scene together as well as one individual scene each.[33] The Cinnabon scenes in Better Call Saul are set in Omaha, but are filmed at the Cottonwood Mall in Albuquerque.[34] Production was predicted to last roughly eight months, but filming instead wrapped after eleven months on February 9, 2022.[35][36]

Additional filming was done in March 2022, after principal photography for the series ended, for the opening teaser of "Point and Shoot". With several crew members but no cast members on hand, the scene was filmed in Leo Carrillo State Beach, California. This was the only time the series was filmed outside of New Mexico.[37]: 1:00:01–1:01:29 [38]

Odenkirk's on-set collapse

"We were shooting a scene, we'd been shooting all day, and luckily I didn't go back to my trailer. I went to play the Cubs game and ride my workout bike, and I just went down. Rhea said I started turning bluish-gray right away."

 —Bob Odenkirk[39]

On July 27, 2021, after filming a "Point and Shoot" scene for twelve hours, Odenkirk was riding his exercise bike when he suffered a heart attack.[40][41] Seehorn, Fabian, and Dalton were nearby and immediately called for help upon seeing him collapse.[42]: 48:43–54:10 [43] Health Safety Supervisor Rosa Estrada and Assistant Director Angie Meyer administered CPR and deployed an automated defibrillator; it took three attempts for his pulse to return. Odenkirk was rushed to Presbyterian Hospital, where two stents were put in his body to relieve plaque buildup.[44][45][46] Odenkirk was treated without further surgery and took a five-week break from filming, requiring production to make accommodating schedule changes.[40][47] In mid-August, Dalton said scenes not involving Odenkirk were being filmed, but Odenkirk had not yet been given clearance to return.[48] Odenkirk confirmed by early September 2021 that he was back on set filming.[49]

Averted IATSE strike

In October 2021, a potential strike by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) would have resulted in all productions in the New Mexico film and television industry shutting down, including Better Call Saul.[50] Odenkirk, Gould, New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham and several members of the New Mexico state legislature voiced their support for the IATSE and for creating better working conditions for the unionized crew members.[51][52][53] On October 16, 2021, a tentative agreement was made before the deadline between the IATSE and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, temporarily averting a strike.[54] The contract was ratified by the IATSE members on November 15, 2021, ending all prospects of a strike and allowing production to continue without interruption.[55]

In a flashforward, police seize personal property from Saul Goodman's mansion, including his white Cadillac. As a cabinet is loaded onto a truck, a drawer opens and Kim's souvenir tequila bottle stopper falls to the ground. In the present, Gus arranges for Nacho to hide at a motel. Juan Bolsa tells Gus that Nacho aided in killing Lalo and that the cartel has placed a bounty on him. Jimmy and Kim begin their plan to force a resolution of the Sandpiper case by discrediting Howard. Kim sees Howard and Cliff Main during a round of golf, while Jimmy sneaks into the club locker room to plant a bag resembling cocaine in Howard's locker. Lalo arrives at the home of his tenants Sylvia and Mateo, kills them, and moves Mateo's body to his home to be identified as his. Lalo lets Hector know he is alive and that he believes Gus planned the attack, with Hector advising him to find proof. Lalo realizes the proof is not in the United States and abandons his plan to sneak across the border.
522"Carrot and Stick"Vince GilliganThomas Schnauz & Ariel LevineApril 18, 2022 (2022-04-18)1.16[56]
Gus's men replace Nacho's safe with a duplicate, into which Mike places Nacho's cash and fake Canadian ID along with an envelope. Gus and Bolsa promise Hector they will avenge Lalo, but Hector's demeanor convinces Gus that Lalo is alive. Bolsa breaks into the duplicate safe at Nacho's house and finds the envelope, which contains details of an offshore bank account as well as the motel's phone number. The Cousins arrive at the motel to capture Nacho, but he escapes after a shootout. Gus orders Nacho's father, Manuel, taken hostage to force Nacho to give up his location; Mike refuses, prompting a standoff with Gus and Tyrus. Nacho calls Mike asking to speak to Gus. Jimmy meets the Kettlemans at their fraudulent tax preparation service and cons them into believing they have grounds for a lawsuit against Howard. They reject his services and instead ask Cliff Main to sue for ineffective counsel over Howard's alleged cocaine usage during Craig's embezzlement case, but he refuses. Kim then coerces the Kettlemans into returning the tax money and remaining silent about Howard. They then leave, with an unknown person following them.
533"Rock and Hard Place"Gordon SmithGordon SmithApril 25, 2022 (2022-04-25)1.16[57]
Nacho's truck is damaged from the firefight with the Cousins, forcing him to hide. The next day, he arrives at a mechanic's shop, contacts his father, then calls Gus and offers to surrender if his father is protected. Jimmy and Kim plot to obtain a duplicate of Howard's car but realize that obtaining access to the car itself is more feasible. With Lalo's fake identity being exposed, prosecutor Suzanne Ericsen connects Jimmy to Lalo and asks Kim to persuade Jimmy to reveal information about Lalo. Gus arranges for Nacho to be smuggled into the U.S., while Nacho and Mike enact Gus's plan to absolve Gus from blame for Lalo's death. Jimmy and Kim work with Huell to obtain duplicates of Howard's car key and remote unlock button. Mike takes a firing position with his rifle to monitor Nacho's execution by the cartel. Nacho lies about his efforts to kill Lalo for the Alvarez drug family, but tells the truth about his attempt to kill Hector. Rather than feign escape so Victor can kill him, Nacho uses a piece of broken glass to free himself, then kills himself with Bolsa's gun.
544"Hit and Run"Rhea SeehornAnn CherkisMay 2, 2022 (2022-05-02)1.16[58]
Kim meets with Cliff Main at a coffee shop while Jimmy, disguised himself as Howard, takes his car. He picks up Wendy from a motel, then pretends to force her out of the car while driving past the shop, making it appear as if Howard is harassing prostitutes. While dropping off Wendy, Kim notices a car following her. Jimmy discovers that defending Lalo has made him disliked among his colleagues, but improved his reputation, with local criminals wanting his representation. After being kicked out of the nail salon for attracting high traffic, Jimmy scouts a new office. While meeting a pro bono client, Kim again spots the car that is following her and confronts the drivers. Mike reveals that the people following her work for him, and tells her Lalo is alive and monitoring anyone he may contact. Kim, disturbed, meets with Jimmy at the potential location of his new office and approves of it, but does not reveal her conversation with Mike. Gus uses a neighboring home connected to his via a tunnel system as an operations center where his men use Mike’s supervision monitors to try and find Lalo.
555"Black and Blue"Melissa BernsteinAlison TatlockMay 9, 2022 (2022-05-09)1.22[59]

Calling Hector, he tells Hector he will attack Gus that night after realizing Gus's men monitored his call.

Lalo provides Jimmy with instructions to arrive at Gus's house and shoot him. Jimmy convinces Lalo to send Kim instead for her safety. Lalo then ties Jimmy to a chair and leaves. Kim is apprehended at Gus's front door by Mike, to whom she explains the situation. Mike orders his men to their apartment. When Kim says Lalo agreed to her switching places with Jimmy, Gus deduces that the shooting attempt is a diversion and drives to the laundry.

Gus triggers a power outage and kills Lalo with the handgun he previously hid, though he is wounded. Mike and his men remove Howard's body from Jimmy's and Kim's apartment and stage his death to look like a suicide.

Mike then supervises the burial of Howard’s and Lalo’s bodies in Gus’s underground lab.
599"Fun and Games"Michael MorrisAnn CherkisJuly 18, 2022 (2022-07-18)1.22[63]
Gus convinces the cartel that he was not responsible for Lalo's death, despite Hector's accusations. Eladio grants the Salamancas the South Valley while giving Gus the territory north of it, under Bolsa's supervision. Gus later goes to a wine bar and converses with its sommelier, but cuts the outing short and orders construction on the lab to resume. Mike visits Manuel Varga to inform him of Nacho's death and tells him he will protect him, but Manuel disapproves, dismissing his offer of protection as a revenge plot, and tells him he is no different from his associated criminals. At Howard's memorial, Jimmy and Kim learn that HHM is downsizing and rebranding, and Kim lies to Howard's widow, Cheryl, about his alleged addiction. Kim relinquishes her law license and leaves Jimmy, telling him that, even though she loves him, they are bad for each other. An unspecified amount of time later, Jimmy has fully embraced his Saul Goodman image – he is living in a mansion and driving a Cadillac DeVille, and he has given his office a new look: the same tacky style in which it appears in Breaking Bad.
6010"Nippy"Michelle MacLarenAlison TatlockJuly 25, 2022 (2022-07-25)1.20[65]
In Omaha in 2010, Jimmy, using his Gene Takavic alias, befriends Marion, the mother of Jeff, a cab driver who had recognized him as Saul Goodman.[a][b] Gene confronts Jeff and offers to let him into "the game". He trains Jeff and his partner Buddy in robbing a department store at the mall where he works. Gene does his part by befriending and distracting the mall's security guards with cinnamon rolls and small talk, while Jeff steals expensive merchandise under a strict time limit. However, Jeff trips on a slippery floor and hits his head; Gene gains him extra time by feigning an emotional breakdown to distract the security guard. The three get away with thousands of dollars in stolen goods, but Gene warns Jeff and Buddy to avoid him in the future, threatening to turn them in to the authorities – even if it means getting caught himself. Energized by the robbery’s success, Gene finds a Goodman-style suit in the department store, but then wistfully leaves without purchasing it.
6111"Breaking Bad"Thomas SchnauzThomas SchnauzAugust 1, 2022 (2022-08-01)1.34[66]
In flashbacks to 2008 in Albuquerque, Saul takes on Walter White and Jesse Pinkman as clients, deducing the former to be "Heisenberg" – the chemist behind the high-purity blue methamphetamine being sold on the streets. Mike informs Saul that Walt has terminal lung cancer and cautions Saul against helping him, but Saul nonetheless decides to visit Walt in his high school classroom to propose a partnership. In 2010, Gene calls Francesca, who tells him that the FBI has seized most of his assets, and that Kim asked about him. Gene attempts to reach Kim in Florida, but the call emotionally upsets him. Gene then enlists Jeff and Buddy for a new con in which Gene gets the victim drunk, Jeff drives him home while giving him water laced with barbiturates, and Buddy enters his home to photograph IDs, credit cards, and financial records to sell for profit. After a string of successful cons, their latest target reveals he has cancer, causing Buddy to back out; Gene fires him and forces Jeff to drive him to the man's home, where he breaks in.
6212"Waterworks"Vince GilliganVince GilliganAugust 8, 2022 (2022-08-08)1.32[67]
In a flashback, Kim meets with Saul to finalize their divorce and has an encounter with Jesse outside his office. In 2010, she gets a call from Gene in Florida at her sprinkler manufacturer job, where she asks him to turn himself in and hangs up when he refuses. Guilt-stricken, she travels to Albuquerque and gives Howard’s wife, Cheryl, a copy of an affidavit she’s supplied to the D.A., which lays out her and Jimmy's destruction of Howard's reputation and the circumstances of his death. Afterward, she has an emotional breakdown on the bus. Gene narrowly escapes the cancer-stricken man's house after he wakes up. Jeff is arrested and blamed for the burglary after he panics and runs into another car when a police car idles behind him, forcing Gene to enlist Marion to help him get out on bail. Suspicious, Marion uses the new computer Jeff bought her with the department store money to search for Gene's true identity on Ask Jeeves, and calls the authorities with her Life Alert button when Gene tries to intimidate her, forcing him to flee.
6313"Saul Gone"Peter GouldPeter GouldAugust 15, 2022 (2022-08-15)1.80[68]
In separate flashbacks, Saul asks Mike and Walter about their regrets; another flashback shows Chuck asking Jimmy whether he ever considered a different path in life. In 2010, Gene is caught and arrested, enlisting former rival Bill Oakley as his co-counsel and negotiating a deal for only seven years in prison, claiming to be a victim of Walt's schemes. He also offers to confess to Howard's death, only to learn that Kim has already done so. Saul is extradited to Albuquerque for his trial and lies about new testimony involving Kim to get her to appear in court. He then admits his full involvement in Walt's empire and Chuck's suicide, and reverts to using the name James McGill; he is given an 86-year sentence. Jimmy is recognized as Saul in prison and enjoys notoriety among his fellow inmates. Kim visits him and the two share a cigarette. As she leaves, Jimmy makes his signature finger-gun gesture at her.

Broadcast

When the sixth season was ordered in January 2020, it was scheduled to premiere in 2021.[1] However, in April 2020, Gilligan said that would depend on whether the cast and crew would be able to film in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[69] In February 2021, AMC confirmed that the sixth season would likely premiere in the first quarter of 2022.[70] Gould's preference was to have all 13 episodes of the sixth season aired weekly and not for the season to be split in any manner; however, he noted that only AMC would decide the scheduling.[71]

In early November 2021, Variety reported that the season would air over two halves,[72] which was confirmed on the official announcement date in February 2022. The first seven episodes began airing on April 18, 2022, and the last six episodes aired starting July 11, 2022, with a seven-week break in between both halves.[73] This was a shorter break compared to the split final season of Breaking Bad, where the two halves aired a year apart.[74] The split allowed the show to nominate each half of the season for different Emmy Awards ceremonies, as the first half was eligible for the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards in 2022, while eligibility for the next year's ceremony began in June.[75] Gould said they did not know the season would be split into two parts until AMC announced it.[76]

The season premiere screened early for fans who attended PaleyFest in Los Angeles on April 9, 2022.[77] The mid-season premiere received an early screening during Tribeca Festival in New York on June 18, 2022.[78]

Each episode would air on AMC at 9:00 pm (ET) on Mondays, though the first two episodes premiered back-to-back on the same night. During the season's run, each episode would be available to stream the day they premiered on AMC+, AMC's streaming service which first launched in June 2020.[79][80] The season premiere resulted in the biggest day of new subscriber sign-ups for AMC+, and by the mid-season finale episodic viewership on the streaming service rose by 61%.[79][81] During the release of the series finale on AMC+, the app experienced an outage, causing many users to be logged out.[82] AMC later reported that first-day viewing numbers for the finale on AMC+ was four times as big as the season premiere, and called the series' final season the highest acquisition driver in the history of the streaming service.[83]

In certain international markets, like previous seasons of the series, sixth-season episodes were released on Netflix and other streaming services the day after their broadcast on AMC.[84]

American Greed: James McGill

On April 1, 2022, a few weeks before the season premiere, the CNBC Prime YouTube account uploaded American Greed: James McGill.[92] Written by Peter Gould's assistant Valerie Chu, the ten-minute short is a mockumentary done in the style of the documentary series American Greed and recaps the events of both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.[93] Narrated by Stacy Keach, the mockumentary has interviews of several recurring Better Call Saul characters, including DA Suzanne Ericsen (Julie Pearl), Deputy DA Bill Oakley (Peter Diseth), and Kim Wexler's former boss Rich Schweikart (Dennis Boutsikaris). Also making reappearances are Betsy and Craig Kettleman (Julie Ann Emery and Jeremy Shamos, respectively), who had not appeared on the series since the first season, but made additional canonical appearances in the short film No Picnic, which was released after the third season, and on the Inside the Gilliverse podcast in 2020.[94][95] The short film was shot in Albuquerque in March 2022, a year after Emery and Shamos filmed the Better Call Saul episode "Carrot and Stick".[95]

Talking Saul

See also: Talking Saul § Season 6 (2022)

Talking Saul made its return for Better Call Saul's sixth season, and aired following the mid-season finale as well as for the series' penultimate episode.[96][97] The show had been off the air since after Better Call Saul's third season.[98]

Slippin' Jimmy

Variety reported in March 2021 that AMC was developing an animated spinoff series, Slippin' Jimmy.[99] The series was later revealed as a short-form series; a six-part animated series to be released online during the sixth season of Better Call Saul. Each episode is inspired by a specific film genre — from spaghetti Westerns and Buster Keaton to The Exorcist. The series was produced by Rick and Morty animators Starburns and written by Better Call Saul writers Ariel Levine and Kathleen Williams-Foshee. Voice actors include Chi McBride, Laraine Newman, and Sean Giambrone as Jimmy.[73] Six episodes of Slippin' Jimmy, each around 8–9 minutes in length, were released on AMC+ on May 23, 2022.[100]

Filmmaker Training

For the sixth season, new episodes of the Better Call Saul Employee Training Video series, which had begun with the show's third season, were announced.[73]

The employee videos released during the season were titled Filmmaker Training and premiered on July 11, 2022. The series consists of six episodes and focuses on the film crew that helped Jimmy make his advertisements.[101]
