Of course it was the right thing to do; he was finally telling the truth about what he did and accepting responsibility for his actions. Since when is that not the right thing to do?

What a satisfying arc - from Breaking Bad to Baking Bread

oh buddy - i do not want to spend any more time in new mexico. as much as i liked saul the whole thing was getting pretty long in the tooth.

I feel like chaining Vince to a typewriter like Steven Colbert, and forcing him to write another BB universe show.

people throw around ‘end of an era’ a lot, but wow this really feels like it. not just for the show, but this also felt like it was prolonging a bygone era of tv itself.

It’s not intended to get Kim out of anything. Kim freely gave a confession after Jimmy rather rhetorically suggested it, and then when he discovered she had actually done it he decided to do the same himself.

In the end, Bill Oakley went as we all knew him:  trying and failing to be like Jimmy.  

In the end, as we all expected, Better Call Saul was a show about a guy who adds 80 years to his prison sentence to impress a girl.

Loved the prison bus scene.

Time Travel.

What was really great about this episode was Mike’s goodbye to the series which i’m glad we got. That he regretted becoming who he was and recognized that his lifestyle, his corrupt cop life, is what got his son killed. He wishes he could take it all back and and how that connected with his final scene with Papa…

So it ends with a whimper and not with a bang, but what a whimper. In the end it meant nothing without Kim. Jimmy took the fall so that Kim wouldn’t be left holding the bag.

I’m very glad the show ended on a redemptive note. Saul was so despicable for these last episodes that I felt whiplash from the Jimmy we had seen all throughout the series up to the majority of this final season. But of course Gould and Gilligan had to take him to his Breaking Bad character. So by really rubbing it in…

One of the most underrated things about this show is those masterfully done opening titles steadily degrading in video quality each season. Because it symbolises the central theme of the series. A man constantly rewatching video tapes of his glory days, obsessed with that fake saul persona from the commercials, trying…

What a wonderful finale to an amazing show. I think this was the happiest ending Jimmy could have gotten. One without heartache. I love that he chose a lifetime in prison, and still having a place in Kim’s heart, over a life of freedom (minus 7 years), and having no place in her life at all. I think this is one of the…

Another note - when Jimmy asked Walt about regrets, Walt looked at the watch Jesse gave him on his birthday (implying Walt probably regretted handing Jesse over to Jack). 

Kim was the one juror Jimmy needed to convince. Saul utters one last “It’s showtime!” (à la All That Jazz) shortly before giving a word-for-word encore of his earlier performance to convince the prosecutor that Saul had a chance at a hung jury, then he zigs instead of zags and begins his confession to the judge—but…

“You never know with good behavior.” No matter how many wrong, selfish decisions one has made in their life, there is always room for growth. You have to accept the repercussions of your past, of course, but what solace comes out of any situation if you don’t see the opportunity for growth in it. Some people never…

I have always found the concept of regret, roads not taken and time travel incredibly emotional if done well. This episode hit all three so hard and upon reflection it wrecked me harder then the Titanic. Goddamn it Vince you managed a plausible semi redemption and kinda happy ending. Bravo!

He turned the clock back to being Jimmy, by turning 7 years into 86. He really did it: he built a time machine.
