With Bob Odenkirk in stable condition and doing better, we're making a personal request of the Better Call Saul star. Relax. Please.
As for Jimmy's final fate, Odenkirk said he's interested to see if he could become the anti-Walter White (Cranston)- is it possible for Jimmy to be in " a better place in end in than he started in." The actor also credited Breaking Bad for preparing the audience to appreciate details- a skill that will[...]

Up until now, most of the talk about what's to come has focused on Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman (Odenkirk) and Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn– and understandably so But what about our favorite flash-forward character, "Gene Takovic" (Jimmy's new persona)? After having his cover blown at the beginning of the fifth season by a cabbie who would[...]
Also, we thought we were making the story of Jimmy McGill and Mike Ehrmantraut Turns out yes, it's their story, but it's also Gustavo Fring's story And maybe most surprising of all, Kim Wexler's story So those things all surprised us."

Our biggest takeaway? Schnauz first saying that the writers' room was done with the final season's 7th episodes before correcting himself by saying that they were "breaking episode eight." Other topics that were covered included how Seehorn's on-set relationship with Bob Odenkirk (Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman) has changed over the course of five seasons, and how[...]
Better Call Saul co-creator Peter Gould wants us keeping an eye on Kim during the final season, which looks to be facing a production delay.
For example, here's what Gould had to say about Gene's fate following his "I'm going to fix it on my own" line:
"Anybody who watches the show carefully and is thinking about where this is all going, one of the questions you have to ask yourself is: 'What does this man deserve?' Not just: 'What's going[...]
Granted, it's Emmy nomination season so it shouldn't be that huge of a surprise but still: doesn't it feel like we've been getting a ton of talk about the final season already? While things might quiet down a bit after awards season wraps, we figured we take advantage of all this Better Call Saul chatter[...]
Jimmy seems hesitant and concerned at first, but Saul sees the endless possibilities (or at least $1 million worth of possibilities), so it looks like it's "game on!".

But will that ending include an appearance from Walter White aka Heisenberg and Jesse Pinkman? As of now, Gould doesn't have an answer to that but emphasized that it would only happen if it was natural to the story they were telling: "The thing that we kind of focus on is, what's the story we're[...]
Meanwhile, Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) slipped on the "Saul Goodman" mask to buy Acker (Barry Corbin) some more time – but the only plan of attack left is to dig up some dirt on Kevin (Rex Linn).
Which – based on Kim's (Rhea Seehorn) face after looking over some photo's of Kevin's home – they may have[...]

You're either his friend or a potential friend – you're either someone who can do him a favor or he can do a favor for you (so you owe him down the road).

● How impressive[...]
Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould's Better Call Saul came smooth-talking its way back to AMC on Sunday night with "Magic Man", the first of its two-part premiere event (with "50% Off" airing Monday night in its regular timeslot) – and it felt like easing into a warm, inviting bath.
If that bath was filled with crystal meth, cell[...]
Following that, Gilligan and others discuss what went into making the film a reality – and the layers of security they had in place to avoid spoilers:

So with the series only days away from its Sunday, February 23, and Monday, February 24, two-night premiere, it seems only fitting that Gould offer up his thoughts (and a few teases) to EW on what viewers can expect – here are some of the highlights:
