It’s April 18th and it’s finally time for the world to pull the covers off Better Call Saul’s final season, or at least its first volume. AMC Entertainment teased its world premiere stream with a few sneak peeks into today’s two-episode reveal, giving us a glimpse of Kim, Jimmy, and a probably-bloodthirsty Lalo Salamanca:
With years of meticulous plotting by creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould falling into place, Better Call Saul’s final season will knit together both Breaking Bad-verse shows nearly 15 years after we got to see Walter White’s descent into the ruthless ‘Heisenberg’.
