What did you think about the ending to Better Call Saul?

I thought it was absolutely perfect. Jimmy redeemed himself to get back the respect of Kim and accept the punishment of his actions. He knew he'd eventually be up to no good again on the outside. And he's got respect in the can. He'll have all sorts of legal advice and probably kind of run the show in his own way.

I know people here will disagree, but I never questioned how any of the Vince stuff went or ended. I just loved those shows so much. Been a fan of Odenkirk since the 90s.

It was fine

I agree, a perfect ending imo. Jimmy was completely empty by this point, and even if he took the 7 years, all of the shreds of his life would be gone by the time he got out.
He redeemed himself and redeemed the respect of kim.Just finished the show for the first time, such a fucking masterpiece

Turns the character into a pathetic simp.
Which I guess he always was.
He gets to rot in jail while his ex lover gets yepped every night and barely thinks about him.

i thought it was pretty fucking bad and further proof that vince can't end a show for the life of him. maybe he should start actually writing the ending before he begins a project instead of just "going where it takes him," because two times in a row that lead him directly off a cliff.
>>
>>222314134
...he got raped in prison, didn't he?
>>
Why does the ending filter so many people?

He clearly understood that he's a piece of shit through and through that can talk his way out of anything so the only way to "do the right thing" and permanently remove himself from harming people he cared about was to go to jail on purpose.
If he continued more people would get killed or hurt, including Kim. One way or another it would happen since he can't stop slippin. He couldn't trust anyone, not even himself to stay out of trouble. He even tried restarting his life and laying low and he still started slippin anyway

>So what are you gonna do now, Kim?
>I think I'm gonna start a new life back in Albuquerque, maybe try writing
>Wouldn't you have to change your name for that?
>Yeah, I was thinking maybe going with Carol

BRAVO VINCE

Jimmy was the smoothest talker ever. He talked his way out of a Tuco death. He came up with Squat Cobbler. There's no way Jimmy was ever fucking getting raped.

You never saw the show.
>>
Was alright, some good some bad
The bus scene was a mistake though
Just way too silly
>>
>>222314402
he cant do that though because it would be contrived, they write the shows by just looking at the situation of the character and thinking what they would do in the situation, the only contrived stuff they did was stuff like giving walt the machine gun which they regretted doing.
>>
>>222314134
I think the show lost its way after season 4. There was never a satisfying follow up to his brother's death.
>>
>>222314134
it was awful but the entire final season was awful
>>
I was hoping for the "I fought the law" musical number

>>222315291
So Kim's a time traveller?
>>
>>222315687

Yes, it's why she didn't get Pluribussy'd
>>
>>222314134
Everyone complains about it. I watched it. I don't even remember what happened.
>>
Can we all agree that the best point to end a rewatch is when Chuck dies?
>>
>Hey!
>Better Call Saul right?
What did he mean by this?
>>
>>222314134
Reminded me of the terrible Seinfeld final episode
>>
I didn't like it.
In fact, it makes absolutely no sense. It's meant to be this redemption arc that sort of makes sense but then it all gets thrown out the window in the bus scene.
>>
>>222314166
Based non cynic.
I liked the ending too
>>
>>222314294
He isn't Walt, Anon. Saul was always portrayed as kind of pathetic, that's his whole character.
>>
It's a perfect ending. It perfectly puts down the core theme of whether a person can really change by setting up the stakes really well

It sucked and was entirely out of character for Kimmy or Saul to just up and be like "Wow come on you guys are really gonna follow the law for me to get away with seven years?" The idea that he should condemn himself forever because someone might sue Kim is completely absurd even within just the logic of the show when Saul himself could have advised her from prison, she could have great representation, etc.

Also it just entirely absolved Kim of any comeuppance for her own shit while putting it all on Saul as if he was the only bad guy instead of having a balanced ending where Jimmy gets time for his crimes but also because of his competence he manages to reduce it, while Kim also potentially has to pay for how she basically ruined Howard's life and got him killed.
