I'll be dead honest here: however great "Better Call Saul" was, "Breaking Bad" is still the better of the two... but not by much. A more carefully paced show, "Better Call Saul" was more about character archs and clever pacing. It's a show that (for me at least) took some time to get its rhythm. Once I got it, I savored it like a fine wine.
The show's finale, "Saul Gone" is a masterclass in tv writing and direction. It ended on a bittersweet note but with our protagonist alive and redeemed, even though he will be behind bars for the rest of his life. He manages to get the only woman he truly loves, Kim wexler, off the hook (at least for some time) and trades a 7 year prison term for an 86 one in the process.
The acting, the cinematography, the script, the direction is so superb, it puts some current movies out in theaters to shame. It's incredible how recent TV shows can now easily surpass big budgeted Hollywood productions.
I'll miss the whole "Breaking Bad" universe but Seriously doubt it will remain silent for long, despite its creators having said the contrary.
Goodbye Saul Goodman!
