Goodbye Saul

We watched the final episode of Better Call Saul on Tuesday. We have both really enjoyed watching the six series of this Breaking Bad spin-off, which has been screened over the past six or seven years. It has been excellent but has resulted in a couple of issues for me. Better Call Saul is a prequel to Breaking Bad, which ran from 2008 to 2013. So it was immediately noticeable that some characters (especially Gus Fring in my opinion) look distinctly older in the prequel! 

My other issue is that my memory of Breaking Bad has faded a bit, so as the timelines of the two programmes became closer and finally overlapped, I found myself struggling to remember what happened and when regarding Saul’s interactions with Walter and Jesse. 

As for the much anticipated ending - I thought that it was very good. Very fitting and with a hint of redemption. I will avoid divulging any spoilers, but suffice it to say that even though I couldn’t guess how it would end, I now can’t imagine it ending any other way.
