Better Call Saul
Now thatBetter Call Saulhas last fare to an end and might be the very last of theBreaking Baduniverse , a lot has come up to light about the show ’s development , including thatthe serial had an alternate ending . However , a dissimilar ending would have been much worse than what fans let in the finale , as neither Saul nor Kim would have arrest any closure .
But for as almost - perfect as the show is , Better Call Saulstill has its low moment , and some scenes almost ruin rooter ' love for the serial . These moments can even be observe in some of the very best episode . Between an off - the - cuff packing match , annoying one - off graphic symbol , and an impromptu melodic moment , even the undecomposed show on TV has its shortcoming .
The Boxing Scene
time of year 6 -Better Call Saul ’s last season - was almost flawless , and each episode feature Jimmy and Kim ’s schemes that go to the epic mid - season cliffhanger . But one scene that stood out to many , includingDue_Love7879 , was the boxing aspect between Jimmy and Howard .
The Redditor argues , " I give it a chance and waited several episodes to make up my mind , but I set about ta say the Howard / Jimmy pugilism scene is kind of feeble , did n’t do it for me . " It was a weird choice on Howard ’s part to gainsay Jimmy to a packing friction match and felt a little out of fiber for both of them . The show always had a sense of humour , but this sequence required a little too much temporary removal of disbelief .
The 50% Off Guys
Mindless_Shebertnotes , " I could have done without the 50 % off guys . " The Redditor is referring to Sticky and Ron , two drug nut that take advantage of Saul Goodman ’s 50 % off services he offers when he sets up his new practice of law firm . The two characters are complete idiots , even when they ’re bust by the police force , and they deliver one of the most oculus - rolling one - liner in the series , as they say , " 50 % off , that ’s almost half price . "
The characters are almost like a bank discount Badger and Skinny Pete , and it would have been much skillful if Badger and Pete appeared instead of Sticky and Ron . Fans werewaiting for theseBreaking Badcharacters to show upin the prequel , but it never happened , and this could have been a arrant way to bring them in .
The Origin Of Hector’s Bell
Umnothingthinks the origin of Hector ’s bell ruined what was a outstanding episode , notice , " The setting where Lalo gives Hector the bell and delivers a monologue about the rootage of the chime , all feel really soppy and storm and kind of ruined the whole plot line of Hector ’s illness . " One of the worst tropes when it comes to prequels , whether it ’s a boob tube show or bell , is when it pointlessly explain the origin of a character ’s name or their signature weapon system .
One of the biggest examples is how Han fuck off his last name inSolo : A Star Wars Story , which was a question nobody was asking . The conception is absurd , as not everything has to have an epical stemma . Better Call Saulhad always managed to avoid clichés like that until Lalo explained the story of Hector ’s iconic bell , which was , once again , a question nobody was asking .
Mike And Manuel’s Final Meeting
Even the most moral characters inBetter Call Saulhave some sort of shady criminal history , but Manuel , Nacho ’s forefather , might be the only reference in the entire series that is all wholesome . He always had a riotous relationship with Nacho because of his work with the cartel . And when Mike save the news to Manuel that Nacho had been killed , he could n’t have cared less .
VanJurkowthinks the scene is farcical and that there ’s no path Manuel would n’t have wanted more entropy . The Redditor explains , " I really think the scene of Mike and Manuel Varga in ' Fun and Games ' was really not good … No father on earth would react the way Manuel reacted , he would ’ve climbed the fence to question Mike about what happened to his son . " However , it is still in fictitious character , and it ’s entrancing in the way it ’s such a stark contrast to the way of life Mike handled the end of his son .
The Mall Heist
Better Call Saulbecame such an entertaining crime caper in " Nippy , " one of the last episodes in the series , as the whole 50 minutes saw Gene and Jeff setting up and pulling off a heist in the mall where Gene works . It hearken back to some of the best episode ofBreaking Bad , such as the epical string heist in " Dead Freight . "
Los_Wieslostakes effect with a specific part of the heist . The Redditor had a problem with " Gene saying ' aaaahhhh ' or ' ooooohhhh ' or doing any noise while staring at the security monitors to prevent the security guard from see and keep his tending to himself . " In fairness , while the whole succession is peachy , Gene is n’t very blazing in it . But at the same clock time , the whole episode set up how oblivious Frank the security guard was when consume Cinnabon , and it ’s what made Frankthe well new grapheme of time of year 6 .
Lalo Defying Physics
Lalo isthe good villain in theBreaking Baduniverse , and it ’s like all of his stats have been bumped up to 11 , as he ’s amazing when it comes to stealing , scrap , intelligence , and a million other matter . He ’s like the final boss in a telecasting plot , but that ’s also whyHugo_Twothinks one particular shot ruins the show . The Redditor take note , " The way that Lalo jump onto the gondola , it depend so cartoonish . "
When Lalo discover Jimmy ’s car in the desert , he jumps fifteen pes onto it , almost with a superhero landing , too . While free runners have been doing parkour for decades , this view is completely laughable , as he is n’t land on a tier Earth’s surface but an tip-tilted car . And he could have simply walk a mates of minutes and come down there without the theatrics .
The Prison Bus
RevolutionaryFile989hates the prison house bus scene in the stopping point , remark , " The scene with all the inmates intonate Better Caul Saul ( to a beat ) on the way of life to the prison house cue me of the melodious episode ofGrey ’s Anatomy . bad scene in the finale for sure . " Whilesome fans lie with the bus scene inBetter Call Saul , it stands out like a sore thumb in the finis .
The very concluding episode ofBetter Call Sauland seemingly the terminal of theBreaking Badsaga ended wholly course and the only way it could - with Jimmy depart to prison for 86 years . While he ’ll be riding out his sentence up until his dying , it ’s still bittersweet , as all the other convicts look up to him because he ’s Saul Goodman , thecriminallawyer . While the prison bus scene might have been a picayune cheesy , it ’s the tantrum that let witness know that Saul Goodman has become a fable and that Jimmy is go to be just okay in clink .
The Copy Shop Interview
In " Alpine Shepherd Dog , " Jimmy has an audience at a copy shop , which he expectedly nails , and is offer the job on the spot . But Jimmy then throws their line offer in the employer ’s faces , whichULS980thinks is one of the bad scenes in the series . The Redditor posits , " The only scene I really cringe at is the one where Jimmy applies to the copy shop and then tears into them for not doing a backcloth check . Dunno why , but it ’s the only scene I ’d reckon skipping . "
While it ’s unclear where the sequence is maneuver during the consultation , it ’s a classicBetter Call Saulsetup for one of Jimmy ’s silly schemes . The criminal lawyer plans to rob an ornament on the copy shop ’s shelf that the bosses do n’t know is deserving thousands . Andit also leads to a peachy cameo , as Ira , the before long - to - be proprietor of Vamonos Pest , steals the ornament for Jimmy .
Nacho’s Face Off With The Salamancas
Nacho get the unretentive end of the stick in time of year 6 , and the writing was on the bulwark about how it was going to end for him from the very beginning . And while many thinkNacho should n’t have been killed off , others would have changed the character ’s previous scenes , too . Yaniv297refers to when the on - the - prevail former gangster bumps into theTerminator - corresponding Salamanca twins . The Redditor fence " in person , I kind of hated the Nacho driving into the cousin-german conniption in S6E2 . "
The beginning of season 6 needed to impersonate to audience how harsh of a ride Nacho was having , and a shoot - out with the Salamancas was a sodding style to do that . However , some viewers might clearly be tire out by the cousins , as they only ever show up for shoot - outs where everyone seemingly survives .
Fred’s Murder
HenryTDGthinks the view where Fred Whalen , a TravelWire employee , is murdered by Lalo is the worst of the series . The Redditor claim , " It ’s just so out of realism I ca n’t take it . It ’s improbably goofy , more so than Gus ’ death , more so than anything . It ’s just so horrific I wish they would just take it out of the show and cut it as soon as Fred goes to the earphone . "
This is another instance of Lalo have video - game - fibre - similar superhuman abilities , and the way of life he jumps through the roof is like something out ofMetal Gear Solid . But while the Redditor refers to when Lalo fall from the cap , the most absurd part is when he manages to silently jump up into the cap when Fred look away for just a few forgetful seconds .
