List Of Better Call Saul Episodes
Better Call Saul is an American television drama series created by Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould that aired on AMC.
It is a spin-off from Gilligan's previous series, Breaking Bad (2008–2013), to which it serves as both a prequel and sequel. Set primarily in the first half of the 2000s in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the series develops Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk), an earnest lawyer and former con artist, into an egocentric criminal defense attorney known as Saul Goodman. Also shown is the moral decline of former police officer Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks), who becomes a violent fixer for drug traffickers to support his granddaughter and her widowed mother.
The series was officially greenlit in September 2013. In an interview Gilligan confirmed that the series would have a lighter tone than Breaking Bad. Before the premiere of the first season, a second season was ordered. The series premiere aired on February 8, 2015, and the first season concluded on April 6. The second season aired from February 15, 2016, through April 18. In March 2016, the series was renewed for another season. The third season began on April 10, 2017, and ended on June 19. A week later the series was renewed for an additional season. In July 2018, the series was renewed for a fifth season. The fourth season began airing on August 6, 2018, and ended on October 8. In January 2020, the show was renewed for a sixth and final season. The fifth season ran from February 23, 2020, through April 20. The sixth season was split into two parts, the first part ran from April 18, 2022, through May 23. The second part began on July 11, 2022, and the series finale aired on August 15.
During the course of the series, 63 episodes of Better Call Saul aired over six seasons.
