Although “Namaste” is technically rated as the worst episode of the season, an 8.7 score is still pretty impressive. The most memorable moment in the episode sees Jimmy launching bowling balls at Howard’s car in response to his condescending job offer. The episode had a great cliffhanger ending, too, as Mike went back to antagonize the guys he’d pr...
Picking up where “Namaste” left off with Mike recovering from his stab wound, “Dedicado a Max” was arguably the least action-packed episode of the season. But it still had plenty of great character moments, building on Mike and Kim’s arcs in particular, while Jimmy’s continued efforts to delay the construction of Mesa Verde’s call center (creating ...
The second episode, “50% Off,” set up most of the season’s conflicts, especially for Nacho. With a gun to Nacho’s father’s head, Gus forces Nacho to gain the confidence of Lalo Salamanca, setting in motion the Lalo villain arc. Vince Gilligan has admitted that he didn’t feel the need to explain who Lalo is, but Peter Gould did. Thankfully, Gould wo...

Whether the title stands for “James Morgan McGill,” “Justice Matters Most,” or “Just Make Money,” “JMM” was a turning point for Better Call Saul. Jimmy and Kim got married to protect themselves legally, Lalo recruited Jimmy to pick up his bail money, and in the show’s chilling final moments, Jimmy exploded at Howardafter their conflict finally came...
Kim’s conflicts with Mesa Verde bubble to the surface in “The Guy for This,” setting up her season-long development, as she realizes she cares more about her pro bono clients, but the corporate fatcats will keep pulling her away to evict people from their homes. Plus, Jimmy is embroiled deeper in the Salamancas’ business. Notably, “The Guy for This...
When season 5’s episode titles were announced before the season aired, one particularly tantalizing title that grabbed fans’ attention was “Wexler v. Goodman.” With no context for the title, we had to watch each episode to fill in the blanks leading up to such a legal skirmish. The episode in its final form didn’t disappoint, as Jimmy pulled “the o...
The season finale, “Something Unforgivable,” set us up for the sixth and final season in some really exciting ways. It left us with a ton of questions. Will Lalo come for Jimmy? Can Nacho get a clean break? Will Kim sabotage Howard like she planned to? And, more broadly, where was Kim during Breaking Bad? RELATED: Better Call Saul: Kim's 10 Most Ba...
The penultimate installment of season 5, “Bad Choice Road,” spends its entire runtime building up to its explosive climax. Everything seems to be going great: Lalo is going to disappear to Mexico, Nacho will be off the hook, and Jimmy can stop worrying. But then, Lalo catches wind that Jimmy’s recollection of the events of “Bagman” is filled with l...
There’s a sly self-awareness in “Bagman.” In the opening scenes, as Jimmy tells Kim he has to drive out into the desert to pick up Lalo’s bail money and insists he’ll be fine, then pours his water all over his shoes while he waits for the cash, there’s an ominous sense that something terrible will happen. And, lo and behold, it does, as Jimmy is ru...
