    The only winner is Pryce the playuh. Look up how much his baseball cards are worth in 2024.

    Every single character ended up worse off. I think Elliot and Gretchen won, based on the least damage to their lives.

      That’s fair, I personally do t agree though since Elliot lost since he has goofy elephant ears, and Gretchen lost cas she married him lmao

      The absolute irony of the most dangerous and destructive character hurting everyone but the people who arguably hurt him the most and motivated him to go down that road.

      They had to do PR control for their billion dollar company’s relationship to the biggest meth dealer in U.S. history. Walt likely cost them a lot of money.

    If there's one theme that's prevalent everywhere in the BB universe it's ego and Saul goes on the longest and most intriguing journey in this whole saga, he's the most subtle and well developed and that's just because he played the role of mediator in BB that you wouldn't notice until at least season 2 of Better Call Saul how complex he is, I adore this characters complexity and how he pretty much is what Vince Gilligan set out to do in 2008 with Heisenberg.

    Agree on the Saul remarks. I disagree on the Gustavo ones. Gus was everything you described, except Gus was also a vengeful character, who had a really strong goal to exact revenge on the Salamancas, and Walter White getting Hector to kamikaze pipe bomb Gus, was exactly perfect way of how being blindly set on revenge blinded Gus to things that Walter ended up doing.

    Hank and Steve already had the scent of illicitness at Lavandería Brillante with infrastructure anomalies therein that only compounded their suspicion of Gus, ergo Gus only had a few months if not mere weeks in which to operate; his days were already numbered.

      Or he would have just killed Hank since he knew Hank was the only one who really cared

    • @edwardcatt2399

      Gus _might_ - indeed, probably _would_ - have tried to assassinate Hank but at this point that really would have only garnered for Gus a greater preponderance of suspicion to befall him. This actually ties into the lovely contradiction of Gus; although he’s outwardly ‘in control’ and ‘supernaturally calm’, he’s actually behaving with exponential confidence and hubris that he CANNOT afford right now, to whatever degree that he ever could. Gus was already toast when Gomez was looking into the laundry, _HELL,_ he was toast when Hank began to seriously consider the laundry as a potential point of illicit activity . . .

    I think you should watch the series again. You got the Gus Fring character all wrong. After all the damage Saul caused to people in his last minute court confession was too little too late. I do not think he accomplished much by lengthening his jail time ten fold benefitted anyone, maybe his ex wife. He could have made amends in his own way without staying in jail for that long of a time. Get away from this AI garbage and have a real person evaluate the show. I agree very little with what was said in it.

      Saul/Jimmy was only motivated by power and money, he never actually physically killed somebody or intentionally hurt anyone. When he did cause harm to others it was a side effect of his own selfishness but that was never the goal, in life we all face those challenges, whenever we choose ourselves over others we hurt them, but in the end we sacrifice relationships to become what we think is the better version of ourselves. I’ve watched this show twice, and we as individuals have different perspectives. The court confession came right on time, because Saul ran OUT OF TIME, which is ironic because his whole thing was “buying his clients more time” there’s no way Saul could’ve made amends to the families he ruined… I mean how could he? He ran out of money, he wasn’t a lawyer anymore, and they wanted nothing to do with him! They wanted to see him rot in prison for the rest of his life and that’s what HE GAVE THEM BY CONFESSING… so that was him making amends. It’s the main reason why Gilligan chose to keep Saul alive and not kill off his character, he said he wanted to punish him for what he did! As far as Gus character, that’s my take on him it’s bias because he’s one of my favorite in the show but my perspective is my perspective and it doesn’t mean that’s it wrong because you don’t agree.

      ​@@brickhard Gus was always drived by revenge after Max's death, yes he played the long game, but still he was drove by the hatred he has against the Cartel. So It was fitting that he let His guard down, right where Hector had practically lost everything. Not to be offensive but your perspective does not invalidate or make others wrong.

    • @snowarmth

      Considering that their reply ended with them being on the defensive with: "my perspective is my perspective, and it doesn't mean that it's wrong because you disagree"
      I'm sure they don't mean to broadcast their perspective as fact. It goes both ways, after all.
