‘Better Call Saul’ Season 6 Get April Premiere Date

It’s the beginning of the end (or the end of the beginning depending on how you look at it!) as Better Call Saul Season 6 lands an April premiere date on AMC in the US, and will follow the next day on Netflix UK.

Better Call Saul’s final season concludes the complicated journey and transformation of its compromised hero, Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk), into criminal lawyer Saul Goodman. From the cartel to the courthouse, from Albuquerque to Omaha, season six tracks Jimmy, Saul and Gene as well as Jimmy’s complex relationship with Kim (Rhea Seehorn), who is in the midst of her own existential crisis. Meanwhile, Mike (Jonathan Banks), Gus (Giancarlo Esposito), Nacho (Michael Mando) and Lalo (Tony Dalton) are locked into a game of cat and mouse with mortal stakes.

Season six is split into two parts, with part one landing in April, and part two dropping in July. “In my eyes, this is our most ambitious, surprising and, yes, heartbreaking season,” said Showrunner and Executive Producer Peter Gould. “Even under incredibly challenging circumstances, the whole Saul team — writers, cast, producers, directors and crew — have outdone themselves. I couldn’t be more excited to share what we’ve accomplished together.”

Better Call Saul garnered a 2018 Peabody Award, and, over five seasons, has earned 40 Emmy Award nominations, four Golden Globe(R) Award nominations, six Writers Guild Awards, nine Critics’ Choice Awards, five Television Critics Association Awards and four AFI Awards for “TV Programs of the Year,” among many other Guild nominations. The series stars Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Rhea Seehorn, Patrick Fabian, Michael Mando, Tony Dalton, and Giancarlo Esposito and is executive produced by Peter Gould, Vince Gilligan, Mark Johnson, Melissa Bernstein, Thomas Schnauz, Gordon Smith, Alison Tatlock, Diane Mercer, and Michael Morris.

“While we are very sad to say goodbye to this complicated and fascinating character, we can’t wait for Saul’s full story to be revealed to audiences, adds Jeff Frost, President, Sony Pictures Television Studios. “Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad are woven into the DNA of Sony Pictures Television and we are in complete awe of what Peter and Vince have created. They have truly transformed television. And this season of Saul, bolstered by the incomparable performances of Bob, Rhea, Jonathan, Giancarlo and the rest of this brilliant cast, takes that legacy to even loftier heights. We are so honoured and grateful to have been on this journey with the entire Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul teams, as well as our partners at AMC in bringing this captivating world to life.”

Better Call Saul‘ Season 6 part 1 begins Monday, April 18 at 9pm ET/PT on AMC and AMC+ in the USA, and will air Tuesday, 19th April 2022 on Netflix UK. Part 2 will premiere Monday, July 11 on AMC and, again, lands the next day on Netflix UK.
