Here's Why Fans Believe 'Better Call Saul' is Best TV Series Right Now
After a two-year-long hiatus, 'Breaking Bad' spin-off 'Better Call Saul' has returned with season 6. And it looks like there is hardly anyone on social media who disliked the show's comeback.
'Better Call Saul ' premiered on April 18, kicking off season 6 with two episodes – 'Wine and Roses' and 'Carrot and Stick'. Fans, worn off after anticipating Bob Odenkirk's comeback for two years, have immediately anointed the show to be one of the best series on TV right now – no more, no less.
It looks like some people are even ready to downplay 'Breaking Bad ' in favor of its spin-off.
Alright, someone is ready for a compromise.
Aside from those who are just stating it as a fact, there are people ready to roll out arguments, particularly praising the show for its slow development, intelligence and characters actually staying in character.
It seems that even the dullest-sounding scenes are fun to watch when they are made by people behind 'Better Call Saul'.
Some fans paid particular attention to the signature lighting in the show.
Others were blown away with the writing and subtexts.
If you are looking for at least a pinch of criticism, or maybe a couple of squabbles between the fans, this is the rare situation when you're unlikely to find any of it. 'Better Call Saul' fandom appears to have turned into a unified, delighted community of people who just enjoy the hell out of their favorite TV show, and the series never disappointing them as a return favor.
Starting with April 19, the next five episodes will air weekly. Then, after a short break, the series will resume on July 12. Overall, there are going to be 13 episodes – and it looks like the show is on a mission to conclude Saul's story with class.
