**Spoiler** Better Call Saul Finale

[naomi24]

Satisfyingly right - or not?

What an ending, but for all he was - and wasn't - aren't there times when you just want them to get away with it? I don't know why - he was a shyster, a trickster, a crook, all of that, but even so .... I liked him. Great ending in my opinion - but I wish he'd have stuck with the agreed 7.5 years instead of coming clean. I kind of hate leaving him banged up there for 80-odd years.

A brilliant end to a brilliant series, imho, Naomi. I was beginning to quite detest him toward the finale, but his 'coming clean' altered my opinion of him.
And i wouldnt worry too much about leaving him banged up. I have no doubt he is serving his time, helping other inmates - and possibly guards - with their legal problems, earning himself various 'priviliges', etc, etc. Bit like Andy Dufresne of Shawshank fame :-))

It was a good series - and I thought this final Saul one tied up some of the 'ends' left from the other BB series too. Great stuff.

I thought it was a pre-quel
"to show how he got like that"

and the time line really confused me - - Pinkerman and Walter turn up as bit parts ( last episode) and he doesnt recognised them, so it has to be pre BB
Perhaps I was thinking too much
Classical ring cycle - the beginning ( breaking up the house) foretells the end

and the eight years to eighty years I thought was to show he gambled too often and lost....

Peter! Advance warning of statements like 'Kim baring all' please!

Oh in real time - John Mitchell ( john hoo-chull etc) who was Nixons Attorney General ( Fed not some bit part) served time

( Martha Mitchell was some leddy those two) and HE
( as all prisons have law libraries) of the cases he took on for the cons, got half acquitted and a further quarter reduced terms

wen back to being a tray reesh corporate lawyer

Mass poisoner Shipman carried on his trade ( no not mass poisoning silly, general practice!) in prison as none of the cons trusted the PMS ( prison medical service gor blimey mate)
