The series finale of BetterCallSaul ended in magnificent and melancholic fashion, with one last reinvention of Jimmy's legacy.
Well, that's it. It's Saul Gone now. After six seasons of riveting television that even surpassed its predecessor, Better Call Saul and the journey of one James "Jimmy" McGill came to a close. Following a life full of scams and schemes, television's most tragic trickster put on one final performance that cemented his legacy in profound yet painful fashion.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY After all the destruction and death that he has been a part of, Jimmy ultimately comes clean about everything. He admits to his central and ongoing role in the criminal enterprise, giving one show-stopper of a line with “the fact is Walter White couldn’t have done it without me.” It is a stunning moment, reminding us how Jimmy can put on one hell of a show when he takes the stage.
Though this scene plays out in front of all the people gathered in the courtroom, including some familiar faces, Jimmy is most concerned about the woman who was once his wife. Just as Kim had told him he should, he gives himself up. After saying nothing would stop him from taking for himself all the way back at the end of Season 1, he does the right thing at great personal cost.
This is the enduring legacy the show creates for him — not as a conman or a huckster, not as a cartel lawyer, or even as a sidekick to Walter White. While the prequel may have begun with this conception of him, it has now definitively and thoroughly reinvented him. The finale sees Jimmy confront all those varying ideas of who he was, many of which were his own creation, to instead choose a different path.
