LatestRevelations. Regrets. RICO violations. Jimmy's worlds — and identities — converge in one final showdown.
Six years before Saul Goodman meets Walter White. We meet him when the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and, often, against Jimmy, is “fixer” Mike Ehrmantraut. The series tracks Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “criminal lawyer".

Bob Odenkirk's face becomes a map of incremental self-betrayal.
Writing
Dialogue so precise it hurts; silence even more devastating.
Cinematography
Desert noir: color as moral weather, every frame a painting.
Creators
Vince Gilligan, Peter Gould
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The show uses color grading as prophecy: Jimmy's world grows colder and more desaturated as Saul emerges, while Kim's final scenes burn with harsh fluorescent truth.
The 'Chicanery' monologue was shot in a single day with minimal cuts, letting Odenkirk's physical transformation—Jimmy becoming Saul in real-time—unfold without escape.
