Entire Better Call Saul series including season 6 heads to Blu-ray on December 6

This past August, Better Call Saul concluded its six-season run with a bittersweet ending. Now, fans will have the chance to own season 6 and the entire series when it heads to Blu-ray on December 6. The final season will also be available on DVD on the same day.

Stemming from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment, the Blu-ray includes special features, such as deleted scenes, outtakes, Easter eggs, and commentary on every episode. Go behind the scenes with the cast and crew as they discuss the evolution of Saul Goodman and explain specific moments in the show. Below, you’ll find an exclusive clip of Bob Odenkirk and co-creator Vince Gilligan discussing Gene Takavic, Saul’s alias while hiding from the authorities in Omaha, Nebraska, in 2010.

Season 6 follows Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk), who now goes by Saul Goodman, as he continues his descent into becoming the famous criminal lawyer from Breaking Bad. At the end of season 5, Jimmy and Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn) agree to sabotage the career of Howard Hamlin (Patrick Fabian), and season 6 tracks the duo’s schemes to expedite a resolution of the Sandpiper case, which will result in a payday for Jimmy. Meanwhile, Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) enlists the help of Mike Ehrmantraut (Jonathan Banks) to hunt down Lalo Salamanca (Tony Dalton), who survived an assassination attempt.

The final four episodes of season 6 pick up in Omaha in 2010, with Gene working at a Cinnabon store. After Gene befriends Marion (Carol Burnett), he slips into his old “Slipping Jimmy” persona and plans to rob a department store with her son, Jeff (Pat Healy). The black-and-white episodes are a great conclusion to a successful series run.

Better Call Saul premiered in 2015, and 63 episodes later, the series concluded its six-season run in 2022. The Breaking Bad spin-off was met with universal praise, with many critics applauding the performances from the cast as well as the writing and direction of the creative team. Up to this point, Better Call Saul has received 46 Primetime Emmy Award nominations and will most certainly garner more accolades for the second half of season 6 during the 2023 awards season.

‘Better Call Saul’ season 3 premiere date revealed — here’s a sneak peek
better call saul 2 bettercallsaul amc 12

Right on the heels of confirming that everyone’s favorite fast-food restaurant owner/drug kingpin Gus Fring (Giancarlo Esposito) would be appearing in the third season of Better Call Saul, AMC has released a premiere date for the show. Viewers will be able to catch up with Jimmy McGill (aka Saul Goodman), played wonderfully by Bob Odenkirk, starting Monday, April 10, at 10 p.m. ET.

That’s much later than usual -- the first two seasons both debuted in February. But it will also give fans an extra two months to anticipate what’s to come. When we left Jimmy in season two (spoiler alert), he had started up his own law firm, and managed to bring along his friend/love interest Kim (Rhea Seahorn) to work alongside -- not with -- him. Meanwhile, his brother Chuck (Michael McKean) continues to be a thorn in Jimmy’s side, while Mike (Johnathan Banks) struggles with his morals and the desire to off a drug lord.

Faux commercial teases return of the terrifying Gus Fring on ‘Better Call Saul’

Vince Gilligan, creator of Better Call Saul, had already confirmed through some crafty Easter eggs that the terrifying Gus Fring character from Breaking Bad would indeed appear in the spinoff series Better Call Saul. And now, a hilarious clip for the upcoming season creatively teases his return.

Breaking Bad fans know that Fring, played by Giancarlo Esposito, was secretly the head of a massive drug ring (until Walter White, aka Heisenberg, took over, of course), but he was publicly known as the owner of a popular fast food joint called Los Pollos Hermanos. And the teaser plays on this, serving simply as a 30-second fake ad spot for the joint.

How Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould became ‘pixel peepers’ making ‘Better Call Saul’

“We make Better Call Saul for the pixel peepers — the folks who want to watch it on the biggest, most perfect OLED screen as possible.”
And the noose just keeps getting tighter and tighter. When we last saw Jimmy McGill (played by the always engaging Bob Odenkirk) at the end of season two of Better Call Saul, it appeared as if he was on the verge of being exposed in a lie with deep-rooted legal implications. Too bad he can’t call on his eventual Breaking Bad alter ego, Saul Goodman, to come bail him out if things get exceedingly dire for Slippin’ Jimmy in season three, which will begin airing in early 2017 on AMC.

Until then, we can marvel at the scope, sharp story arcs, and overall audio/visual brilliance of Better Call Saul: Season Two, available now on Blu-ray and DVD via Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. As helmed by co-creators Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould of Breaking Bad fame, Saul continues to both honor and build upon the high standards BBad set for the postmodern cable-outlet drama.
