Alright forgive me for this tangent, but I also finished BCS last night and have to go off just a bit.. Hot take… but I felt the last season and ending were pretty boring and underwhelming. My partner and I got a little heated because she thought it was great and meaningful and tied everything up nicely. I disliked it for the same reasons.
So after 6 seasons of Saul being a POS, he finally gets caught and has this grand revelation and saves the girl? It’s just a little too perfect and corny imo. Also, season 4 and 5 were absolute barn burners, super intense. That’s why I watched the show. Season 6 had it’s moments for sure, but it was like 90% people just walking, standing, sitting in silence pondering.
It was great if you were seeking closure, and were watching it for the sake of character development. If you were watching it because you enjoy gritty, fast-paced crime dramas, which BCS teases you with sporadically, then season 6 was a disappointment. Then again, I should’ve picked up on that when the majority of the series’ beginning was about his narcissistic mentally ill brother. Breaking Bad was the same though, way too drawn out at times and way too much filler that doesn’t really contribute much to the plot.
