Better Call Saul's finale was hailed as "masterful" by critics, while the Breaking Bad spin-off from Netflix was coming to an end after r six seasons.
The prequel, which focuses on Bob Odenkirk's character Jimmy McGill, was released in 2015.< /p>
It shows him becoming conceited criminal defense attorney Saul Goodman.
Variety's Daniel D'Addario described it as "a striking and elegant finale to one of the strongest television dramas of the last decade".
"This finale was meticulous, from the way it addressed Saul's moral crisis to the deployment of key supporting characters to make its points,” D'Addario wrote.
"The series' desire, particularly in its final series of episodes, to alternate major and defining moments with everyday sequences of ordinary character existences s - a conversation with a bartender, a day at the office - which seemed to last a little too long was an interesting choice.
"It had the texture of real life, which might not be what one would expect to be looking for in a show about a corrupt lawyer entangled in cartel wars."
Saul's story, the reviewer concluded, will be remembered as "an achievement of an era of television that seemed to have ended before the show itself: He had the will to circumvent the limits of its story and a trust in its audience."
