Ranked : Better Call Saul

Ranked : Better Call Saul 

This is my new format where I rank a group of films, TV Shows or seasons of TV Shows from the weakest to the strongest giving you the idea of what is better or worse in my opinion, obviously these are all subjective to me and there might be spoilers. Starting with the 5 seasons of Better Call Saul from the weakest to the best. 

5. Better Call Saul - Season 2 

 Blogs - Better Call Saul - New Season 2 Poster Revealed for Better ... A great 2nd season of the show, it does a great job with the characters, making them interesting people and developing them well. The stories for each characters are interesting too and work for those characters. However, the reason this season is at the bottom of the pile is due to the fact that there is plenty of filler here, the pacing isn't great and it takes away from the high parts of the season with a truly memorable finale.

4. Better Call Saul - Season 1

The main negative of the season is that it feels pretty episodic and doesn't focus on the story enough which is culminated in a disappointing finale.

3. Better Call Saul - Season 3

It also really develops the cartel war that Mike finds himself between. My only real negatives were that the story allows the audience to know more then the characters which hurt the quality plus again there were a few more episodes then was needed. 

2. Better Call Saul - Season 4 

Better Call Saul (season 4) - Wikipedia The 2nd best season of the show, this further pushed Jimmy towards Saul Goodman and did a better job in making every story feel interesting and unique. This show felt like there was much more going on and that helped. The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of there was a few episodes in the middle that were a bit dull but apart from that this was a great season. 

1. Better Call Saul - Season 5 

AMC releases new Better Call Saul season 5 teaser and poster Now onto the best season of the show so far and that is the newest one season 5. This season is a huge improvement on the others and sees Jimmy pretty much further transform into Saul Goodman. It also makes the stories link more and has some truly brilliant supporting performances such as Mike, Kim & Lalo. A truly memorable season of television that will stand up for the forseeable future. 

Overall

Overall, according to my opinion this entire show is of a great standard with the 5th season being truly epic. If you aren't feeling this show early on I would suggest sticking with it as it truly gets better as time goes on and is one of the best shows out there.
