But thanks to incredible acting and storytelling, that\u2019s exactly what happened. The show received rave reviews because of lead actor Bob Odenkirk (Saul Goodman\/Jimmy McGill) especially.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Now the series is about to launch its sixth and final season, which Odenkirk admitted is a bittersweet reality. The Emmy-award winning actor recalled having a \u201clittle breakdown\u201d while filming the last season of \u201cBetter Call Saul\u201d and experiencing his last turn as everyone\u2019s favorite crooked lawyer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Odenkirk described the experience in an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/culture\/2022\/feb\/19\/bob-odenkirk-better-call-saul-heart-attack-interview\"><span>interview<\/span><\/a><span> with The Guardian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThe other day, I kind of had a little breakdown on the set, where I got pretty emotional. I couldn\u2019t do the scene,\u201d he told the publication. But the actor explained how he hadn\u2019t fully processed the series ending and this moment was a reflection of that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI don\u2019t know what to do about it,\u201d he said, laughing. \u201cMy brain is like: \u2018F*** it. What else we got? Think about something else.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In the past five seasons, \u201cBetter Call Saul\u201d transformed from a \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d spinoff into a phenomenon that can stand on its own. The series, which was originally pitched as a comedy but became a drama, includes a slow burn that\u2019s big on character development. Season 5 ramped up the drama, leaving fans anxious to see how the story of Jimmy McGill concludes in the series finale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Odenkirk recently wrote his memoir, which is being released March 1. The Guardian wrote how the actor described the show by saying it \u201cbeat me up and left me by the side of the road, gasping for breath, but I gave it everything I had.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d alum is glad he didn\u2019t find extreme success early in his career. Odenkirk worked on big-name projects like \u201cSNL\u201d when he was younger, but didn\u2019t find real notoriety until \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d made Saul Goodman a household name. The actor reflected on how the timing was a blessing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI certainly had a feeling of: \u2018Oh my God, if this happened to me when I was 24, that\u2019ll mess you up.\u2019 Somehow I don\u2019t think I have to worry about being too famous now. I\u2019m 59, I don\u2019t have that much time left,\u201d he told The Guardian with a laugh. \u201cI had a f***ing heart attack!\u201d he shouted, \u201cI mean, come on.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The actor was referring to an incident that also happened while filming season 6 of the series. Odenkirk collapsed on set after suffering what he described as a \u201csmall heart attack.\u201d He spent a few weeks recovering and then went right back to work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2022\/tv\/news\/better-call-saul-season-6-premiere-1235174021\/\">Variety<\/a>, \u201cBetter Call Saul\u201d will be split into two parts. The series returns to AMC on April 18 with the first seven episodes while the second six episodes are scheduled to drop July 11.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire\u2019s first original film, Shut In, has made its cinematic debut, being met with rave reviews.
