Your Ratings For The Complete BCS Show


From S1E1 to the End of the Finale...

I would give it 8.5 /10

To me it was a show that ended brilliantly with seasons 5 and 6 being full of suspense and interest, with huge pay offs....I think it was a 10/10 show much of the time in these seasons.

I had really enjoyed Season 1, it had a good balance of comedy and interest (and that amazing Mike episode)...

But I remember finding seasons 2 and 3 such a meandering drag much of the time... It did feel like the writers had little idea of what they were doing or what they were aiming for...these are the really weak points of the show for me. I got so bored of Chuck....

Things started picking up in Season 4, with the Cartel and Kim stuff starting to become a major part of the story now, and you could finally see a point to where the story was going.

And then they pretty much smashed it out the park in Seasons 5 and 6.

But those seasons 2 and 3 had far too much "nothing happening" episodes, and brings down my rating of the show as a whole.

But when it was Good, it was Brilliant.

I found the first episode blah because I could not figure out why I should care about Saul Goodman and then from about episode 3 onward I was totally hooked and have loved every minute since then. But I think a lot of the show was about his relationship with Kim and I love relationship shows so what I was looking for was not primarily the fates of Nacho or his dad or Lalo or any of them, but mainly at how Saul's relationship with Kim ended up. I felt like the end really focused on that so I was happy with the ending.

If Breaking Bad is a 9,
Then Better Call Saul could be 8.5
They are so close in quality.
