The ending f-cking sucked.

Not sure how it ruins the series at all. Saul decided to take responsibility for his actions. It's a sign of character growth. He was a selfish irresponsible money-driven twat throughout both this and Breaking Bad, and in the end, he decides to man up and face the consequences of his actions in the most fitting way possible save his being murdered in some horrible way. In the end, his love for Kim is what compels him to make the moral choice to sacrifice himself and save her. It was a fine ending that redeemed him as a character in a way that was both grounded and logical.

It's not pleasant seeing a character you've grown to like for an entire run of a show land in prison for life at the end, even one as despicable as he was, but given that the narrative message of both this and Breaking Bad is that you can't escape the consequences of your actions forever, it's the only way it could have ended, again, save a bullet to his head.

It was incredibly underwhelming. The season goes down hill starting with episode 10.

Someone needs to remaster the black & white episodes into full color. There was zero reason to have the post-Breaking Bad era in black & white. If it was to convey atmosphere & immersion, all they succeeded in doing was creating annoyance and frustration.

It was definitely a bit of a meh ending, but "it possibly ruined the entire series" is one of the most asinine hot-take overreactions I've heard in a while. XD

Finally got a chance to watch season 6. I suppose the ending was a bit underwhelming. I'm sure most of us were expecting Saul to make some grand exit, possibly with Kim and they flee to some country together to start up a new criminal enterprise.

I still liked the show and thought it was a great spin-off. Most of these spin-offs fall a little short in my view but this one was quite imaginative and creative. The script was really good. It was like Saul and Kim were lawyer versions of Bonnie and Clyde, and the dynamics going on between Jimmy and Chuck was interesting. It's quite a unique story that eventually builds up to the events of BB.

That being said, I didn't find it as good as BB. It seemed to linger on a bit, of course, that's the downside of TV shows, they just go on and on forever. Still, I got to give BCS a VERY solid 8.2 out of 10. This is good stuff...

To each their own, but to me it feels fitting. Of course he would be his own downfall, because it's been too long and he just can't resist a scheme once he concocts one.

And prison felt inevitable, right. Having him get away with it all again wouldn't have really felt like an end, because we'd seen that so many times before. Having him die would've felt like too much, and like it was just copying Breaking Bad.

Also, I feel like the time he got for the crimes he was convicted for was a bit much, as he wasn't directly involved in the murders and so on. However, it felt sort of cumulatively just for all the things he got away with beforehand.

I think the best way is to view the first half of the season as the climax and the second half as the coda.

I actually have no desire to rewatch the series again (which I had done a few times before) because of this disastrous finale. That's the worst sin of all.

Nothing was remotely earned, hilariously bad and illogical out-of-character actions, and it deflates everything that led up to it. It's honestly on a similar level to GoT in this regard, except the BCS/BB fanbase apparently just shut off their brains and forced themselves to accept it.

To each their own. I think it was a fitting ending.

As Chuck said, Jimmy wasn’t a bad person, he just couldn’t help himself. Deep down he still had a conscience and felt guilty for what he did. But, he would always hurt people.

The fact that in Nebraska he couldn’t simply live a quiet life and went back to his schemes, shows that there was no redemption for him outside of prison.

So, having him confess his sins and stay in prison for life was the best outcome for him.
