'Better Call Saul' Renewed for Sixth & Final Season on AMC

Better Call Saul has been renewed for a sixth season and AMC has announced that this one will be its last one.

The cast appeared at the network’s panel during the Television Critics Association winter press tour on Thursday (January 16) to share the news.

“From day one of Better Call Saul my dream was to tell the complete story of our complicated and compromised hero, Jimmy McGill – now AMC and Sony are making that dream come true,” showrunner Peter Gould said in a statement. “We couldn’t be more grateful to the fans and critics who are making this journey possible. Next month we start work on the sixth and final season — we’re going to do our damnedest to stick the landing.”

The final season will premiere in 2021 and will feature 13 episodes. The fifth season will air this year.
