<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qA5J7l2ovKM" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe> The season four premiere of AMC's original series "Better Call Saul" airs Monday, August 6th at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. On the season premiere, "Smoke," Jimmy struggles to cope with Chuck's tragic death, while Mike ponders his role at Madrigal and Howard makes a startling confession. The episode is written by Peter Gould and directed by Minkie Spiro. In "Better Call Saul's" fourth season, Chuck's death catalyzes Jimmy McGill's (Bob Odenkirk) transformation into Saul Goodman. In the wake of his loss, Jimmy takes steps into the criminal world that will put his future as a lawyer - and his relationship with Kim (Rhea Seehorn) - in jeopardy. Chuck's (Michael McKean) death deeply affects former colleagues Howard (Patrick Fabian) and Kim as well, putting the two of them once again on opposite sides of a battle sparked by the Brothers McGill. Meanwhile, Mike Ehrmantraut takes a more active role as Madrigal Electromotive's newest (and most thorough) security consultant. It's a volatile time to be in Gus Fring's employ, as Hector's collapse sends shock waves throughout the Albuquerque underworld and throws the cartel into chaos - tearing apart both Gus and Nacho's well-laid plans. While Gus changes course, Nacho finds himself in the crosshairs of deadly forces. |

Now that The Americans is over, I think this and Fargo are the only ongoing network shows still considered 'appointment' television for me. Can't wait :up:

Terrific article by the great TV writer Alan Sepinwall on Vince Gilligan before tonight's season premiere :
A Candid Conversation With Vince Gilligan on ‘Better Call Saul’ Though I do have a hard time believing that Vince has people telling him they like "Saul" better than "Bad" every day. |

So this is the first time they're not having a "Talking Saul" after the premiere, right? I wonder if they just didn't want to bother because of the whole Hardwick situation.

So happy this is back.

The good news is S5 was already renewed this year, so hopefully we shouldn't have to wait 14 months for it to return.

Maybe, since they turned "Talking" into a series, they decided not to do the specials for Preacher and BCS. |

BCS has a FANTASTIC podcast after each episode. Each one lasts 90-120 minutes.

Usually wait for the season set to watch these but don't really want to wait 6 months this time.
AMC's website the best place to watch this free? If so when does each episode become available? |

Yes, assuming you pay for the channel with your cable/satellite/internet subscription package of course
The next day. Limited commercials. Edit : Website says Episode and Extras coming tonight to the streaming page. 2. What if I don't pay? Any legal and free options for me? Would pay if I wasn't going to buy the bluray on day 1 regardless. |

Does AMC require a login? I was able to test and watch Preacher episodes without.

1. Thank you!
2. What if I don't pay? Any legal and free options for me? Would pay if I wasn't going to buy the bluray on day 1 regardless. I mean you could purchase the 4th season a la carte via Amazon or Vudu. Looks like Vudu will have it for $20 in HD. They will usually post it the day after it airs. https://www.vudu.com/content/movies/...Series-/630368 |

Damn. Thanks for the responses. Will most likely wait for bluray. Long wait.

Good episode, but it was mostly an epilogue to "Lantern" and set-up for the rest of the season. Not a lot of meat there.

Got closure on Chuck, set up Mike in his new security job, and some adjustments to the business after Hector suffers his stroke. Jimmy's reaction at the end was pretty cold. He was only upset at the guilt of Chuck's death than his actual death. Once he found out that he wasn't responsible, he perked right up. I wonder if the car that couldn't start is the same type of car Jimmy upgraded to earlier in the series. They almost made a point of showing the guy being able to fit his coffee tumbler in the cup holder (which was a contrast to Jimmy's not being able to fit his in) in a wink, wink callback sorta way. |

It was good, but not much happened for a 50-minute episode... didn't feel that long though.

My favorite part was the opening scene and finally finding out what happened after Gene collapsed last season. Tense as hell. Just frustrating that we only get these small glimpses of present day Jimmy. I'm kind of hoping next season takes us into the present. Only down side on that is no more Mike and I will sure miss seeing him.
