Bob Odenkirk’s role as Saul Goodman was never supposed to last this long. Odenkirk originated the sleazy lawyer on Breaking Bad in 2009, in what he was told was going to be a brief, three-episode arc, but Goodman proved to be such a popular character that he remained on the series for the rest of its run. Almost immediately following Breaking Bad, Saul became the titular character in the AMC spinoff prequel Better Call Saul. If you’ve been following the show, you’re in luck: Better Call Saul season six premieres today, April 18—and we’ve got the details on how to stream it.

Production this season has been fraught with off-screen drama, including delays due to COVID-19 and a brief production hiatus after Odenkirk suffered a heart attack last July, but Odenkirk has recovered and the show’s final season (which will reportedly feature Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul playing their Breaking Bad characters Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, though additional details on the season are scarce) has wrapped production. The show will be available to watch on cable on AMC, but cord-cutters don’t have to worry: There are ways to stream the final season of Better Call Saul.

Where Can You Stream Better Call Saul?

Better Call Saul is also available to stream on AMC+, the streaming service that offers hundreds of episodes of acclaimed series featured on AMC, from the sly ‘60s drama Mad Men to the intense action of The Walking Dead. There are also titles exclusive to AMC+, from the period drama of The North Water to the animated mystery of Ultra City Smiths. All of that content is topped off with series produced by BBC America, Shudder and IFC Films Unlimited. Plans for AMC+ are available for $6.99 a month with a free 7-day trial period for first-time subscribers, and no cable subscription is necessary to subscribe.

Season six of Better Call Saul will also be available on Sling TV, the first app-based TV service that allows you to stream live television and on-demand content on the internet. Among Sling’s  offerings are live TV, local TV channels, DVR storage and a catalog of On Demand programming, starting at $35 per month. 

Better Call Saul season six will also be available on Netflix for UK subscribers starting Tuesday, April 19. Netflix also offers seasons one through five of the show for all subscribers everywhere for those who want to catch up. 

What is Better Call Saul Season 6 About?

Better Call Saul’s sixth season will run for 13 episodes, which will be released in two parts. Part one premieres today, Monday, April 18, with two episodes released on the day of the premiere itself and the remaining five episodes released weekly. The show will air on AMC at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The second half of season six, consisting of six episodes, premieres on Monday, July 11. Over the last five seasons, we’ve seen the progression of Odenkirk’s character, who starts as a criminal defense lawyer named Jimmy McGill, as he slowly becomes more involved with the criminal world and as he grows into the role of a savvy con-man and assumes the name Saul Goodman (a play on the phrase “It’s all good, man”). In this final season, show creator Vinge Gilligan has confirmed that we will see Saul as he meets Breaking Bad’s Walter White and Jesse Pinkman (Cranston and Paul), narrowing the time-gap between the two shows.
