From Season 4, Episode 8 'Coushatta' - Jimmy goes to great lengths to right a wrong, as Kim pulls out all the stops for a case; Mike lets his team blow off steam; Nacho receives a visitor.

New episodes of LUCKY HANK premiere Sundays at 9pm on AMC, catch up any time on AMC+.

Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White's lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is "fixer" Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy's transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts "criminal" in "criminal lawyer."

What an incredible introduction to one of the best characters in the BrBa BCS universe.
“Don’t worry, it’s gonna be like I’m not even here” as his music blasts through the entire restaurant.
Perfect.

This is the moment Lalo instantly became everyone's favorite character.

Nacho really helped decommission two Salamanca’s just for a third to show up😂

[aaronshelton]

The best part of the Salamanca family throughout the Breaking Bad universe. Once you think you’ve got rid of one, another even crazier one comes to take their place.

[lavendersnow]

Lalo's body when Walt and Jesse arrives to lab for the first time:
Don't worry. It's gonna be like I'm not even here.

[kenthefele]

The worried looks from Krazy-8 and the chef as Lalo just cooks and dances in the background perfectly conveys how he hides a very dangerous personality under his friendly exterior.

I love how friendly Lalo is BUT everyone is nervous around him. Brilliant.

[grantmarvin]

This introduction to Lalo is so cool. The fact that he's cooking in the back, the casual smile, the insistence on Nacho trying his food... It all says, "Hello. You don't know me, but you don't need to. I'm here for good. Get used to it." Then flashing that charming, chameleon-like, dangerous Lalo smile. What an amazing character.

Lalo: “It’s gonna be like i’m not even here!”

Also Lalo: Casually takes over the whole show…

[KrattarKrattar]

”It’s gonna feel like I’m not even here.”

*Literally takes over the restaurant on Day 1
*Becomes boss immediately over everything
*Bringing more charisma than whole ABQ
*Playing kartel-chess with Gus
*Going alphamale with Mike
*Owns Saul
*Sleeps 1h/night

The funny thing is Lalo is the friendliest out of the whole Salamanca Family... but if you cross him, he's the most dangerous.

[addictedtochocolate]

As a Mexican, i can say this is one of the best depictions we've ever gotten in any media of a regular, friendly Mexican dude who's pretty casual about everything... The fact that he is also insane and willing to kill people with a smile on his face just makes him even funnier for some reason

[benmaketh]

I love how Lalo bounces between Spanish and English. Firstly (as others have said) its a real pleasure to see and hear a legit bilingual person on the show and it shows that Lalo's brain is going a mile a minute.

[warlockassasin]

This character is awesome! It was so cool to see his friendship with Howard evolve

[callmehanson]

One of the first things Lalo says to Nacho, "You're going to die." Last season is going to be wild.

[ezekielbrockmann]

The dude who plays Nacho is incredible. He's simultaneously frightening and sympathetic at the same time.

[CoyoteManW]

Lalo's first scene: charming, friendly, sympathetic

Lalo's last scene (as of S607): evil, terrifying, sinister force of nature

[Moonlightgraeme]

To think this character started as a throw away line from breaking bad and just how amazing a character he would become.

[LEEboneisDaMan]

It really was a breath of fresh air watching someone in this universe who was as comfortable speaking both English and Spanish. That’s not an easy thing to do and it really adds to his character.

[sebdoesnothing]

Nacho: It’s been a tough time recently, but looks like things are finally under control :)

Lalo, teleporting into the kitchen: ZIEGLER…
