What Is The Best BETTER CALL SAUL Or BREAKING BAD Season? (Worst To Best)

[dormammusubjective]

Better Call Saul is the most satisfied I've ever been with a series. Even more so than BB. But my favorite season of both was BB season 5. I'm not even sure I could rank the BCS seasons because it was all extremely consistent for me.

I don’t know if it’s fair to put El Camino in this list. It’s much harder to build character and story over two hours compared to 10+ hours

11. BB S1

Top 5 are top tier seasons, 3-5 are interchangeable and after them there’s a gap. Top 6-10 are all super close, but I would rank them that way, not interchangeably. BB had the highest highs but BCS was more consistent and better made overall IMO. On first watch I preferred BB but on rewatch BB wasn’t as strong, while BCS was much stronger. BB S1 is easily the weakest season of the show, but still great and BCS S1 is easily better than the early BB seasons IMO. BCS was top tier for S3-5, while BB was only top tier for S4-5. Both are top tier overall but as I’ve watched more shows they’ve gone lower in my top 10 shows list. Currently I’d rank them like Top8-10.

I would argue that BCS season 6 should be no.1

Nacho dies
Howard dies
Lalo dies
Kim comes clean
Jimmy redeems himself.

I don't think script writing gets any more perfect than the final season of Better call Saul.

[Rariix]

A sign of a great show is when its best seasons are the final ones

Great ranking! I’ve watched BB 2 times but I haven’t watched it since 2019 (both viewings was in 2019), and I’ve watched BCS 3 times since S5 finale aired in 2020, so the list might not be accurate until I’ve rewatched BB again, but anyway here’s my list and it was still tough to make:

NOTE: The list was made meant to be read from worst (bottom) to best (top)

1. BCS S6 - 10/10 - One reason this season is above BB S4 is because it has Lalo in it. He is my new favorite villain in the entire universe. And let’s not forget Nacho, Lalo, Kim, Howard and Jimmy’s fate that was previously unkown. Also this season feels most like THE ultimate BB/BCS Season and a closing chapter to this amazing universe.
2. BB S4 - 10/10 - The reason this season is above BB S5 is because it has Gus in it. He became my favorite villain on the whole show and it is the only season that can rival the number 1 spot in terms of intense and frightening scenes. I consider this season as a perfect TV season.
3. BCS S5 - 10/10 - This season is full of intense and captivating storylines, and it was the first and only time I had to experience the wait for a new season after that cliffhanger that took 2 years.
4. BB S5 - 10/10 - This season has perfect drama and the season is almost perfect for me. The only thing that’s holding it back is that it’s a little too dark for me.
5. BCS S4 - 9/10 - This is the most atmospheric season in the universe. From the origin of the superlab and how it was built to Jimmy selling cellphones in the middle of the night. Also this season has the best music-choices too.
6. BB S3 - 9/10 - This season is really good. The twins attacking Hank and Walter worrying for himself and Jesse. So many iconic and intense moments.
7. BCS S3 - 9/10 - Nacho’s plan with Hector, the drama between Jimmy and Chuck, and once again the introduction of Gus. What more can I say? This is the most intense season yet.
8. BB S2 - 8/10 - I thought this season was gonna be lower on the list, but then I remembered that this season is the introduction of Saul, Gus and Mike, and that alone moves it really high on the list.
9. BCS S1 - 8/10 - Great first season and it’s nice to see the early origins of Jimmy and Mike.
10. BCS S2 - 8/10 - A great season with quality in all aspects, but it’s not much going on, it’s just more of the same from season 1 which makes it as good, just not as "surprising" as S1.
11. BB S1 - 7.5/10 - Good first season, but a little slow for me. That said it’s been 3 years since I’ve watched it, so it might move higher on the list whenever I rewatch BB.
12. El Camino - 7/10 - It’s still good, but compared to 7hrs (or more) of great TV, it’s just 2 hrs of good TV/Movie.

[claystaggs]

Well shit I’m not good at these ranking things. I loved every episode in every season of both shows.
