Better Call Saul: Wine and Roses (2022)
Season 6, Episode 1
10/10
Excellent Premiere !
19 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Every scene involving Nacho is filled with tension. Jimmy and Kim hatch a plan in a scene that might be one of the best of the entire series, as Kevin Wachtell and Saul come face to face. We learn a little more about what the plan is, and our protagonists are trying to get to Cliff by planting cocaine in front of Howard's locker. Mike is still a stand up guy and ready to help Nacho, and Lalo talks to Hector and forms a plan of his own about finding proof against the chicken man. The DA even gets to shine and they are actually really smart, which I like. And Jimmy slips Lalo's name in front of them...

Overall, a really dynamic premiere that flows right into the second episode of the season. The cousins are here too and I got Breaking Bad Season 3 vibes, especially with the callback of people trying to get transported by hiding in the back of a truck. Also a phenomenal callback to 'Face Off' with Hector being told letters and ringing the bell to form words. Excellent start.
