Season Review
Season 4 is the grief season: Chuck is dead, Jimmy is frozen in guilt he can’t name, and the show mines that silence for its most cinematic stretch — the German construction of Gus’s lab is a whole silent film. Kim’s arc (the pro bono pivot, the car-crash recklessness) turns her into the show’s co-lead tragedy. Jimmy’s exit interview — “S’all good, man” — christens Saul Goodman at the exact moment he’s hollowed out.
