The real lesson is that there’s no folk like prison folk

I'd watch FIVE FULL SEASONS of Better Call Saul in jail.

Draft finale titles found the writer's room floor:
Saul's Well That Ends Well
Saul She Wrote
Diamonds on the Saul of her shoes
Saul most got away with it if it weren't for you meddling grannies
Better Call Oakley

Save yourself by telling the truth and taking the weight.
She didn't need saving, per se, but she certainly didn't seem "whole" in Florida. They're both now at peace with themselves.

I don't think Vince and Peter will be able to resist doing another show in this universe. They've said in interviews they have ideas and would never rule it out completely.

She needed saving from Florida. But she was the one who saved herself, in the penultimate episode. I think Kim thought Florida was a punishment or a way to break from every element of her old life and remove any temptation to break bad again. She saved herself by coming clean to Hamlin's widow and the Albuquerque DA. She's willing to take whatever punishment, but she's also now able to release herself from purgatory and live more like authentic Kim lives, without fear of breaking bad: sharing a cigarette with Jimmy, volunteering at the legal aid.

yeah, but again Peter said that after Breaking Bad they already had BCS developed and this time, there is nothing there. So who know.
I would love for them to revisit Saul and Kim in a few years.

At this time, I'd be interested to know more about the past of Mike or Lalo & other Salamancas, but I feel like their type of story/character has been done before.

A Gus prequel feels like the obvious answer as long as Albuquerque can fill in for Chile. You could weave in the Cartel as the B plotline throughout.
