The season-three finale of Better Call Saul brought one longstanding relationship to an end, but AMC isn’t cutting its ties with Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk). Variety reports the network’s just renewed the acclaimed drama for a fourth season of backsliding and chicanery.


In a statement, Charlie Collier, president of AMC, SundanceTV, and AMC Studios, congratulated executive producers Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould on their pickup, as well as the superb third season: “Supporting artists we respect and admire; delivering truly outstanding character development and nuanced dramatic twists and turns; continuing a legacy of bold creative choices; loving writing that is the best in the business: Truly, ‘S’all good, man.” There’s no word on a production or premiere date for the Emmy-nominated drama’s fourth season, which is okay, because after “Lantern,” Jimmy, Kim (Rhea Seehorn), and viewers could probably use the rest.
