Gene Takovic's Story | Better Call Saul

Jimmy: Chaotic Good
Saul: Lawful Evil
Gene: True neutral

Can someone pleaae tell me why the last episodes of better call saul àre black and white. Its such a buzzkill for me

The original Jeff would've been so much better than what we got, would've loved to see the original slip and fall while stealing clothes😂

I am curious if the footage of Ed is unused footage from Breaking Bad or El Camino since Robert Forster passed away in 2019

Anyone else notice how much he looks like the BTK killer?

He knew he was boned as soon as the dude recognized him. Great writing.

When I'm at the pearly gates
This'll be on my videotape, my videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
And he's reaching up to grab me
This is one for the good days
And I have it all here
In red, blue, green
Red, blue, green
You are my centre
When I spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape
This is my way of saying goodbye
'Cause I can't do it face to face
I'm talking to you before
No matter what happens now
You shouldn't be afraid
Because I know today has been
The most perfect day I've ever seen

The Gene sequences in Season 6 pretty much stunk as did the series finale IMO. The sequences weren't too bad in the previous seasons as they gave a bit of mystery and surrealism. But in Season 6? Forget it.

Milton Krupnik!?

I wonder how 50 yr old Cinnabon managers felt about their life after that

It's so good that the demise of Gus, the cartel, Saul, and so many others begins the minute Walter walked through that door for help, and when later he recommended Gus fring to him. Now by this point it's all ruined, Gus has been killed and the entire restaurant chain gone, the DEA has sucessfully demolished the cartels and the drug trade, Jessie has fled north to Alaska and gone native, the Salamanca's are gone so he can't rely on any protection, Walter is dead, Mike the enforcer guy Saul can rely on is gone, Saul's been found out, on the run from police, and now is having to rely on a disguise and good acting to survive now. He's got no options, his lawyer days are done, his business is gone, most of his money gone, he's got no allies left, he can't even board a plane to flee, he's stuck trying to be a wallflower, but that's one thing Saul isn't good at. I think he knows he's not gonna last.

I love the scene where he breaks bad and yells to the shopflifter: "You better call Saul"

Good 😊 i really enjoyed watching this

This is when Saul became Nobody.

watching saul's world turn from colored to grey when he calls the vacuum guy is so beautifully depressing. it's like watching the beginning of the end and the color shifting makes so much sense for that.

It's all good man!
- Saul Goodman

Throughout the early Gene fast forwards, I genuinely felt for Jimmy.

Guys, I know this theory sounds absolutely insane, but hear me out! I think this Gene Takovic guy might actually be Saul Goodman.

Saul not only had to change his identity he even had to goto someplace where there were no colors other than black & white.

Gene soooo wanted to be the lawyer for that shop lifter lol

Kinda funny he was dead on about the Cinnabon.

He should have changed his name to Gene Tukovic

I just finished BCS S6 and I’m sad asf because the universe we’ve loved for 15 years is officially over. 7 years to 86 years god damn it

God damn when someone uses a different name and a fake mustache, it's a pretty clear sign to leave them the hell in peace.

Man this scene is so good. I love his acting.. he's incredible and the writing is amazing as always

How did he fix it?

It’s so sad that Jimmy McGil went from a sly scammer who lived in a nice place with Kim to Saul Goodman who lived the height of luxury in a giant mansion straight back down into Gene Takovic living in a worn down apartment building.

What's the name of that jazz instrumental that plays in the first gene scene in this video?

I love the scene where Gene yells "Get a lawyer!"

"Omaha United Cabs. Never more than 5 minutes away."

🧢🧢🧢

They swapped out the cab driver actor the first man is more masculine

I like how Gene is basically Saul's punishment: Knowing he used to be loved and respected to being nobody and easily overcomed, the sad melanchonic mall music representing how he used to be the energetic "Jimmy", even the fact that he looks similar to Walter (an old guy that got easily mocked).

God can you imagine the damn ANXIETY

This is the moment where Saul became Genesenberg

I'm glad they switched the actor who played Jeffy because I don't think it would've been as good with the first guy

Here after watch Breaking Bad and El Camino, time to watch final espisodes of Better Call Saul now

WHAT IS THE SONG AR THE BEGINNING OF THE CINNABON PART CALLED?

It's interesting how Gene/Jimmy basically turned into Walter White near the end of the show. Without his regular trickery, his life got meaningless and grey and he wanted some action, but he couldn't stop. So he even "hired" those 2 regular guys to do the shop heist and stuff. The way he talked and manipulated with those 2 guys, it was VERY Heisenberg-like. Not to mention his looks.


BTW wasn't the name "Takavic" not "Takovic"? ?

The thing is that it's Serbian surname. Hell yeah, didn't know Serbia is so famous.

Saul Goodman = "It's all good man!"
Gene Takovic = "Gonna take a Vac(vacation)!"
Had to say it....LOL they are so good with this

He looks Johnny lol

I'm not one to be greedy, but I'd REALLY love to know what Mr. Driscoll is up to in Alaska.....

why is his name pronounced as "takovik" ? its a slovenian/croatian surname its to correct written from is takovič and the č should sound like ch on the end of the word sandwich
