"Better Call Saul" Season 5: Jimmy Looks to Make "Saul" Legal – Kim's Not So Sure [PREVIEW]

If you're a Breaking Bad universe fan, then Sunday night was a bittersweet one for you. On one hand, there's the heartbreak that came from the amazing one-two Breaking Bad finale combo of "Felina" and El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie – reminding us again why the Vince Gilligan masterpiece sets the bar for series finales. On the upside, it also signals one week until Gilligan and Peter Gould's Better Call Saul lands back on AMC with a two-night premiere event on Sunday, February 23 (paired with the midseason return of The Walking Dead), and Monday, February 24.

In the following sneak peek released during AMC's airing of El Camino, we get a sense of just how close Better Call Saul is to the Breaking Bad timeline, as Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) tries to convince Kim (Rhea Seehorn) that being "Saul Goodman" full time is the way to go… and a "What If?" moment fans will be debating for awhile:

Meanwhile, Nacho Varga tries to survive as Gus Fring's covert war on the cartel becomes a life-and-death chess match with the mercurial and relentless Lalo Salamanca
