Do we really need to feel sad about Saul?

Slippin’ Jimmy from Cicero was a low-life with no prospects.

James McGill Esq lived in a utility closet of a nail salon. The best thing he had going for him was that he was unaware of how much his brother hated him.

Jimmy McGill, the elder law attorney, has his professional life in better shape. The best thing going for him is his relationship with Kim, a person who genuinely understands and appreciates him. However, the central figure in Jimmy’s life is still Chuck. Jimmy now knows that Chuck hates him, and has to endure horrible treatment from Chuck, including the sabatoge of his professional life. And he’s about to find out that Chuck died a horrifying, suffering death.

Whatever you think about Saul Goodman, it’s clear that Saul doesn’t care what you think. He lives by his own rules, and by his own definition his practice is very successful. He is free from all the guilt and stress that comes with a mentally ill family member. He doesn’t appear to be pining over Kim (whether that means she is still in his life or not).

Remember that Gene cheered himself up by watching his BCS commercials, not with photos of Kim or Chuck. And remember “SG was here.” Those were his happy years.
