Further, the network revealed that it renewed the drama for its sixth and final run, and it will be released in 2021 with just 13 episodes.

Bob Odenkirk, who plays Jimmy McGill, said that this is the best season in the series so far. He said that it should not be missed because the storyline is really amazing that even himself is in awe.
