Kim Wexler Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

WARNING: Spoilers ahead for the series finale of “Better Call Saul.”“Better Call Saul” ended its six-season odyssey with Jimmy/Saul/Gene (Bob Odenkirk) sentenced to 86 years in federal prison, where he bid an emotional goodbye to ex-wife Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn) — but not before exonerating her, in a final colorful courtroom flourish, of any wrongdoing in covering up Howard Hamlin’s execution-style death several years earlier.“I saw the [finale] for the first time Monday night,” Seehorn told The Post Tuesday. “I watched it with a couple of people from the show and loved ones and significant partners and it was very moving.”Monday night’s finale, “Saul Gone,” included scenes from all three timelines in the “Better Call Saul” universe and featured surprise appearances from Marie Schrader (Betsy Brandt) — the widowed wife of “Breaking Bad” DEA agent Hank Schrader (Dean Norris) — and, in a flashback, Chuck McGill (Michael McKean), Jimmy’s brilliant-yet-troubled older brother who killed himself in the Season 3 finale of “Better Call Saul.” Walter White (Bryan Cranston) also materialized in a “Breaking Bad” flashback.The episode turned its main focus on Saul’s shattered relationship with Kim, now living a drab, boring life in central Florida designing brochures for a sprinkler company and sporting shorter (and dark) hair.

Monday night’s 75th Emmy Awards.That’s a new all-time record for futility, people, and was one of the biggest snubs on television’s biggest night, part-and-parcel of the dominance of “Succession,” “Beef” and “The Bear.”“Better Call Saul” star Odenkirk was nominated six times for Best Lead Actor in a Drama for playing slimy lawyer Jimmy McGill — a k a Saul Goodman — but failed to ever take home a statuette.

After six seasons and 53 Emmy nominations, including seven for Outstanding Drama Series, Better Call Saul has left us without a single win.

Emmy Awards for the 2022-2023 TV season had to overcome the challenge of seeming like a complete afterthought — and for the most part it succeeded. The ceremony for the 75th Emmys was designed as a tribute to the medium, and featured reunions from shows such as “All in the Family,” “The Sopranos,” “Martin” and “Grey’s Anatomy,” the last of which featured the beloved, departed cast members Katherine Heigl and Justin Chambers, alongside OG stars Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson and James Pickens Jr.

Rhea Seehorn is opening up about a possible spinoff or revival of Better Call Saul one day.

Carol Burnett revealed what’s left on her bucket list.“George Clooney,” she joked during an interview with People for this week’s cover story.This is not the first time Burnett has spoken publicly about her love for the Oscar-winning heartthrob.During a 2013 appearance on “Larry King Now,” the former “Carol Burnett Show” star hinted at her Clooney affection.“Are there parts of your life you wished you’d been asked about more?” wondered King, who died in 2021.“Well, you know, is it true what’s going on between you and George Clooney would be interesting,” she joked in response.The Post reached out to Burnett’s rep for comment.While Burnett has accomplished so much in her decades-long career, she’s still sharpening her resume, like by appearing on “Better Call Saul” last year.The series follows a struggling con artist named Jimmy McGill, played by Bob Odenkirk, as he transforms into a criminal lawyer named Saul Goodman.

Better Call Saul star Rhea Seehorn is set to lead Vince Gilligan’s new TV series.The unnamed project will air on Apple TV+ and has been ordered for two seasons with Seahorn playing the lead, Deadline reports.Plot details remain under wraps, but the publication has described the forthcoming project as a “blended, grounded genre drama”.

It’s long past time she had her own show, and I feel lucky to get to work on it with her,” said Gilligan in a statement about the new project.“And what nice symmetry to be reunited with Zack Van Amburg, Jamie Erlicht and Chris Parnell! Jamie and Zack were the first two people to say yes to Breaking Bad all those years ago.

Better Call Saul fans have vented their frustration after the series was snubbed again at the 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards.The Breaking Bad spin-off has received 46 Emmy nominations in total since the show began in 2015, including seven this year, but hasn’t won a single one across six seasons.The trend continued at this year’s ceremony on Monday (September 12), with Bob Odenkirk losing out to Squid Game’s Lee Jung-jae in Outstanding Lead Actor and Rhea Seehorn, who plays Kim Wexler, losing Outstanding Supporting Actress to Ozark’s Julia Garner.Following the loss, fans expressed their anguish on Twitter, sharing Chuck McGill’s “what a sick joke” line from season three episode, Chicanery.“Better Call Saul not getting a single Emmy is very ironic,” one fan wrote. “In 10 years people will still be talking about it while the rest of these shows will become distant memories to everyone.”“Greatest prequel of all time,” another wrote. “What a sick joke!”You can check out more reactions below.No Emmy for Rhea SeehornNo Emmy for Bob Odenkirk#Emmys2022 #BetterCallSaul pic.twitter.com/38cRrArNwI— Rob (@_rob_the_bob_) September 13, 2022Better Call Saul not getting a single Emmy is very ironic.
