Kim has become one of the most important characters on BetterCallSaul but that wasn't always part of the plan. Says Peter Gould: 'If you watch the pilot of the show, she has probably three lines of dialogue.”
The significance of Kim’s role in Better Call Saul surprised even the show’s writers. As the Breaking Bad spinoff prepares to conclude its run, Rhea Seehorn’s portrayal of attorney Kim Wexler has proven to be just as significant as Bob Odenkirk’s main character. Many viewers have spent the bulk of the AMC series speculating over Kim’s fate, wondering why she never makes an appearance on Breaking Bad and what that could possibly mean.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY This risk is clarified in a terrible way during the Better Call Saul season 6 midseason finale, as Howard Hamlin gets shot and killed by a vengeful Lalo Salamanca . Howard’s in the wrong place at the wrong time, meeting a gruesome demise as a result. Still, Howard is there partially to confront Kim over the fact that she has been going along and even instigating Jimmy’s shady ways of winning on behalf of his clients.
“We had no idea, when we started, how important her character was going to be. If you watch the pilot of the show, she has probably three lines of dialogue.” A risk for prequels, and a risk for Better Call Saul when it was debuting in 2015, was the somewhat common refrain that viewers would be less invested as they already knew Saul’s fate and general trajectory. The spinoff was quick to distinguish itself, adding depth to Odenkirk’s protagonist. But it also stood with characters like Kim. Fans adored how the character fought for struggling characters that the justice system would overlook and would outright railroad at times.
It’s one of the most compelling portrayals on television, showcasing the strength of the medium at its best. Over the course of six seasons, Better Call Saul‘s audience has been afforded the space to invest in the relationship between Kim and Jimmy. Thanks to a combination of great acting, stellar writing, and expertly-crafted surprises, Kim evolved from an ostensibly supporting character to a fan favorite and unforgettable character in her own right.
