Better Call Saul S06: Jonathan Banks Shares Mike’s Story in 60 Seconds

So we’ve had a pretty productive week when it comes to covering the sixth & final season of Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould‘s Bob Odenkirk & Rhea Seehorn-starring Better Call Saul. From getting the speculation fires raging with the overviews & director/writer credits for S06E01 “Wine and Roses” & S06E02 “Carrot and Stick” to wondering just how much “suck” Nacho’s (Michael Mando) life has become, there’s been a lot to think about ahead of the show’s April return. But this time around, we’re going fun and informative with series star Jonathan Banks aka Mike Ehrmantraut being tasked by co-star Tony Dalton to share with us everything we need to know about his character over the course of two series.
