What's on TV this week–Better Call Saul ends, She-Hulk: Attorney At Law begins

Welcome to What’s On, our weekly picks of must-watch shows. Here’s what you need to watch from Sunday, August 14 to Thursday, August 18. All times are Eastern. [Note: The weekend edition of What’s On drops on Fridays.]

The biggies

Better Call Saul (AMC, Monday, 9 p.m., series finale)

After six tremendous seasons (and a Breaking Bad run, of course), Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) is finally bidding adieu. We’ll find out how his story ends—miserably, let’s assume—in the Better Call Saul series finale. Hopefully, the episode also checks in one last time with Kim Wexler (Rhea Seehorn) and how things turned out for her in Florida after the most recent trip to Albuquerque. The A.V. Club will recap the hour and run a roundtable breakdown of the finale.

We’ll say goodbye to one TV lawyer only to make room for another. Disney+’s She-Hulk: Attorney At Law centers on Bruce Banner’s cousin, Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), who only wants to do her job, but a blood transfusion accidentally turns her into a superhero. The show also stars Jameela Jamil, Renée Elise Goldsberry, and Ginger Gonzaga, with featured appearances by Mark Ruffalo as Bruce (a.k.a. Hulk), Charlie Cox as Daredevil, and Tim Roth as Abomination. The A.V. Club will recap episodes weekly.

Hidden gems
