“Better Call Saul” fans will “likely” have to wait another year to see how the “Breaking Bad” prequel series ends, as AMC Networks chief Josh Sapan says the Bob Odenkirk-led series will probably not premiere until early 2022.

“We still have some shifting around due to COVID-related production delays for our shows, as we mentioned in our prepared remarks,” Sapan said during the AMC parent company’s fourth-quarter and full-year 2020 earnings call Friday. “We have a fuller slate of the ‘Walking Dead’ universe shows than we’ve had in some time, with ‘The Walking Dead’ back and ‘Fear the Walking Dead’ back at full strength, and then the second season of ‘World Beyond.’
