He was terrific in this week’s midseason finale, first getting comically flustered by Jimmy and Kim’s long con that made Howard look like a ranting and raving drug addict. But now we can see that Fabian was quietly crafting a complex character underneath those immaculate suits. HONORABLE MENTION | For six seasons of Better Call Saul, we’ve loved to hate Howard Hamlin, the slick lawyer played by Patrick Fabian. With ragged breaths and tears, James finally let the last of Henry’s walls down and showed us both the beauty and the pain of time travel. The actor was especially moving in the final scene, when Henry and Clare listened to an audio recording of his mother answering a question from Clare that his future self delivered in the past.

He leaves a legacy that will live on for decades if not centuries.Stranger Things’ Final Season Enlists Cloverfield Lane, Prey Director He was one of the most polite and delightful people we ever had the opportunity to meet.
