TopicBreaking Bad - How satisfied were you with the ending? [BEE Week 1]

Breaking Bad's ending survived its hype.

That is already better than what most shows can do with lesser hype. I agree Felina felt a little clean, so to speak, but it manages to keep to the promises of the show alluded to or demonstrated from the very beginning:

*Walter White must die.
*He fears must be realized.
*His cleverness is top-notch.

(El Camino also manages to keep its previously alluded/demonstrated promises to Jesse's ending in BB -- Vince Gilligan and the crew are mesters of respecting their previous material for if-this-then-what progression)

Ozymandias is incredible television and the best episode of its series (only One Minute competes) While I'm glad you included it for this discussion, it just continues to show how well BB stuck its landing -- I would have voted for 4/4 even with just Felina.

About the Nazis sucking: Nazis always suck. What's incredible about BB though is the show repeatedly had episodes that could have been season finales or perhaps even series finales. We see it in this topic right here -- these last three episodes have people saying they would have been fine and satisfied if the show ended with any of them. The show kept upping the stakes, which is great as a general rule, but once you get to Nazis it's usually time to quit before you go deeper into Crazy Town and I'm so glad BB didn't fall for the pressure of adding additional seasons.

What a legendary show.
