When the very last episode of the hit series Breaking Bad was about to air, all the viewers, including myself, were on the edge of their seats. Not knowing if this show could possibly end with the same intensity that the show maintained through out its entirety. Well, I personally found that the show's final episode was very well done. Everything the viewer had hoped for was achieved.
The writers of the show, came to the realization that many shows seemed to fail to acknowledge; that the show does not have to end with some kind of surprise that will shock the viewer, or having something unrealistic take place. The writers simply showed that Breaking Bad can end with something that is very predictable but at the same time, enjoyable and amazing to watch. That is what the show was able to finish so perfectly. By no means was I surprised; but the show had successfully showed the viewer on its final air date, a character that for the entire show, that you were meant to root for, finish his businessmen, and those around him, got what they deserved one way or another.
Throughout the show, myself as a viewer, I was constantly on the edge of my seat, always admiring the acting and how great the writers were. For most shows, it would appear, that as they become bigger and bigger, they lose sight of what they were attempting to create. Due to the fact that because many shows become huge, and their budgets grow tremendously, they feel the need to implement bigger, massive, and huge explosions and high special affects. It comes to no surprise why a lot of people would lose interest in a show that becomes to concerned with making the special affects a larger priority than the story line. Breaking Bad, although the fan base was increasing at a very fast rate and yet, they never lost sight of what they were hoping to achieve, a simple individual that rose to his peak in a underground crime industry and came burning down. But at the same time being very realistic.
Nothing fancy, nothing over the top, a believable story, that had great acting, great music, and incredible writers. When those group of people come together, it shows. It showed me as a viewer, that these people may have been able to take part of a film or TV show individually, and made it some what better, but when you take people of their caliber, put them together, they create something that will be remembered for years to come. Over all, I believe that the show had a amazing life, and at the same time, a sad, but powerful ending. Something that I will most defiantly remember for the rest of my life, and I am sure that others will feel the same.
