My boyfriend and I are big fans of Breaking Bad. Who isn't? One thing that's frustrating about the show is that it is unbelievably unpredictable. Just when you think the show is headed in one direction, it totally surprises you with something else. I'm truly impressed by the genius of the writers of this show. They are absolutely amazing.The show is down to its final season but the last episodes don't air until summer of 2013. Aaah! That's almost a year from now. Ugh! It's just torture having to wait that long. Anyway, my BF and I are trying to predict how the series is going to end.
Before the final episode of the first part of season five, I hated Walter and wanted him dead. But alas, the writers have a way of making you change your mind. Before the last episode of this season, here was my prediction for the end of the series:
Walter gets out of hand and still continues to produce meth, with his new partners as distributors. Since he now has a new protege, he no longer needs Jesse to help him produce meth. Since Walter wants to get rid of all of Mike's men in order to eliminate any possibilty of tracing anything back to him, he must also get rid of Jesse. Jesse finds out and yada yada yada...skip to the final scene. Jesse and Walter get into a confrontation. Remember season four when Jesse almost killed Walter because he thought Walter poisoned his girlfriend's son? Yeah, just like that. But this time, Walter is unable to talk his way out of it. Jesse says a few choice words. It's all emotional. Close-up of Jesse pulling the trigger. Fade to black...
Yes, Yes. I know it's a lame ending but for some reason, I like "fade to black" endings. No, not really. But that was all I could think of. haha. I think the "fade to black" scenario tends to happen when you can think of no other creative ways to end a show.
The final episode of season 5 part 1 totally ruined my prediction. I have no idea what's going to happen and now I'm rooting for Walter again. No matter what, I hope Jesse gets out of this unscathed.
Anyway, Breaking Bad is an awesome show with great writing, a wonderful and talented cast, and a unique and brilliant premise. If you're not watching it already, I suggest you start. Or at least wait until the end of the series so you can marathon it. :)
