Breaking Bad (2008-2013)


Genre: TV / Drama / Author’s Favorites
Starring: Bryan Cranston, Anna Gunn, Aaron Paul
Number of seasons: 5



Walter White is a genius of chemistry who, for various reasons, has settled into a job as a high school teacher of that science. When the series starts, he also works part-time in a car wash to earn extra money to support his family. After finding out that he has lung cancer, Walt decides to cook meth with a former student of his, Jesse Pinkman, to insure his wife’s and kids’ financial well-being long after he is gone. As he hides his business under the nose of his DEA cop brother-in-law, Hank, Walt starts to find more power in the drug business than he has ever had before.

This remains one of my favorite TV shows of all-time. All of the character, whether they are main or supporting, are all well developed and interesting. And the cast chosen to deliver them on screen were all solid in their roles. The script is absolutely badass. So many scenes come to mind as must-see. I have seen this again and again, and I will revisit it again someday.
