I missed the first episode of Breaking Bad and had to wait for the DVD to release. When it did, I bought it with a feeling that I would love the show. I would go on to watch the first season 4 times before the second season came out on DVD.
Back then, the show was originally supposed to be 3 seasons, but as the show grew in popularity AMC gave Gilligan the go ahead to plan a longer story arc. Honestly I was afraid that an extension may reduce the overall quality and integrity of the show. This was one of the few times that I am glad they added on to the original outline.
The show was very close to perfect for me. The setting and 'rules' they created were extremely realistic and they went by them almost entirely and I loved it even more for that.
The ending was perfect. As weird as this sounds, for me, it almost felt too perfect. I still need to watch it again though, but I have been letting what I saw sink in the past few days. I wish we had gotten more emotional content with Marie, especially post-Hank's death, it felt like she was too involved the entire series to kind of go on the back burner.
I was supposed to get 3 seasons and I got 5, yet I can't help but feel a bit sad that it is over. Great series.
BTW, I think Jesse is toast: He had to have passed those cops leaving a crime scene on a single dirt road and his prints were all over the meth lab. There may even be prints on Hank/Gomez to connect him to their murders.
Also, if the little kid was able to reach a hospital and be saved as long as they knew it was ricin, then could Lydia not just go to a hospital and tell them she got a phone call saying she was poisoned by ricin? She did not look too bad, seems like she could still be alive.
