    I have never seen anything so meticulous or sophisticated. All the characters are perfectly developed. The visual storytelling in Breaking Bad reaches the level that very rare tv series can do.

    Simply put, the best TV Show ever made, with the single best story ever written that I’ve ever seen/read/whatch/etc. A dark, moral complex drama that deals with human condition unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Actualy, it’s like a drug you can’t leave behind, more than Heisenberg’s master-cook!!

    Brilliantly acted, wonderfully scripted and probably the greatest antihero of tv history.
    This tv show is unparalleled and unrivalled and comes in the category of The Greatest shows of all time.

This season blew me away with its new characters and ideas, using foreshadowing and non-linear storytelling to hint what happens at the end. It makes you have definite opinions on the characters within and makes you truly feel the emotions they're going through. This season along with all the others makes Breaking Bad one of the greatest shows of all time.… Expand

    In this final season, we see the biggest war of the show. Not with Gus Fring or anyone else. It's Walter White against Heisenberg, and from the looks of it, Heisenberg has the upper hand.

One could even give this season so high a rating on the strength of that episode, as Heisenberg's reign of pride comes crumbling down on him and everybody he's cared for. It's a statement on pride and power, and how it grows out of control and can be our undoing.… Expand

    The "Breaking Bad". It is the best series i have ever watched. İt is a legend already. There is nothing to talk about this series but it is a legend. There is one more thing that the fifth season is the best season of this series.

    What more can be said. This is absolutely the greatest season of television EVER. How can you think otherwise? To this day, there is no single episode that is as good as Ozymandias and I don't think there ever will be. Perfection.

    O nível alcançado por Vince Gilligan e sua equipe foi espetacular. As performance, cast, roteiro, plot's, trilha sonora, fotografia, direção de arte, tudo é simplesmente único, e chega a ser assustador as vezes o cuidado com cada episodio aqui e sua importância futura. Nota 10.

    Breaking Bad is the drama to measure every other show by. The acting, writing, cinematography and character development is simply off the scale. It stands up to and even demands repeated viewings. There are great shows out there but BB is in a class by itself.

    one of the or the most tightly written gripping tale of a chemist turned drug lord is captivating at first glance. the series is slow but the moment to moment action sentiment keeps us in tacked. the is fabulous screen play is excellent and the overall production value is superb. its hard to put this into any genre as it creates its own with unique yet relevant plot.

    Season 5 of breaking Bad is spectacular. There is not many shows that can rival this one.

Each season of Breaking Bad progressively increased in quality and writing, and has eventually led to one of the most satisfying finales in tv history. The character development is stellar and it is almost impossible to compare season 1 Walter to season 5 Walter. Jesse has matured from the man- child he was in the first season to a more troubled and serious person. Hank, who was arrogant in the first season has become more humbled and a true hero of the story. Ozymandias which possibly might serve as the climax of the series is one of the most heartbreaking episodes of all time. The phone call scene is sad once you start to realize the purpose of it. Every episode of this season was beyond perfect and impossible to top but if I were to choose the ones that are the most memorable they would be, dead freight, say my name, buried, confessions, To'hajiilee, Ozymandias, Granite States and Felina. With this final installment of the series Breaking Bad is one of the most tragic, entertaining, and most importantly of all, the best Tv show of all time.… Expand
