From the first episode when it premiered, Breaking Bad has had the viewers in a chokehold of intrigue, thrill, and adrenaline.

The drama series ran for five seasons, giving fans a story that enthralled them and left them wanting more. With an approximate $3 million budget for each episode, Breaking Bad did extremely well in ratings and managed to garner higher viewership each season. However, like all good things, Breaking Bad also had to come to an end.
Fans react to Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul’s reunion
Breaking Bad has been one of the most thrillingly provocative shows in the history of television, so giving it an ending that did justice to the overall narrative was very challenging. The series writers and crew made several permutations and combinations before ending the show this way.
But it seems like fans wanted it to go a different direction after witnessing the two lead actors Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul reunite at a rave party. The video went viral on X and fans couldn’t help but comment on how this should have been the ending of Breaking Bad.
Cranston and Paul are known to keep in touch and frequently enjoy each other’s company. The bond they made on the show has continued off-screen and to date, they are spotted together. But nobody ever thought of seeing them at a rave and that too while DJing some banging beats.
Breaking Bad finale was inspired by a Westerner
There seldom come shows like Breaking Bad that satisfy viewers from start to finish. Right from the first episode, Walter White and his conflicted dilemma intrigue viewers who keep coming back for more episodes. Eventually, after 5 full seasons of drug-making, deals went wrong, and an array of illegal activities, the show came to an end. Vince Gilligan, the creator of the show told Entertainment Weekly,
A lot of astute viewers who know their film history are going to say, ‘It’s the ending to The Searchers.’ And indeed it is. The wonderful western The Searchers has John Wayne looking for Natalie Wood for the entire three-hour length of the movie… It just gets me every time—the ending of that movie just chokes you up, it’s wonderful. In the writers’ room, we said, ‘Hey, what about the Searchers ending?’ So, it’s always a matter of stealing from the best.
Poignantly, the story ends right where it all started. Walter White’s looming death forces him to get his affairs in order and deal with everything that has been transpiring in the background. Jesse, on the other hand, gets to go away without any major confrontation that fans hoped to see. Nevertheless, the finale of the series managed to get the best out of the situation.
Breaking Bad is streaming on Netflix.
