The show "Breaking Bad" has to be one of the greatest Dramas I have ever seen. The show mixes violence, drugs, and chemistry into a combination that leaves you on the edge of your seat. The main character "Walter White" changes through the series from a typical family man into a master mind, drug king pin.
When I first seen the commercials for the show "Breaking Bad" I did not care much about it. The actor Bryan Cranston who plays "Walter White" was also the same actor from the show "Malcolm in the Middle". This led me to believe that the show would probably be a flop since this actor (who played a funny person) could not at all play a serious role. Especially someone who sells and makes meth...I was so wrong. It turns out, Bryan Cranston plays a magnificent role and there are no hints that he is the same actor playing the same character from "Malcolm in the Middle". Not only that, his character progresses throughout the series, going from a family man, working two jobs trying to support his family to then become a ruthless drug making, organized crime boss who's a stone cold killer.
Unfortunately, the show is about to end with only one more part to the 5th season. Every character on the show has grown on me and I am going to hate to see them depart. What makes this show classic is that these characters are easy to relate to and as much as you love the characters, you end up hating them as well.
