I watched the series "Breaking Bad"

I watched the TV series Breaking Bad and in my opinion it is one of the best TV shows I have ever seen. It is about a well-meaning high school chemistry teacher Walter white and how he transforms into the infamous drug kingpin Heisenberg.

Walter discovers that he has lung cancer and only has limited time on this planet. With a pregnant wife and disabled son, he turns to the world of methamphetamine manufacturing using his high-end chemistry skills. He slowly turns into this dangerous villain whom his wife later dreads.

What I liked about the show was that how realistic it was. There was a scene where Walter White was given an offer from his friend for health insurance which will pay for his cancer treatment but due to his ego, he refuses and finds crime a better option thereby endangering his family and loved ones. Which is contradicting to "Heisenberg" saying that he does crime to protect his family.

In the end, the show has a bittersweet ending with "Heisenberg" ended up dying as that man becomes beyond redemption. An overall excellent show which is a must watch.
