Sony started to shop the show around, having gained quick interest from the FX network for two more seasons, upon which AMC changed its mind and allowed the show to continue.<a href="#cite_note-thr_20190918-37">[37]</a> At the same time, <a href="/wiki/Netflix" title="Netflix">Netflix</a> was starting to aggressively shop for content to add to its service and arranged a deal with Sony for Breaking Bad to be available after the airing of the fourth season. Knowing that AMC had placed Breaking Bad on a potential cancellation route, Sony pushed to have the show added to the service in time for the fourth season. Breaking Bad's viewership grew greatly as viewers <a href="/wiki/Binge-watching" title="Binge-watching">binged</a> the series on Netflix, helping to assure that a fifth season could be made. The fifth-season premiere had more than double the viewership compared to the fourth season premiere, attributed to the Netflix availability.<a href="#cite_note-thr_20190918-37">[37]</a> Gilligan thanked Netflix at the Emmy Awards in September 2013 after the series' conclusion for the popularity of the series, saying that Netflix "kept us on the air".<a href="#cite_note-Hernandez-2014-38">[38]</a> As the series progressed, Gilligan and the writing staff of Breaking Bad made Walter increasingly unsympathetic.<a href="#cite_note-THR-21">[21]</a> Gilligan said during the run of the series, "He's going from being a protagonist to an antagonist. We want to make people question who they're pulling for, and why."<a href="#cite_note-Bowles0713-22">[22]</a> Cranston said by the <a href="/wiki/Breaking_Bad_(season_4)" class="mw-redirect" title="Breaking Bad (season 4)">fourth season</a>, "I think Walt's figured out it's better to be a pursuer than the pursued.

AMC proposed a shortened fifth season (six to eight episodes, instead of 13) to cut costs, but the producers declined. Sony then approached other cable networks about possibly picking up the show if a deal could not be made.<a href="#cite_note-Hibberd-2011-40">[40]</a> On August 14, 2011, AMC renewed the series for a fifth and final season consisting of 16 episodes.<a href="#cite_note-final_season-41">[41]</a> In April 2012, Bryan Cranston revealed that the fifth season would be split into two halves, with the first eight episodes airing in 2012, and the final eight in 2013.<a href="#cite_note-42">[42]</a> Before the series finale, Gilligan said that it was difficult to write for Walter White because the character was so dark and morally questionable: "I'm going to miss the show when it's over, but on some level, it'll be a relief to not have Walt in my head anymore."<a href="#cite_note-Segal0706-43">[43]</a> Gilligan later said the idea for Walter's character intrigued him so much that he "didn't really give much thought on how well it would sell", stating that he would have given up on the premise since it was "such an odd, dark story" that could have difficulties being pitched to studios.<a href="#cite_note-tease-27">[27]</a> Ultimately, Gilligan chose to end Breaking Bad with Walter's death, occurring in-story two years after he had first been diagnosed with cancer and given two years to live.

When Gilligan left much of Walter's past unexplained during the development of the series, the actor wrote his own <a href="/wiki/Backstory" title="Backstory">backstory</a> for the character.<a href="#cite_note-Segal0706-43">[43]</a> At the start of the show, Cranston gained 10 pounds to reflect the character's personal decline, and had the natural red highlights of his hair dyed brown. He collaborated with costume designer Kathleen Detoro on a wardrobe of mostly neutral green and brown colors to make the character bland and unremarkable, and worked with makeup artist Frieda Valenzuela to create a mustache he described as "impotent" and like a "dead caterpillar".<a href="#cite_note-Sepinwall-2009-48">[48]</a> Cranston repeatedly identified elements in certain scripts where he disagreed with how the character was handled,<a href="#cite_note-Laporte-2013-49">[49]</a> and went so far as to call Gilligan directly when he could not work out disagreements with the episode's screenwriters. Cranston has said he was inspired partially by his elderly father for how Walter carries himself physically, which he described as "a little hunched over, never erect, [as if] the weight of the world is on this man's shoulders". In contrast to his character, Cranston has been described as extremely playful on set, with Aaron Paul describing him as "a kid trapped in a man's body".<a href="#cite_note-Segal0706-43">[43]</a> <a href="/wiki/Aaron_Paul" title="Aaron Paul">Aaron Paul</a>'s casting was also initially questioned by production, as Paul looked too old and too much of a "pretty boy" to be associated with meth cooking.

My girlfriend says this great thing that's become my philosophy as well. "I want to believe there's a heaven.

Klosterman added that the central question of Breaking Bad is: "What makes a man 'bad' – his actions, his motives, or his conscious decision to be a bad person?" Klosterman concluded that in the world of Breaking Bad, "goodness and badness are simply complicated choices, no different than anything else".<a href="#cite_note-grantland-20">[20]</a> <a href="/wiki/Ross_Douthat" title="Ross Douthat">Ross Douthat</a> of The New York Times, in a response to Klosterman's piece, compared Breaking Bad and The Sopranos, stating that both series are "<a href="/wiki/Morality_play" title="Morality play">morality plays</a>" that are "both interested in <a href="/wiki/Moral_agency" title="Moral agency">moral agency</a>". Douthat went on to say that Walter White and <a href="/wiki/Tony_Soprano" title="Tony Soprano">Tony Soprano</a> "represent mirror-image takes on the problem of evil, damnation, and free will". Walter is a man who "deliberately abandons the light for the darkness" while Tony is "someone born and raised in darkness" who turns down "opportunity after opportunity to claw his way upward to the light".<a href="#cite_note-Douthat-2011-80">[80]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Devotion_to_family">Devotion to family</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Breaking_Bad&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Devotion to family">edit</a>]</div> The show explores most of the main characters' connections to their families in great detail.

Gus convinces him to stay, telling him it is a man's job to provide for his family, even if he is unloved.<a href="#cite_note-Simmons-2010-82">[82]</a> In the <a href="/wiki/Felina_(Breaking_Bad)" title="Felina (Breaking Bad)">final episode of the series</a>, Walt finally admits to Skyler that the main motivation for his endeavors in the meth business was his own interest, in spite of secretly securing the $9.72 million he had managed to salvage for her and the children. Jesse's loneliness in the early seasons of the show can be partly explained by his parents' decision to kick him out of their home due to his drug-related activities. This parental disconnect brings him closer to Jane, whose father berates her for her drug use. When Walt crosses paths with Jane's father, Walt refers to Jesse as his nephew and laments the fact that he cannot get through to him. Jane's father responds by telling him to keep trying, saying, "Family. You can't give up on them, ever. What else is there?"<a href="#cite_note-Bowman-2009-83">[83]</a> Jane's subsequent death, which Walt purposefully did not prevent, is a major factor in her father causing the airliner crash at the end of the second season. Even the show's more hardened characters maintain ties to family. In the <a href="/wiki/Breaking_Bad_(season_2)" class="mw-redirect" title="Breaking Bad (season 2)">second season</a>, Tuco Salamanca spends time caring for his physically disabled uncle, Hector. When Tuco is killed by Hank, his cousins vow revenge. Their actions are further explained in a flashback, where Hector explains to the brothers that "La familia es todo" ("Family is everything"). Gustavo Fring's franchise Los Pollos Hermanos translates to "The Chicken Brothers". This refers to the fact that the company was co-founded by Gus and a man named Max. When Max is killed by Hector Salamanca, Gus vows to destroy the Salamanca family and in particular to humiliate Hector and prolong and draw out his suffering.<a href="#cite_note-atlantic-81">[81]</a> In the first part of the <a href="/wiki/Breaking_Bad_(season_5)" class="mw-redirect" title="Breaking Bad (season 5)">fifth season</a>, it is explained that Mike Ehrmantraut's intentions for being in this business were to provide for his granddaughter's future, and by his final episode he is conflicted when having to leave her in a park by herself once he has been warned that the police are onto him. During the second part of the fifth season, white supremacist Jack Welker says "don't skimp on family", and he lets Walt live after capturing him in the desert because of love for his nephew Todd Alquist, who has great respect for Walt. <a href="/wiki/Lydia_Rodarte-Quayle" class="mw-redirect" title="Lydia Rodarte-Quayle">Lydia Rodarte-Quayle</a> repeatedly demands that if Mike insists on killing her, that he leave her in her apartment so her daughter can find her, fearful she will think Lydia abandoned her. Much like Walt and Mike, Lydia seems to engage in the meth business in order to provide for her daughter, with actress Laura Fraser stating in an interview that Lydia's daughter is important to how "Lydia justified what she did to herself".<a href="#cite_note-84">[84]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Pride">Pride</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Breaking_Bad&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Pride">edit</a>]</div> <a href="/wiki/Hubris" title="Hubris">Pride/hubris</a> is a major theme in Walter White's tragic character arc.

Austin Gill of Xavier University stated the episode "evokes the tyrannical aspirations of invincibility and arrogance of Ozymandias himself as represented in Shelley's poem".<a href="#cite_note-88">[88]</a> Douglas Eric Rasmussen of the <a href="/wiki/University_of_Saskatchewan" title="University of Saskatchewan">University of Saskatchewan</a> argued that the "concept of hubris and being punished for grandiose projects that serve an individual's egotism are central aspects of each work".<a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> Hank's death marks the beginning of a shift where it becomes increasingly difficult for Walt to continue to insist that he cooks meth for the sake of his family's well-being. By the series finale, Walt finally admits to Skyler that he became Heisenberg for his own ego: "I did it for me. I liked it.

And what makes it so exciting – what makes the recognition of the current golden age so pressing – is that the season has not been, as [another reviewer] put it in another context, 'television good.' The heart-in-the-throat quality of this season comes as much from the writers' exhilarating disregard for television conventions as from the events portrayed."<a href="#cite_note-Bowman-2010-143">[143]</a> Season four won near-universal critical acclaim. <a href="/wiki/The_Boston_Globe" title="The Boston Globe">The Boston Globe</a> referred to the show as a "taut exercise in withheld disaster" and declared the show "riveting".<a href="#cite_note-Gilbert,_Matthew-2011-144">[144]</a> The <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh_Post-Gazette" title="Pittsburgh Post-Gazette">Pittsburgh Post-Gazette</a> labeled the series "smart and thought provoking that elevates the artistic achievements of the medium".<a href="#cite_note-Owen,_Rob-2011-145">[145]</a> Season four was listed by many critics as one of the best seasons of television in 2011.<a href="#cite_note-Koo-2011-146">[146]</a> Time listed Walter White's "I am the one who knocks" line as one of the best television lines of 2011.<a href="#cite_note-Poniewozik-2011-147">[147]</a> The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette listed it as the best series of 2011 while noting that "Breaking Bad is that rare TV series that has never made a seriously damaging storytelling misstep".<a href="#cite_note-Owen-2011-148">[148]</a> The A.V. Club's review of the finale summed it up as a "fantastically fitting end for a season that ran in slow motion, starting and continuing with so many crises begging for resolution week after week. Now the decks are cleared, but that doesn't mean anybody is home free. Nothing's ever easy on Breaking Bad." The reviewer continued to exalt the season, and proclaimed, "What a season of television – truly something none of us could ever have expected, or claimed we deserved."<a href="#cite_note-Bowman-2011-149">[149]</a> Both halves of the fifth season received overwhelming critical acclaim. Following the end of the series, critic Nick Harley summarized his commendation of the show: "Expertly written, virtuosic with its direction, and flawlessly performed, Breaking Bad is everything you could want in a drama.

But I remember one afternoon, somebody said – and I was kind of into it for a while – "Wouldn't it be really ironic if Walt is the only one to survive this?" Because it does seem so obvious that Walt should expire at the end of the final episode – but maybe he's the only one left alive. Maybe he still does have a death sentence, but we go out on him alive, and maybe his whole family's been wiped out. That would have been really f—ing dark. </blockquote> <cite class="left-aligned" style="">— <a href="/wiki/Vince_Gilligan" title="Vince Gilligan">Vince Gilligan</a>, on an <a href="/wiki/Alternate_ending" title="Alternate ending">alternate ending</a><a href="#cite_note-10th-anniversary-185">[185]</a></cite> </div> <a href="/wiki/Variety_(magazine)" title="Variety (magazine)">Variety</a> held a Q&A with most of the original writing staff to reflect on the show's run, the final season, the writing process, and alternative endings. Along with creator Vince Gilligan, fellow writers and producers <a href="/wiki/Peter_Gould" title="Peter Gould">Peter Gould</a>, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Schnauz" title="Thomas Schnauz">Thomas Schnauz</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gennifer_Hutchison" title="Gennifer Hutchison">Gennifer Hutchison</a>, <a href="/wiki/Moira_Walley-Beckett" title="Moira Walley-Beckett">Moira Walley-Beckett</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sam_Catlin" title="Sam Catlin">Sam Catlin</a> and <a href="/wiki/George_Mastras" title="George Mastras">George Mastras</a> joined to discuss memories from the show's humble beginnings, character transformations that concluded in the final season as well as surprising developments along the way. For instance, Jesse's character was originally supposed to die halfway through season one in a tragic drug deal gone horribly wrong. The reasoning behind this decision was that Jesse served his purpose "in a meat-and-potatoes, logistical sense. The character would give Walt his entrée into the business" before meeting his demise. However, this was eventually done away with as the story progressed beyond Gilligan's early scripts.<a href="#cite_note-10th-anniversary-185">[185]</a> The writers also opened up on their collaborative process and how their form of <a href="/wiki/Storytelling" title="Storytelling">storytelling</a> evolved with the show. According to writer George Mastras, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">Screen time was precious, and infusing every moment with the emotion [was the point], not just forming the pieces of the puzzle to tell the story, which is hard enough. If you're going to take five seconds of screen time, you'd better damn well be sure that there's an emotion there. It may be very, very subtle, but trust the audiences to pick up on that, because audiences do.<a href="#cite_note-10th-anniversary-185">[185]</a></blockquote> The development of certain characters posed challenges. Skyler became unsympathetic to some viewers in earlier seasons as she was often presented as an obstacle to Walt's ultimate agenda. The writers struggled to change the dynamic and realized that "the only way people were going to like Skyler was if she started going along with what Walt was doing". It was a tricky shift to alter on screen; the writers did not want to betray her character. This led them to justify the change by using her past job as a <a href="/wiki/Bookkeeper" class="mw-redirect" title="Bookkeeper">bookkeeper</a> to segue into her helping Walt <a href="/wiki/Money_laundering" title="Money laundering">launder his money</a>. Breaking the individual episodes was another form of problem-solving for the writers. They stressed the importance of not letting the "master plan" stop them from staying true to the world they created. There came a point where tracking the characters on a moment-by-moment basis proved to be more useful rather than the general direction of the story. Gould said they would always start with the last thought in a character's head. "Where's Jesse's head at? That was always the prelude to the breakthrough moment, because when you said that, it's usually because we had gotten attached to some big plan or some big set-piece that we thought had to be there, but the characters didn't want to do what we wanted them to do."<a href="#cite_note-10th-anniversary-185">[185]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Audience_response_to_Skyler">Audience response to Skyler</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Breaking_Bad&action=edit&section=33" title="Edit section: Audience response to Skyler">edit</a>]</div> Particular backlash was directed towards the character of <a href="/wiki/Skyler_White" title="Skyler White">Skyler White</a>. It has sparked an ongoing dialog about a number of topics, including society's attitude towards women, feminism, sexism, and double standards.<a href="#cite_note-186">[186]</a><a href="#cite_note-187">[187]</a> In August 2013 (while Breaking Bad was in its original run) <a href="/wiki/Anna_Gunn" title="Anna Gunn">Anna Gunn</a> published an op-ed in <a href="/wiki/The_New_York_Times" title="The New York Times">The New York Times</a> titled "I Have a Character Issue" in which she discussed her experience playing Skyler, with particular focus on the vitriol that audience members directed towards her character. She compared Skyler to similar television wives who seemed to inspire venom from audience members that their respective husbands did not, in particular <a href="/wiki/Carmela_Soprano" title="Carmela Soprano">Carmela Soprano</a> from <a href="/wiki/The_Sopranos" title="The Sopranos">The Sopranos</a> and <a href="/wiki/Betty_Draper" title="Betty Draper">Betty Draper</a> from <a href="/wiki/Mad_Men" title="Mad Men">Mad Men</a>. In Gunn's words, "Vince Gilligan, the creator of Breaking Bad, wanted Skyler to be a woman with a backbone of steel who would stand up to whatever came her way, who wouldn't just collapse in the corner or wring her hands in despair. He and the show's writers made Skyler multilayered and, in her own way, morally compromised. But at the end of the day, she hasn't been judged by the same set of standards as Walter".<a href="#cite_note-188">[188]</a> In a 2018 cast reunion, Aaron Paul commented "Why did our audience not sympathize with this poor woman? I really felt for Anna, because she's just such a beautiful human inside and out, and she played Skyler in such a fierce way, and people just dragged her character the most."<a href="#cite_note-EW-reunion-189">[189]</a> Vince Gilligan has defended both Skyler and Anna Gunn, saying at the same 2018 reunion "I figured Walt would be the one that'd be hard for people to sympathize with. Suddenly, lo and behold, we're hearing this animus toward Skyler White. To this day, it confounds me. Anna Gunn gave such a brilliant performance. We never tried for sympathy or lack of sympathy, we let the chips fall where they may. I would change that if I had a magic wand."<a href="#cite_note-EW-reunion-189">[189]</a> He later buttressed these sentiments in a 2022 interview, adding "I realize in hindsight that the show was rigged in the sense that the storytelling was solely through Walt's eyes, even in scenes he wasn't present for. Even Gus, his archenemy, didn't suffer the animosity Skyler received. It's a weird thing. I'm still thinking about it all these years later."<a href="#cite_note-190">[190]</a> Bryan Cranston has also defended Gunn and Skyler, saying "If you look at the elements that were involved in this—husband she finds out is lying, husband she finds out is doing something illegal, is doing something that puts her family in lethal danger, and she's being chastised—it's like, 'Wait a minute.' It baffled me from an objective standpoint."<a href="#cite_note-EW-reunion-189">[189]</a> In 2018, Gunn reflected on her experiences on the show, saying "This is not about me, Anna Gunn, and it's really not about Skyler. It's about the way people are connecting to him (Walter). It's also about the way that people still hold on to, perhaps, older ideas of what a woman or a wife should be or how she should act, or how she should behave. In the end, change isn't always comfortable and isn't always pleasant, but it's good that it was brought to people's attention and consciousness."<a href="#cite_note-EW-reunion-189">[189]</a> Nearly a decade after the show ended, Gunn remarked that she saw an improvement as to how the character of Skyler White was received, as well as in the state of television actresses and female characters in general. She said "when people come up to me, it’s incredibly different ... There’s still a long way to go, but we have made seismic changes since then. So people come up to me now and say, 'You were the linchpin for me. You were the conscience of the show. You were what pulled me into the show.' Or they say, 'The first time I watched it, I hated that character. But the second time I watched it, I realized, 'Oh my God, that poor woman.''"<a href="#cite_note-191">[191]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rian_Johnson's_experience_on_the_show">Rian Johnson's experience on the show</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Breaking_Bad&action=edit&section=34" title="Edit section: Rian Johnson's experience on the show">edit</a>]</div> Director <a href="/wiki/Rian_Johnson" title="Rian Johnson">Rian Johnson</a> worked on three episodes ("<a href="/wiki/Fly_(Breaking_Bad)" title="Fly (Breaking Bad)">Fly</a>", "<a href="/wiki/Fifty-One" title="Fifty-One">Fifty-One</a>" and "<a href="/wiki/Ozymandias_(Breaking_Bad)" title="Ozymandias (Breaking Bad)">Ozymandias</a>") and, in an interview with <a href="/wiki/IGN" title="IGN">IGN</a>, shared his memories from behind the camera. He shed some light on the process including the fact that he sat through "tone meetings" with Gilligan. The two of them talked about every dramatic beat in a script, the distinct visual look of the show, and how the tonal shift of each scene had to feel natural while serving the main storyline of the particular episode. Johnson also revealed that he learned so much about working with actors because of his directing of Cranston and Paul, describing the experience as a "free masterclass".<a href="#cite_note-ign-anniversary-192">[192]</a> When asked about the show's lasting legacy, Johnson offered up his thoughts, <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">I think the seriousness and depth with which it took its characters is the thing that really makes it stand apart for me. And that's where the power of it comes from. Obviously, starting with Walter White, there's just very few stories that are told on that scale, that have a character who is that deeply considered at the center of it. And I've heard people describe it as <a href="/wiki/Shakespearean" class="mw-redirect" title="Shakespearean">Shakespearean</a>, and I know that word gets tossed around a lot, but I think in this case it really does apply. And that speaks, not so much to the fact that he goes to a dark place, but the fact that his entire journey is so deeply resonant, because it's so deeply considered.<a href="#cite_note-ign-anniversary-192">[192]</a></blockquote> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Franchise">Franchise</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Breaking_Bad&action=edit&section=35" title="Edit section: Franchise">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Breaking_Bad_(franchise)" title="Breaking Bad (franchise)">Breaking Bad (franchise)</a></div> Breaking Bad's success caused numerous spin-offs and a media franchise.
