With only 3 episodes left in the riveting AMC drama "Breaking Bad", not only is the anticipation building for what will surely be an epic series finale, but we are also faced with the looming reality that the show will soon be over, and Walter White can no longer break bad.
By the way, when I say epic, I mean it in it's most literal form. I'm not defining it ironically, like when you hear people exaggerating their meals. "Oh man, these cheese fries are epic, bro", or something to that effect. This show is ingenious, and has been cleverly running towards a monumental climatic finale, that when historians analyze the impact of TV on 21st century Americans, will surely be up there in the top 3 moments of all time with the Bubb Rubb, Lil Sis news segment, and that time Janet Jackson whipped out her titty.

And the whistles go Whoop whoop |
What am I going to do with no more Breaking Bad? I guess I could just tune into TLC, for their latest series, "Doomsday Pawn Shop Cake Wars", but why would I do that, when I can just dunk my head into a pot of boiling water? By the way, they really should look into changing the name of that channel.

That's more like it.

There has already been rumors about a spinoff that would revolve around Walt's shyster attorney, Saul Goodman. I'd watch that. I'd watch anything derived from this series, as long as the same writers were involved. I wouldn't mind watching a show simply called, "Todd".
Coming to AMC this winter: The story of the simple-minded, slow witted country boy, who rose to become the biggest meth dealer in all of Albuquerque, New Mexico. From the same writers that brought you "Breaking Bad". Autistic Matt Damon stars in

Assuming Jesse survives, I'd watch a show about him going good.
Coming soon to AMC: Traumatized from his years as a drug pusher for the infamous Walter White, Jesse Pinkman hits the streets and recruits a troubled meth dealer, to assist him with various community service jobs. Jesse Pinkman and Skinny Pete star in...
Going Good
Helping save the environment by recycling and planting trees.
Clearly these sequels wouldn't be able to hold a candle to Breaking Bad, but that's really an unfair comparison to make to any show. I'm not sure if it's the writing or structure of the show, or the brilliant acting. It's probably a combination of both, but Walter White has become the greatest TV character of all time.
He's the man
He's the mad scientist
He's the one who knocks
He's Heisenberg
