The AMC series -- about a chemistry teacher-turned-drug lord who rides powerful methamphetamine called "Blue" to wealth and pain -- concluded its triumphant run last year as one of the most-lauded TV series of all time: the story of "Mr. Chips turning into Scarface," as creator Vince Gilligan liked to describe it. On Monday, the show received one more set of honors: a slew of nods at the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards, including the Emmy for outstanding drama series.
The show won six Emmys total, second only to "Sherlock: His Last Vow's" seven among all programs ..."
The ending wasn't completely satisfactory. Jesse drove away but with no ID and no money. What happens when he gets tired or hungry or runs out of gas? Also, what happened to the $80 million the skinheads stole from Walter? Won't various government agencies want to interview Mrs. White?
Still, thanks to AMC and Vince Gilligan for a satisfying five year run.
