Best Breaking Bad Episodes

This is, by far, the greatest episode we will ever see in the history of television. This is the episode where all the things Walt had ever done, all the lies he told, finally crashed down on him.

While this led to an incredible ending where the world's best liar stopped lying to himself, this was the ending of Breaking Bad. This was an extremely cruel and twisted episode, but it was appropriately cruel and twisted.

What makes it satisfying at the same time is that we all know this had to happen. This series built up to Walt losing his entire family and eventually having nothing left, leaving him to finally face the truth in the finale.

While it broke our hearts to see Hank go, we all saw this coming. Hank had to die in order for Walt to see that his actions led to this. Hank had to die in order for Walt to receive the brutal consequences that he deserved.

It satisfied and broke our hearts. It was merciless in its wrath. But that's what made it oh so powerful.

The way Gus went out was not what I expected. This left me shocked. One of, if not the best Breaking Bad episode of all time.

Bryan Cranston is one of the best actors of all time.

The very ending of this episode left me speechless. I am amazed at how Walt's character has changed from the beginning until now.

Totally awesome and unexpected. Very sorry to see this consummate actor go, but a perfect exit for him.

The ending of that episode with Walt yelling and screaming like a maniac was so terrifying it just makes your hair turn white.

Bryan Cranston is the greatest actor ever.

The rising tension is just unbearable, and the ending is metaphorically the death of Walter White, leaving just his Heisenberg persona behind.

That ending is just the single most terrifying and discomforting scene I've ever watched.

That final scene with Jesse Pinkman and Walter White really got to me.

Walter: (slides gun over to Jesse) "Do it. You want this."
Jesse: "No, you say it! Say that you want this!"
Walter: "I want this."

Every time Jesse asked Walter to admit the truth, like in this scene, he had found a loophole to avoid answering. But when Walter knows that he is about to die no matter what happens, he is willing to admit the truth.

This episode was so filled with heart and emotion, a fitting end to the best TV show of all time.

Such a perfect ending! Walter setting things right with Jesse.

Perfect song to end also, "I Guess I Got What I Deserved," "The Special Love I Had for You, My Baby Blue."

Out of any episode I've seen, this one certainly resonates the most. The scene where Mike comes up behind the main cartel enforcer with razor wire is as terrifying as it is badass.

You feel as though Jesse is a catalyst for the audience. He's as caught off guard as we are.

The cartel attack scene was amazing. I loved to see Gus finally get his revenge.

This is also probably the only episode where Jesse isn't acting like a brat.

One of the best episodes, in my opinion. Hits even harder if you've seen BCS.

Perfect ending to a perfect season.

Full of awesome moments. Unforgettable ending when Walter says, "Run!"

Also, the ironic montage of Wendy at the opening is a great way to start such a dark show. This should be number one.

Never got so shocked by a TV show in my life as I did with this episode. Everything in it is just perfect.

When this amazing episode ended, I was counting hours for the next one!

I like the fact that Jesse and Walt's relationship took a steamy twist in this episode, but that isn't to credit this episode alone. There had been that subtle buildup throughout the show.

The actors' performances were mediocre, though. Needed more intensity.

This episode really gives characters room to self-reflect and delve into each other's repressed issues, something never really done to such a degree in this or any other show.

Not as emotional as Ozymandias or Felina, or as shocking as Face Off or Crawl Space, but I just love the dialogue between Jesse and Walt.

This is a great character-driven episode.

Walt's little chat with Flynn was damn heartbreaking. And the final seconds prepare you amazingly for Felina.

A brilliant piece of television, a perfect setup for the masterpiece that is Felina.

Though it isn't my favorite, it NEEDS to be higher. It has, by far in my opinion, the best cliffhanger. It had me shocked and angry about the reveal of how Walt gave Brock the ricin.

It was just reveal after reveal, and the speech Jesse gives when he's pointing the gun at Saul had me screaming. This needs to be in the top ten, with Felina being number one.

I loved how this episode ties together all the cold scenes from season two.

I cry every single time watching this episode. The ending and the whole Jesse's story with that little boy is so touching, man.

This is the episode where people finally began to take Jesse seriously.

That "pull at the heartstrings" episode.

The scene in the basement... Top 10 scene in the series' history.

Most underrated episode from the show. Jesus, guys, those last 10 minutes are just as intense as Ozymandias.

Really deserves the top three.

The heist scene is one of the best in the show, if not the single best.

My second favorite episode, great beginning and ending. You're damn right this one should be higher.
