Breaking Bad premiered on January 20, 2008, aired 5 seasons, and concluded the story of Walter White with its finale episode “Felina” on September 29, 2013.
Over the course of five successful seasons, Breaking Bad told the story of Walter White, a simple chemistry teacher at a high school who got diagnosed with cancer on his 50th birthday and it changed his life as he knew it. He realizes that he might die and leave his pregnant wife, Skyler White, and his teenage son with cerebral palsy, Walter Jr., on their own with no one to take care of them.
This realization led Walter to go from being a simple chemistry teacher in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to selling meth, “breaking bad” as a simple, law-abiding family man.
