Returns July 15 on AMC
“I won,” said Walter White (Bryan Cranston) at the end of Season 4, after he killed his drug-lord boss/nemesis, completing his rise from chemistry teacher to crystal-meth kingpin. But what has he lost? Breaking Bad, returning for its final season, is a thriller about the capacity for evil. White rationalized his turn to drug-making after a cancer diagnosis as a means of providing for his family. With White cancer-free and victorious, the show’s final question may be whether he can break good again or if he is simply broken.
