Hi there!!
I watched this series a long time ago but it's still the best one till date. It has 5 seasons with 63 episodes in total , of 45 min. each. This series is one of the highest rated series with an IMDb rating of 9.4 and is now available on Netflix platform.
This series is so well directed and it's cinematography is so great that it will provoke you to watch further.
So before moving forward here is some character intro : the main protagonist Walter white, he is a school teacher who teaches chemistry. His wife Skyler white . There son Walter jr. . Then there is Skyler's sister Marie and his husband hank who works in DEA. so this is the small Walter family.
So this series starts with a normal pace where you are shown the typical life of all family members first. Then later Walter while teaching faints and is later diagnosed with lungs cancer. So every one in his family gets worried and his wife starts arranging the best medical facility for his husband but the advance treatment comes with an advance costing as well and being a typical middle class they can't afford .
Walter being an ambitious person even refuses to take his friends money for the treatment and tries to earn by himself
He one day goes into a mission with his brother in law hank where he encounter his old student and get to know about the loads of money people are making by selling methamphetamine. He just wanted to leave a handsome amount of money for the future of his family befor he is sccumed to cancer.
So one day he went by his student and as knowing about his habits wants to become a partner where in this business he will be the cook and jessy his student will handel the distribution. With his top notch skills where people are making 75% pure drugs, he with his expertise is able to take this upto 95% of the pureness.
So he tells jessy to buy a van in which they can cook . Later they make a lot amount of meth but now facing a problem with distribution. So jessy arranges a meeting which ultimately lands badly and 2 of people get killed.
Hanks started investigating this case and the case of blue meth. It's ironical that Walter is a meth cook and his brother in law works for DEA. So it's great to watch how Walter hides everything from him and lay low.
Now comes again the same problem with the distribution so jessy again goes to a buyer but this also ends badly and tuco( the buyer ) takes all his meth so here comes the most badass scene where Walter aka heisenberg goes to deal with this and come out with a partnership. But later this also fails and now they are again facing the same problem so now here we are introduced to Saul Goodman(yes you are right , Saul from better call Saul). He arranges him with a professional dealer and ultimately he lands up making a deal with him and now somehow they are stable.
During this all , in background Walters life and jessys life is depicted so greatly all the family prob. They are facing alongside with the distribution and how they handel all of them is the best to watch . This also teaches you to be strong in your low days.
The professional dealer here is gus fring and he is very suspicious man. Then later in this series his identity is revealed and his back story is shown.
With this when Walter come to know that he is best in this game he started to make a lot of meth and want his own meth empire. And because of this behavior he ultimately falls down and ends up getting caught by the police .
During all this in background Skyler knows about his meth business on the other hand some very bad happens to his family as one dies. Watch this series to find who among his member dies and that is the most badass scene in entire history of web series the name of the episode is ozymandias.
Emotion is one of the most important reason of the success of this series.
So just go and watch this series as this is highly recommended series .
So this is vivek , singning off.
