“You three are my heroes!” added another.

“That’s it, I’m watching Breaking Bad again,” one fan wrote.

Breaking Bad, which premiered in 2008 and wrapped up in 2013, is widely considered one of the best television shows of all time. Starring Bryan Cranston as Walter White and Aaron Paul as Jesse Pinkman, it received critical acclaim for its performances and storytelling.
