rewrite reflection task 2b breaking bad







Breaking Bad is an American crime drama television series created and produced by Vince Gilligan. The show originally aired on the AMC network for five seasons. It tells the story of Walter White, a struggling high school chemistry teacher diagnosed with lung cancer, and together with his former student Jesse Pinkman, turns to a life of crime, producing and selling crystallized methamphetamine to secure his family's financial future before he dies. The show's title is from a Southern colloquialism meaning to "raise hell". 
Walter's family consists of his wife Skyler and children, Walter, Jr. a.k.a. Flynn and Holly. The show also features Skyler's sister Marie Schrader, and her husband Hank, a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent. Walter hires lawyer Saul Goodman, who connects him with private investigator and fixer Mike Ehrmantraut and in turn Mike's employer, drug kingpin Gus Fring. The final season introduces the characters of Todd Alquis and Lydia Rodarte-Quayle.Breaking Bad is widely regarded as one of the greatest television series of all time. By the time the series finale aired, the series was among the most-watched cable shows on American television. The show received numerous awards, including sixteen Primetime Emmy Awards, eight Satellite Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, two Peabody Awards and a People's Choice Award. For his leading performance, Cranston won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series four times. In 2013, Breaking Bad entered the Guinness World Records as the highest rated show of all time. That's why I chose this series. My personal view is that this series deserve these awards because it reflects the real life masterly. It is the perfect example of an American family and crime world. I loved the content of this movie. I watched all seasons, and I am not regretful, so I strongly recommend it to you. 

   Walter White and Tony Soprano represent mirror-image takes on the problem of evil, damnation and free will. Walter is a man who deliberately abandons the light for the darkness while Tony is someone born and raised in darkness. This series gives this message to society.

    I really enjoyed your topic, because Breaking Bad is undoubtedly my favorite series. Your writing style is also nice, because you used an understandable language. In terms of grammatic structure of your writing, I could not say anything, since you used proper sentences and conjunctions. In my opinion, with the help of your task, anybody could learn lots of things about the series, and they may start watching this amazing series:)
