Vince Gilligan's AMC drama about a chemistry teacher turned methamphetamine kingpin ran for five seasons (62 episodes) from 2008 to 2013 and built from cult favourite to the most-watched cable drama in television history, setting a Guinness World Record for highest-rated TV series in 2014 with a Metacritic score of 99/100. Bryan Cranston's transformation of Walter White into "the danger" defined a generation of antihero storytelling and demonstrated that slow-burn character arcs could sustain mass audiences across years.
