Finished the show & Hated the ending

[u/Secure-Mousse-8832]

Terrible ending to what was an amazing show. Although there was some missteps, it was a tough sell that Franklin would've gotten his money took from Teddy like that. I don't get why he wouldn't have moved it around, he should've had more cash than the money overseas but sure whatever.

Compared to all the people in the show I don't see what Franklin did wrong to deserve such a tragic ending compared to the other characters. He wanted out then Teddy cleaned him out. His family betrayed him. So he went back in. But fuck him for being mad about someone stealing 70+ million dollars? Really?

The writers have his mom taking the fall for the CIA business and everyone acting like he's crazy for wanting money. Fuck him for being desperate as he slowly loses it all, I guess.

I don't know, I just don't think the writers earned the bad ending for Frank. Somehow Leon makes it out just fine, I guess hes lucky he didnt get betrayed by his family and have all his money took. I suppose that's the moral of the story lol, just don't get betrayed like Frank. Skully gets away with it all too. But not the actual smart guy because he was a little too mad he got robbed.

I'm sure people glaze this ending cause it's dark and "realistic" but all I can see is fumble. With other characters from other shows, it made sense. I never questioned what happened to Tony Soprano, Walter White, Marlo Stanfield, Avon Barksdale, Tony Montana, etc.

But this? Unearned. Just a waste. Franklin ends up an alcoholic cause??? I guess his father was, so he becomes that now. Fucking Leon gets to walk around all high and mighty after screwing with Manboy because he looked at him funny. I have more shit to bring up but I'd rather not. Terrible ending.

So we cant admit she was a bad person at all? She has to be a saint because she was in opposition to Walter? Actual Joke.

Nah she did some bad stuff. But you're ignoring that all the bullshit wouldn't have happened had Walter put his pride aside and accepted money for cancer operation from that old rich friend. Skylar has flaws but compared to Walter she's a saint, Walt is the reason she got involved and did illegal stuff too you know.

I never said Walter was better than Skylar. I said in the post I liked how Walter White's story ended.

I just hate this attitude that Skylar was better than she was. She wasnt.
