I wanted a little more. Decent enough. No single finally could do the whole series justice though. I guess I was fine with Skyler’s ending. Just sitting there and the mournful look on her face in her last scene seemingly wondering how she could hate this man and how she could love this man at the same time.
Tod’s death was epic enough. A little bit of gratification for Jesse — who escapes into the unknown.
Notice how Uncle Jack died in mid sentence just like Hank did?
Everybody died as they lived. The Nazi’s violently, Todd death, bloodless, seems somehow ritualistic. Lydia’s death by ricine poisoning from an hidden hand, much like she lived — secretly pulling on the doll strings she could reach.
Finally, Walter. Walter died as he lived — a victim on circumstance to the very end.
Look at it this way.
Nobody was having trouble parallel parking their car and the screen didn’t go black.

Excellent catch. :)
Todds death, bloodless, seems somehow ritualistic.
The only thing that could have improved it is if Jesse had growled "This *IS* personal" in response to Todd's cavalier "Nothing personal" when killing Andrea.
That captures my feelings about it perfectly. It was well done, but... yeah, just a little anti-climatic. They could have maybe made it a 2-hour and added a little more tension and drama.
Except that Jack was trying to bargain for his life, something Hank refused to do.

You’re right...and a heck of a lot more insightful on this show than I am!
