Betsy Brandt insists that the Breaking Bad finale night is “really good.”
Could it be so “Bad” that it’s good?
Brandt plays the oddball wife of Hank Schrader (Dean Norris), the DEA agent who sadly was shot and killed by Uncle Jack after the desert gunbattle two episodes ago.
The Breaking Bad final episode, “Felina” (an anagram for finale), episode 62 of the five-season AMC series run, airs this Sunday night at 9 pm eastern.
The formerly little known stars of Breaking Bad are all doing well thanks to the acclaimed drama’s success. As we previously reported , Brandt will co-star opposite Michael J. Fox in his new NBC comedy series.
Brandt responded in this way to Entertainment Weekly about the Breaking Bad finale when asked about how many boxes of tissues viewers will need as the show concludes:
“I think you’re going to need a lot. Regardless of how it ends — and the ending is good, it’s really good — [but] one of the things I’m most proud of on this show is the story and how much everyone has grown to love these characters. My character isn’t the easiest person to love. And listen, there are people that don’t love her, but there are so many people who do and I love them all. My ending would probably be completely Pollyanna so it’s good I don’t write the show because I want them all to win. I want them all to survive and win.”
She added that the hardest scene for her to film of the final season was when she told Walter White (Bryan Cranston) he should kill himself.
As you would expect, she would not give away any spoilers about her last scene in the finale.
Over the summer, Aaron Paul (Jesse Pinkman) said that fans will sh*t their pants in how the series concludes. Showrunner Vince Gilligan previously promised viewers that they will be satisfied with how the final episodes unfold and how the storylines resolve themselves.
