I liked the ending of breaking bad, thought it was one of the more satisfying endings to a show. Granted, it doesn't come close to something like The Shield in terms of impact but it rounded the story off quite nicely.

Thought the best season was the second season.
I wanted the show to end with a Hank-Walt arc but instead they closed that off rather early, and staged a bunch of implausible pulp fiction involving the season's underwhelming antagonists.
The seasons antagonists were just a prop and in effect the conclusion to the Hank-Walt arc was the beginning of the end, it just so happens that the end was stretched out for a couple of episodes.
