70. I'm bummed out it is over, but it was an excellent finish.

I've hated to fall in love with shows every since the heartbreak of Deadwood's cancellation, so I'm glad I saw something through to the end and it was perfect.

I knew that Walt would somehow free Jesse. It was like a trip down into the underworld of hell to free the lost soul, and trade your own life for the redemption of another.

I'm glad they left it there and not dragged out with sappy resolutions of other story-lines.
