Ann Coulter, a conservative columnist who has been known to advocate for more guns, offered her takeaway from the Breaking Bad finale.
PBS personality Charlie Rose -- who made a surprise cameo in the show's penultimate episode -- admitted in an interview that he binged-watched five seasons in about two weekends in order to prepare for the role. The episode's director Peter Gould later told THR that Rose's scene was the only one not shot in New Mexico.
Meanwhile, Rose's CBS This Morning co-host, Gayle King, shared a photo of the two of them enjoying the final episode together and joking about it being their first "date."

Warren Buffett, who has only tweeted four times since creating his Twitter account on May 2, took to social media to write, "Not even the Oracle knows what will happen tonight. #waltsuccessor." Attached was a photo of the billionaire business magnate sporting a Walter White-like goatee and hat that read "honorary Heisenberg," a nod to the character's dark alter ego.
Prolific novelist Joyce Carol Oates compared Walter White (Bryan Cranston) to classic American literary heroes like Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn and F. Scott Fitzgerald's Jay Gatsby. Oates also expressed surprise that an expected storyline, reminiscent of John Boyne's book The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, never materialized.
