No one can beat Breaking Bad finale

The Boys S5, Stranger Things S5, Game of Thrones S8, Walking Dead S11

This is a two-panel satirical meme arguing that the Breaking Bad series finale is unmatched in quality compared to poorly received later/final seasons of other popular TV shows. The top panel shows a public swimming pool: a struggling half-submerged boy is labeled 'The Boys S5', a happy girl held above water by a woman is labeled 'Stranger Things S5', and the woman holding her is labeled 'Game of Thrones S8', ranking these three disappointing seasons from worst to least bad in the eyes of fans. The bottom panel shows a skeleton sitting on a chair fully submerged at the pool bottom, labeled 'Walking Dead S11', implying this final season was received far more negatively than all the others shown. The core joke is that all listed seasons are widely considered letdowns, and none of them come close to the universal acclaim of Breaking Bad's finale.

This meme was sourced from the Reddit:Meme subreddit via RSS feed. It uses the popular two-panel 'drowning child with underwater skeleton' meme template, a widely reused format for ranking things by varying levels of negative quality, to satirize divisive later seasons of mainstream American TV series. The post's original stated premise is that Breaking Bad's finale is so universally praised by audiences and critics that no other major TV show's poorly received final season can compare to its quality.
