After watching all he's done on Breaking Bad, are you still a fan of Walter White? Are you still cheering him on? Yes? Creator Vince Gilligan thinks that will change.

"If you watch enough of these episodes, you realize eventually that Walt was a good man, but this thing he’s chosen to do is changing him," Gilligan told The New York Times this week. "He becomes harder and harder to root for.”

Saying the Emmy-winning series was "never intended to be an open-ended show," Gilligan is also steadfast in his plans to conclude it after season five, ratings and critical acclaim be damned.

Will Walter live to see the final credits?

"I can’t imagine him not dying," Gilligan teases. "Although it may not be from lung cancer.”
