9 TV Shows That Left Huge Unanswered Questions Behind

AMC's seminal drug drama Breaking Bad delighted fans by sending Walter White out in a blaze of Nazi-slaying glory, tying up his loose ends, and bringing the curtain down with a fitting blast of Badfinger's Baby Blue.

There's no room for speculation concerning Heisenberg ultimate fate, but the same cannot be said of his former partner Jesse Pinkman, who was last on the road to potential freedom after Walt liberated him from the hell of meth-making slavery.

Showrunner Vince Gilligan gave fans the best of both worlds. There was a definite conclusion for the protagonist and a healthy degree of ambiguity to Jesse's endgame, though in the case of the latter, this has only meant never-ending fan speculation.

Did Pinkman manage to evade the law and escape to a new, wholesome life elsewhere? It seems unlikely. A small army of police was deployed within the vicinity to hunt down Heisenberg, and Jesse's prints are all over that meth lab.

Jesse is likely facing a lengthy jail term for the shooting of Gale Boetticher, not to mention his key role in Walt's meth empire. Gilligan himself has hinted that the cops would more than likely catch up with him eventually, but what happens after that looks destined to remain unknown, unless Better Call Saul weighs in on the matter.
