Thank you so much

I just wanted to express my thanks to the creator of the show, Vince Gilligan, and the entire team who made it possible for me and my family to enjoy Breaking Bad on television every week.
For me, Breaking Bad is more than just a show. You see, I never really had a good relationship with my parents, but the last 2 years it’s been getting out of control. About 70% of the communication in the house was made up of fighting and yelling, and my parents would get mad at me and my little brother for little to no reason. Dinner time has been very quiet for the past couple of months. It even got so far out of hand that my dad gave me two suitcases to pack, and the plan was for me to go and live at a friends’ house.
But then something happened that changed all of that. I have been following BB for about a year now, and I’ve been urging my mother to watch it too, since one of the few things I have in common with my mother is our love for fiction and good movies/series/books. It aired in the Netherlands (where I live) last month, and she finally started watching it with me and my little brother. She fell in love with the show and bought the season 2 DVD box, which she watched in its entirety yesterday. Now finally we talk again, you guessed it, about Breaking Bad! Dinner isn’t awkward anymore, and even my dad (who normally hates all the TV shows me or my mom watch) joins in on the conversations because he has watched some of the season 2 episodes with us. My dad also suffered from cancer, so he can relate to Walt on another level entirely, which adds a nice, personal, perspective to our conversations. This has paved to way to other ways of communicating, and now the mood in the house is very light. We talk normally to each other again and me and my brother are allowed much more freedom.

So you see Mr. Gilligan, to me Breaking Bad is much more than just an awesome TV show. To me it’s the show that reunited my family!
