I think that Breaking Bad's finale was so good because it wasn't trying to tie up a bunch of loose ends, it was just revenge for them stealing his money. On top of that, Walter finally dies from a bullet(not from the cancer he has been worried about) and dies in a meth lab, where he felt like he was home. He said it himself. He spent his whole life in a rut and he finally felt alive. It was the only thing he was good at. He was alive when he was cooking. He lived and died with the meth lab. Wasn't the best episode of the show but I thought it was the best ending to a show I have seen. The wire had a great ending too. You can call sopranos ending genius as much as you want but to me, it was just lazy writing
