For a lot of people, Breaking Bad's eventual acquisition of the title of "Best TV Show of all Time"' was unforeseen. At least in the first 3 seasons. Which is understandable, considering at first glance, Walter White's story almost always seems like an ordinary tale of a good man gone rogue. What very few unsuspecting viewers knew then, however, is that letting you form preconceptions, and leading you to believe you could see what's coming, was one of the many tricks Gilligan, the creator of the show, would pull to seize your unbridled loyalty.

1. In the pilot episode of Breaking Bad, when on the day after his birthday Walter first finds out he has cancer, he's told by the Doctor that he has only two years to live. Guess when Heisenberg dies? Yep, the day after his birthday, exactly two years later.

2. In season 2, Jesse's surprise breakfast in bed for Jane gets ruined, when she walks in on him cooking. He tells her she shouldn't be up, to which she replies with a cheeky "ever?". A few episodes down the line, we all know she ends up literally not waking up next to him, ever.

3. When Walter's daughter Holly is born, he takes up the responsibility of turning her on her side in case she vomits. If you've seen the show, you already know where this is going. Yes, that's exactly how he lets Jane die, by NOT turning her on her side when she's vomiting, after overdosing on Heroin.

4. Remember Crazy 8? The first person Walter ever murdered? Well, one of the details about Krazy 8 noted during his short-lived appearance onscreen, is that he loves his sandwiches without any crust. Guess who started cutting the crust off his sandwiches soon after? Our beloved Heisenberg.
