Breaking Bad is not The Sopranos, but it will continue to be talked about for many years to come.

Turns out he may have inspired a few copycats, too, with this via VICE:

From finding the source materials online to developing the crystals themselves, Bob leads VICE through the step by step process of creating one of the most elusive and potent hallucinogens in the world. Bob escapes the classroom daily to work on his profitable hobby and explains why this drug is so sought after.
