Re: Protags: Likable? Relatable? Empathetic? Or is intriguing enough?
Not that I absolutely raved about and loved the show Breaking Bad; we binge-watched all seasons last year, some 11 years after the first episode. Someone performed a lot of research for that show; I knew nothing of the meth world and received something of a rapid education through watching the show. It was compelling to see how the twists and turns came, but I could have left off watching it and come back later, too.
Even so, I contend the writers of “Breaking Bad” did put Walter up against his wall. For him, it was all about leaving behind enough money on which his wife and children could live comfortably after his death. He simply became prideful and greedy, two of the deadliest of the seven sins. He may have become guilty of other sins, too.
