Breaking Bad is a masterpiece of the medium, a true work of art which deviates from conventional television norms on all levels. In doing so, it really shouldn't even be considered a "tv show" because it is a work of modern art. It's not meant to make anyone feel good (except for the dark comedy), but it shows the true profound and philosophical consequences of decisions and ramifications in a world where good people fall victim to the status quo and have nowhere to turn in desperate situations.

By purging oneself through Walter White's journey, one can realize everything they missed out on by so and so choosing to take the wrong path in life. It reaffirms the moral decision to choose the good path, no matter how boring and mundane it may seem so that one does never become a Walter White or his associates. But in vicariously living through them, once receives reaffirmation, that although life can suck at times, and throw you a curveball that may make you want to "break bad", staying the course and doing the right thing, is probably the best bet, no matter how much money the alternate path can make someone.
