For many, Breaking Bad is one of the best series ever. Minor errors or logical gaps are hardly noticeable. However, the series creator Vince Gilligan himself has addressed a problem that still haunted years after the end and that he would correct in retrospect.
Breaking Bad creator thinks Jesse’s teeth are way too perfect
Vince Gilligan revealed to Digital Spy that the Teeth of Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) look far too good for the course of the plot:
I’m really sorry that Jesse’s teeth were so perfect. Aaron Paul’s teeth are so perfect, rather – Jesse Pinkman, the character, would get beat up like hell every week. And then he smoked a lot of meth, which is hard on the teeth!
Gilligan would like to change this Breaking Bad detail and a look at a scene from the series proves it:

Otherwise, he is satisfied with the most important story developments in retrospect:
Little details like that… If I stop to think about it, I would change them. I say to myself, ‘I wish we had done that right.’ But in terms of broad strokes of the story, in terms of ‘Should this character have been killed off?’ or ‘Would this character have survived?’ or whatever… nothing like that keeps me awake at nightThank God.
Breaking Bad ended in the fall of 2013. That was 11 years ago. We hope Vince Gilligan can get over this inappropriate detail. The fans will surely forgive him.
