In Memoriam: Mike Ehrmantraut, ‘Breaking Bad’

When you're in the business of tying up loose ends for drug bosses like Mike Ehrmantraut on 'Breaking Bad,' then you know that it's only a matter of time before your own number is up. We loved Mike's no-nonsense, grumbly grandpa attitude and his clever, but always simple, approach to solving problems. But he wasn't all business -- Mike had some humanity, whether it was his love for his granddaughter or his hesitation in killing Lydia to spare her daughter's grief. Mike was hard-nosed, sure, but he had a soft heart, and his death at the hands of the prideful Walter White was one of this year's more upsetting moments. Mike went out with dignity, though, telling Walt to "f--- off" so he could die in peace by the lake.
