Vince Gilligan - "I'm really sorry Jesse's teeth were so perfect"

Breaking Bad creator, Vince Gilligan, says despite the show's huge success, there is one small thing he would like to change about the series.

The award-winning show may have come to an end in 2013 but Gilligan is still thinking about that one teeny-weeny detail he wishes he had thought of at the beginning. 

Speaking with Digital Spy, the 51-year-old Emmy-winning showrunner said: "I’m really sorry Jesse’s teeth were so perfect. Aaron Paul’s teeth are so perfect, rather – Jesse Pinkman, the character, would get the living hell beaten out of him every week.

"And then he smoked a lot of meth, which is rough on your teeth! Little details like that... If I stopped to think about it, I would change them. I would say to myself, ‘I wish we’d gotten that right."

Look at those perfect gnashers

Gilligan also revealed that he's open to revisiting Jesse Pinkman in future, possibly in the 'present-day' scenes on Breaking Bad spin-off Better Call Saul.
