In the first episode of the show, Walter gets his diagnosis: terminal lung cancer. He's got two years, reckons his doctor.
In the first episode of the fifth season, which producers made known was the last season, we see Walter celebrating his second birthday post-diagnosis.
Add everyone connected with the show saying in interviews that Walt can't ever walk away from his life of crime and the show can only end with his death, the return of his cancer half-way through the final season, and the character openly stating to another character in the penultimate episode that one day soon he was going to walk in and find Walt dead...
Is "The King is Dead" really a spoiler?
(Especially when the line seems to be used symbolically, in a design focused on Walt's rapidly crumbling meth empire?)
