Breaking Bad on AMC

[TheAristocrat 1,975]

I was hooked sometime during the first episode.

When did it hook you guys?

Opening scene of the premier.

What you're describing sounds more like The Wire. That took about five or six episodes before I really got into it (although on the second and third viewings, it was awesome right from the beginning).

[bentley 3,218]

I got hooked a bit when Walt figured out Crazy 8 was going to stab him and for real when the bath tub fell through the floor. That was the moment where I realized it was going to be deeper than your average crime show.

I have never watched before yesterday. My wife convinced me to give it a try.  Got through the first three episodes and wasn't impressed.  Everyone says it gets better......right now its like a bad comedy of errors and misunderstandings....like a Threes Company episode on meth.

When did it hook you guys?  SO many people telling me to hang it there, so I will, but wondering when its gonna click for me.

 

I would quit.  you're probably not going to like it when they switch out Hank for Don Knotts in season 4.

Yea.

Some of the best lines were in S5.

Tread lightly 

I did it for me. I liked it. I was good at it. And I was really--- I was alive.

[avoiding injuries 3,255]

Watching the marathon for the past couple of hours. Still the best.

 people with shorter attention spans find BB slow like The Wire and they find The Wire unwatchable.

"I f##ked Ted" just happened.

If 1.6 when we meet Tuco doesn't hook you, this show may not be your cup of tea.

This.  The first five episodes are all character building.  1.6 is when things really pick up.  If you don't like it by the end of this episode, it is okay to give up on it.  

[The General 24,542]

Loving they are playing "Passages Malibu" drug rehabilitation commercials during the marathon

[Peyton Marino 4,780]

Tight! tighttight!

Riverdance!

The look on Hank's face when he realizes the call was a hoax is priceless

They still advertising Low Winter Sun?

I still say the Twins were the worst part of this show.

If that one Bobsey twin had put a cap on Hank, the endgame would have definitely been different.

Still think the vague German consortium threat was the worst, even though it bridged us through to a great endgame.

It also brought us Franch dressing.

Marie still sucks, no matter how many times you watch the show. Sitting on a couch between her and Flynn is what I would imagine hell is like.

The show was at its worst after Gus died. Todd, his cousin etc. I've watched the series a few times now and more and more I wish they ended it after Gus died.

When these marathons come on I record them and skip through all commercials and scenes with just Marie, Skylar and Flynn

Esposito and Banks are so ridiculously skilled at their craft that they can convey so much even when they are sitting perfectly still. 

[Raider Nation 5,597]

Ted going from a confident, dashing business-owner to a pathetic, lovelorn, destitute wretch in the blink of an eye was a bit of a stretch.

[Raider Nation 5,597]

You guys can take the next hour off. "Fly" is coming up next. Just sit in your house with the TV off and stare at the wall, and you've seen that episode.

Marie: Get some sleep, Hank. Those RVs aren't going anywhere.

Hank: They're recreational vehicles, Marie.  That's what they do.

Best speech in the entire series.   The Half Measure speech.

what did Flynn have for breakfast today?

[wikkidpissah 18,511]

DVRless, watching the final ep of Hollow Crown on PBS (fanTAStic, btw - Cumberbatch doing his best raptor impression as Richard III), hopping over to BB even tho there's no commercials so i dont miss cool scenes, i was struck how much fam #### was in that show and how absolutely little i ever cared one little bit about the fam #### in that show.

That episode was incredible.

[Leeroy Jenkins 2,846]

Why did Hank sit in the parking lot for a minute?  He could have just left after he hung up with Gus and would have been fine.

The bad guys always get caught. Gus died ending would have been happier but the ending we got was more appropriate.

Poor Gale. The guy just wanted to listen to show tunes and cook some clean meth.

I wonder if they reset that counter or it turned over. No way that page has only had 700 visitors in all these years.

[Ghost Rider 6,295]

I guess it's all a matter of when Saul plugged it back in, since he said he was gonna unplug after Walter got pissy about the dirty, deep and damp comment. 

[Homer J Simpson 8,446]

Been watching from the start of this marathon. Stupid sleep keeps interrupting though.
