Breaking Bad!

[IanG]

Read about the hype. Got a copy. Just finished season 1.

I'll be honest, I can take it or leave it. Probably going to stick it out but hooked after the first episode I was not.

We are watching the whole of BB for the second time. It really is that good! The camera work, the acting, the set design, the sound design, the music - well, everything really - is just better than anything I have ever seen before.

I agree that a lot of the camera work is first rate, as well as many other aspects.
One slight caveat: I personally thought the Peaky Blinders music was knockout.
Red Right Hand...

For people who haven't see it yet.
Netflix is free for first month. If you watch 2-3 episodes a day you'll have enough time to watch all series
Highly recommended !

I'm a big fan of BB, however one thing I have never been able to work out is why it never found a home on British TV. Channel 5 had the first season and mucked up marketing it to a British audience and since then it has been Netflix only.

Also, now when ever I see an old re-run of Malcom in the Middle I cant help thinking Hal has a Winniebago hidden away somewhere.

Luckily there is a spin off series on the way called "Better call Saul". It is all about Saul and the people he worked with before Walter White.

Oh that's interesting.Any idea when it might be in the UK?

We got Netflix a month or so ago (free for 6 months with Virgin). Just getting to the end of the first season of House of Cards. I didn't realise Breaking Bad was on there, so that'll be next I think.

@vvaannmmaann It is scheduled in the US for autumn and as it is on Netflix we should get it about the same time. There are rumours that the Pinkman character may make more than a fleeting appearance.

 

[vvaannmmaann]

And another thing I have discovered........
Salamander on BBC4. Check it out.

Looks interesting vvaannmmaann, dont know if I can sit through all those subtitles though. By the time I sit down to watch TV these days the sandman is already knocking on the door

Can you record it?

 

[Excel Expert]

Already programmed in ;-) Just got to hope my Sky+ hard drive doesnt fill up with all the other stuff I'm recording for a quieter period

Brilliant!, Can't wait for S3 now

 

[paul4uk]

Excellent, Kevin Spacey is one of my favorite actors. I can't see it being disappointing

 

[SuffolkDesigns]

yeah, he (or his character) get a lot better in S2, I try to watch 1 episode a day, but got through S2 in 3 days

 

[PalmerCreative]

Best season ever! Starts very slow but gets very good.

 

[amphis software]

just getting into BB on netflix after watching all of 24. so far I still think 24 is the best show ever but BB is growing on me now I'm into series 2.

[vvaannmmaann]

Caught up with True Detective last night.Not too sure about it at the moment.Hopefully episode two will see things get going.

 

[peterorl]

I went through all BB series and actually I am inconsolable what happened with W.W.

 

[kokospoko]

Like is ended, because i can watch it now ( i don't watch running series because i cant wait for them)

 

[pjperez]

If you've already finish the series I'd recommend this tribute video

Do NOT watch it if you haven't finished as there are spoilers!!!
