Is all of the new series on Netflix yet?
Yes it’s all been out for a few weeks. Absolute masterpiece in my opinion.
One of the Netflix shows I havent watched. Worth a watch?
If you watched and enjoyed breaking bad definitely.Quote:

Few people have said it's good though.
It's definitely worth it.
It’s ridiculously slow and nothing happens but couldn’t stop watching it.
First 2 seasons are slow and I actually stopped watching but went back to it after mate said to stick with it. I binge watched the last 4 seasons in just over a week, gets really good
You can’t say that nothing happens, especially if you’ve watched past the first series.Quote:

1 to 3 we’re pretty mundane, 4 and 5 are Do ableQuote:

I found both Breaking Bad and this very tedious. Didn’t get very far with either.
The first three series were slow paced but still really enjoyable. Series 4 through to 6 were absolutely outstanding and as good as The Sopranos.
.So cleverly acted and brilliantly written
IMO in my opinion its better than breaking bad...which now and again had side characters yacking for a 5-6minute monolgue. the wife for example
yeah..you love car crashes and bombs going off yeah?Quote:

IMHO Breaking Bad was the best TV I have ever watched. BCS a close 2nd.
The Wire and The Sheld were also excellent .
I thought the first three series of BCS were not at the same level as BB but the last three series were better than BB
Overall BCS edged BB for me
In my opinion, there are four truly great television series. By this I mean an on-going story, not the sort of thing where you have a different story each episode. The four are: Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Better Call Saul, and The Sopranos.
BB and GoT start fast, and they keep going at pace right to the end. BCS and TS start slow, and build to a crescendo.
Because of that difference in pacing, they may seem inferior, but they are probably the better series overall, because their pace allows so much detail and back-story to emerge. So Saul is slow, but much more detailed. The rise and fall of a gifted but deeply flawed individual.
I heartily recommend anyone who has not seen these four series, to try to watch them. They are all marvellous television.
Completely agree with three but I haven’t seen GoT next on my list maybe.
I know a lot of people put the wire up with those 4 but haven’t got round to that.
I’d also agree the last 3 seasons of BCS are the best (I’d say it’s all great mind) but there is an episode early on about Mike’s son which I’d put up there with all the BB and BCS episodes.
Matching the Sopranos is some feat, still not finished the Sopranos as C4 lost the rights to Sky.Quote:

I saw some clips of Walt Jr on twitter or something a few days ago, and could not remember him as a character at all.Quote:

The cocky ones perhaps don’t have life so easy after all. The acting is outstanding particularly Rhea Seehorn as Kim Wexler. It treats you like an adult. Different storylines running alongside each other effortlessly produced and directed. Great cinematography.Quote:

I’d say The Wire is the best series I’ve ever seen. Just pips The Sopranos for me.Quote:

Gomorrah
I'm hearing some good stuff about 'Severance'. Anyone seen it?
I'd rate Breaking Bad as possibly the best series ever (I also loved Life on Mars and Ashes to Ashes from the UK and The Bridge and The Killing from Scandinavia about as much). While I wouldn't rate Better Call Saul quite as highly it's still superb. Bob Odenkirk is a great actor. His film Nobody is well worth a watch. Very quirky.
We finished BCS when the last episode was released and are now rewatching BB.
Nothing happens ?!! SPOILER ALERT - What about when Howard was unexpectedly shot in the head by Lalo in front of Kim and Jimmy for just talking out of turn. Excellent series - better than breaking bad.Quote:
