Breaking Bad

[acworthhorn]

Anybody watching this yet? It's on AMC, Sunday nights. I think the dad from "Malcomn in the Middle" has done some good acting in this and the writing is pretty good. Some of the scenes are the best I've seen on TV.

I have. Two thumbs up from me. Wasn't sold after the first episode, thought it was just a weeds rip off. But it's a lot darker and has gotten better every week.

Great new show, very happy with this one.

Great acting and writing.

Brutal stuff though.

I've watched the first two. Great story idea, but I'm not sure how much I like it. The main character is awesome. The drug dealer is either a lousy actor or badly miscast, which is what's bringing the show down for me.

I'm never one to watch shows like this, but this one has kept me engaged fairly well. Seems like a pretty solid show, esp for it being on reg. cable.

Reminds me of Rescue Me, when Rescue Me was good. I really liked last night's episode.

i think the drug dealer is acting really well, he just has a very unlikeable character to play. The fact that we all hate him is a pretty good testimony to his acting.

I don't know how much i like the show so far. It's interesting, but i'm not all that into it.

I am really liking it. I will go on record as not enjoying the drug culture as a form of entertainment. just not my thing.

But there's something about the main character that I like. And last night had some pretty funny stuff. In a dark way.

I think AMC is showing the first 3 episodes tonight.

 

[Beau Vine]

Didn't like the most recent episode, and almost turned it off. Sllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooow.

I'm giving up on it if the next episode isn't better.

 

[Mr.Wizard]

I dug the last episode, great writing and acting.

Digging this one.

Speaking of dark humor, I really enjoyed the scene where the bath tub dissolves and the dissolved body parts and guts come through the second story floor. What a clean-up nightmare.

this show gets better and better, the drug dealer is a creep and a half, and they ain't gonna have it be a promoter of the drug culture, looks like it's gonna be pretty realistic and dark, the biker/pirates stalking mr drug dealer were pretty cool. it's pretty well written, the last one was pretty good not much action but good character develoment, Jessie the drug dealer is not a total creep. I like the fact that comcast has it on on demand. That **** with the *******'s BMW was excellent.
