I can never tell if you are being serious or just like to say stuff to be contrary. Saul Goodman and Mike Ehrmantraut have carried the show for the last two seasons?
I've watched most of those shows listed by aliasad as well, some of them are great but none of them match BB as far as I'm concerned, the only other show which comes close is The Walking Dead first 4 seasons which is probably the best show of all time.
There - now I've said it, there can be no further debate. Run along now and behave yourself.
Walking Dead was brilliant for the first few seasons, but now it has taken predictability to a whole new level.
Every season starts with Rick and his gang peddling around before they encounter a bad group, and the force that cannot be destructed, also known as Rick Grimes, outsmarts them and beats the crap out of them before they find a place to settle before they encounter another bunch of bad guys who can't touch Rick.
Walking Dead has gone stale and it needs fresh ideas and new directions. This Negan guy seems interesting to me and they finished the last season on a real cliffhanger.
Seems like and I hope that Rick has finally met his match in Negan.
Overall, I think Breaking Bad just about edges Walking Dead so far, but I'd wait to see how Walking Dead finishes. Both however are inferior to Game of Thrones.
Yes, Saul and Mike have been standout characters for me in the last couple of seasons.
Skyler and his thief sister are as annoying as ever, while Hank is a likable character, the fact that he had Heisenberg right under his nose cooking blue meth for seasons and he had no clue about it until he was squatting on Heisenberg's toilet in Episode 8 of Season 5 even though he had many leads sums up his skill of deduction.
He might be many things, but putting two and two together isn't amongst his best strengths.
His brother-in-law, a highly qualified chemist, suddenly starts to act suspiciously and spends days away from home, keeps a second cell phone that he hides from other people, has a few chemistry equipment stolen from his school lab which were used to cook meth, starts to pile up cash all of a sudden, has links with a guy who is involved in the meth business (Hank saw Jessie hanging out with Combo, in the picture that he found in Combo's house), him and Skyler cook up this gambling story even though for 50 years of his life, Walter had no inclination towards gambling and suddenly he found out a magic formula.
On top of that, Walter's nervous body language every time Hank talks about the blue meth business and his suspicious interest in what's happening with the Mexican cartel. Most of all, the way he refused to go to the laundry and deliberately crashed his car.
Really, given all the leads, Hank did not need to have Sherlock Holmes' art of deduction to suspect that something is going on with Hank, and for some convenient reason (because the writers said so), he never decides to follow Walter when he used to go out for days leaving Skyler worried and perplexed.
Hank's stupidity is one of the major reasons why this show hasn't lived up to the hype for me.
In addition, Jessie Pinkman's character has become way too overblown with all this 'good guy' role that he has been playing, to the point that it has become cringeworthy and outright hypocritical.
The guy has been comfortable with destroying thousands of lives of other people by cooking and selling myth, he has been trying to sell meth to people in the rehab centre, he influenced his ex-junkie girlfriend who had been in rehab to go bad again, but suddenly when ONE innocent boy gets killed (in comparison to the thousands of lives that he has harmed with his meth), he decides that enough is enough and he is out.
I really do hope that in the few episodes that are left, his character takes a new road and he does something to redeem himself because Saint Pinkman's good guy gimmick is going nowhere even though it had/has so much potential.
Walter White and Gus Fring have been good as well. These guys along with Saul and Mike (both are my personal favorite) have done a good job negating the nonsense of Hank, Jessie and Skyler.
Well you seem to be the one have a problem with someone having a different set of favorite characters than yours, and not appreciating your favorite show as much as you do.
I suggest you should be the one who learns to appreciate difference of opinions, learns to behave himself and runs along.
There can always be further debate, unfortunately you seem to be the one who likes to debate only when he hear things he wants to hear.
