Seriously anybody that doesn't like Breaking Bad should have their TV viewing rights revoked for at least 2 years, there isn't anything like one man's trash is another man's treasure here. Some people just have terrible taste. angry They need to be forcibly corrected.

I kid. Or not.

Breaking bad was there as far as I am concerned. To begin with, nothing much happened in the first two seasons, I just kept faith cause of the hype, S3 was ok then S4 got padded with fluff just to drag the show to S5. My opinion, it was okay but it was wasn't all that abeg!

I am going to give the Americans the benefit of doubt tonight. Maybe even 'Better call Saul'.

How I arrived at my conclusions ke? Na by watching now grin

Great shows - OITNB, first 3 seasons of Homeland - (it's a joke now, so I have stopped watching), House of Cards (Even if I hated that the Underwoods scammed everybody so easily), GOT - ( I pulled two all-nighters to watch to the first two seasons), Downton Abbey ( I know it's a period drama but damn! the writing, plot and acting is so good). Big Bang theory and how I met your mother ( We all need to laugh and not over think the plots and subplots sometimes abeg! 24 - before it became ridiculous.

Good shows - The Blacklist, POI, Suits (beginning to lose it's appeal too as far as I am concerned), Scandal/GA/HTGAWM ( All Shonda Rhimes shows I know even if she does have a penchant for the dramatic)

OK shows - BB abeg, na strong head I carry watch the whole thing and it took me over six months as I just had o keep dragging myself back to see the end and if the show would redeem itself in my eyes. Devious maids, I gave up after E3 of S1, I just nor fit, White Collar, I managed to finish S1 before I gave up

Please don't revoke my TV rights o, I can't survive without telefishun o!

Everybody can't like every show you think is Super great...
Most times now,we watch shows cause the director is Great,Our favorite actor/actress is there or we want to see something new,etc......But is there anything new about any of the shows we watch?
Is like watching HOMELAND and stupidly believing that's how the CIA works or watching PRISON BREAK and believing you can just break out and do anything you like....
All this things are just entertainment, and I believe everybody has their right to decide what's entertaining to them!!

@Naijababe.
I wanted to see how you rated other shows and if your rating system was suspect. grin You can tell what kind of TV person someone is by glancing at their list of highly rated shows.

For the fact that House of Cards and GoT made it in to your list of great shows your TV rights will remain unrevoked. smiley I wouldn't call OITNB a great show though - just mildly interesting, I'd put it in the same class you put White Collar. TBBT wouldn't be on in my list for the singular reason that I find that Sheldon guy nauseating. Can't stand him. Your dislike for BB remains an anomaly.

OINTB is a damn great show if you can look past its almost female cast. Sheldon is the heart of TBBT o, that guy has the ability to change my moods from super foul to tolerable grin

-Currently watching The Newsroom Season 1. I'm surprised people are not recommending this HB0 TV series more often. It's one of those shows with fool-proofed plots you simply cannot poke holes in even if you gave it your best shot. The show rocks - HBO style baby!

Better call Saul, I couldn't download the first episode because it was pulled down, they say due to copyright infringement.

Seen episode 2, Saul as good as ever and good seeing Tuco Salamanca and Mike (Walters hit man) . Unfortunately both Jesse and Walter white won't feature even as guest actors.

According to the showrunner, there's a strong possibility of Walter White making a cameo - hopefully several cameos - in the later stages of the show, so don't lose hope yet. Remember, this is a story of Saul before he met Heseinberg.

Check Kickass for Dr Who. Thats where I get most of the shows I watch.

I hope you know all my comments earlier were made in jest, there was no intent to cause offence whatsoever.

Y'all better watch out for "Better Call Saul". It has the potential of becoming as bada$$ as it's predecessor, Breaking Bad. Vince Giligan is a genius.

The Blacklist S02E11. Red is one smart cookie. Don't think he's on your side cuz he ain't. Red only cares about 3 people in this universe. Himself, himself and himself. grin

Meanwhile, Liz past is about to catch up with her. Someone is singing like a canary and Liz is the center of the story. Will she go running to Red for help or is she gonna whether the storm herself? Mehn... already jonsing for the next episode.

I am already stockpiling Better Call Says and would watch it as I liked Saul a lot.
However this hype around BB is almost silly. It is like the arrogant snobbish hype you get from apple users.
The series was good but nothing extraordinary. Nothing like Sopranos or West Wing that were universally accepted to be work of genius.

Breaking Bad is better than the Sopranos or any other shows out there, You'd better believe It. The only show I can say that is a bit better is The Wire. No show is better than the Wire.

One thing about BB is once you don't like the first few episodes, you'll never like the rest. It's much like The Wire in that instance. BB is the only other show after The Wire and - presently Banshee - that treated every single episode like a season finale. You can't beat that. BB is not overhyped my friend, what may seem like an overblown reputation to most people is nothing but justified.

Side note: iOS is better than every other OS out there. Apple products destroy other competing products. It's not a snobbish hype, merely a simple fact.
