    Yeah you need to be in the humour of sitting down and paying close attention to it for the full 50 mins or so to fully appreciate it, which is why I hadn't watched it in so long.

    I have enjoyed every episode I've watched though, the acting is superb and I am intrigued to see where it all ends up.

    Watched 1 or 2 episodes of that and it wasn't my cup of tea at all. I know more than anyone though that 1 or 2 episodes isn't near enough to judge a series on.. it's just not something that reeled me in.

    Mad Men was a work of art. There's a reason it used to win best drama every year at the emmys ahead of BB and GOT . Once you get into it and are invested into the story , it is a seriously deep and thought provoking journey. I was in mourning for a week when it ended.

    Doubt I'll ever get into another TV like that.

    The hype for the last half of the final series is unlike anything I've seen before. Mental how long it took to start to gain a big audience. Remember the director saying he was surprised it got a second series because of how little interest there was in it to start with.

    Walter White is easily the greatest tv character of all time IMO. Will never get another character like that.

    The Sopranos & Twin Peaks are a cut above the rest for me.

    Just finished watching complete Breaking Bad. Superb. Can totally get what all the fuss was about. Favourite characters were Mike and Saul. Now starting to watch Better Call Saul!

    Finished it the other week. Excellent show and it launched the career of most of the main characters. Its actually listed in so many magazines and review places as one of the best shows ever to be cancelled.



    In terms of my favourite ever show, Band of Brothers and Game of Thrones are the top 2 I'd say. In terms of comedy I think the Peep Show is genius.

    Seen Breaking Bad a couple year back but found it underwhelming. I went through a whole year of not watching it and then came back, wasn't one that dragged me in.

    Game of Thrones is, and like always will be, my favourite TV show. It has everything. Personally think it's on another level compared to Breaking Bad and The Sopranos, from what I've seen of it.

    Recently watched both seasons of The Leftovers, and if the final season coming out soon is as good as season 2, it'll probably be my second favoutire show. * me off that shows like that barely get any viewers yet utter dross gets millions.

    I'm about 9 episodes in now, love it.

    The humour is similar to Malcolm in the Middle which I love as well.
