Do stick with it! I watched the first five episodes (I think) before I began to care and from then on I was hooked! Hopefully you'll enjoy it if you watch a few more - both it and BB (especially this last season) are really rewarding viewing IMO.

For anyone wanting to get into the wire or sopranos, I found I really started getting into both around half way into their second seasons. Upon rewatching both of them, I then enjoyed their first seasons more.

The Wire is the hardest to get into. But once you're in, you'll appreciate why it is considered the best of the best. Breaking Bad is joint best, but if they nail it tonight they will be the best.

My top 4 tv shows of all time: (yes 4!)

4. Deadwood
3. The Sopranos
Joint 1. The Wire/Breaking Bad

Below that I start picking seasons of certain shows. Game of thrones may well claim fifth spot soon!

Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire, and Homeland are all at 8 PM Central tonight..think the world might explode from awesomeness.

I would put Deadwood on my list too if it wasn't for the lack of a finale.

Here's my top 3:
LOST
Breaking Bad
The Wire

I never watched the Sopranos

Don't forget Revenge.

blurayisnice · 09-29-2013, 06:15 PM

how bout Boardwalk Empire, is that as good as BrBa

Visco. · 09-29-2013, 06:23 PM

My top 5 has got to be

The Office
Game of Thrones
Breaking Bad (this show has grown on me so much)
Mad Men
Wilfred

I still need to watch The Wire, Homeland, Six Feet Under, and Boardwalk Empire though.

That's 5.

Dispatch Ninja · 09-29-2013, 06:32 PM

Right now, my top 3 shows:

Breaking bad
Game of thrones
The sopranos

Other shows that I like, but can't list as my favorites because I feel their quality dips too much in later seasons: The office, It's always sunny in Philadelphia, Dexter, Lost,

Other shows that I still need to watch/dive into more: The wire, boardwalk empire, mad men.

SilentDawn · 09-29-2013, 06:37 PM

This wait is unbearable, man am I going to miss this show!

I am hoping for one shocking and mind blowing finale, which we will probably get.

Not sure if I'd say it was as good, but if it isn't it's very close... The first three seasons were great and well worth watching (not seen any of the fourth yet).

blurayisnice · 09-29-2013, 06:49 PM

In how many hours will Breaking Bad air in the USA?

I wouldn't put BE in the same league as BB. It's good, but it's not that good.

I'm sure we'll see Huell, Marie, and the ricin this episode (remember Walt goes back for it).

Hmm, I can never decide how highly I rate it. I think you could be right, based off the strength of the last couple of seasons of BB (especially this current one). But then BE might improve further like BB did from its early seasons. Either way, BB and The Wire are probably my top two shows of all time!

Noahishere · 09-29-2013, 07:15 PM

Cannot wait for tonights finale. I am curious if people are going to be divided on it as with other shows in the past. Should be interesting. Personally, I think I'm going to love it 100%.

You can't really compare the two shows but I enjoy them both immensely.

I honestly don't think I will be disappointed in the slightest, I am ready for whatever ending Vince Gilligan wants to conclude this story with.
