Where can I start this show besides S01E01, or S01E02...lol. I would like to give it a chance, But I want to start in the niddy griddy. Guide me o great ones!

Thanks.

Start from the first episode and know that it gets better. Or if you don't want S01E01 or S1E02 start from S01E03.

Definitely not. You HAVE to watch from start to finish. The series is already so short, you will get lost if you miss an episode. Try to see a couple more episodes, but if it still doesn't get to you, then I guess the best show ever is not for you.

Like the 4th quarter of a football game. You seem to know the show well, give me a season.

Breaking Bad is so good from the get go so just watch the whole thing. I am pretty sure you will love the show as much as everyone here does.

I feel like the greatness of the show can only be appreciated from seeing where it starts to how it ends up.

How did the very first scene not pull you in? The first few episodes lay a critical foundation for the show. I just dont understand how it would work skipping these episodes. These episodes, including the pilot are referenced all the way up to, and even including, the series finale.

But if you must, I guess were it goes from first to sixth gear is, S1E6 were they first meet their distributor. But jumping straight into episode 6, I just, I...

Please no one here degrade this show and answer this person with anything other than the Pilot.

Thanks.

S01E06 it is. I didnt think a simple question could be so hard. Just respect my opinion as I do yours. Any objective opinions out there?....that won't be condescending..

I hope this thread stays alive lol I don't want it to die yet...

Edword · 10-02-2013, 12:55 AM

I'm sure we'll all be talking about it for a while! Still hasn't sunk in for me. That might change on Sunday though when there isn't a new episode

A Sith Lord? · 10-02-2013, 02:10 AM

I started House I think Season 5 around there.

I watched marathons on USA's End of the Weekenditis. The eps were not in order, and they were only fan favourite episodes.

If a blu-ray set ever comes out, I'll surely buy it and watch them all.

cuzzin · 10-02-2013, 02:24 AM

So what was Walt's plan

And do y'all think Jesse

Can't believe people took the Huell thing that serious. I thought it was funny.

Just try to get through the first season. I adore every season of this show but if it doesn't pull you in by at most season 3, this show isn't working for you.

Please, please start from the beginning, the show is basically one long character arc and you will miss quite a bit of the emotional impact when you watch the final episodes if you don't start from the beginning. Please!

S1E1! The show is only 62 episodes, not that long. Do it!

THIS. If you don't like it by the start of season 3, then stop.
