Now not to be Mr doom and gloom here but I have since started it again and I'm not feeling it the same...yeah probably because the surprises aren't there but I don't know,films I have loved and went back and watched I still thought the same but this hasn't had the same effect.
It might be the overall length of the show I know I have in front of me,maybe I started again too soon after finishing it,it was my partner who was intrigued after I had went on so much about it but it was great first time round,this time it's just not grabbing me the same way I thought it would.

She is really enjoying which is great.

It was better for me the second time around. I noticed stuff I didn't pick up on the first time.

I was keeping you's going hence the icon,I know.
Hey I love the show,I was just stating that it had a less impact on me second time round....on a plus note,it's probably because it couldn't get any better after I saw it for the first time....even with the little bit's I may have missed.

The Rusty Urinal · 06-01-2014, 08:21 PM

I've watched the whole series 3 times in total and each time was as good if not better than the last. This really is a brilliant show and although not my favorite it is certainly one of the top 3 shows of all time.

djgeneral · 06-01-2014, 09:08 PM

I really hope they do not continue the show though. Period. I am perfectly fine with the spin-off, really excited for that. They are able to fill in gaps with the story, and we might get to learn more about Gus (thank God Revolution was canceled!) lol. I am also all for a cameo of Walt in the background somewhere or a brief plot with Jesse, etc. other characters from the past if they have a logical and good way to go about it, and there are plenty. Vince and everyone involved know the legacy of the show, and they are not the kind of people to do something just for increased ratings or something. I trust them.

Me too,I can't see how starting it again can improve things,it ain't broke and all that.

Yeah I loved Saul so I am looking forward to that but leave it at that!

Visco. · 06-01-2014, 10:13 PM

Agree with both of you. But I do want to see more Jesse.

If television gave us anything to tweet about this year, it was Walter White’s journey from chemistry teacher to Heisenberg to whatever it was that he became.

Nielsen has released its list of this year’s most talked-about series on Twitter, which was calculated from September 1, 2013 to May 25, 2014. Breaking Bad not only topped the list — with an average reach of 6 million people per each new episode — but also took home the award for the greatest reach for a single airing, thanks to its buzzy series finale. Viewers’ final hour with Walt, Jesse, and all those crazy Nazis reached 9.1 million people on Twitter, making it quite literally the tune-in event of the year. However, The Voice set the record for total tweets sent about a single episode with 1.92 million tweets about its episode on May 13.

Speaking more generally, here are the year’s top ten series on Twitter (in order):

1. Breaking Bad
2. The Walking Dead
3. Pretty Little Liars
4. The Bachelor
5. Game of Thrones
6. Teen Wolf
7. American Horror Story: Coven
8. Scandal
9. The Voice
10. Dancing With the Stars

If ya don't mind,could ya at least PM me what you think of it second time round because for me as much as I loved it,it wasn't the same and I have found some episodes just alright,I didn't want to say mundane because I loved the show first time but I actually might sell it as I don't ever see myself watching it a third time...even though there are great moments in there.

For you maybe,I have been an advocate for the show from the first time I got into it but for me it wasn't the same second time round...that is how I felt about it.

So your comment is just a personal opinion and not fact.
