Riveting. Features masterful writing, acting, directing, and cinematography throughout. Season 5's "Ozymandias" - arguably the series' true climax - might be the best episode of TV I've ever seen.

It amazes me to this day how much of this show the writers made up as it went. As it progresses, it goes from "good" to "great" to "HOLY GOD HOW THE FUCK DOES A SHOW THIS AMAZING EXIST IN A WORLD BOUNDED BY THE LAWS OF THERMODYNAMICS?!" This show contains some of the best characterization, and character moments, I've ever seen anywhere. It beautifully, perfectly accomplishes exactly the kind of things that take years of trust and knowledge of the characters to build, and it all works.

I was discussing with one of my friends how both of us very strongly connected with Walt. That's when I realized that this is really just a power fantasy for the cynical. It's about how we all want to be two steps ahead so we can say "fuck you" to everybody while still being human enough to bumble our way though ignorance and mistakes. And in the end, it doesn't end well for us. At the end we just want to go back to when things were simple and chaotic. Before we became worse than what we hated.

The overarching character arc from antihero to villain is what ties this together, but the wealth of performances (that deepen after the first few episodes), the irresistible humor, the tension, the visual direction, and the pay-offs are what make this great. One of my favorite TV shows of all time.

'Breaking Bad' is a rather shrewd feminist satire of the male ego, notable for two things: 1) The transformation of the main protagonist from anti-hero into full on bad guy. 2) The impressively dark peaks. But when all is said and done we have to ask ourselves: Is this 'The Wire'? Answer is no. No it is not.

Seems to strive for an air of authenticity despite being totally ludicrous, which is a balancing act I'd argue the show fails to pull off. More easily recognizable as a comedy than a drama. Super boring up until the 4th season when it finally starts to make something of itself. Bryan Cranston and Giancarlo Esposito are the highlights. Vince Gilligan is an unremarkable writer and moralist. Malcolm in the Middle was better.

Exactly what television series are supposed to be. Instead of trying to replicate the direction of film, which in that regard is a much superior format, it emphasizes writing. Employing a gigantic character arc that is impossible to pull off in a shorter time span. That last season was simply amazing. Loved the humor.

When people speak of the golden age of television, I immediately think of Breaking Bad as the shining, kingly example. It is perfectly written, perfectly acted, perfectly framed and directed, perfectly paced. From the first episode, it's as addictive as everyone's lauded it is, and every minute starts to blink away until you're craving the next episode. It's frankly the best television drama ever crafted.

Bryan Cranston's transformation from chemistry teacher to drug king pin is easily the finest performance I have ever witnessed on television. Breaking Bad bad did everything right to keep you guessing and inching your way to the end of your seat. By the time the series ended you couldn't even sit through the emotional tension, you had to pace the room and question every bit of decision making and every word that was spoken. Easily top 3 best series of all time, no doubt about it.

Breaking Bad is the pinnacle of TV drama. While the focus is certainly the transformation of Walter White, the richness of the periphery truly elevates his story. I don't think I've ever seen a show that so successfully builds suspense over multiple seasons toward a thunderous finish.

A phenomenal, excitement/action/twist-packed crime thriller and an intimate character study about a man slowly losing his soul, that manages to be both in a near-perfect 50/50 balance without ever losing sight of one or the other. Some of the most gripping individual scenes in TV history, like the shootout in "One Minute" or the opening desert scene of "Ozymandias." A few points off for a bunch of poorly-developed Nazis taking over as the villains at the end. Nazis, you ain't no Gus Fring.

Cranston's insanely good performance made the show believable, despite how outlandish everything really was. And watching the final season was one of my fondest television zeitgeist memories. On rewatch, I note that the first season's biggest flaw--some thin characters--is turned on its head by giving basically everybody other than Junior really unbeatable character developments and plot arcs. Solidly my #2 tv drama (at least maybe until I finish the Sopranos).

The 'selfmade-carefree-millionaire-friend' made use of the resources a now crippled, bullied high school teacher. The idea of gradual progress of society, for the betterment of all, is a hoax. Relief must come now. The system breaks bad. In the realm of hungry ghosts, everyone takes what can be taken. A drug-and-crime epidemic undermines and then actually kills law and neighbourly love.

Each episode is like a hit of crystal meth, a sudden euphoric rush followed by needing more when it's all over. Unlike crystal meth however, watching Breaking Bad doesnt make your teeth fall out or force you to turn tricks behind the Kwik-E-Mart

I guess I'm not a big fan of "important" TV dramas, having completely failed to appreciate Mad Men, Homeland, The X-Files, True Blood, Game of Thrones, The Sopranos, Oz, House of Cards, Deadwood, and The Wire -- the characters never meant anything to me and I didn't care what happened to them. Breaking Bad is a rare exception, a ridiculously impressive dramatic achievement in all respects, maintaining an ever-escalating level of white-knuckle tension throughout the length of its entire run.

There isn't much to say other than Breaking Bad is one of the best tv series of all time. The script isn't the best, it goes around in circles, and if you read into it you realize that a lot of what happened in the show was coincidental. Turns out, it's those coincidences that make it such a great show. The actors all shined in their roles (yes, even Skyler), and they knew to stop before it had a chance to become boring.

2. sezon bitince bırakıldı. berbat bir dizi değil ancak 60 saat vakit harcanacak kadar da iyi değil. her bölüm başlarına gelen onlarca olay Akasya Durağı tadında. uyuşturucu satıcısı da olsalar bi insanın her gün böyle aksiyonlu yaşamı olmaz. başrolün motivasyonu da "inanılmaz önemli" değildi. dizinin devamını bilmiyorum ama verilen puanlara akıl sır erdiremedim. diziyi başyapıt yapacak tek şey; iki erkek başrolün oyunculuğu ve açık alanlardaki sinematografi. geri kalan her şey ortalama.

When Walt first breaks bad, there's a feeling of machismo escapism to it all-- a fantasy to be later punctured by the full consequences of Walt's selfishness, insecurity and degraded morals. Or at least, I guess that's how we're supposed to feel as viewers. When Walt is forced later in the series to confront people even more evil than he (Neo-nazis! Gasp!), it's a fist-pumping, badass celebration whenever he triumphs. In other words, this series really wants to have its cake and eat it too

Breaking Bad is brilliantly acted and well-written. It's almost always intense, and showcases a great character study along with plenty of action and occasional humour. It's also massively overrated. Often slow, with unlikable characters and an irritating fan base. Nevertheless, it's a cultural phenomenon that deserves (at least some of) the praise it has received.

The problem is that the entire story is told in the first season (maybe even the first episode tbh) and the rest is just hit or miss plotlines that mostly repackage and recycle the same ideas. It's still very slick and entertaining but treads close to meaningless exploitation trash. Yes Bryan Cranston is brilliant in the role and probably the reason I enjoyed it to the end, although there were a lot of good performances from both cast and crew.

One of the few shows where the pilot is enough to garner a recommendation. No one had seen anything like it before, the father from Malcolm in the Middle, in his underwear careening through the desert in a beat-up combi, refitted to cook meth. Also of merit, the occasional utilisation of chemistry 'magic' to get out of various situations.

For the fist couple of seasons, I wasn't that into it. Sure it was good, but not a binge-watching show like some of it's contemporaries. But by the end of season 3 the slow build up pays off, and the final two seasons become an intense tour de force as the world falls apart, eventually culminating in one of the most satisfying finales in TV history.

Really overrated. Walter White's turn from mild-mannered chemistry teacher to McGyvering drug lord wannabe basically happens overnight and is hardly believable. Filled with lazy writing leading to predictable outcomes, deus ex machina, plot armor, ... Credibility progressively unravels after S2. Few characters, with thin characterizations. Middle-of-the-road direction, with a few good scenes. Really good actors. Compelling enough to keep on watching but hardly one of the greatest TV series ever.

When it's good, it's amazing. But it's otherwise slow, meaningless, repetitive, and at times outright terrible.

While it has some fascinating character arcs, I'm very hesitant to call it the GOAT, or even the decade. It took me 3 tries to finally finish the show, the first two times getting stuck during the slow second season, and while the later seasons really amp up the tension, and feature some genuinely great episodes, the pseudo-heroic finale felt dissonant to the themes of the show and the show as a whole had maybe a few too many plot contrivances. Call it a lukewarm endorsement.

Saying way overrated is falling short. En episode about killing a fly... whatever! and then "Sunset" a Thrilling one. One or two in a season like this one do not compensate me to see the whole thing. After the sixth episode of the four season, I stopped watching. Something positive? Walter's wife and her evolution throughout the series. Period. I even prefer "Better Call Saul" although is not the big thing either.

Breaking Bad is hands down my favorite show. It’s brilliant how it combines adventure scenes-normally not my favorite genre—with deep, nuanced character development. The balance between action and character analysis is seamless. Just when I thought the show couldn’t get better, it gave rise to another masterpiece in Better Call Saul. A show that’s captivating to the last detail and truly one of a kind!

However, I feel as though sometimes the plots are hard to follow, and I feel as though they abandoned Walter's... established book-smarts after the first season. I would've liked more references to how he was originally, his chemical knowledge, his college-learning. (P.S. Skyler White Deserves Better.)

technically 78-80 maybe. grew on me after. like last 4 eps 85-90 though. S1 great for high concept but not as good as S2 gets especially with jesse. S3 i liked less most of it cuz jesse faded but still maintained that quality. then both walt and jesse were inconsistent for me but the gus plot for 4 got crazy. but thats really when this felt like a "write them into it then write them out of it" kinda show as opposed to more logical acceptance like GoT writing, which i prefer but bb did its great

Season 1 - Walt White is a down-on-his-luck chemistry teacher struggling to make ends meet for his wife and physically challenged son. Everything changes when Walt receives a startling diagnosis: terminal lung cancer. With only a few years to live and nothing to lose, Walt uses his training as a chemist to cook and sell crystal meth with one of his former students.
