The original was crap so guessing this will be even worse.

Breaking Bad, IMHO, is the absolute best TV series in history, The Sopranos 2nd. 100% consistent throughout the seasons, something The Sopranos could not do.

With 9.5 on IMDB, and 96% on the Tomatometer and a 97% Audience Score over at Rotten Tomatoes, I suspect you're in a very small minority with this take

Looks fake to me buddy. Lots of footage of Saul from that Nobody movie he did, and Jesse from that dumb Fast and Furious or whatever movie he did. Strung together by some guy in his mom's basement with too much time on his hands.
And any disparagement of Breaking Bad is heresy!

To each his own. I loved the series. Sure not every episode was Steller but that's how these things go when you have multiple directors.
There is a boat load of shows some members here rave about, that I turned off after the first ten minutes.

I guess I should give it another try. I only made it through 2 or 3 episodes.

Yeah…first season is slow. Get to season 2 and it’s GREAT from there.

I watched the 1st 2 episodes like 3 times after saying 'nah' and turning it off. It get's better & those episodes really set the stage after I got near the end of season 1.

Easily top 5 of best show and series finale.
If it won't matter in 5 years don't give it more than 5 minutes.

Watched the entire series. It was terrible not a single likable character in the whole show. Jesse was beyond annoying. Flat terrible. I know I am in the minority on this one but man just could not get into it.

You viewed sixty-two episodes of the show you despise?

Yes. The wife enjoyed it and everyone raved about it so kind of hoped it would just pop at some point. I have watched numerous series all the way through for one reason or another even though I did not enjoy them.
