Breaking Bad

Never caught Breaking Bad, I'm a Mad Men man myself. But I'd like to watch BB and still have never seen The Wire. There's a few shows I'd like to watch. It's better once they're over though so you don't have to wait week to week.

That was one of the best finales I've ever seen.  The line that truly clenched it for me had to be:

 

"I did it for me. I liked it. I was good at it. And I was really... I was alive."

I'm still on Season Two...

 

Three tomatoes are walking down the street -- a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and squishes him... and says, 'Ketchup.'

Do you always go by what IMDB users and Metacritic users say?

 

I enjoyed Firefly, and I liked what I saw of Breaking Bad. The acting was good in both shows, but I liked the characters and story in Firefly better, but of course it would be kind of odd to actually like the characters in Breaking Bad.

When you make a statement such as, "Firefly is better", I think that can generally be debunked by posting scores on those websites--as those scores are a culmination of a very wide general consensus.

 

If you would have said, "I think Firefly is better", then the IMDb and Metacritic scores have no bearing.

 

Either way, Firefly is in my Amazon Prime watching list so I'll eventually get to it and reply accordingly.

 

The thing that appealed to me most about Breaking Bad was that morality (mostly, the lack thereof) was always a central theme of the show.

Not really, because it is all a matter of opinion, and opinions are neither true nor false; instead, they simply are a subjective viewpoint.

 

The sites you listed give the opinions of a select group of individuals (in the case of IMDB anyone who registers), but that is all it gives. You will not find truth on those sites, nor will you find the one and only valid opinion on a certain subject by looking at those sites.
