Television Breaking Bad

Ok so 5 years after the initial airing and after the series has finished altogether, I finally gave this a shot today. Without spoiling anything to come, what do people think of the pilot? I thought it was great and will watch episode 2 tomorrow I expect.
 
Loved the pilot. Loved the series. And want to have bryan cranston's babies.

One question, maybe I missed something early on, but if he is a chemistry teacher why does he work at a car wash?

I was about to laugh, then realise that he did actually used to work in a carwash. So much had happened over the 5 series that I forgot that.
 
Just finished watching it all and I think it is one of the best series I have watched.

In terms of plot it's probably the best I've ever seen. The Sopranos has the best characters, while The Wire is the whole package wrapped up in fantastic social commentary, which makes it the greatest in my opinion.

Depends what you value though, I can see arguments for all three.

Can we not forget Two Broke Girls and the latest seasons of How I met your mother when having this debate? Thanks.
 
Sad to see the 2h15m documentary "No Half Measures" following the making of the final season, which was a feature on the special edition blu-ray box set has been leaked onto the internet.
 
I kinda envy those who still have this show to watch and have no idea whats in front of them. The surprises of watching it the first time are the best even though some of the scenes are just to awesome not to watch again.

I'll be giving it another go at some point I expect.

Not only does it get better, it also radically changed. It's likely that what you didn't enjoy about the first episodes vanishes after, it becomes a much faster show after that. It has the right amount of tension and of character development. It really is very good 2MM, I'd advise you to give it another sustained shot.

Shame is that. First two episodes are about as good as it gets and if you don't like them you won't like the rest.

I'm not sure: I really enjoy the first episodes and I think the first season is excellent, but I think it's a bit simplistic to say that if you don't like them you're not going to enjoy the rest. It's quite fascinating with BB how much the show changes and evolves throughout the seasons, I think that depending on your tastes, you could easily adore seasons 3, 4 and 5 without having particularly liked the first one for example.
 
The two hour documentary was fantastic. Highly recommend every one watches it. Only problem is you'll start missing the show even more.
 
Does anybody know if they plan on selling any more of the limited edition blue ray box sets, I really wanted one but they were limited to amazon and sold out straight away and now the only place I can find them is on ebay for like £400.
 
That was quality!! I wonder where they got the kids from.
 
Don't read unless you finished the series...

I just saw on IMDB that Bryan Cranston has "Walt's Funeral" in his list of appearances. But I've not seen anything about it
