Breaking Bad doesn't deserve to sit at the table with The Sopranos and The Wire

[Jazzy B.]

im at the end of season 4 of The Shield (overrated as fukk, has nothing on season 1 of Gang Related but cant stop watching cause of the random ass storylines).

I wish I started The Sopranos before starting this overrated ass The Shield shyt (Glenn Close has been killing it with her role though, that old bytch can act her ass off), which one of you fukk ass nikkas had told me to start watching The Shield over The Sopranos cause of the levels of fukkery???????? Whoever it was that told me that, fukk YOU BRO, I cant stop watching this bullshyt

So The Strike Team's got you hooked?


You aint even on season 5 the GOAT season, where the fukkery escalates ten fold

I'm not sure it's the BEST, but it's definitely top 5 based on cinematography and acting alone. The script writing was pretty tight too, but I agree, sometimes it didn't quite flow and you could tell they didn't do a big outline before the entire series began. But it still worked extremely well, for the most part.

I initially came in here to do my usual "Breaking Bad" spiel but in this thread I've seen people say:

1. "Breaking Bad" is over rated.
2. "The Wire" doesn't belong next to "The Sopranos"
3. "The Sopranos" is wack.
4. "The Shield" is garbage.
5. fukk "Game Of Thrones".

I'm sitting here reading the thread like:

I don't even know where to begin. If nothing else the fukkery will be off the charts, thus the sticky.

honestly i'm not sure i would put the wire at the same table as sopranos either.

i know that's gonna cause a ruckus but the thing that holds the wire back for me is that you can't tell me that you were interested in EVERY single angle.

Same thing could be said for the Sopranos or were you interested in all of those shytty Carmella, Meadow and AJ storylines like you were for Tony's? Carmella getting her real estate license? Really?

I would just like to take credit for getting the expected fukkery kicked off something proper.

Upon further inspection you're right. You came through like:

I was with you until you placed Boardwalk empire up there with the Sopranos and the Wire....

Boardwalk is not even on the same level as Breaking Bad which I argue is one of the best written shows in tv history...

Breaking Bad is still one of the greatest ever, but its not touching tv perfection like Sopranos, Wire, and X-Files

Boardwalk is not even in the conversation

X files does not belong on that list

I'd rather watch The Wire/Sopranos/Game of Thrones/Boardwalk Empire over BB. I acknowledge it's a good show but, I'll never watch it again. I wouldn't mind watching reruns of everything else I just named.

 

[FlyRy]

OP you just mentioned my top 3 shows ever.

and one of my other favs in BE
