The way Snowfall was SNUBBED was due to RACISM. It was BETTER than Breaking Bad in EVERY REGARD.

Snowfall could have stood on its own two, there’s a reason I didn’t mention breaking bad. Snowfall has to do with breaking bad, aside from both being centered around drugs.

Breaking bad is 85% tongue in cheek comedy until a little bit of tension and resolution. Snowfall is mostly trying to be serious.

I don’t care about cac male fantasy. I didn’t expect much out of breaking bad. Snowfall just didn’t measure up because it was on FX and shouldn’t have been created with a different direction in mind.

Breh Breaking Bad and Snowfall essentially have the SAME STORY:mjtf:. Thats why I compared them.

I agree Snowfall was more serious. But let’s not rewrite history and act like Breaking Bad was meant to be viewed as “tongue in cheek”comedy like say Power. We wouldn’t have posters in here saying the dramatic acting in Breaking Bad was better than Snowfall’s if this was the case.

They’re not the same at all lmao. The similarities are more shallow than a puddle of spider piss. Not even nuanced differences, these are dramatically different shows with dramatically different stories at their center. Having a monopoly on their respective product is the only real similarity.

Snowfall is very loosely based on Ricky Ross starting the crack epidemic and a CIA employee’s involvement. It spans the western hemisphere. Every character is serious and acts as if to be taken serious. It has all the pieces of something that should have been reenacted memoirs with light-ish changes. Instead it was a crime drama that slowly got turned into a hood soap opera like “Power” but the show doesn’t like to poke fun at itself like “Power” or “Breaking bad”. It took itself WAY too serious for what it was trying to be. It was just mediocre, shallow, and would have been better off keeping it closer to the real story and focusing on Franklins interactions with dealers in other US cities. It should have focused on real gangs in LA, and the ugly effects on cities with colder imagery mixed in with real life footage from the times.

Breaking bad is about to dusty cac losers who fumble their dumb ass way into having to produce meth for an equaly stupid cartel. They also have a goofy ass lawyer and his henchmen in tow. Somebody would have to be autistic not to see that “Breaking bad” wasn’t marketed as a dramatic comedy with serious themes from the jump. Anyone taking themselves too seriously is probably going to die within that season. When the main characters are trying to be serious and tough, they are quickly beaten back down by the reality that they really aren’t shyt in the bigger scheme, find themselves in situations to be laughed at. Matter of fact “breaking bad” excelled when it was laughing at itself. It made the serious moments stand out. It was goofy weak cac’s poising and destroying the lives of other cac’s. I’m not sure how much of a white power fantasy could even be found there.

If you REALLY want to compare “Snowfall” to a show, that isn’t “power”, it would be “Son’s of Anarchy”. Another show that took itself too seriously but was definitely worse. That weak bullshyt was 100% white power fantasy.

They are the same CORE story.

Two SQUARES who join the drug trade, starting small to sell a specific drug (Meth/cocaine) and then eventually takeover while at the same time becoming ruthless and not the people they were in the first season. Along with becoming obsessed with money and destroying their familial life and ties in the process in pursuit off. The people closest to them turn on them and both characters lose everything in the end. What the hell are you talking about that they're not similar :mjlol:

Breaking Bad was a cartoon like Power. Gus Frings gets blown up but then walks out of a building and adjusts his damn tie :mjlol:


Again if Breaking Bad was this so called comedy then why are y'all saying the dramatic acting and performances was better than Snowfall's? :mjlol:

Look at the two scenes





They are the same with the main character looking to make a drug deal in the first seasons of the their respective shows. One has the High School teacher boss up on an ESTABLISHED cartel member while also being invulnerable to an explosion as if he's laced with Vibranium. The other has the main character at the mercy of an established drug dealer while visibly fearing for his life.

:manny:
You WANT them to be the same. I’m sorry you feel that way, and there’s nothing to be done since both series are over. Everyone else seems to have placed their faith with “Breaking Bad” and decided “Snowfall”. BB is already cemented in its glory. You’re preferred show lawst to a meth dramedy headlined by the dad from Malcolm in the middle.

Two overrated shows imo. Not sure I rank one clearly better than the other. This board is mostly cacs so I get the love for Breaking Bad. For damn near any negative comment you can make for Snowfall I can make for Breaking Bad. Can't bring up the tiger episode without bringing up the fly episode etc.. I will say Snowfall was a bit more realistic and at least cops existed. Breaking Bad required a suspension of belief a lot of the time and there were basically no cop presence outside of Hank.

Walter's brother in law was literally a DEA agent lmao. I know the idea of a cancer-addled chemistry teacher becoming a drug kingpin was ridiculous, but he didn't exactly make it easy for the authorities to figure it out. He had more money trouble (earning and hiding it) than dropping bodies early on until [REDACTED] was blown up at the end of Season 4.
