Season 3 begins tonight. Anyone else watch this? or is everyone slurping up Mad Men, and Dexter? just my opinion but this has a chance to become the new "the wire". acclaimed show that no one watches.

Just finished watching season 2 in preparation for tonight. Easily the best show on TV since The Wire.
What the fu...whatchu mean it's on par with The Wire? Let's see it go 5 seasons of consistent ass kicking episodes before we start talking like that.
I'd be intrigued if I hadn't read an article about it with a death *spoiler* awhile back. But I did, so I'm not.
I watched Season 1 on dvd last year but was too late to catch season 2 on tv... so I'm currently watching season 2 on dvd and dvr'ing season 3 until I catch up. I love what 've seen so far... especially being able to relate somewhat as a chemist.
Breaking Bad is one of my current top 5 along with Dexter, Sons Of Anarchy, Californication and Entourage. I'm looking forward to the season 3 premiere.
It made my "aw man I missed it!.. oh well" list.
Can't wait to watch it tonight
Wish I could watch live but I don't have AMC. Breaking Bad and Damages are really the only shows on TV I really like.

I watched season 1 and loved it. Don't have cable so I usually buy on dvd. Haven't got around to season 2 yet either. so im behind.
Just finished Season two on Friday, but I had no idea Season 3 started tonight. Awesome.
Great show. I'd put it right there with any other non-HBO drama series I've seen.
I've only watched Season 1, will I be totally lost if I start watching Season 3?
Yes. You should watch Season 2. It's only 13 episodes.
i fucked ted.....
FX turned this show down cause they didn't think the dad from malcolm in the middle could be taken seriously
wish this was on hbo. they would take more chances and you wouldnt have silent FUCK said
lets predict what you think happens this season,
i think hanks crew kills the twinssassins and hits the cartel hard before they get a chance to kill walter
Up to episode 1 of season 3.
I.f.t.
bingo. i think that is what will occur. i think though walt is going to take somebody out, maybe not kill but hurt somebody badly. maybe ted.
Great show but I hope it only goes maybe one more season. Some shows have a set life, and if this drags on 7-8 seasons it'll make no sense.

creator vince gilligan has already said he can envision no more than 5. given the popularity of the show i dont see it stopping at 4 but $ talks
i can see 6 good seasons with walt dying at the end, 4 seasons is too little for a good show with an average of 11 episodes a season. one thing i wish never happened is pinkman turning into a straight bitch, i wish he realized walt cared more for him than the junkie.
also, am i the only one who likes gustavo,
At some point Walt is going to take down the chicken guy (lol forgot his name). In interviews Bryan Cranston has said the show's natural path is from the transformation of a mild-mannered science teacher into the biggest drug lord in New Mexico.
I'm wondering what are the consequences of cooking of books.
Thanks for the info. 5 would be about right.
Seriously? Well, prison on an individual scale, the GFC on a global scale. Oh, and don't believe a word of it when people tell you that's the last of the financial shocks... the world is is still massively over-borrowed. It's just a matter of when the debt gets called in.
this show is the best on TV right now
the endings are especially great, makes you want to watch the next episode, pulls you in, like what the wire used to do.
the green light ending was great this week
The really interesting thing about BB for me is how they've turned Walter into such an unlikeable character. For most of the first two seasons I was solidly in his corner - sure, he was an anti-hero who did terrible things, but he did them for a righteous reason. In the last 6-8 episodes though, he has become a thoroughly unlikeable character who I can't sympathise with any more. Not only unlikeable, but irrationally angry about everything, and annoyingly incompetent (he was always that, but when I was on his side his incompetence was humorous, not frustrating).
It's a big risk to make your main guy totally unsympathetic, but they've done it cleverly by bringing in Saul as a clown, and spreading the story more broadly over the ensemble, which is fascinating from a writing POV.
What are some other shows that have transformed their main character like this? Off the top of my head, I can't think of any.
I think part of the reason it works is because they made his wife a complete bitch from day 1, and she's gotten even more insufferable as the show has gone on. Even if Walt becomes less likeable, you still root for him because you hate his wife so much.
If anyone is on Skylar's side, I have no words for you.
from the "grey matter" episode in season 1 you could tell that he had so much pent up anger from not reaching his potential
on a side note i think his htey ver amde a venutres bros live action movie cranston would be dr venture
