[QUOTE=RoseCity07]Dude, this show is awesome. I just started watching last weak from the pilot episode. AMC is playing 3 at a time, from 11 pm to 2 am.
Great show. I haven't had a show since Nip/Tuck and The Shield went off the air. This is my show now.:cheers:[/QUOTE]
Don't watch the commercials for Season 4. They basically give you every spoiler from season 1 to 3.

agreed
im finna get me a fat satchel of some shards and put in work then watch season 4 premier
I really hope it turns out as good as the early reviews claim.
I got tons of heat when I stated a while back, that it was better than The Sopranos.
True... The Sopranos was groundbreaking and this show wouldn't be alive without it. And YES it was well written, acted and directed, but the shit was a snore fest compared to Breaking Bad. This show packs everything that made The Sopranos great, but delivers it in a more exciting/fast paced package.
OMFG I can't wait till Season 4. Just 3 more days.
If this season is a masterpiece which many think it is I will rank it behind "The Wire" as the greatest show ever.
The Sopranos started to decline after season 2, Breaking Bad gets better and better every season, very rare for a TV show.
i have 3 and a half days to rewatch the first 3 seasons
GO!!! :rockon:

what do you mean Breaking Bad wouldn't be alive without Sopranos?:confusedshrug:
What does the one have to do with the other?
what do you mean Breaking Bad has everything that made Sopranos great? :confusedshrug:
Like what? What exactly did both shows have that's the same?
same directors or writers :confusedshrug:
or are you just saying in general they were both hit shows?
both having a strong lead character and great surrounding cast members?
By the way.. I'm not giving you crap right now . .
just wondering how you see it.
I watched both series this year (2011) all episodes and seasons.
And yes they are both pretty much at the top of my list.
And that is what they have in common. They were both GREAT.
But what are you saying?

The Sopranos introduced a new way of storytelling for tv. It focused on themes and characters that had yet to be explored on tv. And of course these are crime, corruption, and a deep deep exploration into their psyche. No other show before had delved as deeply into a character's life as Sopranos. Specially that of a criminal and their family life.
After the Sopranos, there was an influx of shows that tried to copy it in one way or another, of course, most of them failed. But the door was opened regardless, and we all became a more sophisticated audience because of it. It became the new standard of what great writing, acting, and directing should be. And that is why without the Sopranos, this show doesn't exist.
Criminal elements aside, Sopranos' influence was in its storytelling. Focusing on nuance and details at its own pace. Letting the viewer really think and let things sink in, it was like watching a novel and not a tv show (or film).
Both shows share a deep character analysis, in a non-romantic role. Breaking Bad doesn't romanticize shit. It straight up shows you every character both the good and the bad, in all their flaws. All told with great directing, writing, acting, and breakdown of a criminal's life.
cant freakin' wait for sunday..!!..
