has it surpassed Breaking Bad as TD's best show on AMC or any other network?

Best thing I have seen since Breaking Bad was Fargo.



yep, agree on Fargo.

Better Call Saul is proving to be a great show too

Overall, IMO, Breaking Bad was the superior show. But I do love Walking Dead.

Let me say, I'm glad I get a 6 month break from TWD every year. Why? Because to me, it is so dark and at times depressing.

I'm ready for a change of pace on Sunday nights for awhile.

Every time I'm ready to give walking dead the benefit of the doubt, the writers show their limitations like killing a character solely for shock effect (ie the end of season 5 part 1).

Independence day is more 'entertaining' than Schindlers list, that doesn't make it a better movie... Unless you are a preteen


That is why I used the word entertaining. Stop being so mad man. Walking Dead destroys everything in ratings in the 18-49 male demographic, including Breaking Bad. Nothing to do with 12 year olds.

Spoilers

























If Noah and Beth's deaths would have been reversed and Glenn had to watch Beth go, as did the audience in the way he died..it would have been more of a powerful and meaningful scene. Noah should've been capped in the hospital.

Breaking Bad is overrated. Walking Dead is much better.
People who compare BB to The Wire are a joke.

I don't think TWD is anywhere close to being in the same arena as Breaking Bad. It is entertaining though.

S1-S3 were pretty rough at times imo. I stopped watching TWD for a little over a year. Then binge watched S4-5 over the past two weeks. The show has definitely picked up the intensity. But I definitely wouldn't put it on the same level as BrBa or Mad Men.

Just look at the hype it gets on this board as one of the best tv shows ever. It's good, but not as good as people make it out to be. It's unrealistic and often comes across as campy and like a dark comic book. Maybe I just prefer something more realistic like The Wire. Maybe the entire world sucking it off leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Idk, but I'm not nearly as impressed with it now as when it was on tv.

I loved breaking bad. I enjoy TWD, but I was not interested in mad Men. I would watched 4 episodes but too boring

Don't think so; BB is considered by many as the greatest TV programming in history...that's a high mountain to climb.

As for Mad Men, I know it has had a great following, but I could never get into it.

BCS has had a solid 1st season and has the potential to make waves; it's not even to close to TWD...not yet.
