Any advice on which to continue?

Both is my answer

But for you, as you said you are on season 3 of BB, if you don't like it by now, don't bother, I was hooked from the first scene of episode one of season 1.
Walking dead is another amazing show, I am still trying to find the last 3 episodes online since I have not seen them yet


Don't watch a show if you don't like it just because other people like it

I think Breaking Bad is infinitely better than the Walking Dead, but if you aren't hooked after three season maybe it isn't for you.

Walking Dead quickly goes bad after the first episode. Season 2 is especially bad.

Yep, Walking Dead is pretty much a guilty pleasure type show while BB has been well recognized for excellence in both writing and acting. I watch both.

Walking dead is a good show. It's a little slow at times, but it still holds a good line.

Well one show has only 19 episodes. The other is working on its fifth season.

One had problems with the creative team and did its best to fix it without scraping the whole show. The other, from what I understand through interviews with the cast, things have always ran smoothly.

One show has to create a world. The other is a show about what happens in your neighbor's back yard shed.

Don't try to compare the two. But what both it's not like someone is stopping you.

Coming from someone who watched the entire first season of TWD in one day, it's gotten idiotic lately. It's almost on the level of Shaun of the Dead where I can't tell if it's a parody or not.

If you've only watched one episode of season 3 with Breaking Bad you should continue. The last two seasons have been amazing, maybe the best consecutive seasons of TV I have ever seen.

So stick with BB

BB is way better than Walking Dead. I like them both, but lets be real... Walking Dead is like a soap opera at times.

Anyone who criticizes the walking dead for "being slow" is missing the bigger picture. Obviously they want constant action like they expect from a Zombie movie. This isn't going to happen, they would burn through their material way to fast.

They are always going to have places they stay that seem safe and slow ie Hershels Farm, the Prison, Alexandria. If they fought Zombie's every day it would just be an overly long zombie movie anthology. The show/comic aren't about the zombies it is about the group dynamic in a world overran by Zombies.

Season 2 survived a crew change successfully and if you haven't seen the last 3/4 episodes of it then you are missing the whole point. They (and us watching) were supposed to get comfortable with the idea of the farm. That way when they have to abandon it we feel their loss as well.

Rick finally becomes the badass leader that Shane said he wasn't. Walter hasn't really evolved on Breaking Bad. Its still teacher with terminal cancer (who isn't dead after 5 seasons?) is a meth dealer.

Rick has evolved from a beta male and ineffective cop to a true leader for the group. From being the one to step forward and get rid of Sophia to tricking Shane and killing him to his comment about how the group wasn't a democracy anymore. Rick has consolidated his power.
