Breaking Bad - I'm still not sold

I'm 8 episodes into season 2. I've watched all of it since Sunday when I started it on Netflix.
Obviously I'm enjoying it, or else I wouldn't have gotten this far this quickly. But I haven't found it to be as good as you folks describe.
At this point, The Shield is significantly better. I use that as a reference simply because neither is a premium channel show.
I'll continue watching, and hoping it gets a little better. Like I said, I am enjoying it, just not loving yet.

You having good taste - I'm still not sold

You just need to watch and judge the show on its own merits and not try to compare it with, or see if it matches/exceeds, the hype that people put on it.
There isn't really a show around that can win that game.

I'm a fan of the show and I'll say it's not as good as people say.

I did this thread last week, and I'm right there with you.
Its a good show, but I don't get the sycophantic praise for it.

It's ok to not like something. This is America. Stop watching it.

Then it's probably never going to hook you. Besides, The Shield is a really good show, too.

Well, FU then.

That's funny. I'm midway through season 3 and really enjoy it. It's pretty enthralling. I don't generally allow other people's opinions to influence my opinion of things. As with every show, there are some slow parts, but it generally picks up at a very rapid pace after...it's great. I will say you're in for a hell of a ride with season 3.

I'm with you. It is a decent show, but I don't get where it is one on the best all time. I personally think Justified is a better show than Breaking Bad, but apparently I'm in the minority on that.

Different strokes I guess. I was hooked on BB from the first episode. I know everyone says it gets better as the show progresses, and the action does pick up a lot, but my favorite seasons are the first one and the first half of season two.

The only thing that sucks more than your taste in tv, is your username originality.
Posted on 5/29/13 at 4:47 pm to TexasTiger1185
I'm exactly where you are and Its my favorite show that is currently on tv. Every episode is intense and the acting is pretty good. I'm definitely hooked.

I've been there before, people blew it up significantly. Very good show, well produced, well acted, etc., but it isn't the greatest show of all time.

It gets significantly better after some new characters and story lines, though.

BB is a show that you get addicted to but don't really like, at least for me. The characters are horrible, their lives are all miserable, and it frustrates me that they do such stupid things. But it is a good show.

The show picks up the pace every season. Come back to this thread after you finish season 4
