i just finished season 4 of SOA last night. it made me say at the ending. did not expect that. now i am waiting on season 5. i have nothing to watch until then

my question is.. does breaking bad or justified compare to Sons of Anarchy? i have never watched any episode of either of these shows.

basically looking for a series to watch when i have down time at work or bored.

Breaking bad by about 10 orders of magnitude.

you will want to watch the entire season in one night.

And each season gets better.

justified is a show that got better the second half of season 1 and since then it's been gold. Not as good as BB,MM but good.

I love both SOA and BB (haven't seen Justified but I've heard good things), but BB by a mile

she compares everything to the shield.

hell, while watching SOA she kept saying "he was on The Shield".

Breaking Bad and Sons of Anarchy are both great. SOA got a little too far fetched though in S4.

Breaking Bad > Sons of Anarchy

Justified was real good. Great show. Even rewatched it recorded. SOA was good ,but, the ending and the fall of the star by his son-in-law was terrible. I did not like the last 2 shows. Now, will they patch it up or will Jaxx prevail?

They're all great, three of my favorite shows. I recommend them all, but I've never charged thru seasons of tv like Breaking Bad.

Breaking Bad is absolutely the best show ever on tv.

I loved the shield so for me justified is the one i would chose. I watched SOA and it just kinda feels like it jumped the shark. I mean how many times will the same biker gang be investigated and no one really gets put away. Opie is the best character in it and hes not the main star. Now justified has the two best main characters i seen in a show in a while. The dialogue between raylen givens and boyd crowder is superb. Also i jyst cant get over jax as a biker since i seen freaks and geeks and he had a british accent. Havent seen breaking bad in a few years but i thought malcoms dad would have died by now. Didnt he have some form of cancer that was killing him? I did like the seasons i did but i vote justified for overall characters.

This coming from a guy with a Tony Soprano avatar.

I used to think The Wire was the best, but season 4 of BB pushed it over the top for me. BB > The Wire > The Sopranos, and all three are masterpieces.
