Relax...I don't like your favorite show. Don't take it so personally. I've watched three and a half seasons, if you're offended I haven't watched all six maybe you should consider that a show shouldn't take six seasons to hook you in. But please, continue to insist I haven't watched it.. Losing interest is fine. I've done that with plenty of shows. I could care less what you like and don't like. You don't see me getting upset over sports. Nothing personal. If you are going to be honest so am I. Especially when you put a statement out that fans only stick around because it is zombies. Yeah, that is a retarded statement. And I stand corrected. You went longer than a few episodes. BUT...we are going on season 7. You punked out long ago. Guilty as charged on all counts. *shrug*

I'll concede that it seems you guys actually like the characters. Fine, that's fair. I personally think they're all pretty boring. Thank you. We do! Don't make us feel bad for it. *tries to hug Head even though I irritate the holy hell out of him*

It's not as consistently good as Breaking Bad. That show never missed. It has its ups and downs. Some episodes/seasons are better than others, but overall it's pretty damn good.

Don't make us feel bad for it. *tries to hug Head even though I irritate the holy hell out of him* You definitely don't irritate me, so staaaaawp. I probably deserved the minor backlash anyway, came on pretty strongly in a thread full of fans. It wasn't like I was trying to shit on y'all though. I had a Walking Dead rant on the tip of my tongue from an earlier convo with a friend and someone happened to post in this thread when I needed to get it off my chest. It was bad timing. I got nothing but love for my Deadheads.

What I really appreciated about BB was it continued to get better and better. The first two seasons, it was really solid. By the third season, it was probably the best show on TV. By the last two seasons, one of the best of all time. As the stakes got higher and Walter became more and more of a piece of shit, it just continued to elevate itself. That's what you want in a show.

Are you watching Better Call Saul? The creepy twins showed up! I just about died and went to heaven. I loved those two. BCS is no way in BB range but I'm loving that I get to see certain characters again.

" style="max-width:100%;"] Best show I've ever seen. It'a up in my pantheon with The Wire and Lost. Season 4 was perfect to me.

But eventually I'll break down and check it out. I'm curious.

I watched Season 1 of Better Call Saul on Netflix recently (I waited because I had similar reservations as a lot of fans) and it's pretty good. It puts a smile on my face every time random BB characters pop in and it's well written and acted. I recommend it, but also recommend not comparing to Breaking Bad but rather appreciating it as a simultaneous tribute to Breaking Bad as well as its own fun story.

And bell dude is walking and talking. Must be before his accident. I'm wondering if Mike had originally something to do with it. It is starting to really lay ground work for BB.

But I totally stand by my retarded statement that people only watch for zombies, because the rest is just a lame soap opera with terrible characters. Sorry for disagreeing with you. Show definitely has it's up and downs and there are times it feels like I'm watching a bad soap opera. But anything with the zombies really isn't that interesting to me anymore. Sure that was cool like the first 2 seasons, but they're in the zombie apocalypse, they're not going away and they will constantly have to deal with them and kill them, got it (unless they do something epic like in this season's premiere). I tune in to see the different interactions between the characters and groups and to see how this whole deal is gonna play out. Like this season of Rick's group infiltrating and ganking Negan's group and the repercussions of that, I dig it.
