TV, my anti-drug

[tiffosaurus]

I just spent the past few weekends marathoning Breaking Bad. This show is like crack.

I love it. And I totally recommend watching it. I understand how it might not be everyone's cup of tea, I thought it wasn't mine at first, still I suggest being patient with it and reserving judgment until the season one finale because the first few episodes

Breaking Bad is definitely on my list of shows to watch. I'm hoping to catch up on it this summer before the final season debuts.

I recommend spreading it out for maximum enjoyment instead watching it in one sitting like I did lol. Take it all in! :)

I definitely don't plan on watching it in one sitting. There's still a lot of other shows besides BB that I want to catch up on so I'll be spreading it out.

Great! I wish you good luck, Stacey! :D But out of curiosity, what do you plan on watching? I'm also on the lookout for new shows. I was thinking of starting Hannibal and catching up on Community but the ratings for both shows are making me nervous. D:

Thanks!

I also chose not to start watching "Hannibal." I'm nervous about starting any new shows, especially dark dramas like that. I think the only reason I started "The Following" was because I had a feeling it might be successful. Not sure whether "Hannibal" will be coming back, but "Community" just got renewed for a 5th, and probably, final season.

I'm looking to catch up/start watching "Mad Men, 'Weeds", "The Vampire Diaries", and "Community."

OMG YES. GO COMMUNITY! I was so worried it was going to get canceled! I have to start watching S4. D:

Yeah, I might give a pass on Hannibal too. I just saw some promo pictures and...let's just say that it's very hard to gross me out but the pictures of the victims are just...ack.

How's Mad Men? I'm thinking of watching it. :)

"Mad Men" is one of the shows I haven't started yet. I'm kind of nervous about it. The praise is so overwhelming from critics and fans, I'm worried about being disappointed.

Ooh, I heard Mad Men has a pacing that's really different from a lot of shows nowadays. I'm quite excited to try it out. But I can understand why you might feel nervous! I haven't even watched the Reichenbach (?) episode of Sherlock yet, because I"m afraid all the hype has gotten to my head and I might feel nothing when I watch it. xP

[geekslave]

Don't want to add to the hype but I think the Reichenbach episode of "Sherlock was pretty good. Not as good as "A Study in Pink" or "Scandal in Belgravia" but good.

Stacey

That's good to hear! A Study in Pink is one of my favorite pilots for tv series. Ever. I guess I'll start watching Reichenbach as soon as S3 of Sherlock starts, which is probably sometime next year. Teehee, I don't want to drive myself crazy with a cliffhanger. :)

I don't blame you. But it's kind of ridiculous how long it takes in between seasons.
