- ONEshotONEkil630July 6, 2025Some shows are great. A few are iconic. But Breaking Bad stands in a class of its own—an unrelenting, pitch-perfect masterpiece that redefined what television could be. For me, it wasn’t just a show; it was the show. The best thing I’ve ever watched, and easily a 5/5 in every way that counts. From the very first episode, Vince Gilligan crafts a slow-burning descent that’s equal parts character study and high-stakes thriller. Walter White’s transformation from a timid chemistry teacher into the chilling, calculated Heisenberg is one of the most compelling arcs in TV history. And yet, the brilliance of Breaking Bad isn’t just in the evolution of its protagonist—it's in how every detail, from writing to cinematography to sound design, serves that transformation. Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul deliver performances so raw and authentic that they transcend fiction. Their chemistry (no pun intended) anchors the show’s emotional weight, with Paul’s portrayal of Jesse Pinkman offering a deeply human, often heartbreaking counterpoint to Walt’s spiral. The pacing is near-perfect. Each season builds tension methodically, never rushing, always earning its biggest moments. And when those moments hit—whether it’s “Ozymandias,” the box cutter scene, or the final minutes of “Felina”—they hit with a precision and impact that few shows even attempt, let alone achieve. Online, Breaking Bad is often cited as the gold standard of television drama. And rightly so. It's one of the rare series that started strong, only got better, and stuck the landing. There's not a single wasted scene. Not a single weak arc. Just immaculate storytelling, start to finish. For fans like me, it wasn’t just entertainment—it was art.
- P. LoganApril 16, 2025Truly one of the greats. What more can I say that hasn't been said better by someone else already?
- Mchamster00June 26, 2025Who doesn’t love Breaking Bad?
- The Gutter MonkeyMarch 24, 2025It's full of contrived moments and cliche characters. But I loved the characters and was thrilled by those moments.
- yvonne valdez guillenJune 25, 2025this has been one of the best shows ever put on TV .
- burtjohansonFebruary 5, 2025Stands the test of time. A product of a bygone era of television but a masterpiece of storytelling and character evolution nonetheless. This series will never lose its luster.
- Typical NerdJune 22, 2025Personally, I've never managed to be interested in any TV series, but I decided to give Breaking Bad a go since I had heard it's good. In the first season I was already hooked and throughout the whole show, each episode is constructed incredibly well to keep you ready to go into the next with just enough questions to keep you wanting to see how or if they are answered. I'd personally give it an 8/10 (or 4 stars), it's a great show that I enjoyed watching through.
- Hank MoyesFebruary 25, 2025Walter White is a bald headed ass yapper. Great show though.
- ghost0neMay 13, 2025Jesse we need to cook
- fraggle67April 20, 2025Makes a strong frontrunner for the title of Best T.V. drama of all time.
- EnderVA087June 17, 2025There was never a moment I was bored watching this.
- Jay Marie BaileyJune 14, 2025Epic series. I remember watching some episodes when they originally aired and didn't really get the hype, I do now. The journey you go on through this series is such an emotional rollercoaster, The best since The Americans. Also glad I watched Better Call Saul prior to watching this as per the timeline of events and helps explain some of the stories. Can't recommend this enough
- Hairon_p.hJune 8, 2025It's very good, but it's overrated
- AdamApril 27, 2025Nothing to say just best series of all time absolutely incredible
- Tristan HalfordMay 31, 2025Nothing more to say other than it’s the most epic series of all time!
