What's the appeal of this show?

My sister bought me the box set from Christmas and I've only just got around to watching it. I was quite hyped as the reviews are overwhelmingly good, but I found it bad, soap opera bad. A show more interested in cliffhangers, silly contrived plot, annoying catchphrases and le ebin cinematic moments that make no sense, than actual coherent, sensible character building and solid story lines.

Am I just a pleb?

I didn't feel that way about season one, and maybe even season two. After that though, the show blew up and they must definitely were interested in nothing else but pandering to the fans, no matter stay the cost.
>>
>>70367566
You're absolutely right, Breaking Bad is the most overrated TV series ever made, mediocre at best.
>>
>>70367566
You're a legit pleb. Ive never actually meant that until i saw your post.

My wife's son loves it

Yes, only plebs dislike Breaking Bad. This is scientific fact.

Pleb and proud then, I guess.

Can you tell me why you liked it?
>>
I did feel when it turned really dark in S5 with Todd and his chums, it would pay off with a great finale.

But it was just Walter doing his fucking MacGyver impression and a complete cop-out.

>Am I just a pleb?

Yes, BB has some of the best acting, character development, cinematography, and plotlines of all time

This. At least the last season wraps things up nicely. The show as a whole was chore.
>>
>>70369822
>The show as a whole was chore.
It definitely is. I forced myself to watch the whole series just so my friend would stop fucking nagging me about it

agreed, only likeable character was saul, and there were too many goddamn characters that made you wanna turn it off

muh edgy meth show

>>70367566
Its quite good and I don't understand why it isn't more popular on 4chan considering how much nu males are hated on here.

Walt didn't wanna be the pussy society wanted him to be so he acted out.

I would expect him to be hailed as a hero/role model on here but the need to pretend to be smart by disliking popular things is just too strong I guess.

>I don't understand why it isn't more popular on 4chan

Seriously? This show was all this board used to talk about when it was on.
>>
>>70367566
I hope you showed your sister appreciation for it and thanked her.
>>
>>70372398
Yea but in the same
>lel only plebs like this
Way

But I guess thats what they do with GoT now, though GoT deserves it to an extent cause they have done some stupid things.

BB was well written and well acted for the most part and all you see are

I loved it until [tv] told me otherwise

this desu

I don't think BB is bad or anything, it's a decent show but the hyperbole its legion of fans spout, how they won't shut up about how it's the greatest show ever made, fucking jesus

Is it really so surprising that there's backlash?
>>
>>70367566
It's a great show. /tv/ contrarian try hards hate it.

It's not the best show ever, but it's top 10 for sure. Enjoy it for what it's worth. Seasons 2-4 are top tier comfy
>>
>>70372728
>it's top 10 for sure
fuck no
>>
>>70372716
I understand being frustrated with people who act like its the second coming of Christ but its also stupid to completely dismiss it.

The show was good and had an interesting plot/good acting and dealt with issues shows usually aren't made about.
>>
>>70372602
That literally happens with any popular show.
