Now that the dust has settled, where does this rank in television history?
>>
Joint 2nd with the sopranos behind Fargo.
>>
>>71232809
386th
>>
>>71232809
top 100, but no higher
>>
>>71232809
Below The Wire and The Sopranos

And Mad Men
>>
>>71232809
1-4 are top 10

but if you include 5 it's only top 100
>>
>>71232914
>Le wire is good meme
>>
>>71232909
so, exactly 100th?
>>
>>71232909
>And
So it's ranked 100. Give me 30 better shows.
>>
>>71232809
It was a great commentary on American society for the first 2 seasons and then it went full retard to appease said society.
>>
>>71232809
Its better than GoT for sure but worse than other shows like TD.
>>
>>71232954
no, as in somewhere in the 51-100 range
>>
>>71232809

Top Five
>>
>>71233007
But that would be no higher than top 50 but no lower than top 100, anon.
>>
>>71232836
>>71232939
>>71233025

>All this BB positivity

Wha-where am I?
>>
>tfw no one includes SFU in these threads

w-why ;_;
>>
>>71233028
Which is what I meant, but I didn't think before posting
>>
If we're limiting it to dramas then it's the best. If we're including documentaries, comedies, panel shows, game shows, reality shows etc. then it's somewhere around 6th.
>>
There are elements that are god-tier and have not been matched in television, but the show as a whole doesn't hold up well. If you go back and rewatch all 5 seasons, you will see that about 60% amounts to Walt bickering with his cuntbag wife Skyler and side story arcs about the family that literally no one gives a shit. About half of each show amounts to soap-opera-tier garbage.
>>
>>71233007
I would be surprised if you could name 50 shows better than Breaking Bad
>>
>>71232809

Mid-tier with shit like Hannibal, Walking Dead, etc
>>
>>71233280
I agree. It is top 20, top 10 perhaps. But best show ever? KEKNo
>>
>>71233375
>lumping Hannibal in with TWD

nah

Number 2
Right behind the wire
Number 3 is Fargo
>>
>>71232809
History is over?
>>
>>71233458

It was the same weird American gore porn that god forbid has swearing or nudity in it.
>>
>>71233280
The problem with such a request is that if I did, which I could, you and other BBfags would just shoot down 99% of them

>HAHA YOU THINK THAT IS BETTER THAN BREAKING BAD YOU HIPSTER PLEB FAGGOT

I'd rather not go down that road, so I respectfully decline
>>
>>71233554
It's not the show's fault for the network's boundaries. I agree the show would have been way better on HBO or something but given the constraints they had I thought Hannibal was amazing.
>>
>>71232809
Every single character in this show is either obnoxious or a dick in some way, except maybe for Walts retarded son, but he's retarded so who cares about him. It isn't very appealing to watch a show about characters like these, in a comedy show like Always Sunny it's very funny, but in a drama I can't really stand it. I guess people just like it for the action and suspense.

In direction i'd say it among the best.
In writing? Not even top 10.
>>
You think Arrested Development is better than Breaking Bad??
The cinematography alone puts it above Arrested Development.

But I will give you the Twilight Zone, that's some good shit

Summerfags

>>71233768
I disagree, but I can see how you could prefer those shows. Thanks anon.
>>
why were there tits only in the pilot and never again?

why did they censor the 'fuck you' note?
>>
>>71232809
Rome is better.
>>
>>71234205
I wasn't complaining about it though. The show was good.
>>
>>71234659
I like the show too, but I am positive the sudden appraisal of BB is due to the influx of summer posters.
