LoadingReadyRun: Badly Broken

Spoiler: I'm surprised no one posted this yet

Excellent, now that the series is over, I can finally start watching it.

 

[Voulan]

I'm also going to come out and say that I haven't watched either Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. Actually, and while I'm at it, I don't care for nor watch Dr. Who either.

That felt good.

Watched Breaking Bad. Loved Breaking Bad, but still found this epically hilarious, as I've had the same problems since I don't watch Game of Thrones of The Walking Dead.

I didn't even know Game of Thrones of The Walking Dead was a show. Sounds interesting, I'll get around to it, but first I got to watch Game of the Dead and Walking Thrones.

DOH!! Ooh boy that was one bad typo. I'm leaving it though as it's hilarious.

You know if there isn't a show called Game of Thrones of The Walking Dead there sure as hell should be.

 

[Extra-Ordinary]

As someone who does watch Breaking Bad (and absolutely loves it) I got tired of the "Malcolm's dad is Walter White in witness protection" joke too.
And when people bring up shows I don't watch (a la Doctor Who, Walking Dead, Game of Thrones) I usually just keep quiet, let them have their fun.

I'm over forty so I never gave a shite. Same for game of thrones, walking dead, lost, fire fly, the wire, Buffy...blah, blah, blah. Feel the same about games like GTA, red dead, saints row, res evil... I will do what I want to do and enjoy what I want to enjoy is that ok? Nice. Nerds are the most fascistic people I have ever met.

 

[Noswad]

Oh my god, there are others, this is amazing, i never watched Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, the wire, Walking Dead or Lost, i thought i was the only one. Its just easier to pretend, the strange thing is i actually watch a lot of TV, i just can't bring myself to care about any of these shows. The stuff i do watch is usually old enough for no-one to really care about any more, Star Trek, Buffy, Andromeda, The X files that kind of thing, i think the fact that a lot off people get excited about it actually puts me off a little bit.

This video is about me.

Except the pretending to watch Breaking Bad part.

 

[Farther than stars]

I wouldn't say that's entirely fair. You need to judge a show on its own merits, not by the similarities with its contemporaries. And for what it's worth, I'd say 'Breaking Bad' is set apart from the rest by really taking a close look at what it is to become a "morally bankrupt anti-hero". It's a character examination quite a lot like 'Dexter', in that it focuses more on the main character arc than the surrounding events.

Although unlike Dexter, the Breaking Bad writers at least know how to string a decent plot together.

Yeah, that's probably true, although that did mean that you could guess the ending to Breaking Bad from a mile away. Literally nothing that happened in that last episode (apart from the Schwartzes) was any surprise at all.

I watched all of Season One, but stopped at Season Two. It just started to get too depressing.

If you found season 2 too depressing, that was probably a good call on your part. Show gets so brutal at the end.

 

[WarHamster40K]

Over the last month, I've been going through the streaming queue in NetFlix, and was able to get partway through season 5 before the finale happened. Now that it's completed, I don't feel rushed anymore. I'm caught up "enough" so that I can stumble through conversations and, if worse comes to worse, TVTropes can fill in the blanks.

With that said, swap out Breaking Bad with any sports team, and that's how I feel at work. At least nowadays, people can substitute it for about half a dozen TV shows at just about any time and people won't blink about it.

 

[Callate]

Oh, thank God. I'm not the only one.

(It's on the list, but... Y'know. Things.)

Also, please continue wearing pants.

This is the good thing about the Internet; if you think you're alone, you're not.

It's a peculiar type of alone though, in that people tend to speak up when they can relate to a topic. But if you can't...

Spoiler: evidence

I watched every episode of Breaking Bad.

I feel, very, very alone in this thread.

Been here since season one, which is difficult as it's airing scheduled in the UK was pretty much non-existent. Five USA aired season one but i had to wait until the DVD of season two to see it. Since then I've simply had to download each season as it came out.

I know it's kind of become a bit of a TV watchers myth/ collective joke but season 1 and 2 were just as rough and raw but even more grounded in grim reality than the later seasons.

On that note, I ALSO have not seen Breaking Bad.

 

[blackrave]

What is Breaking Bed?

 

[ManiacEskimo]

This is exactly how I feel about most nintendo games and characters. The amount people obsess over them can be disturbing.

I loved Breaking Bad though, great show that genuinely deserves most of its praise, but I don't obsess over it.

 

[Olas]

Great episode, another classic Loading Ready...

If their kickstarter gets $170,000 I won't wear pants all year, NO PANTS NO RULES!

None of us watch breaking bad

How can you call yourself a member or the no-pants movement and then reject it's leading proponent.

Surely Kathleen is our leader.

I started watching it a year ago, got through the first 4-5 episodes. Then my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Suddenly the show was making me very uncomfortable and I never got back to it...
