I watching the Breaking Bad Marathon on AMC.

Never watched an episode before but I will give it a chance.

So far it is the second episode.

I don't know if I like it or not but I have nothing else to do the week or weekend.

Glad I caught the first episode.

Pass the popcorn and sandwiches.

Sometimes you have to be ready for a show to like it.

I have a meeting in the morning but I will be back as soon as possible.

I need a break before next week starts.

I like having all the shows to watch.

And the smelly house to deal with.

Next week will seem like a walk in the park.

Good acting so far.

The acid scene was something else.

I am so into The Walking Dead it didn't even bother me.

Walter is sitting with the head of the task force having lunch, that is so cool.

I like twists and turns.

After the Walking Dead, nothing can shock me.

I could kill a zombie now without a gun.

I watched a lot of the old western Have Gun Will Travel.

I have dropped Netflix for awhile.

I need to do things off the computer.

I had no control over the need to watch one more episode or show.

It is like a drug.

No more Netflix for me.

I did discover a lot of great movies, and tv shows.

Just put the mouse down, turn of the computer and go outside for a walk.

I know this is not easy.

It didn't work for me.

I just had to walk away, it has been almost a year.

Yes, I still miss it.

I do understand people who smoke and can't stop.

Hi,
I hope you enjoy it. I have watched it through the years and I think I will have to watch the whole series again after the series ends. There was a point I got rather confused during one season not knowing what the heck was going on.


I'm currently giving American Horror Story a try, I think the critics like it, it is not working for me thus far, but I will watch the full first season.

Peace

I watched all the episodes in one weekend.

Except for the Walking Dead, I haven't had the ability to watch the show every week.

I need a break from life for the next few days, next week will be stressful.

I will get lost with Breaking Bad.

I don't know what it was about the show.

It didn't hold my attention at all.

I am still watching Breaking Bad, so far so good.

It takes awhile to stop seeying Hal, from the other tv show he was on.

I am wondering that also.

Time will tell.

If a show can keep me for up to 3 episodes that is good.

Imho, it's truly the best show in tv history. The writing and acting are brilliant. I hope other writers take note and up their game. I'm truly going to miss this show

Now it is just Breaking Bad time.

I have a lot of them recorded on the dvr, just cut out out the commercials.

Won't be getting much sleep but that is Ok.

I have all the goodies I wanted from the grocery stores.

Not going anywheres.
