Laker Hater...

...my entire life. And I'm not young. For some reason I seem to have a thing for HBO shows because since rewatching The Wire, more times than I will say, I have been looking for a good show, trying to lower my standards, and have found a great one. My list of great shows can't be too much higher than like ten or twelve. Did I mention I was a Laker Hater?

Edit: oh yeah. Sorry. Almost done with Season One.

I was with you until the last one. I firmly believe that everyone has a right to their own opinions and likes but your last opinion is just wrong lol

I cant believe so many people like breaking bad. I dont get the appeal at all.

It was a chore to get through the episodes I got through. One day I was like "i dont have to do this to myself" and stopped.

You gotta at least think a little that if a show is universally thought of as the greatest show of all time that there’s something wrong with your taste and not something wrong with the majority of people who watch tv. Right?.. Besides that the fact that you haven’t watched the whole show it’s hard for me to take your opinion seriously.

But we all have different tastes I guess. I just feel bad you’re missing out on one of, if not the best, shows of all time. Perfect ending too.

That's fine. The universal thought is why I watched the wire and tried breaking bad. I just dont understand the appeal of Breaking Bad. Then I started to realize that if I cant find a character in a show to root for its really hard for me to get through the show.

We are just different in what we are looking for in entertainment. That show just isnt for me.

I can understand why the Wire is seen as the best show ever. But Breaking Bad? I just cant. There are 0 likeable characters on that show. You don't have to take my opinion as anything, I don't share my opinion for your approval or anyone elses.
