    An amazing series, possibly the best I've seen.
    Put aside the emotional roller coaster, the action, drama, violence, diverse characters and all underlining themes, the producers of the show always left you hanging with little glimpses into the future and always managed to fill in the 'gaps' with the wonderful use of flashbacks.
    The soundtrack to the entire series was brilliant and always complimented the unfolding drama onscreen.

    Shows like 'Breaking Bad' and 'Game of Thrones' are really raising the bar for small screen entertainment, much like the 'Sopranos' did all those years ago, I just hope we don't have to wait as long before the next 'gem' is unearthed...

    Brilliant series!
    I just read this.
    I can't think of the ending without that "blue" song invading my mind.
    I still rate it the best TV show I have seen.

        Of all the brilliant music in BB across the entire series, the absolute standout track for me was in the scene where Gustavo walks towards the nursing home to kill Hector.
        The soundtrack to that scene still sends a shiver down my spine, a beautifully haunting piece by a German electronic muso going by the stage name Apparat...and the aptly named score was called "Goodbye"...

            I watched the 1st series of True Detective earlier this year. It's fantastic, and I'd recommend it if you're into an unusual tale of crime and drama. Each season will also be an entirely different story, which keeps things fresh.

            Lately I've only really been watching GoT and Bates motel. Other than that, I catch a few episodes of the Regular show and Adventure Time (both cartoons) fairly often, which provides some easy viewing. Some of you here may enjoy the show Archer as well. Again, a cartoon, but targeted at an adult audience.

              Archer is hilarious.
              Strangely, the black chick excites me.

                I have to say "Rake" is a bit of a guilty pleasure.
                Though I'm convinced the USA version will be a failure.

                  I just listened to it. Well defined at "beautifully haunting".
                  I still have an ache after the end of this show!

                      Totally catchy.

                      Heads up for a show called Fargo. Seems to have a devoted fan base. I haven't watched it yet but its next on the agenda.

                        I would recommend everyone to start watching Game of Thrones. This TV series is crazy good.

                        If you havent seen Godzilla I recommend it. I gave it a 8/10. I really didnt care for the human element story line ( Apart for Bryan Cranston) and I wanted more Godzilla on screen, but it is way better than that stupid 1998 Godzilla film done in New York. I give a 2/10.

                          Godzilla will be the go next.

                            While zapping in Greek TV I suddenly fall on Lucy Liu and this guy analysing the name dispute (in a not Greek manner may I say). After a search it seems that this series (an American modern-day version of Sherlock Holms with a female Dr Watson) has a whole episode where the plot is related to the name dispute (I won't reveal the plot). If anyone's interested or watches the show this is Season 1, Episode 24.

                              I watched Godzilla on blu ray the other night for the first time...
                              I enjoyed the special effects, particularly the audio effects in a home theatre environment.

                              At the moment, I'm working my way through S2 of 'House of Cards' (highly recommended) and S7 of 'Sons of Anarchy'

                                I think I've seen that episode, came across it by accident...haven't seen any other episodes of the series.
