    Mr. Misha
    Didn't see anyone suggest this but Downton Abbey is an awesome series.

    Breaking bad is the best TV show I've ever watched hands down

    I never could get into that show, I watched a couple of seasons and then just gave up. I thought Walt's character was so completely amoral that I couldn't find anything likeable about him.

    I think that's the appeal- a normal good father figure who is force to adapt and change from the route he's chosen/been handed. It's the same with the walking dead if you watch that, Rick was the last person to kill unless he absolutely had to and over all the seasons he's become a hardened survivor who won't hesitate to kill. But I get what you mean, who wants to root for that kind of person?

    The clincher for me was when Walt just stood there and allowed Jesses girlfriend to die choking on her own vomit. That episode bothered me so much I just stopped watching and haven't seen another episode since.

    Yeah that's where I stopped watching also, but for me it was because I got board. Hate to hijack threads but all well: he did that sort of to help Jessie, I mean he could have done a number of things to separate them but he saw where she was dragging Jessie; getting him hooked on another drug.

    I couldn't get into breaking bad either. I just found the main character so unlikable... From episode one. He went from a wimp (not a normal guy..but a spineless character) to a "bad" guy, but just didn't have any personality. And... I couldn't suspend disbelief the plot holes were too much for me.

    Arrested development seasons 1-3 were good. The latest season... Not so much lol.

    I will have to check out Newsroom... I didn't know Sorkin had done another series that recently.

    If you like to cringe then the last man on earth is pretty good. I'll just say this: he's got the world to himself and nothing goes his way.
