>heres that gritty, grounded, realistic crime drama you were asking about

It was baby's first drama that just came out at the right time as social media was taking off and also it was boosted/astroturfed by Netflix. It was a Z-list show before these two planets aligned. People back then only cared about The Sopranos and The Shield.

>DUDE IT'S LIKE THE TEDDY BEAR FROM THE PLANE CRASH

>>212202726
Both of those are way better than Breaking Bad

>>212202671 (OP)
Shows can be theatrical at certain moments and I don't know why this is such a goddamn problem. By the way I never cared much for this show and didn't finish it, but there is nothing wrong with this kind of thing unless you are the kind of hyper autistic that there is no help at all for.

>>212202671 (OP)
imagine if Sopranos did some capeslop shit like this kek.

>>212202671 (OP)
It was never gritty.

>>212202671 (OP)
Breaking Bad is a black comedy at its heart.

Idk, people survive getting shot in the head all the time. I guess it’s just adrenaline keeping him alive a couple seconds longer. Ya it’s cartoonish but it’s not like his head got blown off

>>212202671 (OP)
In hindsight Breaking Bad was pretty fucking shit sometimes

>>212202846
Like a Russian guy walking off a gunshot to the head and driving away in Paulie's car?

>>212202671 (OP)
>Vince unironically confirmed Breaking Bad takes place in the Walking Dead world and this is part of it
>Daryl in Walking Dead also talks about Jessie Pinkman and the blue shit from Alberqurque

>>212202769
Agreed. Especially The Shield. Nothing before or since has come close to matching its greatness.

>>212202974
Exactly. Sopranos would never do something retarded like that, jeet.

HELL YEAH, SCIENCE BITCH

>>212203102
>Daryl in Walking Dead also talks about Jessie Pinkman and the blue shit from Alberqurque
that was roughly in season 2 or season 3 right?

>>212202671 (OP)
American TV is pretty much non animated anime, next time you shit on Bleach I know this is the shit you guys watch, I at least get to pog at BANKAI while all you guys get is this

>>212202846
remember tony realising his friend was a snitch because of a talking fish?

frunk

breaking bad is peak reddit and anyone here who ever liked it and tries to argue against the truth I have just typed is a fag

>>212202956
How is he walking? If the explosion took out that much of his face what should it have reasonably done to his legs given where the bomb was planted?

>>212202671 (OP)
That red shit in his eye socket looks fucking gross.

>>212203573
All it did was confirm his first instinct back in season 1 that it was Pussy, not Jimmy. There were lots of indications, it wasn't just, "Tony dreamed of a fish."

>>212203118
Rewatching it yet again. Fucking kino.

>>212202671 (OP)
It happens really fast on screen. Like less than a second. He didn't stand there and do a jitterbug or shout out a catchphrase. I got tired of fan service bullshit on Breaking Bad and them putting in little things for the internet fandom, but this wasn't that bad. These little things bug me a lot more on rewatch than the first go-through.

I do think this kind of bullshit and the "Science Bitch!" type fan service keep it from being the very best of the best shows like The Sopranos or The Wire, though. They didn't pull cheap stunts like this.

>>212202671 (OP)
>conveniently ignores that the show has a constant undercurrent of dark comedy

>>212204133
I was laughing my ass off when Jane choked to death on her own vomit

peak kino, peak soul. Vince, I kneel.

>>212204182
Every time Mouzone gets brought up anons act surprised. Have you fuckers ever met any Nation of Islam guys? They're practically exactly like this. The Shield has an episode on them too but nobody says boo about that.

>>212204175
have you been diagnosed for autism?

>>212202846
Did we ever find out how the spooky medium knew specific details about people Paulie Walnuts killed? There are episodes of the X-Files less far out than that scene.

>>212204397
The retarded part is everyone acting like Mouzone is some one man army nigger in a setting where people drop dead like flies from being shot in the head out of nowhere.

>>212204476
have you?

>>212204509
>why would people be afraid of a ruthless professional?
Same reason they were afraid of Omar dumbass

>>212204509
he works out at the library though

>>212204574
And Omar would have been killed far sooner, your point retard?

>>212204601
Just like the guy he was based off of? The one that is still alive. Do you watch Tombstone and go
>durrr why don't the cowboys just shoot Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp?!

>>212204574
Omar being a literal boogeyman that people run from on the streets in fear and horror is also pretty silly, which was that anon's point

>>212202671 (OP)
People have survived worse trauma than that for short periods and even done some very mundane things like try to make a meal or read the newspaper before dying.

>>212204655
Dealers rarely, if ever, carry weapons. That's an extra charge you can't get out of, even coons can't beat that shit in modern day.

>>212204655
>it's silly that undisciplined street thugs are afraid of professional well prepared guns with a reputation spanning years
No, what's silly are the fucking Twins from Breaking Bad or Lalo

>>212204651
A setting full of low impulse, low iq violent thugs means there is no such thing as an aura of invincibility, because it takes literally one stupid negro to shoot you for your sneakers. Omar and Mouzone were the worst characters because their attitude would have them killed immediately

>b-buh what about

Real negros who live long enough to tell the tale don't act like negros in the Wire

>>212204651
he's based on like five different people, though one did do that window fall

>>212203268

I don't get it

An explosion that big should have killed/seriously injured everyone in the room from just the pressure wave alone.

>>212202769
>>212203118
The Shield is shitlib propaganda

>>212204397
Also the nation of Islam guys deciding to post up at the barn indefinitely and then disappearing from the plot completely the next episode lol

>>212202765
Guarantee this never once crossed Vince's mind.

>>212204765
I'll meet you halfway and say despite the unrealistic character elements of Omar and Mouzone they're still a lot more grounded compared to a show like BrBa

Why does /tv/ pretend to hate Breaking Bad now?

>>212205112
>pretend
BCS was superior in every way until Chuck died

>>212205112
It's become overrated. It was fun and a good show, but it's talked about as if it was one of the best shows ever, and it wasn't. It had a lot of flaws.

>>212204765
The most egregious part of Lalo's character was how he was able to board a plane to Germany.

>>212205223
BCS was utter boring dogshit until Chuck died.

>>212205551
>Hey Lalo, how are you going to get to Gus through his body guards, body doubles and meticulous planning?
>I'm just going to shoot them in two seconds at a place they're expecting me to be
They really gave up in the last season

>>212202671 (OP)
He inmediately dies in that scene. You've never seen burnt people in Liveleak walking around in shock without knowing they're seconds away from Heaven?

>>212205668
Lalo was always a shit character that didn't belong in a show like BCS, people who liked him are the same retards who clapped for >>212203268

Breaking Bad was always a silly show

>>212204497
>Did we ever find out how the spooky medium knew specific details about people Paulie Walnuts killed?
In real life a lot of psychics are employed by the FBI, and equipped with dossiers of personal information.
I always just assumed it was that.

This thread with the exact same replies was posted not long ago. Fuck botfags

>>212203102
>>Vince unironically confirmed Breaking Bad takes place in the Walking Dead world and this is part of it
I vaguely remember hearing that the TV where a desperate Walter White tries to phonecall his son near the end of the show says something about a zombie apocalypse but I've never been able to spot the magic frame that confirms this.
Clip?
>>Daryl in Walking Dead also talks about Jessie Pinkman and the blue shit from Alberqurque
Someone clip this too since I don't watch TWD.

>realistic
lol who the fuck claimed that?

>>212206531
Really? Archive link?

I suppose they're cranking out fake threads to sustain the illusion of website activity.

Every year this site gets worse.

In America? You have the right to bare arms as long as you're not in Commiefornia.
What the fuck?!

>>212202671 (OP)
Never, not once have I ever heard anyone call Breaking Bad "realistic".

>>212202671 (OP)
Insane things can happen when close to death, in real life. Its not like half his brain is missing (even that people can survive)
Its really not far fetched that he was semi-functional for 10 seconds before finally dying. He may not even been conscious

>>212206730
Committing a crime with something even resembling a firearm turns probation into years in prison on the spot. Drug offenses, especially in small amounts, get waved out of court depending on the district. Smart criminals will minimalize risk. The stupid ones get handed the gun and either die or get the prison time.

>>212205112
>now
>>212205223
I found it strange that in BCS threads everyone would insist that BCS was superior to Breaking Bad, but I think the real reason is Breaking Chads had just checked out of the conversation and once both shows hit their finale and were equally topical, Breaking Chads came out of the woodwork in higher numbers.

Anyway, Breaking Bad is a well written apolitical show from circa 2010, but since 4chud is full of 90's kids who give older old shit an artificial boost and Wire, Shield and Sopranos lay the nigger word on a little thicker, they are funnier to quote in a shitpost.

>>212205736
>You've never seen burnt people in Liveleak walking around in shock without knowing they're seconds away from Heaven?
No. Link or it didn't happen.

>>212202671 (OP)
a nice TV series but also a extremely overrated TV series

>>212202671 (OP)

He's wetback Harvey Dent

>>212202671 (OP)
Breaking Bad took off because it was constantly tense and suspenseful, had a lot of twists and unexpected turns, and actually killed off main characters. A lot of shows in the genre don't do any of these things, let alone all three.

>>212204779
Explosions are like punches, hurts more when you don't know it's coming

>>212202671 (OP)
Its actually possible. In fallaugh

>>212206730
Especially in America.
>not carry a gun, get caught with 5 kilos of pot, get probation and a slap on the wrist
>carry a gun, get caught with 5 kilos of pot, get 25 years in pound town federal pen
Not a hard choice.

>>212202726
the only thing I cared about was smashing your fucking face in incel

There's a directing and visual style in Breaking Bad, amplified even more in Better Call Saul, that I find very ugly and unpleasant. The script is criticised more commonly but I find it to be one of the worst examples of a failed movie director indulging himself in a tv gig, during a time when "cinematic televsion" was all the rage.
It's "Look, Mom, I'm directing!!" all the way through and it never ever lets up
