Watched Breaking Bad last month

Part of my using early starts with baby to catch up on top, top TV I've never seen programme.

Watched it immediately after finishing The Wire and thought it was nowhere near as good as it! The first two series in particular I thought were 7/10 at best. Might be because The Wire was so good! Series 3 and 5 of Breaking Bad were brilliant though.

The Sopranos I'd put above both, although I really need to rewatch it. A lot more "heart" and great characters in Sopranos.
