What's a show you've never watched and never will because people keep telling you. "You HAVE to watch it!" (hexbear.net)

I'll go first:

Breaking Bad.

I can't do it. I've seen the first season! I know what you're going to say next: oh but it gets better after the first season you HAVE to watch it.

The Walking Dead.

Can't do it. There is so much walking dead bullshit I simply can't watch it.

Battlestar Galactica.

I know its good. I've been told over and over and over again. I simply can't!

None of these shows are going to live up to the hype I can feel it in my bones.

Andor might be in that boat but I did watch it all the way through. Probably won't again. I liked it, but if you haven't seen it yet I can't imagen it lives up to the hype. Maybe a little.

Breaking Bad is not bad

[–] Kefla@hexbear.net 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The title seems to disagree with you

[–] miz@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

I love my contrarian takes but I just can't come up with many negative things to say about this show. It's just phenomenal

It's grimdark edgelord bullshit

[–] MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's grimdark edgelord bullshit

People are allowed to have opinions and such

But I really don't see how it's grimdark or "edgelord" ish at all

to me ,Berserk the manga is very "grimdark" and especially the first arc is quite edgelord-ish ,I do like it but I can understand people seeing it this way

This is the first time in my life I have heard someone describe it that way ,what makes you think it's "grimdark" ?

I watched the first three or four episodes before turning it off in disgust.

It literally opens on the main character being condemned to die. He then responds to this by spending all his time with an annoying guy he hates, endeavoring to make the world worse.

I resisted watching it for a very long time but when I finally did, I liked it. And Better Call Saul.

[–] MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Better Call Saul.

is it good ?

[–] CommunistCuddlefish@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Very. It's quite sad but not as bleak as Breaking Bad.

Would recommend watching the movie El Camino first, which picks up Jesse's story right after Breaking Bad.
