07.07.11 | I really don't know what it is with Hank, he is pretty badass in action scenes, but he also pisses me off more often than most characters. |
ButcheredChildren
07.07.11 | I would place Jesse higher (maybe as 4), Saul as 5, and Walter as #1 because I really like him but other than that I agree with this ranking. |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | I should probably mention there are some spoiler alerts in this list lol |
Sanders
07.07.11 | I fucking love this show, I wish it got more recognition in the UK. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | Other than Dexter himself, this character is the most intriguing person I've ever watched in a show
Holy shit watch more TV. Gustavo is a badass character but Walt is by far the best |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | So, do you just mean watch Breaking Bad more until I like Walt? Didn't really offer me another show. |
TMobotron
07.07.11 | Yeah Walt is BY FAR the best IMO. And Jesse below Skylar? Watch the Wire I guess. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | Dale Cooper my friend, Dale Cooper |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | Yeah Walt is BY FAR the best IMO. And Jesse below Skylar? Watch the Wire I guess.
I heard that's basically the best show that's ever been on TV in recent history lol but soooo many seasons. |
Sanders
07.07.11 | Check out series 1 of Luther (UK cop drama), pretty badass. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | The Wire has more "intriguing" characters than the number of items on this list. |
Sanders
07.07.11 | I've heard The Wire is phenomenal once it gets going, but I couldn't make it past two episodes, I struggle to much with the accents, and I'm English. I need to give it another go though, I have them all ready to watch.
Also, Band of Brothers. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | Dude, try to watch it, it really is THAT good, trust me. Band of Brothers is phenomenal too. |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | @fsharp: Oh I've heard of "Twin Peaks", I'll check it out I guess |
TMobotron
07.07.11 | @pwalcher, there's only 5 seasons, and none of them are shit like season 5 of dexter was. Plus you'll probably wish there were way more seasons when your'e done. And yeah Twin Peaks is awesome, Dale Cooper fucking rules. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | I would also highly recommend Deadwood. Al Swearengen is just one of the best characters ever. |
Sanders
07.07.11 | @fsharp, Yeah, I've never heard a bad word said about it. Looks like my summer is sorted!
Edit: The Wire, not Deadwood, although I've heard that's awesome too. Goddamn, too much good stuff to
watch. |
Satellite
07.07.11 | yesterday i was thinking about ranking mad men characters for my next list |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | Fuck I spent May-June last summer watching lost from beginning to end. That show had it good parts but for the most part I kinda regret watching all those 120 hours for that mediocre ending. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | Lost is the most overrated fucking show in television history. Mad Men is pretty awesome but there's never ever been a show like Breaking Bad |
psykonaut
07.07.11 | badger is the best character. |
Satellite
07.07.11 | lost rules
i mean it's not groundbreaking art or anything but for pure escapist entertainment it's fucking perfect imo |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | badger is the best character.
yeah but the other guy peter with the toque is such a joke of a character. I shoulda put those fuckers on here, oh well... |
fsharptrit0ne
07.07.11 | Actually it is pretty groundbreaking for primetime tbh. The writing in that show gets soooo awful though. Many plot holes |
Ovrot
07.07.11 | i just started watching this show.
shit rules bro |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | It's one of the easiest shows to get into cuz there are only 33 episodes in all, the seasons are so short, season 1 had like 7 episodes, it's fucked but soooo good |
Sanders
07.07.11 | I'm going to have to rewatch it all before the new series starts now. |
pwalcher
07.07.11 | Yeah Sanders I hate to break it to you but you probably will have to go do that. |
MagmaWalrus
07.07.11 | Jesse is awesome, yeah he's pretty stupid sometimes but his character develops and he actually turns out to be a really good guy rather than the some punk drug dealer like he seems to be at the start. |
andrikos
07.08.11 | Great list! Man, I hate Skylar. She was pretty bad in deadwood too (Bullock's sister in law/wife)
To all who haven't watched "The Wire" PLEASE do! You'll thank me. Well, ok, you'll thank the creators of the show. ;)
My only advice to watching the show is: PUT THE SUBTITLES ON!!!!!! Otherwise you'll miss 70% of the depth of the show. |
Trebor17
07.09.11 | I finally started watching this show
It's amazing |
south_of_heaven 11
07.09.11 | best show on TV hands down |
acorncheese
07.09.11 | Good list idea, awful rankings tbh. Can't take it seriously after reading that you think Dexter is one of the most interesting
characters you've seen on TV. Dexter is one of the emptiest and most boring characters I've ever seen. (not in a "the writers made
him that way" kind, either). there's just nothing to the character. but on the contrary, gus really is an intriguing character. hank
needs to be MUCH higher. he's surprisingly very multi-dimensional. |
Trebor17
07.09.11 | The pilot is the greatest pilot I've seen since the Arrested Development pilot |
pwalcher
07.10.11 | Man that first scene of breaking bad was one of a very few "wtf moments" ive had watching a tv show, you just can't watch that scene without wanting to watch everything
another moment i had that happen was the way season 4 of dexter ended, holy shit i never expected that |
Apollo
07.10.11 | Disagree with Hank but your rating is pretty much spot on. I've been in love and awe of this show since the first episode aired on AMC. Easily my favorite television show ever. |
pwalcher
07.17.11 | well..today's the day!!! |
psykonaut
07.17.11 | so stoked omfg |
ILJ
10.22.11 | Can't believe I just now found this list. I agree with this completely. Show is the best. I don't think the fifth season of Dexter was total shit, I liked the Dexter and Lumen story (because I'm a sucker for romance) but it just had so many fucking holes and was too much of a stretch to be plausible. |
foxblood
10.22.11 | interesting list. never noticed it either. jesse is definitely the best character though |
HBFS
10.22.11 | finale of season 4 was fucking awesome |
ILJ
10.22.11 | I haven't gotten to it yet. I've been streaming it off a website because i don't have access to AMC in my dorm. I still have 6 episodes left. It sucks they're ending it next year. |
Kris.
10.22.11 | fucking hate skylar so much such a bitch hope she dies in the 5th season |
HBFS
10.22.11 | yeah, fuck skylar. hanks gonna figure everything out about walt in season 5 |
Trebor17
10.22.11 | They should merge Breaking Bad with Walking Dead and have zombie Gus |
ILJ
10.22.11 | That would be crazy. |
HBFS
10.22.11 | hahaha that would rule. the walking dead is awesome as well |
ILJ
10.22.11 | Soooooooooo good. Although it's hard to not feel sad and hopeless after watching it. Especially after they turn a happy part into a tragic cliffhanger like at the end of the season premiere. Can't wait for the new episode tomorrow night. |
