    Well then, Thank you!!

    We finished it a few weeks ago. Did not see the ending going that way at all! Tremendous show. Now easily one of my top ten of all time.

      I still think that the only thing that compares to those last 2 episodes is the ending of Breaking Bad

        Which we are in season two (about half way) right now. Will watch 2 or 3 episodes later today.

        So far we are enjoying it very much.

        • Anyone watching Lovecraft Country on HBO? I think it's fantastic so far, and Jurnee Smollett is not hard to look at either. Fantastic cast all around including Omar.

            Finished Breaking Bad last night. It was very well done on all fronts. I certainly see why it was so highly rated.

            There is a follow up movie called El Camino that we will be watching tonight or sometime this weekend.

              I'm one who thinks Breaking Bad is the greatest TV drama of all time, but that said, I found El Camino to be boring and pointless.

                Agreed on El Camino, and Breaking Bad, even at #2 all-time, can't hold a candle to The Wire.

                • Disappointing to read about El Camino. Thanks for the warning.

                  Justified, Sopranos, and The Shield are my top 3. Breaking Bad is right up there.

                  I think The Wire might be up next.

                    Nice...I recently re-watched Breaking Bad and The Wire back-to-back and there just isn't a comparison IMO. I also recently re-wathed The Sopranos and it's great as well. It is unfortunate that The Wire's worst season by far was its last because it gives an opening for other shows to make a run at GOAT.

                      Loved The Wire and while I am certainly in the minority on this, but I felt it was a bit overrated. Maybe because I watched it after hearing all the hype, and I did in fact start with the final season and then went back and watched the entire series run. But it's different than Breaking Bad in that each season had different story arcs, while Breaking Bad just went start to finish with the one single storyline.

                        If you haven't already watched it, Better Call Saul is a good follow up to Breaking Bad.

                            • Cobra Kai is cheesy yet enjoyable. Binged 4 episodes last night on Netflix.

                              • Mad Men is my favorite TV show. Is it in the conversation for the "greatest"? I think it should be.
