100Soak in the visuals, listen to the mesmerizing use of sound. The writing and acting will lure you in, but have appreciation for all the details that go into making this series so great.
-
100The show keeps delivering the kind of mind-expanding dramatic highs that ought to require a prescription.
-
100This show--still TV's best--remains utterly true to itself.
-
Breaking Bad has, in short, everything you could want from an hour-long show: suspense, laughs, danger, and poignance.
-
90Perhaps the most disturbing possibility--the subtext that makes Breaking Bad both enthralling and often unbearable to watch--is that Walter is becoming who he always was. He hasn’t changed. He’s been purified.
-
90When people ask me to recommend good TV, they never seem to have heard about it. Yup, Breaking Bad is that series.
-
90AMC’s "Breaking Bad" [is] still the best drama you’re not watching.
-
90Bad challenges anxious viewers, but it remains one of TV's best hours, thanks to strong performances from the entire cast and the steady, guiding hand of executive producer Vince Gilligan, who proves in tonight's episode that he values realistic, risk-taking storytelling over the more convenient status quo.
-
90It's a drama that has chosen the slow burn over the flashy explosion, and it's all the hotter for that choice.
-
90The stakes couldn’t be higher, or the drama more compelling. Breaking Bad is back, badder and better than ever.
-
The bleakness is a little relentless for my taste, but you have to marvel at the series' dark vision. Odenkirk is working with the best of the best, and he knows it.
-
The chemistry of every television show should have as rapid a half-life as Breaking Bad, transforming into something new while building off the critical elements of the past.
