Everytime I try to sit down and watch it on Netflix I just get bored. everyone keeps tellin me i would like it and all this, but I just can get into. I dont wanna skip any episodes cuz then i might be lost.

Is there a certain point I should start at?
Or is it something Im not understanding?

Maybe it's just not for you. :manny:

Also it depends on what people told you about it, before you started watching it. What did you hear about it?

You are not going to get into it because you are expecting kingpin legendary badass Heisendberg da God and you are watching bytch ass teacher Mr W. Watch it months later when the hype is gone and spoilers have dissipated.

You are too bandwagon to be watching a show the days before the final episode.. Unless you can spend every waking moment watching.

@iCarly... :russ:
Darius, he is the :shaq2: nikka on the block for real lol

PS- any suggestions on how to watch the wire for free? Trying to catch that. What's up with season 2, why is that causing people to drop off?

It focuses on white people who work on the docks, instead of black people in the projects killin each other

Well, here's the thing.

This show is highly serialized....probably moreso than any other show I can think of. Meaning, no you can't really skip any seasons or episodes, because the story is based around the main character turning from a good man into a villain. For example, season 1 Walter:

Season 5 Walter:

breaking-bad-800x450.jpg


You can't really get the full scope of his transformation if you skip episodes, it's a slow process. He don't wake up one morning like :ld: "I'm gonna be a gangster now".

Watch the next 2 eps. That shows a bit of his character development. After that, if it isn't for you it isn't for you. :yeshrug:

If you have AMC, they're running a marathon from now until the finale on Sunday. It's on episode 2 right now.

Just watch it like you've never heard of it before, and stay away from the spoilers.

No sleep :birdman:

I'm 3 seasons in & the only episode I thought was trash was the one with the fly

That's definitely a hate-it-or-love-it episode. There's no in between. I thought it was....not bad, just not good and kinda pointless the first time I watched it. But after you see later seasons it fits into the story a bit better, so now I like it a lot.
