Ha...used to see that one all the time and never knew what it was (other than the words he used).

Finally started watching it a few weeks ago (actually kind of sad I'm nearly done). One of my all-time favs....and Walt one of best characters ever on a show.

If you want to see something Breaking Bad-ish (but a lot more violent) check out Banshee. It was a Cinemax Original series and is just crazy.

I just re-watched it with my son who hadn't seen it and he loved it.

It's only 4 seasons (38 total episodes) so not a big investment of time either.

I'll give it a whirl. Figure I'll try Better Call Saul (as I do like his character)...but have heard it starts out very slow.

will say there a number of similarities to me when it comes to BB and Ozark. Most obvious are the money laundering and that a relatively normal couple turned into badasses. wonder if the main kingpin in Ozark suffers the same fate as the one in BB.

Yeah, Better Call Saul is good, but did start kind of slow.

Can't wait for the next season of Ozark.

Nor can I but cannot imagine happening anytime soon. Early 2021 might even be a stretch. Hope I'm wrong

Never watched an episode of Breaking Bad. Heard from many it's a great show. I was watching Sons of Anarchy.

Took me a while, obviously....so worth it.

I'm gonna start watching it soon. You watching this Nuggets/Jazz game? Utah right now looks like they want it more. Denver can't do anything right. Great first quarter for the Jazz. I think the Nuggets are really missing starters G. Harris and W. Barton in this series. Damn the west is deep.

I was really disappointed with Better Call Sual.

I feel like that idea had so much potential. It is an okay show. It could have been a great show.

I've enjoyed it. Could be better. But to be fair, Breaking Bad set a pretty high bar.

Game 3 tonight (Saturday). We shall see if LeBron is going to show-up or take the game-off like he did in Game 2 and practically in Game 1 for that matter.

Lebron doesn’t seem to be the scoring machine like he did before the bubble...but I think it is more than that. He knows they can win this series on AD’s shoulders and he is trying to get everyone back in sync. He only played 27 mins last game so he isnt wearing down. He knows they will need his scoring more if they want to go deep in the playoffs. When he wants to drive, he can at will (if he makes the layup) lol. He isnt getting many fouls called like he hasnt all year but he really just needs to get his jumpshot going, could help the team as while tremendously but obviously him
