Never seen it, no interest.

Nope no interest though it might be slightly more interesting than a TV  show  about Zombies

No. Only watched it once (all 5 series, that is).

Youngest daughter watched it before me and tried to get me to watch it. Always put it off. Finally started watching. Found it slow to start (first series). Went through same process with one of my mates. He finally started watching. Still trying to get another mate to watch this (he's more stubborn).

Bottom line. I loved it. Wife loved it. Mate loved it. For those who haven't watched, stick with it. Get's to be brilliant. On my list to watch again sometime.  :-bd

It's on my list to watch at some point, hopefully in the summer.  I think it's available on the Sky Boxset thingy, so I'll get them downloaded ready.

Got three-quarters of the way through episode one and gave up. Not remotely engaged by any of the characters. I prefer the UK version. :)

Nope, no interest in at all. Far more important things to do with my precious time than watch such series.

It's major idsadvantag is that watching it will - however indirectly - support a facsit Aussie Crook.

Never even heard of the program so had to Google it.  Now having read the blurb I will make sure to miss it, just not something I would be interested in.

Walking Dead was every bit as good as Breaking Bad.

See my post above for my take on Breaking Bad :-)

I can take BBT in small doses but don't think I've ever been able to stand a whole episode.

Sorry, I disagree. Big Bang Theory is about as funny as contracting a dose, along with the vast majority of situation-'comedies'.

Got bored with Walking Dead after three episodes, like Falling Skies and am currently enjoying The 100. That French programme The Returned was enjoyably enigmatic and now they have finally started filming the second series I'm looking forward to that.

Believe it or not I am not, nor ever have been, a huge television watcher. Life is short enough without getting square eyes from staring continuously at the goggle-box.

If you like the Top Totty thread I can recommend Lost Girl if it's still there. Humour, Anna Silk and Ksenia Solo, 'Oh, Happy Day'.(Only 5 series)

Yep The 100 gets the two thumbs up from me :-bd

Also watching The Originals, The Blacklist and Twelve Monkeys all cracking shows.

Some time ago I got to about ep 4 or 5 of season 3 of Breaking Bad and suddenly thought, 'No one can be that unlucky this is silly' and stopped watching.

I'll probably have another go at watching it in a couple of weeks.
