I know their not similar however I loved breaking bad and am obsessed with it but I'm looking for new show to watch,since I'm assuming you people are fans of justified and some of you may have seen breaking bad,do you recommend this show to watch I've already watched soa and liked it somewhat,hated dexter thought it was phony
shareI would recommend Justified. It is not quite as intense as Breaking Bad and Breaking Bad more tightly plotted. But Justified is more entertaining to watch. Justified is fun, with some very quirky characters and some of the best dialogue put on TV. There is a lot of dark humor in Justified and the show can sometimes switch from being incredibly dark to incredibly funny so quick you'll get whiplash.
If you want a show like Breaking Bad, try The Shield. There are a lot of similarities between The Shield and Breaking Bad. Plus, The Shield can be incredibly intense.
Justified is light years ahead of BB.
shareJustified is my all time favorite show and Breaking Bad is in my top 10. I'd definitely recommend it but would warn you that the first half of the first season is a little slow so stick with it.
shareA huge amount of shows suffers from first seasonitus, though. But I agree, the first half of S1 is a completely different show than the rest of the series.
shareI actually just finished up my first rewatch for both of these. I honestly prefer Justified. Breaking Bad SLIGHTLY edges out Justified in quality but in terms of entertainment? I'd put Justified up against any other show out there, it's so fun. The writing is sharp and crisp, the stories are always fun and well written, and the cast is top notch.
sharethere is no vs. They both are equally great and suspenseful. You could try Fargo as well. it's a slow-burner with big pay offs. i though both seasons were great.
shareJustified , Breaking Bad is overrated
shareCompletely agree. I enjoyed BB well enough but I think it's way overrated. BB is nowhere near my top 10, Justified is my all time favorite show, superb lead characters and supporting/guest characters, well written, and just a super fun show to watch. Raylan is just a badass.
shareBB is completely overrated and not the end-all-be-all that some people would have you believe.
It's a decent show but not much else.
My vote is for Justified. Just loved it.
