Anything worth watching after Breaking Bad?

[wayne_m]

Well after almost 62 episodes The wife and I are going to finish Breaking Bad this Sunday. We will be inconsolable. I cannot remember ever enjoying a TV program as much in my life. It has beaten everything inc Spartacus and Game of Thrones. Does anyone have any recommendations for something to watch?
Cheers all.

We have two active threads that cover this topic in great detail with lots of great recommendations. Let me dig out the links and I will post here shortly.

Edit. I thought there was two, maybe they were merged -

Everything you need is in that thread.

I've yet to come across anything better than BB. Have resigned myself to never finding better.

Dexter, Criminal Minds, Numbers, Hannibal. I love all of them, very good series'.

Better Call Saul is the obvious choice, it being the spinoff/prequel series to Breaking Bad.

Hi there,

Well just for the hell of it, watch a few episodes of Banshee. Right now I think it' on season 4, although I haven't see any of that. It has it's very strong moments, even though sometimes suspending reality is a handy thing.

I couldn't get through even one Breaking Bad episode...... it's a real downer man.......heh.

Anyway, see how Banshee hits you both.

Also, The Leftovers is good too.

After Breaking Bad, I'd say Fargo!

And then Better Call Saul, although...

The Leftovers: the most intriguing and beautiful show after BB for sure
Hannibal: the same as previous but dark, very dark... If you like gastronomy and serial killers.
Banshee: I've never seen a guy healing so fast without a bandaid...

I can add
Mr Robot
Daredevil + Jessica Stone
The two first seasons of House of Cards (US)
Game of Thrones
True Detective
Suits
Vikings
Louie

Luther's good if you haven't already seen it.

Looks like this thread is going to take off irrespective of the other one.

So here we go- off the top of me head, in no particular order:

• The Sopranos
• Luther
• Daredevil
• Banshee
• Homeland
• Narcos
• Rescue Me
• The Blacklist
• Hannibal
• Dexter
• Sherlock (UK)

"The Night Manager" (BBC) was excellently British - although the first two episodes have already disappeared from iPlayer

^^^Really good tele'
If you have not watched the Sopranos, you will not be disappointed!

Right there ... points out of window.

Yep! Absolutely cracking! Second series better than the first. Third will be quite excellent if only Sarah Lancashire would commit. Without Sgt. Cawood, what is it? But with clever writers, I'm sure it would be everything the first and second series were ... after all, "the valley" is the lead character.

I hope she does because she's a seriously underrated actress. The whole cast on both series have been excellent. Agree completely on the second series, I just thought they left too much out of episodes 4 and 5, then tried to pack too much into the sixth.
I've done a few trips around your part of the world, simply gorgeous, as you know.
