We binged it last week. Andrea was only off work Monday so that's
what we did. LOL Now trying to find another show we would both
enjoy, I get bored VERY easily with shows and give up after a few
episodes as a rule.

I was hooked on Ozark. I just finished the most recent season a few
days ago. Just like with Breaking Bad, I was anxious to know what was going to happen next. It builds into a complex network of
consequences. You are left wondering how soemthing is going to play out and what it will set in motion next.

Andrea liked both those shows too, I lost interest after a few
episodes. Not sure why, I'll go back and try again one day though.

What about Westworld? The production values in that one are amazing.
It is a beautifully re-imagined expansion of the world from the book of the same name and a fine nod to the original movie.
I'd throw Humans into the mix - I think it was on USA. Interesting take
on Robots and sentience.
I'm going to dig up my old Max Headroom DVD and see how they hold up.

For a similar story about machine intelligence, I thought I AM MOTHER
was well done. It's just typical movie length, and therefore a fine complete story that you can watch in one sitting.

That'd be a bit ugly.... Max used to be on before Dr Who here... must
be something like 35 years ago.. maybe more... But they never ran the whole series that I'm aware of, I remember seeing the first ep more
than once...

That was more like a talk show wasn't it? I first recall the MH
character introducing music videos or something.
There was a talk show with Max as the host. Max Headroom (the movie)
was a dystopian cyberpunk ("20 minutes into the Future") show where television networks run amok. TVs are required to be on 24/7, and
it's got some interesting imagery. There was a spinoff series as
well.

Ah.. that was outside my radar range then.
TVs required to be on 24/7?

Try Yellowstone with Kevin Costner and or Animal Kingdom (I believe on Prime, many be netflix ...) both are similar Genre, and both leave you hanging each season end. Sons of Anarchy was great too.
Lastly, off the top of my head, What about Sal is a good spin off
Breaking Bad. It surely starts slow but brings a lot of the same
actors and charactors back. This last season, so far, has been the
best.

They sound like they might work for me. Thanks. The last one goes back to 2008 and 7 seasons; that one feels too much to get vested in.
There are quite many series out there, but not enough free time to watch.
You mean Better Call Saul? I've heard that it is a very respectable spinoff/continuity to Breaking Bad. I was thoroughly emmersed into Breaking Bad. It was the first series that I binge-watched late into
the early mornings day after day for several weeks. I was a bit of a
wreck at work the next day as I dreamed of operating a lucrative
business.
personally am glad I hung in there. El Camino was a quick one off relating to "What happened to Jesse" from breaking bad as well. It's not a bad watch. Its one short movie. And I too would go into work the next day with those evil thought in my head of distributing narcotics through my employers to the home owners we served lol!
But, I'd shake the prior nights binge watching out of me and get back
to the reality of a non profitable business owner.
I keep shaking my head, but "it" is still in me.
It irks me to think that actors get away with asking so much for just playing pretend and having fun.

Dammit Ogg, now I'm going to have to binge the show again. Too many awesome memories in that show. The luck Walter and Jessie had was unrealistic and so funny. I'm in .. watching it again.
... Maybe I'll find a chicken fast food chain to funnel my crack
through haha!
All are good. Yellowstone sounds like a good first to start with, as it's only completed Season 2 with a 3rd season approved and ready to release
in fall. Ozark, just now into season 3. Sons of Anarchy save for when you have time -- it's an epic story of an organized criminal biker gang. Lots of twists and excellent characters. Animal Kingdom I think is finished,
but it, weeds, and Ozark are the most like Breaking Bad I had seen, with obvious different angles.
The timing of the "luck" was a lot of fun.
their activity from snooping authorities. I liked the suspect-is-right-under- your-nose tension between Walter and his brother-in-law officer.
Ever see the film Glorious Basterds? There's a fine bar scene that plays with that same tension between suspect and officer.
Infact, the opening scenes in the film between the officer and the
family man trying to lie inorder to protect the family under the floorboards is of equal tension - but not humourous.
I thought that that home fumigation service was very clever.
Ya.. you need a place that normally emits odors such as a cleaner, home fumigation, maybe even a pulp and paper mill.

Well a traveling RV is just not my style. Heck, a pig farm should mask the smell.
