Finished watching Breaking Bad?? What next? Any suggestion?

i'm looking forward to the next season of shameless (U.S. version).. it's probably my 3rd favorite show after GoT and boardwalk empire. IMO it's better than the U.K. version, which i didn't like so much.

Pssh. Shameless Uk is pretty good, but have only seen the first couple of episodes of the US show, Shameless without it's Britishness just isn't Shameless. Remakes are hardly ever better than their originals. Just look at The Inbetweeners and The Office.

i agree that remakes are usually not better than the originals, but i like the U.S. version a lot more than the UK one. it's got a lot of heart actually. i think a lot of people watch the originals, and nothing will compare to them.. even if the newer version is actually better. then again, that's just my opinion.

UK Shameless is more of a dark drama / black comedy. Haven't seen enough of the US version to compare. I haven't even seen the last couple of UK seasons either, but I can see how non-British viewers wouldn’t find it as funny.

Good tips in this thread. I also advise The Wire and Dexter.

actually, the U.S. version isn't really that funny.. it's just a wild story. i guess you could say frank is pretty funny (i do love william h. macy's portrayal), but it's more about the nitty gritty white trash lifestyle. while the storyline gets pretty wacky, there's something about shameless that feels real and organic.

I just try watching The Wire. I can't get into it. Is Dexter finished yet? I like Dexter, but don't want to watch it until it is final.

I think I will watch Prison Break, I only watched the 1st Season.

Keep posting for suggestion please. I want to have a list to go to, when I run out of things to watch.

Thanks. 

I really liked Dexter, much better than I thought I would and yes, it's finished.

UK version isn't that funny as well; it's more of a dark drama than a comedy, but the humour elements come from the wacky / eccentric characters. I'd say 'nitty gritty white trash lifestyle' fits the UK version aptly as well, but people don't really use the term white trash over here. It is also very northern English, so I can understand if it doesn't translate well overseas.

Breaking bad was such a sick series, the last episode may very well be the best tv episode of all time.

I just recently started watching The Wire. It's pretty sick, recommended for sure.

now the one series that makes me laugh uncontrollably is eastbound and down. kenny fucking powers is ridiculously funny. it's stupid and over the top, but i don't give a shit. do brits enjoy eastbound and down, or is it too quintessentially american for you?

[DubFX]

Weeds maybe?

[Kenshin]

I tried to watch Prison Break from esp 1. I just can't get back into it, because I have seen season 1 many years ago.

I think I might just have to force myself to watch The Wire again. So many of you said it is good. There is a lot going on. Maybe that is why I didn't managed to get into it.

I like Person of Interest but it haven't finished yet. So waiting until it is finish. I might give Dexter a go later. I have seen up to season 2 before. Dexter is good. I hated watching films with lots of gore and blood. But after watching Dexter, I have overcome this fear.

I am thinking I might try watching Weed, but maybe after something else. Too much drugs. 

[yatsey87]

Weeds maybe?

I found Weeds to be a bit silly and unexciting. It's like Desperate Housewives but with, erm, Weed.

same.. but marie louise parker kept me tuning in for 2 seasons. ultimate hot milf.. and kevin nealon was great. but in the end, the story got too wacky for my taste.

I haven't seen Eastbound and Down, but I've got the first two seasons downloaded. I'll give it a go sometime.

I agree. I watched the first two seasons and gave up as it was just to far-fetched to me. I always found it weird how Celia's eldest daughter just disappeared after a few episodes in the first season with no real explanation.

Yeah, she is quite lovely.

I really like Arrow. Watching S2 atm.

btw while i like ricky gervais, i think his style of comedy (and stephen merchant too) doesn't suit my tastes. it's a bit too tryhard.. although awkward humor can be good. i don't like "hello ladies" all that much. karl pilkington is probably the most entertaining of the 3.

The Office will always be the greatest sitcom of all time to me. Nothing comes close. Karl Pilkington is hilarious. Hello Ladies is shite. Merchant is nothing without Gervais.

well i have to say.. the UK version of the office was better than the U.S. version. the funniest thing ricky gervais has ever been involved in, in my opinion, is this clip right here. i laughed so hard watching this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKTh7zBIcrM

but i also found life's too short a bit too tryhard for my taste.
