The Wire is still the best modern TV drama I've seen, but I would put Breaking Bad right behind it. Love Deadwood and Game of Thrones, though. I really enjoyed Justified for the first few seasons, but it lost me somewhere along the way. I'm more into the Americans and Fargo on FX at the moment.
Did you see the episode yet where Jesse is forced to kill Walter, Jr.? Heartbreaking, am I right?My wife and I didn't start watching Breaking Bad 'til after it had ended. I DVRed the AMC marathon of the series leading up to the finale. At the moment, we're 9 episodes from the end. Wanted to finish it before Saul started ... but didn't quite make it.
