Same goes for Dex.

all that type of new show... True blood, Dexter etc - they all just seem like Buffy the Vampire slayer for adults to me. Can't really get into any of them.

I do like Boardwalk Empire though. That one is pretty strong.

i liked last season and this one is pretty good so far. depends on if you like Hannah or not i guess

I'm a huge Dexter mark, this season is shit. It's not going to end well because they're aren't many episodes left. They were flying high then after season 4(Trinity) it sucked quite frankly by comparison.

Just a question, what garners better ratings, WD or BB?

[SJ]

Can't be long until the walking dead is back on. Fuck yes.

can't seem to find good numbers on breaking bad...

[SJ]

oh

walking dead gets better ratings I think.

Season 1 Sunday 10:00 pm 6 October 31, 2010 5.35[72] December 5, 2010 5.97[73] 5.24[74]
Season 2 Sunday 9:00 pm 13 October 16, 2011 7.26[75] March 18, 2012 8.99[76] 6.90[77]
Season 3 Sunday 9:00 pm 16 October 14, 2012 10.87[78] March 31, 2013 12.40[13] 11.42[79]

I wonder how they'll wrap up Walking Dead on TV. Kirkman's probably going to keep the comic going long after the show is over.

[SJ]

averaged 11 million viewers over season 3

I saw numbers for breaking bad around 2 - 3 million avg

[SJ]

head to head comparison:

In its original American broadcast, "Box Cutter" was seen by an estimated 2.58 million household viewers, according to Nielsen Media Research. It was the most watched Breaking Bad episode in the series and the second highest rated season premiere for any AMC show, falling behind only the series premiere of The Walking Dead, which drew 5.3 million household viewers.

WD-12.4 million
BB- 2.8 million

But ratings aren't the mark of success in terms of which is "better". BB is an award winning show, has WD clinched any?

Interesting, thanks for looking that up, I appreciate it.

[SJ]

They claim netflix has really hurt BB's ratings

A lot of people got into it a few seasons later. That's always been the case. Look at Seinfeld.

[Chob]

With episodic TV, I like marathoning episodes.

[PissJug]

it gets a lot of shit and some of it is well deserved but Lost will probably always be my favorite show

[SJ]

I think Night Court will always be one of my fav shows
