Friends. But if you mean more recent shows, then it's fear the walking dead. I just cannot get into it at all. It feels like I'm trying to find other things to do everything I sit down to watch it... I never could get into The Walking Dead, but to be honest, the reasons are more about my personal preferences than about the show itself. First off, I just can't get into zombies. I'm willing to accept a small dose of it, but if it gets the least bit out of control, then I start struggling with it. (I even have a bit of a problem with it in Game of Thrones. It reads better than watching it, but when I start watching the Army of the Dead, I start wanting to giggle. I just do not find it scary and end up thinking it's funny. I don't really have a problem with it in books though). The other thing about The Walking Dead was the fact it was the show that AMC immediately used to replace Rubicon, which I liked a lot. I know one did not have anything to do with the other, but is just felt that way.

I've watched the first season of Breaking Bad but I couldn't really get into it so I never continued. It was okay but I didn't see what made it the best show in the world, I know so many that are better A lot of the other shows you've mentioned are on my "will watch someday"-list, I want to watch them at least enough to see what they're like but I can't find the time (not about the time really, I just can't be bothered to start watching them). My sister just raved about the Americans, I watched like the first episode when it first came on TV here but I didn't like it and just forgot the whole show and my sister was shocked to hear that I don't watch it

OK - I'm hoping we're granted 100% immunity from being censored here. These are the shows I'm certain everybody else in the universe likes except me: Orphan Black, Veep, and Orange is the New Black. I did start watching The Walking Dead and was really getting into it, but then I had a nightmare about it (I'm serious!) and had to stop watching it. Now, I watched all three seasons of Penny Dreadful and really liked it, with nary a nightmare, so go figure. : /

I won't throw any rotten fruit at you though.

Breaking Bad. Forced myself to watch it for a few seasons. I liked a few episodes but it was mostly boring family drama. The "fly episode" made me quit. I just can't return.
Arrow. Really enjoyed the first season. Season 2 was okay, mostly because of Slade Wilson. The quality of the series has dropped drastically since S2.
The Walking Dead I never got the hang of it, I just don't understand why..

True Detective Everyone sais it is so great, but I watched 3 eps and I can't force myself to continue. So boring... When I heard season 2 is not as good as season 1 it really made me drop the show.

I consider the "Fly episode" to be the worst of the series and after that I almost quit too. I'll admit that I didn't really understand the fascination with Breaking Bad until I got to S4. Though I stuck with it and by the end, my mind was fucking blown. The second half of S5

I actually really loved the Fly episode, because it gave us a ton of insight into Jesse and Walt as characters and their dynamics. I didn't mind the slower pacing either, because it was right between the iconic episodes One Minute/I See You/ Kafkaesque and the S3 finale. I don't think there is a bad Breaking Bad episode tbh. Just excellent, very good or good ones.

Damn, The Fly was inspired. I knew there were factions that hated it but having never really discussed Breaking Bad anywhere I assumed that was a fringe opinion. It's such an important episode for Jesse and Walt's relationship. The moment where their ties nearly break. It's also one of the best directed episodes of the show, I freaking loved it.

Not going to Alpologize but I will say that I only watched the series once all the way through so I think if I were to watch the Fly episode again I'd probably appreciate it more.

I will rewatch at some point, I'm currently in the middle of 3 other shows.
