EJEMPLOS Walter se devuelve para álbuquerque y coje un carro robado no encontraba las llaves y de repente le caen del cielo eso es un deus ex máquina
La forma en que hank descubre a Walter es casi una tomada de pelo, ni hablar del choque de aviones del final de la segunda temporada justo , justo cae el peluche en la piscina, sin mencionar que de todas las personas del mundo de walt se encontró justo con el padre de Jane en el bar
Breaking Bad era excelente pero muchos de esos conflictos inician de manera facilita , pero creo que la gente los deja pasar por qué es muy famosa y la mayoría no saben de guión, Breaking bad tiene vários (como ese gran deus ex-machina en el que se basa la revelación ha Hank al final de la primera parte de la quinta temporada).
También por ejemplo que Walter haya podido hacer una ametralladora con movimiento, cuando el es químico, no mecánico avanzado.
Esto no tendría un planting narrativo, ya que con anterioridad no se había mostrado que walter white superiera hacer eso.

O por ejemplo cuando en face off Gustavo frink no se subio al carro como si tuviera una especie de sentido arácnido. O lo inverosimil que es Gustavo frink tenga solo media cara quemada de hecho lo opuesto a dónde estaba la bomba, ahora me preguntó por qué todos los cuerpos quedaron rotos, hasta Héctor salamanca quedo sin una pierna y Gustavo frink solo media cara quemada!? A pero claro como fue épico el fandom de breaking bad se lo perdona.

Fanservice: Jesse se salva y Walter se sale con la suya de manera inverosímil a pesar de morir

conveniencias de guion: No solo le sale todo bien a Walter sino que asesina a todos con el deus ex máquina incluyendo a Lidia, da el dinero a los empresarios , etc etc etc etc

Clichés: Escena demasiado trillada en Hollywood del tipo que mata a todos saliéndose con la suya como duro de matar, Rambo, etc, como el cine de acción más convencional Y muchísimas cosas más

Hear me out. I was constantly told how smart and good of a show it was by friends, family and media. So I watched the first season, but then stopped just before the third season out of boredom. I finally finished the show, and I can't expressHear me out. I was constantly told how smart and good of a show it was by friends, family and media. So I watched the first season, but then stopped just before the third season out of boredom. I finally finished the show, and I can't express how disappointed I am. There were very few stellar moments, and most of those were in the first season. Here are my major gripes with the show:

Characters IMO the most important aspect of a show, and BB does not have many interesting or well developed characters. Skyler is an unrealistically **** wife. Jesse is made out to be overly stupid and simplistic, with random emotional outbursts used to cheaply propel the otherwise stagnant plot points. The show tries to hard to make him look stupid, which prevents him from ever saying anything meaningful or deep.

Walt is an absolute mess of a character. Seasons 1-4 he's a bumbling, nerdy, sympathetic character and then season 5 he turns into a "monster" because the show demands it. Most supporting characters are one-dimensional. The "why" for Walt's actions disappears after season 1, and then is only given in season 5 as a fan-service by regurgitating what forums/reviewers mentioned as a sort of "yeah, that's what we meant all along". Yet the argument for the lust for power isn't supported by the actual show, since there aren't many examples of Walt feeling powerful, or becoming empowered by making meth. He's always scared for his life, answering to bigger dogs.

Jesse's friends are just stereotypical meth-heads, zero depth. The coolest bad guy, Tuco, dies way too early.

Gus is just silent/ruthless, so underdeveloped for the sake of "mystery". Contrast this with Ben Linus from LOST who plays a similar character, except way more believably and to far better results.

There's a constant revolving door of characters because, hey, half of the non-essential characters were killed last season for shock value.

2. The Pacing After the very good first season, the show starts rinsing and repeating the same formula:

"Jesse, we need 2 cook" -> someone makes an unrealistically stupid mistake that puts the boys in trouble -> buddy hijinks galore -> "Chemistry **** haha" -> walt has lie to skyler.

Throw some "artistic" shots of NM fauna, awkward breakfast scenes, expository dialogue, and you've got a seasons 2-4. Also, there is very little good dialogue, it's usually just expository and rarely characterizes the characters beyond their initial caricature-izations. The show just drags on, and intense episodes are a rarity.

3. The lack of Intellectualism Besides some "smart" references (Levoisier, some chemistry tidbits) there is nothing smart about the show. Scenes are always screaming at you (This guy is a jerk! Look at how jerky he is! did you notice!! Oh, Look at how angry this character is!!! LOOK!!! CAN YOU SEE????? The show assumes the viewer is retarded and just highlights everything to the point of silliness. It lacked subtlety, and without subtlety there is no complexity.

4. Nothing is explained. Nothing. What is Gus's motivation. What is Mikes motivation, what happened, who is his daughter? What happened at Grey Matter? Anything meaningful about Walt's past.

5. The Bad Guys Shallow. One-dimensional. Temporary. Unexplained. After Tuco's brilliant and temporary tenure, Gus was just an underwhelming attempt at "mysterious" and was totally unexplained, which was super annoying. Why does Gus do what he does? Does he have a family? What caused him to act all robotic and ruthlessly? What was he like in Chile? What was his relationship like with the "hermano" that the Cartel killed? Why?

So, could you please change my view?

Boardwalk empire is the best mafia series ever. This and sopranos are not good tv shows. You can watch The Godfather trilogy and The Departed and you got anything Breaking Bad and Sopranos want to show you.

I watched the series for 5 seasons in vain, only the last 3 episodes of the series were very good, other than that pfff, I think it is overrated.
