Breaking Bad is a "PG" drama (Possible spoilers)
Granted I'm only on ep 6 of season 1.
But so far it's like the makers of Malcom in the Middle decided to make an "adult" version.
It all seems very tame at the moment and kind of harmless and "preachy" (Think the cop relative) he's so out of touch. He's like the Disney Land version of Vic Mackey from The Shield.
He arrested the native american guy for the missing Lab equipment. His explination for it was so lame and naive. "Oh he had a criminal record. we found a blunt in his car.
Bar the whole kidnap and bath tub shit it's very mild. especially after getting into True Detective.
Is this what it's going to be like for the rest of the series?
Is Heisenberg going to remain this Parental Guidance comic book type rebel/hero I'm supposed to root for?
Or is it going to ramp it up and delve into some real dark murky territory?
Not saying it's bad. But it does come across as a really timid take on a meth dealer. Like they aren't willing to take risks to really grip and shock.
There's the 1 scewhere Jesse and Walter are waiting for Tuco at the scrap yard and they look so ridiculous, especially Walter in that hat and shades. it's like some Laurel and Hardy shit.
I guess I'm struggling to take it serious as a hard hitting drama, or maybe I'm not supposed to?

Breaking Bad has the anti-hero story arc. Heisenberg will change, and you will love it or hate it. You probably shouldn't have made this thread, I can see people posting major story elements now lol.

i agree with Jason, you get to watch the transformation unfold throughout the first season - and it takes time which is why it appears slow..i was like Just, i gave up on it after a few episodes but was told to stick through it, and im glad i did..the way the pace picks up as it goes on, you start to appreciate the first season more..i must've watched that first episode 3-4 times lol - just going back and appreciating who Walt was in the beginning
