Breaking bad and Peaky blinders worth watching?
#1
As the title states. 

I heard many people say that the series are quite long winded. Any opinions?

Breaking Bad is still good. But I'd recommend NOT binging it. It's a very (intentionally) slow-paced show, and sometimes the episodes take weird detours. So if you're binging it expecting to devour a dense plotline in one week, you'll be disappointed - but if you take it slowly & enjoy each ep as its own thing, you will be richly rewarded.

Kind of like Twin Peaks, although aside from that, I wouldn't consider those 2 similar.

Another thing - BB is super dark, so it can be tough to take for hours at a time.

I'd say keep it to only one or two eps per sitting.

That's my Dr. recommendation for today

Breaking bad is definitely worth watching. I didn't watch it when it came out, and watched it recently. The show aged pretty well and isn't all dark and gloomy as there is a supporting cast that adds some levity to the show.

Both are great. And if you end up liking Breaking Bad, you'll probably like Better Call Saul. Not as good as BB, but still good.

Haven't seen peaky blinders, but Breaking Bad is a must see! My favourite TV series! Yes, it is slower paced, but the story telling, acting and cinematography is absolutely great!

I have seen all seasons of Peaky Blinders and it is definitely worth watching. Especially when the protagonist (Thomas Shelby) gets angry. Sometimes it feels like the story isn't progressing, but then boom: major plot twist.
