TV Series

@Coatigan, @BlueHammer85 (and others) - a little note to say that I finished Breaking Bad last night and I agree that it is one of the best series ever.

Before I watched it, I had this image of poor actors with dodgy Latino accents holding guns sideways. Whilst I was thinking that it wasn't my thing after 2 or 3 episodes, I stuck with it and it repaid in spades. Yes, it's a series about drug production and raking in the cash and turf wars, but for me this is as much about one guy who is put in a situation, finds a way out of it only to be confronted with one problem after another for the next 5 series. I love the way it's a story about his family and the problems it presents for his DEA brother-in-law, and I think bringing it all to a satisfactory conclusion after 5 series was the right decision. I also loved the New Mexico/desert setting.

Anyway, thanks for the recommendation.

Halfway into the first episode of "Your Honor" is it worth sticking with it?

I would say yes. It gets a bit fillery 2 thirds in, but they find a way to end it well. The initial constant feeling of unease also goes away after a while too. It is good one if you dont feel like u jeed to invest into long running sagas.
