Fargo is a serious movie making, of pretty high caliber.

Breaking Bad is just another trashy TV show.

There's a new series based on the film on TV, also produced by the Coen brothers. The first episode was very good and has the same mood as the film.

Based only on the pilot, I find Breaking Bad far superior to Fargo. My opinion may change with time as the show develops.

  ...you might find the first season mildly entertaining, but all downhill, and fast, from even that moderate level.
  
  Fargo, OTOH, is subtle and done with good taste and gentle touch.
  - Breaking Bad downhill after season 1? Really??? I thought the show runner(s) did a great job of keeping it - Road Warrior 16:07:47 04/18/14 (2)
    fresh and more or less believable throughout its life. Quite an accomplishment considering the small, as opposed to epic, scale, and the focus on the main character's family and close personal relationships.

      Not always easy to watch, and many of the characters vacillated between being sympathetic and without redeeming qualities, but the writing was genuinely fresh and sharp.
      
      Looking forward to checking out Fargo.

    I've seen all of Breaking Bad. I didn't find the Fargo pilot to be subtle or as good as Fargo, the film.
