Better than the Breaking Bad? Not in my book. We watched a couple of episodes.

The last one we watched the good guys would fight off the bad guys, get out of whatever jam they were in and find, you guessed it, more bad guys. This went on thru 3 iterations including the obligatory guy you thought was good being bad. I did think the acting was swell, I mean, they were all trying sooooo hard. But better than Breaking Bad? Not in the same ballpark. JMHO yada yada yada.

To each his own, I guess? :) I rate BB very low - Victor Khomenko 17:39:20 08/14/14 (2)
I think its writing is purely pathetic, but anyway, speaking of The Following - it is a "bag buys-good guys" show, with the limitations of the genre, however, within those limitations I think it does marvelous job.

One sign - if bad guys truly send your blood pressure up. There was nothing of that in BB, but here it happened often. And when the good guys took their revenge, you had an almost orgasmic experience - another mark of a successful script.
- Well since it promises a near orgasmic experience, maybe I'll watch it - Road Warrior 18:17:40 08/14/14 (1)
  and skip all foreplay next time the wife is feeling frisky :)

    With just 30 episodes it doesn't take too much time, but I can promise you a few late nights. I know I had some! :)
