    "Breaking Bad" 3rd season DVD

    I've been spinning this series on DVD lately. I rented it from my library on the recommendation of some friends. Sadly, I would have liked to start with the first season but it was not available. I must say that it is entertaining......if not a tad silly. Some of the actors won Emmy's for their work in this series.

    It's basically about a terminally ill middle aged man who decides, for the sake of providing for his family, to undertake making Crystal Meth (He's a chemist apparently). All kinds of things go wrong and this series is basically about all that.

    The video quality is fine but the dvd has serious sound issues. The actors whisper and mumble a lot and the sound guy just didn't get it right. I find myself pumping up my center channel speaker to hear their mumbling's, only to be blown away when music starts or gun fire erupts!!. It's VERY bothersome to say the least!.

    Other than that, it's an entertaining watch.

    You need to start from the beginning to fully appreciate the series. It is available on Netflix streaming if you have that option (that's where I watched it--awaiting the final season to arrive on Netflix).

      I know Ovation, that's what everybody tells me (watch it from the beginning!). However, my library only had season 3 and I really wanted to check it out. So therefore, I'm kinda' stuck in that season now. I don't currently have the internet bandwidth to stream Netflix. I'm still enjoying it though!.

        Third Watch

        After having just burned through season 8 of the series "Supernatural" which I thoroughly enjoyed, I've started spinning this 2001 series, "Third watch". This is basically a cop, firefighter, and paramedic series involving a pile of interesting...

        Really enjoying this series. Season 1 was last year, and was pretty darn good. Better than the Affleck and Kevin Smith version, I think, in part because it can go much further into a story and character exposition as a series instead of a standalone film. And let's not even mention the abomination...

        Parenthood-

        My local library just picked up this series and I've watched both seasons 1 and 2 so far. This series is essentially very similar to "Brothers and Sisters" that I reviewed earlier but this one spares us the huge Gay agenda that latter delivered. The only...

        Season 2 is up today, on episode 4 and loving every bit so far. This show really surprises me the quality in production and writing that Netflix turns out in this show. If half the crap on the big networks were anywhere near as good I would never leave my couch haha!
