I didn't watch Breaking Bad when it ran as a weekly program, but have been watching the AMC Marathon--have all on DVR to watch at my leisure.

AMC stinks with ads--they once ran a lot more movie than commercial, and this round has been over half for ads.

9:45 of show, 5:30 of commercials.

Yeah, thats why I DVRed it back then. Id do just about anything else for an hour, then we would grab the remote (for fast forward every ten mintues or so) and watch it. The show was really about 40 min when you fast forward thru all the commercials.

Secret: Click the directv jump button 6 times and you are back in the show.

I've been living outside the US for a couple decades and don't even watch much TV here so I had not heard about Breaking Bad until about a year ago. I lived most of my life in the US SW so when my dad is retired in ABQ I made that my US home of record. I try to get there a few times a year and hope to retire there.

When I heard BrBa was all filmed in ABQ I got interested. A couple weeks ago I got the entire series on DVD and have been watching it daily. Really cool to see ABQ as part of the series. It really makes me miss ABQ.

Enjoy the series. We live in the ABQ area but did not watch much of the series until after it was over. My few initial views of a few episodes was not good, plus I was tied up a lot when the series ran. So we watched it all after it was over. I guess that is called "Bucket Watching". It was good. It does show a lot of scenery of the area... Enjoy!

Months after finale, 'Breaking Bad' still cooking in Albuquerque - latimes.com

An interesting article about the show in todays LA Times about the show's enduring popularity and other issues.

Will probably try to watch it... "Better Call Saul" is scheduled to be released in November. It's going to air on AMC which I don't get, so unless they stream it to Netflix or Amazon I'll just have to miss it. A rumor that after the season Netflix will stream.
