If you didn't enjoy this strawman, you just didn't consume enough of them.
Luckily, there's plenty more on thebad.website.
All of this is imo, but. My biggest issue with BB is that most of the characters lack any meaningful depth; they feel like caricatures rather than real people. The writers didn't have a long term plan for BB, and I feel like it shows in a lot of the storylines. I don't think Walt's character was consistent at all, which bugs me because he's the focal point of the story.
All of these things I think BCS addressed and improved on. And again, I don't even really dislike BB, I just think it feels like an off-brand sopranos. BCS, on the other hand, is the genuine article. I honestly think it's one of the best shows that's ever aired on regular cable. But I'm just some random dickhead on the internet, so who cares what I think lol.
I think part of that with BB is that it takes place over a very short amount of time (like, under two years?). Not that there isn't time for growth, but it's pretty non-stop of just Stuff Happening as Walt just chaos-gods his way through things.
It's always got the throttle down and so there's very little reflection time. Like, all the Sopranos' action moments just back to back.
That's actually a pretty fair point.
