Usually I can get mine downloaded by 4PM, perfect for that last hour of work. Do have to kick the kids out of the English Library though.

I wish they had some sort of stream service here. I'd pay some decent coin to save those 3 hours of delay. The show is THAT good. If it pulls off the last season it will give ST:TNG a serious run for its money as the greatest drama series that was out in my lifetime.

I miss Gustavo already.

Can't wait to see this next season . I gotta put it in my all time top 3 shows, right next to 'The Wire', & 'The Sopranos'

some fan tributes to the show can be found at the link below. 'Better Call Saul !!'

I'm guessing (hoping) that this final season will rectify the relationship with the brother in law.

Cheers for the info. I was wondering what time the torrent would be online. EZTV torrents are the nuts .

I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade, because I love the show, too. But I don't get the comparisons to The Sopranos & The Wire. Well...all three are serious well-crafted dramas about criminals, essentially. But TS/TW had literary and philosophical ambitions that I don't see in BB. BB just wants to tell a darn fine story. Nothing wrong with that, I love a good story, and they do it well. But I wouldn't say that BB has the sort of insight into the human condition that is required of art/literature, whereas TS/TW clearly did. [/high horse]

But I could be wrong. And I'm looking forward to the show's return, too.

^^ Naah, I agree. I should have stated I would rank Breaking Bad just 'behind' 'The Wire' (#1 all time) , & 'The Sopranos' (#2 all time).

Both of those shows have more depth & breadth of characters & are at a slightly higher level , almost Shakespearean, than BB.

But, I'm trying to think of other shows to put in that upper echelon and nothing is really popping into my head.

I would put BB ahead of 'Sons of Anarchy', 'The Walking Dead', 'The Tudors', 'The Borgias', 'The Good Wife', 'Lost' & MASH. (Never been a Trekkie fan, so can't comment on that.)

I had hopes for 'Game of Thrones' after that 1st season & the 2nd season was kind of , just, 'meh', in my opinion. I read all the books and the third book was by far the best, IMO, so hopefully the 3rd & 4th seasons of the TV show will redeem the series. That 3rd book had THAT much going on in it ,that I read they are dividing it across 2 TV seasons.

As for Breaking Bad, I love how Walt & Jesse's characters have evolved over the life of the series & it continually has 'WTF moments' in it. The supporting characters are awesome as well. So, here's to another 'edge of your seat' upcoming season. S'all Good Man!

Here in Korea, I watch all my shows on piratenz.eu , if any of you are looking for a source.

Thanks to Breaking Bad, I now know that isohunt, in addition to the 'Bay, is blocked on my school's network. This torrentreactor place better be on the up and up.

Walt's turning into a straight up gangsta. I'm guessing his attitude is going to be reason why he ends up needing a M60

One thing you gott love about Korea...I Dld the torrent for my home computer, made one reply on Dave's, ordered a pizza..checked the torrent and I'm already uploading. As Pinkman would say- "Internet #$%*#!"

Seriously, outside of maybe Chappelle Show, I can't think of one show where every episode was MUST see. Maybe Deadwood?...Not quite. ST:TNG had many great episodes, but it wasn't MUST SEE. I do hope they pull it off...
