Not a surprise, but it's nice to see this series rewarded after its final year. Vince Gilligan is a masterful storyteller.
I always wonder about this. Did they earn the awards because they were the best or because it was their last year?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_Bad The series has won ten Primetime Emmy Awards, including three consecutive wins for Best Actor for Bryan Cranston, two wins for Best Supporting Actor for Aaron Paul, a Best Supporting Actress win for Anna Gunn, and the Outstanding Drama Series in 2013, after three nominations. The series has been nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Television Series – Drama and Cranston three times for Best Actor, besides being nominated four times for a Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor, winning once at the 19th Screen Actors Guild Awards. In 2013, the Writers Guild of America named Breaking Bad the 13th best-written TV series of all time.[21] That same year, Guinness World Records called it the highest-rated TV series of all time, citing its season 5 Metacritic score of 99 out of 100.[22]
I'm familiar with it. I was thinking more in general. It seems like a lot of shows which have finished their runs receive "posthumous" awards during awards season. From what I saw of the series, I don't think I was nearly as impressed as the masses. Neither wrong nor right. Just is.
It's because it's that damn good. I didn't think I'd like it, but I got sucked in. House Of Cards is damn good too.
Well, we've heard from the "I don't care about this" people, who care enough to post about it. "Golden Globes" is in the thread title. No likey, no clicky. I watched it with the family, and had a good time.
