Best TV drama I've ever seen has to be, hands down, Breaking Bad. It is utterly brilliant and you must watch it if you haven't seen it.

This is the awesome first scene from the pilot episode.



The story follows Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a school chemistry teacher who is down on his luck. His financial situation means that he seeks out slightly less conventional ways to earn money. He learns from his brother in law, a DEA agent, that there is an insane amount of money to be made in the cooking and selling of crystal meth. He knows the chemistry for making it and just needs a business partner to help him sell it. This is when he runs into his former student and college drop out, Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) who relunctantly agrees to help him out.

It really is a brilliant series with Bryan Cranston stealing the show. It is the perfect mix of serious drama and (seriously) dark comedy which makes it for very good watching. I really implore that you sit down and watch it if you haven't seen or heard of it. It's very different from anything else out there.

Season 3 aired earlier this year in the states, and series 1 & 2 have been aired in the UK, but hidden away on Five USA. The season 1 DVD is out in the UK though, with season 2 being released on Monday.

How much are they paying you to plug this?

I just knew that we had an empty drama thread, and I finally remembered a good drama to put in it
