This thread has sort of a hipster feel to it.

I guess "Little known shows that only you've watched" would be even more hipster.

5 mins here and there. The laugh track on Friends literally makes me want to vomit. I have a problem with laugh tracks.

Friends was shot before a live audience. I dated someone who was in the audience once.

I've never seen Friends, or Seinfeld, Everybody Loves Raymond, The Sopranos, etc.
Still haven't gotten to Mad Men, but that's a matter of time.

I hate laugh tracks too, Glan. Literally unwatchable.

I think they still "enhanced it" quite a bit.

Popular shows that currently dub in the yuks, whether they tape before a live audience or not, include "Two and a Half Men," "The Big Bang Theory" and "Mike & Molly." Past sitcom sensations, from "Seinfeld" and "Cheers" to "Friends" and "Frasier," also turned to some form of electronically enhanced giggles.

Thinkin' 'bout watchin' Breaking Bad for the first time ever, even though it'd be confusing as all hell.

Never seen an episode of Breaking Bad or Mad Men.

I would have been open to it, but I get annoyed by people shoving in my face how amazing it is and constantly shouting "Oh you have to watch it!" I'm sure Lost was in that category for most people who never caught an episode.

The wife and I tried Breaking Bad on Netflix. Made it maybe 3 episodes and lost interest.

We just started something else we've never seen, The West Wing, and that's going much better.

Haven't seen Mad Men, either. Or Boardwalk Empire. Fell asleep in the first episode of that.

I'm on Season 3 of Breaking Bad, might as well catch up on that.

When I first heard the name Duck Dynasty, I thought it was some Disney show starring Donald.

I can attach particular names of people I know whose personality/attitude/manner matches each character in Big Bang Theory.
The only exception is Bernadette.

Pretty good. There are about 3 or 4 episodes in seasons 1-3 that just bore the shit out of me, though. HATE the Charlize Theron stuff in season 3 especially.

Any time they pay too much attention to Michael it's bad. I wasn't big on the Netflix season. They did them all single character focused if I recall because they couldn't get everyone together at the same time for long enough. But it's an ensemble show and doesn't work as well when characters are on their own too long.

If I watch Better Call Saul does that count as watching Breaking Bad too? Because I don't want to watch Breaking Bad and I'm already watching Better Call Saul.

I'm on S4E4, which I plan on watching later probably. First one was alright, the George episode was god awful, Lindsay one was decent.
