I've never seen Breaking Bad, I did buy the complete Blu-ray box set a few months ago, I'll start watching it next year. It's really great. I had never seen a minute of it until years after it was finished, then i devoured the boxed sets. Currently watching Better Call Saul, which is a prequel of sorts, and it's great too.

How about a pilot not based on a film for a change? Or, how about a TV series about some writers who want to make an original film or TV series and keep getting Hollywood exec's trying to get them to reboot stuff? They are the good guys and the protagonists, well...
