Thrice55 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 So I've been in a serious debate about this with a few of my friends and I'm just curious as to what others think. For me personally it's an easy answer and I love the shit outta both shows. I understand they really aren't the same show in anyway, but humor me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3arl Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Breaking Bad hands down. This isn't even a contest. Especially when you use the word "better". Some people might like Dexter more but Breaking Bad is far superior in terms of writing, acting, directing, and other production qualities. whoshotthefrog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Can't fuckin stand Deb on Dexter. Haven't seen breaking bad. Early dexter was solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Poll should be titled "Who is more annoying, Deb or Marie"? Seriously though, Breaking Bad is probably the best show on period, and I actually dig Dexter...if the final season was the Trinity killer it would be a closer call.

Thrice55 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 I personally hate Skylar more than I hate Marie. Rita's absolutely awful too, but Deb's mouth is so incredibly small it weirds me out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hipsterasfolk Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I think Dexter will lose on here since half these chumps don't have premium channels or even cable Netflix posers!.....and the answer is Boardwalk Empire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl_ben Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 UM....Dexter is good, real good....but not even close to Breaking Bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylekrische Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Tried getting into Dexter, I just fucking hate the main character so much. Breaking Bad is top notch all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3arl Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Also, these both might as well be Gossip Girl when compared to Lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchard Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Breaking Bad blows Dexter out of the water. In terms of writing especially. The first four seasons of Dexter are far superior to the last four. Season Three was kind of a turd, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintedinexile Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Going with Breaking Bad, as it has been consistently fantastic. The same cannot be said for Dexter. I absolutely loved season four of Dexter (aside from someone spoiling the end for me), but couldn't even finish the fifth season because of how slow and boring it was, and haven't watched it since.

futures Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I'm the only person in existence that couldn't get into Breaking Bad I guess. I love Dexter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seangj Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Breaking Bad is written better. The Trinity Killer season of Dexter was rad though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You haven't missed anything decent. Like many, I'm just too deep to give up now. I'm the only person in existence that couldn't get into Breaking Bad I guess. I love Dexter. I just got into it last year. Late to the party, but I got hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooks Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 anyone who votes for Dexter is lying to themselves. seangj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrice55 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 Now that I see BB is winning in a land slide victory I don't feel so crazy. And impo, braking bad is better all around... Best acting on TV, best direction, best writing and incredibly unpredictable... To me boardwalk empire is solid, but Game of Thrones is still the best thing on HBO.

Guest Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 braking bad is better all around... THIS MADE ME THINK OF BRAK BEING WALTER WHITE AND HOLY SHIT, THAT WOULD BE THE BEST SHOW EVER. LIKE IMAGINE "THE BRAK SHOW" BUT BRAK SELLS METH. PURE GOLD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviex2shoes Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I feel like with the last few seasons of Breaking Bad that its had way more of the "edge of your seat" moments and more surprising things than on Dexter. I love both shows but I feel like Breaking Bad is way more exciting currently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

achillesstand7 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I like Dexter. I've kept watching it, even though the last few seasons haven't been great. I've gone this far, I might as well see how it ends. Breaking Bad is the best tv show I've ever seen, hands down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Holy shit if anyone votes dexter they really don't know TV. Like I enjoy dexter at times but there's no competition at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
