Am I the only one who's gotten on the Breaking Bad train so late? I started watching this show on Netflix last week and I'm already on Season 5! What an AMAZING show!! No wonder it was nominated for 13 Emmys!
Once I finish the 5th season, I'll be in the market for something new to watch. Already watched House of Cards (another amazing show!) and Orange is the New Black.
Any suggestions? I was thinking about Dexter...
Thanks, Alyse

Breaking Bad ruins all other shows - you can only go backwards from here

I love Mad Men. Very, very different from Breaking Bad of course, but just as clever.

I just finished a marathon of sons of anarchy. I tried breaking bad but only watched 1 episode and was not hooked. I will try it again and give it a few episodes. Orange if the new black I quit after a few episodes, just could not get into it.

I am binge-watching House, MD and I am closing in on Season 8, the last one. I've really really enjoyed it, and now I'm also thinking about what to watch next. Just may be Breaking Bad - see, I'M the last one left to watch it! Oh and I will second the thumbs up on Mad Men, it's fabulous! I'm waiting for the last half of the final season.

Thanks for the suggestions! I really should watch Mad Men, especially since I teach advertising. LOL! Also considering The Good Wife. Any others?

We finished watching BB Thanksgiving weekend. We are on round two right now. Late in Season 2. I am a huge Sopranos fan. IDK if you've ever watched that but it's pretty awesome!

I loved Sons of Anarchy. I also just watched Psych. Much different but entertaining.

We binged watched Breaking Bad right after the series ended... only to find out the last few episodes weren't released by Netflix until late February and we had just missed a marathon a week or two before!
Thought about what to binge watch next and I haven't been able to watch OITNB because I keep getting interrupted. DH is also interested in Game of Thrones.

I had no idea I would love a show about meth so much. Psych is a great show. You can't not love Shawn and Gus.

I just finished breaking bad a couple of months or so ago, and right after it I knew I had to watch something completely different, no drama could ever live up to Breaking Bad, and without spoiling anything it ended so freaking well. Dexter does not, the finale, well the entire last season, was a total letdown. So, I went a totally different route and starred watching Dark Shadows! They don't have all of them though, so I just started Burn Notice. Other shows I have binge watched Psych, Twin Peaks, Firefly, Dollhouse, and Buffy. After Burn Notice I think I am going to rewatch the XFiles. Seriously though, this cannot be said enough, this was the perfect show. Never a bad episode, never a SMH moment, strong writing, strong acting, and such a great ending. I think I want to watch it again!

I don't have any recommendations but DH and I loved Breaking Bad. We were late to the party as well. We just finished the last episode last month. Nothing compares!

Sons of Anarchy or Nurse Jackie.
JustKim - Breaking Bad didn't catch me at first but after a couple of episodes, I was hooked

Same here! I just finished the series yesterday (took about two weeks of binge-watching). I'm actually NOT looking for something new to watch right now because I need to get something done! It was awesome, though.

Fargo was pretty good. Only 1 season, which in a way, is kind of nice. It's On Demand. FX.

Breaking Bad is supposedly the prequel to The Walking Dead. (Internet conspiracy) You should start watching that and let us know!

I second Scandal. Another good show is Suits. I loved Dexter but had to break it up instead of binge watching it because it got to be quite gruesome. Same with Sons of Anarchy. Jax looks a lot like my DH as long as I have my eyes closed, if you know what I mean!

The first couple seasons of Weeds was very good (up until they leave town.) Lillyhammer is good, but you have to pay attention to subtitles. We're watching MI-5 right now and like it. Sons of Anarchy is one of my favorite shows.

Breaking Bad is the best!
Right now I'm watching House M.D. and am enjoying that a lot. Sons of Anarchy is good too.

Most of what has already been suggested and will add Homeland to the list. Just finished Scandal and are going to start House of Cards next.
