The Wire and Breaking Bad, can't go wrong with either one. I would advise watching the first four episodes of either show in one sitting, doing so makes the shows easier to get into, they kind of teach you how to watch them in early going because they have a different pacing than your average television show. Those are two of the top three TV drama's of all time, I'm kind of jealous you get to watch either of those shows for the first time, lucky fucking bastard.

Well, he should start with Breaking Bad and then ease into The Wire.

Could start with either, there is no wrong choice between those two. I actually think he's more likely to prefer The Wire of the two once he's seen both in their entirety, but I personally prefer Breaking Bad in that ultimate hair splitting contest.

Breaking Bad ends poorly. It should have ended with Hank victorious.

The Wire is a very intense show so maybe he should ease into things with Break Bad. I am not saying Breaking Bad isn't intense BUT compared to The Wire (and Omar humming nursery rhymes to beat the shit out of other gang members) that shit is way more intense.

Well there's no point me watching it now. :lol:
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

I wanted Walt to die horribly and Hank to come out on top. Hank was the only protagonist in the entire show.

Sure there is, the way the show starts, if you think Walt is going to make it out alive, you kind of aren't paying attention, he gets diagnosed with terminal lung cancer.
