Breaking Bad The Complete Series (DVD)

I hope that anyone reading the lesser "star" reviews will hopefully read this.... Unfortunately I have been the recipient of a badly produced set of this fabulous series which I had ordered as a Birthday present for a lovely widowed neighbour; it was a very bad let-down as it did nothing but skip,stick and jump on disc after disc. However,I got in touch with Amazon and explained it all; they were wonderfully helpful as they always have been in my own experience on the very rare occasions of my many years of using them,if I've had a query. This mattered more than most as it was to be a special gift for a lovely man who is now alone and I had raved about the series so much; he agreed totally on the little he managed to view but I was determined he should try to get to see it all properly....... After getting in touch with Amazon with a fantastic response from them,I'm now copying my reply back to them in order that some of the details might well help others who may receive something that does not play properly......I hope it helps and please do not lose heart or be disappointed; the series as a show in itself is marvellous and addictive....to have it all on a super set of discs is your right when paying a lot of money to do so. "Well,today I have receieved the replacement order for "Breaking Bad",the complete box-set.... I'm keeping my hopes up high that this will be a successful outcome and I've given the new set to my neighbour and obviously it will take him a little time to get to where he did in order to know that all is well this time. However....I am personally hoping for the best because of a very great difference between the set that arrived today and the one that filled my order of July 11th. The box-set I have returned was very,very markedly different; it was outwardly all dark green and shadows both back and front,just as it should have been but it was all that and nothing else other than the logo of "Breaking Bad" on the front of the box. The lovely-looking set that arrived today was dark green,shadowed and the rear of the box had photo-clips of the series which was totally missing from the first set...added to which,on the front of today's new order,there was both a red and a blue "18" certificate logo in both bottom corners,entirely missing from the first set.....as well as a silver "UV" sticker at the top of the box,again,not on the first set. Therefore,I'm hoping against hope that this new set will prove to be very different as I rather have my suspicions as to my returned order. Such a sad shame as if there are others who have received the badly defective set for a lot of money,they may well be deterred from ordering a replacement not to mention the fact that so many prospective buyers read the reviews before buying and could well decide not to risk ordering. I hope this might help Amazon into investigating whatever may be going on in the selling of a very,very popular series as it is so unfair to disappoint people who look forward to a great many hours viewing. I'm now just hoping I hear only good and happy results from my elderly neighbour...I had to wish him a second HAPPY BIRTHDAY today when I gave him his second set so I do hope what seems to be the "real deal" truly is just that!! So,so very many thanks to you there for such quick,helpful response to everything and what looks to be a very happy outcome and here's hoping I will not be needing to be "breaking bad" news again on this item,lol!"

la serie e bella io l'avevo vista su rai 4 ma dopo la 5 stagione fu interrotta e non fu piu' trasmessa e non ho mai saputo come finisce se walter wite e jessi finiscono male o no ,e finora lo vista fino alla 5 ma mi mancano 4 puntate per completare il capitolo e poi ce la sesta da vedere ,be una serie girata bene che a vinto pure l'oscar come migliore serie tv mai prodotta ,girata benissimo e montata bene con trama facilmente fruibile ,non come quelle porcherie spagnole di 20.000 puntate ,come il segreto esce di scena un personaggio entra uno nuovo ,stai a vedere due che parlano e poi ti ritrovi in un ufficio con un altro senza capire un tubo della storia ,breking bad invece no tutta la storia e chiara e a un filo logico e si puo gardare senza addormentarsi come col segreto e una vita che nun channo un senso e mai lo avranno mai.

premesso che sono un gran fan di Br BA, devo ammettere che questo cofanetto è eccezionale per qualità e quantità dei contenuti. è inclusa anche la puntata speciale di circa due ore di Mythbusters sugli argomenti di Breaking Bad. Senza entrare nel dettaglio della serie, non posso non dare 5 stelle al prodotto anche se mi sarei aspettato un cartonato diverso e più elegante per questa "White Edition", invece di un semplice cartoncino che racchiude i sei contenitori, anche essi in cartone, delle varie stagioni. Per intenderci, la versione con cofanetto verde ed "effetto fumo" Breaking Bad - Serie completa [Edizione: Germania ], sebbene anche essa di cartone pressato, sembra molto più resistente e solida, oltre ad avere un'apertura più elegante. questo è l'unico appunto da fare, ma che non toglie per me alcuna stella per quanto offerto al prezzo proposto da Amazon (circa 30€). Valore aggiunto di questa edizione, le 3 cartoline speciali. Una manna per i collezionisti innamorati di questa serie. Il servizio di Amazon perfetto come sempre, andrebbero fatte delle valutazioni a parte solo per questo. ho ordinato il cofanetto l'11/07 sera e ricevuto il 12/07 alle 12.00! Ai limiti del possibile!

It's extremely difficult to add anything to the high praise already given to this superb series especially considering the nearly 1100 five star reviews on Amazon. However I just had to add my "two pence worth" as I have been just "knocked out" by how good Breaking Bad is. I am a very late, late comer to Breaking Bad as I did not see it when it was broadcast in the UK. I heard all the hype but just let it pass me by really. "Yeah, yeah another cult US series, so what?"..... "So what?"...." So where have you been?" When the complete series came down to a reasonable price I decided to take the plunge and I am so glad I did. I have not completed the whole thing yet but I have "binged" my way to the start of Season 4 now and I have to say it just keeps getting better and better. An incredibly original idea with a huge story arc that never lets up and continues to surprise. How is it possible that we can feel such empathy for someone who gets deeper and deeper into the world of seriously nasty crime. Brilliant writing, superb acting and wonderful production values that's how! Empathy yes, sympathy no and don't think for a minute it glamorises the world of drugs and drug dealing as it most certainly does not, no matter what some reviewers might have you believe. It really does deserve it's "adult" rating though so be warned. As for the presentation of the DVD's I do agree with some of the critics and am disappointed with the cardboard sleeves and flimsy box but this is a minor fault in my opinion. The fabulous quality of the show itself more than compensates. Another minor quibble is with the same frequent boast of many box sets "over 50 hours of bonus features". Hmmm....there is some good stuff there but some of the interviews, commentaries are a little repetitive. Many of the interviews/behind the scenes stuff appears to be the broken up remnants of a much longer documentary and to lump trailers for other shows as a "bonus" is pushing it a bit.

面白すぎるアメリカドラマです。 レンタルビデオ屋さんではジーンズ2までしか借りられないので、購入しました。 リージョン1が観れるDＶDプレーヤー必要だったので、amazonで購入しました。
